Ab Ripper 100 is a great beginner program that is simple, and not very long - but very effective at jump starting those abs into action. Simple means 10 exercises of 10 reps each. You will recognize some of the exercises, while others may be new to you. Tony targets upper, middle, and lower abs systematically for maximum effectiveness. There is very little rest time between exercises. Each exercise is modeled(many with modifications) and key points are explained. Depending on your level of fitness, you may not be able to complete all 10 reps of every exercise, but making that your goal should get you there rather quickly.
Ab Ripper 200 uses the same exercises from Ab Ripper 100, except now there are 20 reps per exercise (again, very simple). Doubling the reps to 20 might not seem like much, but even Traci Morrow, who appears on the P90X+ DVD, has mentioned to me that she still is challenged by Ab Ripper 200.
Overall, the ab programs that come with Power 90 are great for the beginner through advanced athlete. Whether you are just starting out and looking for something simple, or you are a seasoned workout buff looking for more of a challenge and/or a change of pace - the Ab Ripper programs will do the trick.
