quote: Both of you are right. Everyone carries their fat deposits in different places. If you can see your abs at 15% then you don't carry your fat in your abdomen, or your measurements are off. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Wiggs - either you have the biggest abs in the world, or you ar seeing the shit you are full of. I have never been over 12% in my life and I can't start to see my abs until about 9% ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

First off you need to have developed abs to see them. If one has more developed abs then the next, he will be able to see them faster. It is important to relize as stated above that everyone doesnt hold their fat in the same areas. ------------------ "Catch a man a fish and he eats for a day, but if you teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime." ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Damn Big Wiggs 15-18% ???? . That's a lot of fat to see a 6 pack. And if I read it correctly you're claiming a 8 pack right now at 15% ??? Where the hell are you holding the fat on your body since it's not on your stomach? Never heard of this in my life , it must be your genetics or something. I work the hell out of my abs and don't see a 6 pack let alone an 8 pack until I hit 10% or below. Later Munzer ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Wiggs, if you can see them at 15% bodyfat, you are one lucky guy. I trained my abs very, very hard and heavy and no way they where showing unless going under 10%. Sure you can see maybe 1 or 2 of the sixpack when bodyfat is higher, but to show them all 6, it is not for everyone. I want to see them relaxed not flexed. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

hes stupid, obviously flexing to make your abs come out is not having abs, having abs is seeing atleast a 6 pac relaxed, when you flex it will make the muscles contract and harder!!!!! So lets be clear, oh yeah check out the new musclemag with chris cormier on the front, there is this girl in there she goes to my gym golds venice and she has the best abs ever, check her out in the back in the venice golds section, they are amazing! that is abs my friend. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Is wiggs a woman? J/K I can see the top abs at 14%, but not well unless flexing. I've never been below 10% and I've never seen my lower abs. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

"no problem when I flex" well what does it look like when you dont flex? a smooth fat belly!!!!! that is not having abs. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Yep, I have a smooth fat belly when I don't flex. I can see the vertical lines but not the horizontal ones.... I might decide to lean up before no-shirt weather. I look way better with some bf in clothes, though. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
