    body fat %

    well i guess i was wrong. i dont have 19%bf, that was way high, i'm 13.6.... i was wondering for most people when their 6pack really begins to show good if you have decent abs?? just want some peoples opinions and personal experience on the subject!

    to have a good looking stomatch i would say 10%. But to have a full set of abs takes about 7-8%.

    semi

    like swole said, semi flexed....what are all your bf%'s when you can see them, i'm at 13.6% roughly, and i can start to see mine, but theres definately a huge layer of pudge covering them. Now that i got my diet cleaned up it'll be gone in 4 weeks though!


    so what's all your personaly experience on this?

    I roughly measured my bf% with some calipers and got 15-17% and I could see my abs somewhat. Now that I have dieted for two and a half weeks theyre startin to show up a lot better and Ive only lost 2-3lbs. My layer of insulation is getting slightly thinner.

    it depends on how much you work them also

    genetics actually have a big part in abs also

    ive never had abs since i was 13 and i even got down to 8 percent without fully riped abs!! i was pissed but its just because im very lax when it comes to abs i started working them out more and hopefully in 6 months or so when i drop back to eight they will be ripped.
