I'm 6'5 skinnyfat and have cut down to 196 but don't have visible abs, should I keep going or just give up and start bulking?

>>41900335
start lifting, m8

>>41901036
I do, I have been for a year, but progress is slow because I've been lifting on a cut or at maintence and I'm also just bad at pushing myself during lifts.

do i really need to start doing abdominal isolations? they're so fucking boring

Your progress is slow because you lift baby weights. If you can do 12 reps, the weight is way too light.

This has nothing to do with lifting on a cut.

It's better than being fat

I am lifting baby weights but it's not for lack of trying, I can only barely manage 3x5 of all of the following:
95 lb ohp
155 lb bp
205 lb squat

I also do 1x7 or 8 of a 2 pl8 deadlift but I think my form is shit. Maybe I just need to jump on creatine.

Meh. Some days my abs have definition and some days they don't. I think milk is the culprit, but I love having it with my coffee...

>>41902307
Asymmetrical abs are asthetic in thier own right. Don't worry though, you'll never get to find out since you're actually afraid of being fit.

Uh your stomach is pretty flat dude stop being mentally ill with this body dysmorphia

Just started my cut yesterday. Hopefully in 2 months or so they'll be constantly visible. When I flex I have nice abs and obliques.

>>41900258

Started cutting 2 months ago went from 23% high to 16% high and that was 3 weeks ago...

>>41902524
Stats and routine? 10/10 bod

>>41902524
dun matter you're a greek god anyway

Question
Does everyone start with small abs like these?>>41903474
and after a while you get to get big abs like these?>>41900470

>>41904688
no, abdominal insertions are purely genetic so you can't change the shape of them. The first guy just has bad ab genetics, 2nd guy has fuller abs, i bet my left nut his abs looked decent even before he started working out

>>41904777
Insertions doesn't mean volume you idiot

bros with abs... is it all about the diet. im 6'2 205 with about 15% body fat and cant seem to get lower prolly bc of diet. do have to give up alcohol and starve a little

>>41905256

Keep cutting, lift as much as possible.

>>41902709

Your chest needs to be little bigger to balance it out I think. Your stomach is pretty flat though

And another photo, a little bit older.

Think of starting the juice and competing on men's physique or maybe trying to get a job as a fitness model or youtube "natty".

Do I have any chances?

>>41900470
nise

>>41906967
You'd be mediocre by bb standards. There's always someone who has better genetics, who responds better to hormones, that also has been blasting for years already, and has perfect symmetry etc. The kind of people who win shows have both the genetics to accept the hormones and the dedication to eat the cleanest, suffer through side effects, and cut the hardest.

But if nothing else in life really gives you any meaning, by all means compete and start roiding, you've got nothing to lose. You have a lot of catching up to do to so get to it.

For fitness fake natty youtuber yeah you'd be perfect. Just don't cut too much or become too vascular and you can claim natty.

>lift as much as possible
Any program suggestions? Doing pic related right now, which is just three days a week, but have basically stalled or regressed on everything except ohp and pull ups.

>>41907509
I should add that I don't even care about abs as much as I just want to not look like the most DYEL fucker in the universe after lifting for a year.

>>41906556
Thank you

>>41907430
5'7. Gains on easy mode.

Are squats and weighted crunches enough to get nice abs? Tbh I might already have a six pack under all this belly fat

any diets tips or examples to get those abs poppin

>>41902307
that's your biggest fear? really?

desu asymmetric abs are kinda cool

>>41907980

The most crucial thing for six pack abs is low body fat. You can achieve low body fat by adjusting your diet. Even if you do 1000 crunches a day, you wont be able to see your six pack if you have belly fat.

But since you are asking for abs training, I would suggest few sets of weighted crunches, hanging leg raises and fingers to heels.

As you said, abs work also when doing squats, deadlifts and most basic exercises.

>>41900258
maybe next year

currently cutting and I look gr8 but I fell for the "u dont need to do any abs" meme so my core is trash

>>41908000

High protein
Lots of veggies
Moderate fat
Low carb

Avoid sugar and grains like the devil.

Also HITT training once or twice per week, and heavy lifting
