        For abs you have to analyze your problem: if they are not showing enough they are either too small or they are covered in fat. If they are too small you have to train them harder like any other muscle group, once or twice a week with a mix between heavy weight and no weight targeting the lower, upper and side abs. If you have too much fat in your waist area you have to lower calories and do more cardio.

          Besides the good ol' crunches, there are many variations to strengthening your abs, like Russian twists, inverse crunches and so on.

          Oh, and thomas82 is right, you might have rock hard washboard abs, but if you have too much abdominal fat they won't show. You have to lose overall body fat in order for them to 'pop out'. (There's no thing as localized body fat loss)

              do your cardio but mix it up with some crunches and the inverse side crunches. Lifting small weights while running helps lose fat.

                If you don't drop your bodyfat percentage under a certain point, abs will never show up.
                So you should have a caloric deficit diet and a good workout plan involving cardio and abs exercises.

                  In my gym there is a young PT that is shorter than me but is two time larger than me. At the moment though he shows no abs because to become "big" you have to eat a lot and hit hard the gym. There is no doubt that he can crush me at every machine or weight in the gym, but the abs will pop out only when in summer he will stop the "bulking" phase and start cutting the calories.
                  Being so big (big muscles burn much more fat even doing nothing that running every day for someone that has little muscles) he will be ripped in no time after stopping eating rice and bananas 7 times at day…

                      Here are some ab workouts you can do at home:
                      https://g348.com/?i=o3rKCNek4q.jpg

                      Do it Monday, Wednesday, and Friday religiously. Do some cardio before you do the exercises, such as 20 mins running or skipping.  After a month or two, you may want to bump it up to every weekday, with the weekends off (rest is important!). At this point, you may want to start getting into other exercises with your arms and legs - to make everything look a bit more balanced with your RIPPED ABS ;D

                      You're also going to want to cut back high-carb food and drink. A big one is beer - a single 12oz serving averages 10-20g of carbs, which is two slices of white bread. Seek high protein foods such as fish and beef. Replace white bread with wholegrain, white rice with brown rice, and potato with sweet potato (only if you can stand it). If you want a diet plan, just PM me.

                      Remember that the first week is the hardest, and it gets easier. PM me if you need any help 🙂

                              Combination training :High intensity

                              Your AB'S are the center point of your body almost every movement that you make revolves around you abs. Everyone has ABS, you twist,bend-over you lean. ABS can be trained everyday,you should make it a point to excersize them every day for about 10 minuits. Their is no real best work out everyone is different and likes different workouts. What ever work out that you use just make sure that you work out all of you ABS Upper,Lower and sides. ONLY TAKE WORK OUT ADVISE FROM A PHYSICAL THERAPIST their are alot of trainers out their giving bad advice that can hurt you,

                              here is a link to youtube from a good Physical Therapist who know his stuff. ATHLEAN-X™

                                fix your diet first.

                                A general full body workout would work your abs. Doing so many crunches and ab-centric workout will not make your abs pop up. It's all about tracking your food with the right macros, depending on your metabolic rate.
