Work your abs everyday. Just like every muscle parts, your abs need rest and recovery. Be consistent for that three to five days a week of abdominal training and you’ll get that sleek abs.

Take half hour of ab workout. I think that’s too long to train your abs. About five minutes of ab training each time is effective. Remember, think about quality over quantity.

Slow crunches make you strong. I do kickboxing and such training isn’t in slow-motion but I get effective lean ab work.

Train abs at the end of workout. Its really doesn’t matter whether at the beginning or at the end, as long as consistency is practice then go ahead. Don’t forget to warm-up first just to prevent any types of injuries.

Pilates can't get you six-packs. If you practice regularly, combining with proper diet and cardio, then absolutely it can give you a six-pack. One thing, its not a guarantee to have such pack, this depends on your muscle tone, or how lean you are, or how long your torso is and also how tall you are.

Without weight machine, you won’t get firm. Wrong, I’ve read an article about how Bruce Lee get those muscles without touching a single machine. Although, women love to stick to the floor, we also get those lean muscles just like Bruce has – ok not too bulgy.
