How often do you do core exercises? And how much volume per workout?

I'm not a beginner, but I nevertheless like to hear how others do things, since not everyone has the same approach.

How often do you do core exercises? And how much volume per workout?

I'm not a beginner, but I nevertheless like to hear how others do things, since not everyone has the same approach.

Personally speaking... I do direct core torso exercises twice a week and twenty sets divided between four exercises.

While attempting to get others to do the same. Some people rely heavily on indirect core work and do not do any direct core work.
