    I usually do 3 sets of 10-15 reps. It would seem weird doing only 6 reps of an ab exercise. Maybe that's just me...we'll see what others say...

    It does feel weird at first, but try it. It's worth it.

    I'll try that. Should I increase the weights to a point where I'm only able to do 6-8 reps?...in other words go a lot heavier?

    Sorry for stealing the thread. I'm hoping my question will help the OP also.

    Yes.

    Wouldn't make much sense lowering the number of reps while keeping the same weight. It should still be difficult.

    Doesn't have to. It's a personal preference.
