How to get defined abs?
August 8th, 2010 | 
Author: I have very strong abs- when I tighten my stomach muscles, they’re rock hard. However, you can’t see the muscle from the surface, you can only feel it. Why is this? Also, what are some exercises I can do to make my abs more visible?
I forgot to put this in the information before, but I am very thin. My BMI is 18.1. I eat very healthy and I exercise every day- walking, horseback riding and lifting things at the barn.

you need low body fat. thats why you see skinny people with 6 packs. do you think they’ve been down the gym doing 100′s of crunches? no. they have low body fat, so their abs show. lower your bodt fat by sticking to a good diet and doing plenty of cardio exercise. otherwise you can sit their doing crunches all day, though if your body fat isnt low, they arent going to show.

because there is fat in the way. not saying that to be mean but it doesnt take much to cover up abs.
1) Try the bicycle workout. This can really help you get abs, fast. Lie on your back (with your whole back all the way on the floor), lift your legs up, and move them as if you are peddling a bicycle. Put your hands behind your head, and every time you move one of your legs toward your face, touch it with your elbow. (So when your left leg comes toward you, touch it with your right elbow.)
2) Go swimming. Doing butterfly (dolphin) kicks on your back is probably the best way to work on your six pack and/or get a flatter stomach. Training hours are usually for two hours and most swim teams have practice five days a week at least.
3) Do cardio as much as possible. Set aside at least one day a week to run a mile. Playing games like tag and hide and go seek outside can even burn calories. Taking your dog for a run is also a convenient way to run, and make sure you drink plenty of water!
4) Most importantly, watch what you eat! Eat plenty of protein to build those ab muscles. Avoid sugar altogether and reduce your caloric intake.
5) Eat small portions of food in regular intervals (Frequency: 5-7 times a day)
6) Do an ab work out for about 30 minutes 2 times a day
