Is doing abs when your bulking and 15 percent pointless?

No. Believe it or not, the abdominals have a functional purpose and training them correctly will help keep you injury free.

if you do box squats and pullups you are working your abs. a lot of compound movements will work the abs.. so if you are doing your compound lifts then you are g2g, if you aren't then you blowing a lot of opportunity to work sub muscles.

having said that i might isolate them once a week for a few sets. I will leave dedicating an entire workout to the abs for the females and the young skinny 8 pack dudes though.

I've found heavy deadlifts work my abs much better than 300 crunches. But I still do a few sets of hanging leg raises as it keeps my lower back supple.
