HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET ABS? (REALISTIC TIMELINE!) // Many people wonder how to get abs and the time to get abs is often underestimated.
How long its going to take you to get visible abs depends on where you're starting from. You'll see a male body fat chart and a female body fat chart so that you can estimate your body fat percentage.
Reducing your body fat percentage is the key to getting visible abs.
If you're asking, "How long will it take me to get visible abs?" or "How long will it take me to get abs?" or "How long until I can see my abs?", you'll need to know your starting point and where you want to get to.
Your place in the body fat chart men or body fat chart women is where we do the calculation from.
You'll want to find out your lean body mass and then determine how many pounds of fat you need to lose.

I don't really have words to express how helpful this video is. Learning I'm 3-6 months from visible abdominals is a huge help. Gonna work on eliminating sugary drinks, and snacks, and getting more exercise. really looking forward to it.
Hope it goes well for you! 😊
How’s it going?
How is it going
Ever since my dad died back in 2014 I gained A LOT of weight. Like 31-40ish body type is what I have now, I used to have a better body a few years ago, and now that it’s around march, I’m pretty young and think everyone at my age has their own personal dreams of a summer body. So thanks a lot of this video I’m definitely hitting the gym more often :)
Glad you liked the video. 😊 Sorry for your loss. I put on weight when my dad died in 2004 too...sadness used to make me overeat.
I am so thankful to have seen this, just recently I realised I had gained a little bit of weight, yes I am still a minor, yes im very interested in this video, and you have no idea how grateful I am to have seen this, I'll be watching it atleast once a day to keep me at it. I pick up activities very fast but I never stay in them, so let's hope I do this time because I'm working on getting some light abs! 😊
Consistency is really important when it comes to succeeding at anything, so it's great that you've already realized that. 🙂 At your age it's important to aim for balanced nutrition and learning to enjoy a healthy lifestyle for the long term. Sounds like you're on the right track!
We need an update King
@@dragon83653 I'm so happy to say that it actually worked, I've been doing this for awhile and ended up forgetting about my comment but im so happy with my figure! I'm not a healthy eater but it's something I'm starting to do now!
@@Ellie-yz2upamazing :D thanks for the update and good luck .3.
The baby gods really ties this whole video together
Well defined. Thanks for a clear and straight-to-the-point explanation.
So glad it was helpful. 😊
mindset what helped me to go down to 62kg from 75kg:
dont stare at the numbers, dont compare yourself to others just find sport what you really enjoy and MOTIVATES YOU. If you like what you do more likely it will become habit! its goig to take around 30 days to build habit.
It is lifestyle change not something what you do for 3months and quit. Building healthy habits is the key to stay fit. Also mindset about food:
eat food like a medicine so you dont have to eat medicines like a food :D
and for people who want to build muscle: calculate your daily calories and how much protein you get, too little you wont build muscle, too much also leads to health issues later on. Fix your sleep!
your body is resting and getting stronger when you sleep.. but without the fuel, protein it wont work.
great exercises for people to get stronger:
- dead lifts
- lunges ( can use weights to get more challenge )
- planks
- push ups
- split squats
- squats ( if you want more challenge do it with weights => squats with shoulder press )
to be safe add more weights 0.5 - 1kg/month. Learn to do these with right form. Listen to your body when you add weights: work out should feel challenging but you never should feel strong pain.
Small discomfort and sweat = good!
Strong pain like something sting you = BAD, stop the workout and check your form
Just want to throw in an anecdote. It's different for everyone! I can see the outline of my abs at 31.5% body fat. I just work out abs a lot.
That’s very unusual, even for a woman. But I do mention the genetic differences in abs thickness and fat distribution. “Outline of abs” is also different from seeing 6 sections…you would probably have that at a higher body fat level as well. Lucky you! 😁 Not sure how old you are, but it may change as you get older as well.
@@IvanaChapman Yeah I guess it is unusual. I got a DEXA done and I was surprised that my body fat % was almost 32. The breakdown though is 27% body fat in the trunk (which is abdominal region) and 40% body fat in the legs. I'm 24 years old by the way!
Where do you store your fat? I store mine in my stomach and thighs unfortunately.
This is sooo true... I wanted to work out for abs and everything online was so discouraging but I started my workout less than 2 months ago, I have a cute outline now and my ab crack started to appear in less than a month of working out... I have a body fat percentage of about 25. I don't even diet.
Biggest issue I've encountered is when you get to below 20% your body starts fighting you even while maintaining a full workout routine. I've been stuck on the last 10 pounds for 8 months, but at the same time I'm adding weight to my strength routine, so the body fat is roughly staying the same/slowly leaving while muscle is being added. But that's a real slow progression.
Depending on age in particular, as she says, you just have to cut your intake. I'm >50, exercise hard (can do a human flag etc), but made no progress on abs visibility until I started intermittent fasting. Now seeing the impact on the abs... with is really just aesthetics. There's really no need to have visible abs, TBH. The fasting isn't for visibility, but to force me to stop eating as much sugar.
You just need to eat less.
theres a pretty simple reason for this. Say when you started, your maintanence calories (calories you need to maintain your weight) was 2500 calories, since you’ve lost weight you now need less calories per day to maintain your bodyweight so the amount of food you ate in the beginning to lose weight is now your maintenance or you could even start gaining weight. So just cut your calories a little and increase cardio! hope this helped
My successful abs regimen centers around a Victoria Johnson workout.
At the beginning of the workout, Victoria states that 'To get a rock-hard stomach, you have to REALLY put some work into it, along with watching your diet and doing a little cardiovascular three to four times a week."
