I usually know how to spell, but for some reason, I don't know how to spell today.

Am I spelling 'cliche' right?

I mean it looks right, but I don't know. Help? (link)
"Cliche" is a worn out saying or stereotype, while "clique" is a group of people.


I do cardio 5-6 days a week, but I'm interested in starting weight training/strength training. I have a few questions about this:
1) I am doing abs/arms tuesdays, thursdays, and saturdays, and lower body mondays, wednesdays, and fridays. Can I do these all on one days (ex. monday, wednesday, friday?)

2) Can I do abs every day? I have heard mixed opinions. Some people say it's ok to do abs everyday and others say that because abs are a muscle, I should only work them 3 days a week.

3) Do I need to be doing alot of different sorts of weights to see work (ex. Lots of different machines for arms and free weights, etc) or will just a few different exercises show results?
THANKS!!! (link)
Its better to do them on different days, not all on one because there are certain crossover muscles. For example, bench pressing is mostly for triceps and pectorals but if you're biceps are sore, you won't get the most out of the exercise.
Personal trainers I have talked to say that abs should be done everyday.
You should do many kinds of exercises. Different exercises will get different parts of the muscles. For example, standing curls get more of the lower and the middle part of the biceps while preacher curls get more of the top part of the biceps. Also, different exercises will keep working from getting old.
