How long to get decent abs?

BODYBUILDING SUPPLEMENTS
High Quality Supplements For Bodybuilders and Athletes. www.ironmaglabs.com
Hey I have been doing heavily weighted cable crunches, weighted decline situps and russian twists + planks and other stability stuff for 2 months now.

I was wondering; how long goes it take to get a decently muscly stomach?

I know i have to diet to show it, but how long does it take to get a stomach muslcy enough to show my abs through with a reasonable amount of b/f?

4 months? 6 months ? 1 year?

THANKS!

No amount of work will do that effectively, you need to cut off the fat covering the muscles.

If you have a box, it doesn't matter what's in the box, you still can't see through the damn box without removing it.

You sound like you have a real grudge against boxes...

Good analogy though

Prince, is it possible to put all threads and posters with the word 'abs' on ignore?

Or maybe when somebody posts a thread with "abs" in it, they are re-directed to a search result page with all the threads with abs and core in the title.

Unless the box is made of a clear material.

Honestly, though, great analogy.
