Wash board abs here I come. I'm going to bang out a few situps at my bed. Pretty soon I'll be doing my wash on my abs!

I do, but I'm not posting pics for you to fantasuze over, thank you very much :) I'm naturally skinny, with bodt fat in the 8-10% range, and I do 150 crunches a couple times a well, as well as pushups and 40 miles of running.

I actually have a pretty nice ab workout, if you're interested. t's what my track coach made us do, and it's a killer.

1 minute of jack-knives (lay on your back, with arms extended over head, bring armks and legs up to meet in the middle above you)
1 minute of crunches
1 minute of right-side crunches
1 minute of left-side crunches
1 minute of leg-lifts (raise your feet 6" above the floor and keep them there)
1 minute of bicycles (move your feet in circles like pedaling a bike)
1 minute of "straight-up" sit-ups (try to go up towards the ceiling as opposed to up and forward towards your knees)
1 minute of sciccor-kicks

repeat 4 more times :) do that 3-4 times a week and you'll have great abs in no time

What's a good amt. of cardio to start losing fat? I'm naturally skinny but I'm starting to get some flab on my stomach ... that's the only part where the fat is going =)

20mins. of non stop running at a good pace every other day ... is that okay or do I need more ?

My abs are kind of...covered, right now. well, slightly. Much like others here, I'm naturally skinny, but with all the pop and booze that I drink combined with my current lack of exercise, I have a little strip of right right on top of the 3rd set. poo.

Working on it though, shouldn't take too long.

Exactly, drop your BF% to 9-10% or lower and you will see them.

running is good for cardio work out however above a certain heart bpm you dont burn fat - so a brisk walk might be more effective than a full out run......

Those jack-knives (I called them v-sits) are killer. Here's another good one to do:

Start of with a leg lift... your feet a few inches off the ground. Then, do a situp as you bring your left knee up to meet your right shoulder (gotta turn your torso as you go up), back down to leg lift position, then situp with right knee to left shoulder. Your feet should never touch the ground. These are great ones to do.

I used to do 1000 crunches in a row (took 45-50 minutes to do), then 50 of these rugby situps I called them, then 50 leg extensions (knees to your chest then out to leg lift position, then back). I had great abs then... still do I guess, they're just covered with a nice warm beer blanket :)

Here is a somewhat washboard abs pic of me from the beach taken a few days ago :p

Keep in mind, I haven't done cardio for over 2 months now and they are not nearly as cut as they used to be, but I am trying to gain weight all around right now so I cut out cardio. However I still do my abs workout as the normal one.
