whats up with my six pack abs?
i’ve been workin at this for over 2 years now. i can my abs are like rocks to touch them but when i look it just looks flat. they show up if i flex my abs but even then they don’t look like i would like them to. I used to be fat i was about 220 now im at 170lbs with a muscular build. did the rapid weight loss leave excess skin so i can’t get abs or what? or can i get them only its going to be more years and have to build them the size of bricks?
Mostly it will depend on how developed the abs are, but It can be from two causes………(1) the skin is still stretched and is not tight enough to show the full 6 pack, or: (2) there is still a layer of fat that is covering the muscle but under the skin. It is hard to say which without seeing the abs but if you can pinch a bit of skin and not have much tension it is probably the skin is still loose. You deserve a lot of credit for loosing all the weight and working out, so good job. Keep it up and do some things to your skin to keep it soft and pliable like used moisurizer or skin cream.
