Anyone have good tips for improving ab strength? I know most of the basic crunches and kicking can help. Any other tips would be good. Thanks.

Don't forget to work the low back muscles when working the abs. Back curls are good, dead lifts are great. Also do the obliques with side bends and a dumb bell, start real light (5-10 lbs.) for 3-5 sets of 8.

good point abbax, its about developing your core, not just your stomach.

In judo, we teach that all strength is transferred through the abdomen. When you push, you push with the whole body. If the abs/back are weak, the effect of the push is lessened.
