Abs are not just about body fat!
Abs are the result of:
- lower body fat
- genetics / size & shape, enhanced by exercise
I just had to say something about that. Lowering bodyfat is not always the healthy answer to getting abs (like I’ve read so much of;) some people just don’t have abs with low body fat).
What I’m talking about when I say lower body fat is around 10% bf.

Okay, thats true, if you remove enouh body fat you can see abs. What I was referring to is a level of body fat that was something not seriously unhealthy or even life threatening. Also I was not implying abs are covered in a layer of bone, are too muddled to make them out or that some people don’t actually posses those muscles. Thanks for the helpful, insightful post.
