Shredding the Abs - Need Pro Advice
ad
I am very fit at 225lbs, 6'2", and 6% BF. My resting daily metabolic caloric requirement is 2850. I suspect that my adrenal insufficiency meds are causing my abdomen to bloat hence it is difficult to reveal the work I have put in. I am looking for some advice on exercise and diet targeted to shred my abs. Let the pain begin.

If ur at 2,850 intake a day now. Start slowly tweaking that down and make adjustments to your nutrition man. U have to find what works for u and your body nutrition wise. Nutrition is the only way to a nice defined mid section. There's no short cuts or easy way about it. Feed your baody what it needs. Good luck man
My calorie intake requirement just do nothing is 2850. Regardless, you are right. I will slowly drop my calories while increasing how often I eat plus add more cardio.
No where close to 6 percent. That's not a knock on you, but you need cardiovascular at the beginning of every workout. I do 1 min sprints at 12, followed by 1 min walk, for 15 sprints total, basic math and your at 30 mins total cardio. If you want faster results cardiovascular in the morning fasting. Also, add 15 mins after workout in the sauna, and shave your chest ect after 30 days of this. Then post a new pic.
15%+ bodyfat in those pics. 6% bodyfat is not maintainable so I would be really surprised if you ever were that low.
I know and I don't get it either as I certainly never looked shredded, but here is the BOD POD reading from last summer, and I look the same now except I have more muscle: https://www.eroids.com/pics/dragondogs-summer-bf
The reading was taking twice.
if you shave you may get closer to seeing them, but youre no where near 6% bf sorry to break it to you, closer to 15ish percent at a glance
I am fairly certain I am. I was POD BOD tested about 6 months back. I can post it. Albeit, I was at about 205 lbs, but since then I added a lot of muscle and strength. My abs look the same whether I am 195 or 230. I have pictures of my abs from then, too, and they look the same. I think I am having bloating from the hydrocortisone I am prescribed for adrenal insufficiency or I need to do some better ab exercises.
with those stats you posted, youd basically look like Arnold...
I get it, and I don't look like him. I look this way with those stats. What do you recommend besides some tren, which I am looking at trying, to improve my abs?
stats are stats haha, 2 people cant have the same stats and look COMPLETELY(key word) different. you just need to diet down to reveal your abs...simple as that
Diet, more diet. I can do that. I will get my BF% retested in the next week. It would definitely motivate me if I am over 10%. I am increasing my meals from 4 to 5, also.
yea try getting retested. all about diet here. good luck!
You can look into ab implants
They would go well with the steel balls implant I had done several years ago. The only draw back is the constantly clinking when jogging. Seriously, not serious.
If you don't have abs popping at 6% BF then there is nothing else you can do.
It would suck if I had an ab disability.
225 at 6 percent and no abs, ha! I'll believe it when I see it
At 6% bodyfat there isnt much shredding to do,either work on your abb muscles making them bigger..or else your going to have to look at the bloat issue seperately
Put up a photo of this 225lbs 6'2" 6% beast please.
I am headed to the gym. I will temporarily post one afterwards. Upfront I am not a bodybuilder, I am built for fighting. Anyways, please hold off on the 'this guy is full of shit comments.' I will post a pic later today. I am seriously looking for help in this area.
I didn't mean for that to come across in a disrespectful way, apologies if it did.
Only about 10% of he community are bodybuilders on here, we are gym rats, fighters, TRT oldies and everything in between.
If people throw disrespect your way we will jump on them mate. Looking forward to the photo.
No offense taken. I can be very cynical at times, too. In fact, my friends have said that I mean. Just not mean to my friends.
I will put up. I want to keep the conversation going. So, here is the link to the photos I took today: https://www.eroids.com/pics/dragondogs-abs-back-and-arm
I did flex; otherwise, my abs don't really show much separation.
I did comment on the photo but to keep it in this thread also as you'll remove the photo soon.
I think your bf is slightly higher than you think. Where did you get it tested? I think you're more in the 16% Keep dieting down. You have decent mass, now time to carve it up. Respect for putting the photo up. More people need to put their photo where their mouth is so to speak.
I was tested using a BOD POD in July. I will go and get tested again in the next week.
Gonna get some rest. Thanks to everyone for your input. I will check back later.
I am tracking. TrenAllDay was saying the same thing. I might be a little higher than a was a couple months ago. I will see about getting tested again. The problem I have is that no matter what I do, even when I was definitely 6%, my abs don't show separation unless I flex them.
backonroidsYou must be huge mate , look forward to the pic
I posted the link above. From my perspective, I do not think I am huge, but I know I make the Bieber clones piss themselves.
backonroidsYou look powerful mate - Keep it up , maybe shave mite help you see your abs more ;-)
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words. Power, strength and heart keep me here.
