your abs need rest just as every other muscle group. sounds like you are overtraining, or pushing the envelope already. Bottom line to getting the 6 pack is body fat %.
How are you training them btw? Weights, reps, etc...?

your abs are just like any other muscle. too much training will overtrain and will hinder your gains.


would you trains chest 5days in a row???

lose the body fat to see the abs.
abs, calves, and forearms can be worked more often IMO.
abs, I would go 2-3 times a week
