How do you get ripped with a short cardio and abs workout?

In: Exercise, Fitness, Cardio Exercise [Edit categories]

Answer:

Unless you already have a relatively low percentage of body fat, that will not work. The most effective short cardio is interval training, and you should work your whole core instead of only abs. The key is to drop your percentage of body fat. If you are male, get it down to 8% or lower.
