Flat Abs!?

Options
I am looking for those go to ab exercises for "washboard" abs. I know a good portion of it is done through diet too, so please name some food to eat and/or avoid during this process. I have a small "spare tire" hanging on and want to kick it! PLEASE HELP!

    Abs are made in the kitchen
    Calorie deficit is what does it. No specific food will produce abs :flowerforyou:

    I wish there was an easy way to get sculpted abs!! But I think it is the hardest area to get defined muscle like a 6 pack or washboard abs!!!! From what I have read diet is key to get rid of the spare tire. You can have super ab muscles but it will never been seen with the extra girth :/

    foods to eat : ones you like
    foods to avoid: ones you don't like

    not being a ****, but too often people get caught up on food choices when really meet your macros with the foods you like and you will change you body composition

    My Trainer, who has fabulous abs, swears by his mantra...Cardio, Cardio & more Cardio! I have noticed a big difference in my abs since I bumped up my cardio to 6 days a week.

    So in other words you're just in a bigger calorie deficit.
