Unfortunately this depends on how far you have to go, but lots and lots of crunches, body twists, walking, swimming, etc, will help and make it possible. If you follow an exercise tape for abs and do it every day I can tell you there will be a noticable difference at the end of a month, but it is hard work.

you can work your butt off building ab muscles, but they will never surface if you dont lose the layer of fat covering them up. do cardio for at least 30 min 3 times a week. that means meeting or exceeding your heart rate goal the entire 30 minutes

okay well first of all it helps to be an athlete. i am constantly running and jogging doing crunches and pullups playing basketball soccer volleyball and track. if you dont like to move, you are lazy and maybe you dont deserve abs. just do situps and eat healthy. if you cant do that then forgets your abs live with your flab!

diet is huge. they are there you just have to shed the pounds. Even if you exercise your abs 24 hours a day unless you are dieting they will never fully show their potetntial.
