i bet some ppl on this board are truely sick,,,others just pretend to be....im bulking now,,but i will be back to haveing definition in my midsection after the holidays(fat fuck now)
Depends upon the time of the year. I am a natty so when I bulk I eat a lot and get some fat. I never get a gut but you cannot see my abs. I am going to the Keys in January so I am starting to diet down tomorrow, which I am not very happy about cause I love stuffing my face every 3 hour while I am bulking up and switching to the smaller portions every three hours makes me a little cranky, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
I think abs are as much a genetic thing as anything else. I can eat clean and run forever and will still probably never see them. But I haven't had a gut in years so I can live with that.
hmm well it wasn't until 2 months ago when i started doing ab work with 5X25 alternating crunches and rev crunches they for the first time started to develope within 3 weeks. And no matter how much i eat or bulk they always stay there. I'm not complaining but there is downsides to being an ecto-meso of course. Unless i start juicin then they will really come out.
another funny thing i notice is that the shape of the abs seem to be genetic. I mean look at Ronnie Colemans (4 pack with an odd shape to the top abs) Vs. Arnolds(6 pack) Vs. Lee Priest(looks like an 8 pack has that indent in the middle) Vs. Lee Haney (his left and right abs are split by like an inch). My guess is that these shapes and designs are all genetic. but with the proper training im assuming you can bring them out and see what you have. but it's interesting to see the different types.
