no. abs are different than other muscles. sometimes when you over work the muscle it can hurt more than help... abs are easily overworked or at least that's what i heard.

As a general rule, if you are working out abs with resistance, then they should not be worked any more than another part of the body (once a week for some, twice a week for others). If you only do standard crunches, sit-ups, leg lifts, etc. but without resistance than you can work them almost everyday. But you will not have as good results and personally I never work any muscle that is sore. I'm a big believer in allowing for recovery.
