Good question. I could name ten of my friends at the gym that do absolutely NOTHING for them and they look like little dinner rolls. I used to always watch that show "Work Out" with Jackie (something) because it mainly featured lesbians making out lol. Anyways, they've always said that they also don't do not a single crunch for their abs. Instead, with all the working out they do, they focus on keeping their core hard/contracted and that's all it takes... Of course dieting down to 8% presents them well.

IMO high rep crunches are a waste of time. I don't like machines that much either. For me it's either banded abs pulldowns with a couple of light resistance bands OR standing crunches using the pulldown machine. Will it give me a thicker waist?.. Oh that's right, I'll take "500+ deadlift/squat" for $500 please Alex!
