    Get two types of bars: Dip bars and chin-up/pull-up bars.

    Also focus on table push aways and head shakes when offered food beyond your deficit.

    Cardio, weight training, and proper diet matter. Being at a calorie deficit will bring out your six pack with proper workouts. Taking out all carbs or sugar wont make a differnece if your over your maitenance for calories. Get in a lot of protein, some carbs, and healthy fats and train hard and you should be good.

    To just get a 6pack, all you need is a calorie deficit, but do you want tthe 6 pack to be all you got?

    the abs are muscles too and need volumization concurrently with fatloss... which is a quite difficult balancing act

    In my experience bars do not digest well due to the protein being so compacted. I prefer a liquid or powder for optimum results.
    Whether they have sugar or not depends on the time of day you are eating them in relevance to your workouts, as well as your personal fitness goals

    But whether you eat bars or not is not the road to a six pack, you are asking the wrong questions.

    That's why it's so bad to eat meat, fish and poultry. All those "compacted" proteins will never get digested.

    I just noticed that your profile lists you as a "Personal Trainer/Author". Given the content of your post, this saddened me.

    Please spend a bit of time reading the stickies and learning the basics about nutrition. That way, you can be of more help to your clients, as opposed to spouting total nonsense.
