how'd you get your abs and obliques?

i was wondering because i was checking my gorgeous self out in the mirror the other day, only to realize that my left oblique is noticably larger than my right oblique....which looks a little odd......tips on fixing it?

tips on ab work in general?

thanks to all who reply

One solution to the abs: crunches and lots of them. Do exercises for all three major zones of the abdominals. Rinse. Repeat. Rinse. Repeat.

Low BF% gets you abs. Resistance training then gets you better looking ones. There's no trick or secret to it whatsoever.

High weight would cause big ripple-y abs, which can be interpreted as bad sometimes. Nicely toned abs would be acceptable.

What kinda exercises should I do to increase the size of my abs?

Is it better to lose more body fat first, or to gain more size first?

first you bulk which means you build up muscle, then you cut which means you lose bodyfat. This equates to a good looking body if done right.

So what kinda exercises would be best for increasing the size of my abs? I also need information in sets and reps cuz I'm like a total noob when it comes to stuff like this.

Crunches were mentioned; is that essentially the best way? How long am I suppose to hold them for, and how many times, sets, reps, resting periods....yeah...

Because you promote fitness myths.
