Are crunches the best method to get abs?

Ok, so cruches, done the right way build muscle well. The best and most proper crunch, is like a sit up, but very different. Lay on your back completely flat, put your hands behind your head, and SLOWLY lift to about half way up, so that your shoulders lift off the ground completely. This will build muscle, mostly upper abs, lower abs are tougher, try that same approach, but give yoursefl an incline, so that your feet are above your head. But as much muscle as you may build, it wont do anything until you get rid of the fat over your abs. There is no way to eliminate fat in an isolated part of your body, crunches will eliminate fat yes, barely tho. Barely at all. They build muscle, not burn fat. So run, and run, and run. its the best way and almost the only way. Its very effective, not so fun, but very effective. Once your body fat percent is near single digits, and you have very little fat over your abs, those crunches will really pay off, and youll see result, if your diligent, within a month.
Usher claims to have gotten his washboard abs by doing 300-400 crunches/situps a day! wow!
Also eat a balanced diet, the junk foods, fast foods, and sugar drinks will prolong your success. Eat less of these things and include more fresh fruits, veggies, and water. Also help the digestive process buy chewing your food longer.
crunches are always good, one thing that really helps to workout your core muscle is to after you run to get into pushup formation but lean on your forearms instead and keep yourself up and straight like a line for 1 minute and do it about 5 times, for crunches, if you really want to see results i suggest 300 a day, its alot of work but break up your reps into 50.
yeah
Try laying under a chair and holding the legs and lift your legs up repeatedly. Do lots of those and regular crunches. It works
Basically yes... but. If you have a layer of fat covering your abs, there is no way you will be able to see them.
So firstly you need cardio if you need to burn fat, then heaps of crunches for sure
