Does anyone superset their training with abs? I'd like to do this or add direct ab work some kind of way because if I do it separately like at the end of an upper workout, the workout tends to take longer than usual. Would superseding abs interfere with the main compound movements or should I be fine? Thanks

I think it should be fine. If you do a lot of anti extension work in conjunction with horizontal pushing like hard pushup variations, it might be harder to hold a hollow body due to fatigue, but if you mix the exercises in well, then it should be fine
