What is a good ab workout

Muscle definition comes when body fat % is low enough to expose muscle. Lift heavy (doesn't much matter what you do as long as it's heavy, but compound lifts will give you the most bang for your lifting dollar), get enough protein, stay in a modest calorie deficit and be patient.

But more specifically to your questions... deadlifts and single-leg deadlifts are the best ab exercises I've ever done.

Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym.

Abs are not made in the kitchen, if that was the case every thin person you know would have a 6-pack. Abs are made in the gym. As far as the question, weighted ab exercises are the key, they will work far better than any exercise that you are only using your body weight as resistance.

absolutely disagree.. every person I know would NOT have abs (and they dont) because they do NOT have the eating habits required to get their body fat low enough. I dont care how many crunches you do, or squats, etc.. if you carry too much body fat, you will not have visable abs (btw. i do agree that compound exercises like squatting, deadlifts and Oly lifting are GREAT for working the core)
BTW. THIN does not necessarily equate to LEAN. there are quite thin people that actually have high body fat percentages and little muscle mass.

LMAO! The majority of our population do not have the genetics (including myself) to have a 6 -pack regardless of how thin they get or how low their BF. % becomes from eating clean in the kitchen. You cannot expose what isnt there. If I didnt do weighted ab exercises. pull ups and chin ups etc. during my weight loss I would not have visible abs even though I got down to 8% BF. ( not that you need to get that low to have visable abs) I did not have visible abs at 18-25 years old and neither did most of my friends who were in the best shape of my/their lives and had very low BF %. Because we didn not have the genetics to have 6-packs and did little to none activities to build our abs. Now please tell me what foods I can eat in the kitchen that willl cause my abs to grow?

so you are saying that if a fat guy does weighted ab exercises that he will have a six pack? Just kidding of course, I don't seriously think anyone here is ignorant enough to believe that statement.

UGH!! Let me explain it too you like this, Between 18 and 25 years old I was in great shape because all I did was play sports, especially basketball, and had very little BF. infact I could eat and drink whatever I wanted too ( man I miss those days) I weighed around 180 lbs with a 30 inch waist but never had any visiable abs. Then as I got older, I gained alot of weight, at 41 years of age I started exercising and eating clean, drank a total of 12 beers over the 13 months it took me to lose 83 lbs and for the first time in my life had a 6-pack. But not because the kitchen built my abs but because the gym built them. Like most people, genetics did not bless with me with visible abs, so no matter how clean I ate in the kitchen while cutting down to 8 % bf I would not have a 6 pack today if I did not do weighted ab exercises, pullups and chinups etc. There are so few people that their abs naturally developed enough to have a 6 -pack without working them. regardless of how thin they are how low their BF % is or how clean they eat in the kitchen. You cant uncover something that isnt there to begin with, regardless of how clean you eat in the kitchen.
