Workout question. Options

I know this is a car forum, but judging by the amount of replies in the "protein shake" thread, it's apparent that there are a lot of people on here that like to go to the gym. I just want to know what's a good routine/exercise that works the lower abs? Normally, I use 2 leather "loops" (each arm through one) that are hanging from a pullup bar. While hanging in the air, I pull my legs straight up to my chest as far as I can. I also do a twisting rep, where I'll bring my legs sidways up to my chest to help work the "side" abdominal muscles. This workout has been really helpful, and I know have an "8-pack" because of it, but my upper abdominal muscles are considerably more defined than the lower ones. Does anybody know a good routine that works the lower abs?

if you have a fat midsection ... and want to lose the mass around it.. sit up's won't do ship for you .... just run... run ... run up stairs ... run up and down hills... run like forest.. just run... now if you have like 5 percent body fat.. once you get to that point... fook sit up or hanging from rings ... get a weight vest .. and frun up stairs and hills... and while your doing that.. tighting your stomach with every other stop ... and when you sit in a chair .. tighting you stomach for 10 seconds then relase ... wait 3 seconds then repeat .. till you can't do it anymore.... this is how i got my mid section cut up .. never did a sit up in my life ..

exactly RUN , also ive gotten into the habit of almost subconsciously tightening my abs when im walking anywhere, its good for your posture. just wondering, any other runners on here? i LOVE running... hell id rather lose my celica than break a leg.
