I've been lurking around here for some time, finally got around to actually signing up. I've got several of Pavel's books- a treasure trove of information. I've been sticking to Naked Warrior the most, if for no other reason that I don't have access to a gym and an irregular work schedule. That, and pistol squats and one-arm pushups have always worked well for me. Combined with tactical pullups and hanging leg raises (yes, I know I shouldn't do more than two exercises in GTG fashion. I'm stubborn that way) I can get by without setting foot in a gym ( much to the relief of my wallet).
Here's my question: in Bulletproof Abs on pages 43-45 Pavel lays out a "state of the art situp" that he labels the scissor situp. This is an older publication, and the situp exercise in question seems to never appear again. In the wilds of the internet the name scissor situp descibes a different exercise. I've done this execise in some periods, and it is a good way to really generate tension in the abs without any equipment. So... comments on this exercise? Should I forget it and stick to hanging leg raises?
