Make nice abs progress if i train them every other day. During holidays i might even work them 2 on 1 off and include higher reps and broomstick twists to actually LOSE some musclesize of the abs, cause too muscular abs make your waistline thicker even without lovehandles.....

Twice a week. Only a couple of sets each time.

If you're concerned about shedding fat there, it's all about diet and cardio

while boxing it is routine to do them every day since it focused on conditioning one to take a pungh to the midsection...

While weightlifting I do them once or twice a week...
