I'm quite skinny, not much fat but not much muscle either.
Do you eat anything inparticular, or just do the crunch and hold things you said. Also, is it 6 reps of a heavy weight you can just do 6 of, no more and then another set and another etc.
Also, how many of the crunch and holds you do?

hi
Thats not a problem! Yep, I eat quite a bit. Always have pasta,steak. This gives me carbohydrates and protein which is essential for building muscle! Well for new people to bodybuilding I recommend eating what you currently eat as you're not going to need to feed your muscle quite as much as bigger people do. Well what I do is - 6 reps = 1 set and I do 5 sets all together, 2 barbell curls, 3 dumbell curls (FOR BICEPS) Thats just how I do it, you can rotate the routine to fit your standardsI'm quite skinny, not much fat but not much muscle either.

thnxxxxI hold the position for 1 minute.
The crunch position will put stress on your back I would suggest not doing it, it will cause a stress fracture in the lower back believe it hurts i've had one, anything that strains the back should be avoided.
Unless you are doing the weights correctly I would suggest getting advice first, from someone who knows not someone who thinks he knows...
Thats why you do the back routine thats posted on that site:eusa_clap No, if you put strain on your body sometimes it can be good, all you're doing with the crunch is holding that position, if anything it will strengthen your back. You must do a little back warm up before or it will hurt and feel uncomfortable.The crunch position will put stress on your back I would suggest not doing it, it will cause a stress fracture in the lower back believe it hurts i've had one, anything that strains the back should be avoided.

Getting advice from who? A doctor who knows nothing about doing weights just your muscles? And I don't know what I'm doing, thats why I have 15 inch biceps isn't it:rolleyes:
QFT. As I keep saying this routine will make your muscles work harder than they have ever worked before. This routine is for those people who want to get; mass, strength, definition, tone, all in one go. This routine isn't for those who are fixed that 100 reps are key or who don't like hard work.
You do 6 reps per set right? So how much % of maximum weight do you lift? Like what percentage of the maximum weight, you could do dumbell curls with, do you do? And on dumbell curls what weight do you actually lift?QFT. As I keep saying this routine will make your muscles work harder than they have ever worked before.

I wouldn't recommend 100 reps atall, because in my opinion it's pointless. However for a 'week' in every month or so it would be good to change how many reps you do per set, or even "pumping to failure" just to change the workout for a week.
