shit man all i can see is the upper two by my chest. i cant get the lower ones to come out.

I have the upper 4 faintly and some nice love handles to accent them.

thanks Vortexx for the barbell pullover suggestion. i'm gonna try em out for a while and report back in a month or so..... hopefully i can prove all you naysayers wrong, i mean, it's a muscle, so it can be used and forced to grow, i don't think genetics is a valid excuse. we shall see

LOL


Good luck in your endeavor to change your physiology

Aren't the abdominals one large muscle, with some sort of sheath or fibre creating the illusion of multiple muscles(the indents and shit)? If that is the case, which i believe it is, I think you'll have a pretty tough time trying to hammer just the upmost portion.I'd like to be proven wrong though!

I got the upper two...but the rest is a work in progress. Just started doing heavy weighted declines today. 40lb db for 15, 12, 10 reps...along with my other ab work. Gotta also get rid of the beer blanket covering everything up!

jobu.... to get my sixpack i had to go a lot heavier than 40lb... i was doin that for a while and got nothing out of it. currently i'm at 120lbs decline (holding 2 60lb DBs) and my abs are just now poppin' out. in my experience you just gotta increase the weight a lot.

well

alot of gymnasts can bring out more abdominal muscles.
Alot of gymnasts go from a 6 to 10 pack over their carreer. This is of course wtih alot of hard training.

Damn...a buck twenty? Are you doing declines? I hand at about 45deg and put the db as high on my chest as possible...damn near cross my neck. Like I said...just started these, but I do 3 sets of 15 with the 40lb db. I'll probably up the weight and drop the reps soon.
