I weight train 3x a week. However, I hate hate hate cardio with a fiery passion. Will I get abs if I just keep up with my deficit and weight training? Or is so much cardio really necessary? Anyone gets abs without cardio?

Wouldn't that much cardio put her in a bigger calorie deficit, helping her reach her goals faster granted she is accurate with food logging? Maybe that's what her trainer is talking about.
