I want to get abs but i also want to add some mass ...
How should i go about my diet then? My stomach isnt big its just soft and a little flabby i been doing abs a lot latley hoping to tighten it up. My problem is I want to add a little more mass so i want to eat more but im scared ill make my stomach bigger which will hinder my abs. The weird thing is i am very active between going to the gym walking 40 minutes everyday and working a job that has me lifting and running around all day but i cant seem to tighten my belly and i know i need to eat more to have enought enrgy to go about my days.
I really dont understand wny my belly is still soft anyone have an idea why?> I dont work out abs much only latly i have but could that be the main reason why its so soft and a little flabby???

Probably cuz you have too much body fat. Think of it this way, if you have fat on your belly you aren't going to see abs. SO what makes you think training them will make them appear? If you squat and deadlift, your abs should be getting worked hard anyway. If you wanna add mass, you cant do it without adding a little bit of fat. So why don't you cut down to 8-10% body fat, then bulk to about 13-15% then cut down and go from there? Sure its impressive to see a big strong guy, but isn't it more impressive to see a ripped strong guy.
