Runner's abs, as I like to call them, are just low bf.

Having really thick, cubed abs that are visible even at 20%+ bf like pic related come from heavy core training exercises. Beltless squats help a lot.

People whose ancestors lived in cold climates store more fat on their belly, for heat conservation. So genetics does play a role, white people need lower bf% to see abs. Ab layout is obviously genetics. Core exercises can also help.

If you don't have any abs muscles you won't be able to see them because they don't exist, that's why skellies don't have them.

So it isn't just bf%. You have to do core-strengthening exercises? Are compound lifts enough or should you be doing ab-isolating exercises?
