You need to be healthy and let your body develop properly, so you have a strong beautiful body to take you through the rest of your life. My question back to you is why do you want one? because you see them in magazines? Darlin' most of those girls have their photos retouched and don't even actually look like that. Look around at real people, you rarely ever see girls with 6 pack abs. You don't need them, and having them isn't going to make you sexier, more attractive, healthier or happier. Develop a strong sense of self esteem and a healthy body, those are more important than tight abs.

 Diet plays a huge role in gaining a six pack. Eat heathily, and excersise regularly. I train quite a fair bit and i find protein shakes before and after workouts quite good, and no carborhydrates after 7 at night. If your going to eat late on make sure its more protein based.
Mail me if you need any further training tips.
All the best & good luck x

But girls can definitely improve their abs by exercizing the same way men do. Sit-ups and leg lifts. A lot of them. So many, you may become bored and burned out. But if you just want to stay in good shape and tone, you don't have to kill yourself for hours every day. Btw, a little "softness" around the edges is what most guys like in the opposite gender.
