do the abdominals develop the most around the growth spurts?

not a bad answer, and not entirely wrong, as it is because of testosterone, but because testosterone elicits growth hormone in periods of growth, which causes you to lose "baby fat". Diet and exercise pending, of course.

It's not during the growth spurt. It's because you go through puberty and have increased testosterone levels and grow muscle more easily.
