For the most part this is true. Most people try in vain to develope abs and will never see them cause they are covered in fat. Allot of males hold fat in that region (self included). Even though you look lean everywhere else the abs won't come out until your b/f is low.

Precontest I do abs ED in the am with my cardio. Offseason I usually only hit them 2x per week.
