well luck for you "six packs" are mostly resulted from diet, and have little to do with exercise.

I would guess trying different types of situps would be good, as would hanging from something with your hands/ elbows and bringing your feet up to your chest.

Watch what you eat, and do various excercices so you hit the entire abdominal region. I would type more but I'm busy right now.

A six pack comes from having low enough body fat % to have your muscle show through. Thus, in order to get a six pack, you'll have to lose body fat, working out the muscle wont do anything if it's covered in fat. The easiest way to lose body fat is to go on a restricted diet, so you have less calories than matinence.

Cutting out carbs and fat > 1000000000 sit-ups

SOURCE?!


lol, jk. True, abs ARE made in the kitchen, but I think if your exaggeration was looked at literally, it would be found completely untrue.


and anyway, anyone else call troll on the OP? I mean, who the fuck doesn't know how to keep a 6 pack without a gym? I always thought the "ab"-focused machines were for women who wanted to "feel good" by using "weight".

And if you, at your club, just did weighted (not sure of "real" names...) trunk twists, etc., a good 45lb weight wouldn't be very expensive at a yard sale.



Anyway, for some real advice: Listen to what everyone has said (watch what you eat, do full-ab exercises), but also be sure to get weighted workouts in for them, if you haven't been already.


P.S.- Someone posted in a thread a little bit back that all ab workouts get all parts (lower middle top). Obviously, the obliques wouldn't be included, but does anyone know if there is any truth behind that?

A 6-pack also involves large ab muscles. Ever see a 6-pack on those starving african kids? They have low enough BF%, but no ab muscles.

Or because they have a low body fat from starving to death rather then exercise.

truth.. your body devours the muscle first then the fat.
