    How to build abs = work out your core
    How to SEE abs = eat clean to reduce your bf %

    quick and real answer: compound lifts and caloric deficit

    • @kungfuman82
      @kungfuman82 7 років тому +3

      Truth. I feel into that trap of "squats and deadlifts make your waist bigger". I wasn't seeing much results, obviously. I was watching Omar Isuf videos and he interviewed Brad Schoenfeld. I started his Max Muscle Plan. The first two months have no direct ab training whatsoever with the exception of planks during the deload weeks. In 5 weeks my waist had gone down 1.5 inches (from 33 inches down to 31.4 - 31.6 inches), despite not changing my diet at all. I drink sweet teas (I'm a Southern boy), eat fried food, etc. The only thing that changed was my training, which placed emphasis on progressively heavier compound movements.

      Not really a caloric deficit. You cannot really measure the calories you consume. Additionally CICO (Calories In, Calories Out) affects you merely indirectly. It's way more important to avoid crappy carbohydrates. Starch is the best carbohydrate to build muscle and satisfy your hunger without filling up your glycogen stores (you could actually deplete your glycogen stores. Sweet potatoes have the greatest nutritional value out of all crops.
      If you want to lose weight, I would recommend a ketogenic diet. You won't go below your nutritional needs, you'll lose fat by depleting your glycogen stores and still build muscle.

      @jessesy 7 років тому +13

      1) If you actually took a basic biology class, you would know that all forms of carbohydrates (except fiber) are converted into glucose when digested in the body so there are no "bad carbs".
      2) By cutting out carbs, you're cutting out calories (carbs are 4 calories per gram), so yes, it is a caloric deficit.
      "I always lose fat when I eat less carbs. It has nothing to do with calories" - person who doesn't realize eating less carbs means eating less calories

      @cod4champ101 7 років тому +4

      Crazy Frog goddamn, that was a terrible, non-scientific comment. Ketogenic diets work, sure, but they don't inherently work "better" than other diets. Ultimately, for the average person, calorie-consumption relative to calorie-expenditure dictates weight-loss

    • @AverageJak
      @AverageJak 7 років тому +4

      so we have the starter of thread.. who thinks lifting and deficit alone gets nice abs..not true.. and based on your quit blocky midsection youre missing a step. some numpty who thinks you cant measure the calories you consume and the biggest super numpty who believes there are no bad carbs... so what like a bag of white sugar is fine then??

    I'm lucky, I never really stored fat on my stomach. It's more in my hips and back. I'm female btw too.
    And I'm pretty tall, skinny so quite the ectomorph. I never had visible abs though despite there being no fat on my stomach. I started at 25%BF and I'm now at 19% BF and my mid section looks the same, except now that I train abs directly you can see the lines that go vertical. The horizontal lines on the abs are only just started to appear. So for me it wasn't about my body fat, it was cus my ab muscles were basically non existent and I've had to build them up.
    So it can be annoying when people say just drop BF to get abs. Not always the case...

    I do abs in a circuit. I hate doing them but if I don't they'll get weak. I rarely lift with a belt unless it's really heavy.
    This is my circuit. I do it 3 times a week:
    Dumbbell Farmer walk at body weight
    Ab rollout
    Russian twists
    Plank hold for 30 seconds
    Over head press hold at 95lbs for 30 seconds
    Mountain climbers
    Captain's chair
    Dumbbell side bends
    I do this for 5 rounds of 10 reps and then I
    Squat
    Pull up
    Flat bench press
    Deadlift
    Over head press
    Notice how the core is activated in all these movements?
    I also do this in a circuit fashion. For 5 rounds of 10. I'm usually done with my workouts in 45 minutes.
    I hate cardio, but I do that on my off days 3 days a week. Maybe 30 mins. Cardio is boring.