This notion that abs are made in the kitchen is flat out wrong. Abs, like any muscle, have to be built up in order to pop out.
wow this is so insightful. It gave me enough information to start planning my healthy abs journey:) thanks
Happy to help!
Thank you for putting this video together. I am 55 and have given up added sugars and I am eating more fruits and veggies than ever before. I’ve only lost about 7 pounds over 1.5 months but my clothes fit much better.
I was hoping to reach my desired fat loss in about 8 months but it helps me realize it might be a little longer. That’s ok. The time will pass. Besides, this is a lifestyle change not a fad.
I watched 1000s of videos on this. This one video saves 1000s of hrs. She nailed it.
I don’t leave comments often but WOW! Your info is top notch and I’ll def be checking out the rest of your content
Been working out for the last the last three weeks and have a 4 pack so far and shows pretty well. Have to work on lower abs as well
May I know what workout routine do you stick to?
@lam0204lam now its been about two months I do 30 crunches, 20 side crunches each side, 25 full sit ups, 25 leg raises, 12 side plank crunches each side, plan for a minute, plan with shoulder taps low, and high 15 each, 20 mountain climbers, 20 reverse crunches, and 15 Russian twist. I have a 5 pack now.
How long till i see results using this workout
Hows the progress?

She is literally my dream woman, it’s crazy. Smart, talented and all around great.
Pretty cool, I’m a girl but my dad and I have both always had abs without doing anything. We got our dna done and turns out we have the Hercules gene, that’s why we are always ripped without doing much lol😅
Edit: For people needing more info, it’s a medical condition called myostatin deficiency, it is sometimes referred to as the Hercules gene
Must be nice! 😂
Its because you already have body fat % from 10 and 14%. Everybody could have abs without working.
@@FrancisCordieri actually my body fat is higher than that
@@marshmallow7640 but depends on the body type it could extend to 15 or 16%. You havr more then 16?
@@FrancisCordieri yeah like 20 which isn't that much bigger but my abs are defined. However since we lack myostatin that's why, my dad has less body fat then me and still ripped at almost 60
I'm an athletic guy, but because I have poor control over my nutrition I always look fit, but have never gotten my abs to pop. I know they're there, but I like chocolate too much :) But making changes to my habits to get me there by May 10...my birthday :)
Good goal! Have you worked out if that goal is realistic (according to the calculations)?
@@IvanaChapman If I keep my diet in check, yup, I think it's very doable. :)
Great 😁
TRUTH IS THAT IT WILL TAKE FOREVER . With that in mind , enjoy the journey
the lego ninjago bounty in the background of the video was enough to convince me 🤣
We're big fans of lego and Ninjago around here!
@@IvanaChapmanI respect it tho😂💯I grew up watching ninjago with my little brother
How useful is the diet? Im young and my parents control my diet so i eat whatever they want to eat
Really appreciate this. I always thought y genetics have doomed me. But I'm more confident after watching this
My genetics suck but I’m a gymnast and I workout a lot. Your genetics might have some say in your body type, but they cannot define how lean or toned that body can get. I am considered a skinny person in my family even though I’d say I’m average… good luck with your journey!
Thanks for watching! Do you have an abs goal? Let me know if you need any help with the calculations. ⬇⬇⬇
The "Tarzan" Guy in the picture at 3:21 3:22 3:23 certainly needs no extra workouts , Definitely the ideal Guy look I am sure you will agree. Cheers Ivana,
my weight dropped to the point where I looked like an anorexic, well, maybe it wasn't that extreme , but then I started gaining weight a little bit till I got back to my usual weight, since I'm currently not a member of the gym , I don't really have a specific goal that I might want to achieve, but the I'm still trying to keep myself in shape by doing some home workouts, like push-ups, crunching, and some calisthenics as well,. But thanks a lot, I utterly appreciate your willingness to help, I'm going to rejoin the gym, but that would be next year fingers crossed 😊
I need to figure out my body fat I currently weight at 127 I just lost 57 pounds so I do I know what my body fat is ?
Depending on the Calculator you use then her steps work. Believe it or not calculators depending on the one you have. For example you are not going to use a calculator designed just for Algebra and expect to use it on Statistics.
I'm 6'11 and 335lbs what would be my percentage of body fat for abs to show?
Great video! Well put together and to the point. Thank you for giving people the information needed to have realistic expectations and goals.
with 2024 coming to an end ive been extremly if you across this comment check back to see if ive acheived abdominals
Following
Thanks a lot for making such a useful video,. It took me about three months to get definite abs, but the V lines took way longer
Great work! I'm curious...how much did your weight change in those 3 months?
Had to watch this twice, I kept getting distracted by the Baby Yoda in the back. 😝
If you’re in decent shape, 6 mos of strict caloric deficit with moderate training can create some pretty spectacular abdominals.
6 mos? Did you mean 6 months
If you don't have any critical medical conditions that requires XYZ, the most sensible thing to do is to do what you can overcome.
Something is better than nothing. If you have the time and surplus to hit the gym, but not keep a healthy diet, do that.
If you're able to calorie count and get all your nutrition, but suck at hitting the gym, do that.
Set your expectations to what you put into it, no more. A good combination will yield better results.
Thanks so much for the video! I've often wondered how to determine how much to lose to get those abs showing. But what about just loosing BMI instead of weight in general? To gain muscle while losing fat. Would that even work? Would my fat go towards building muscle with a calorie deficit? (Btw thanks so much for the TVA help, my stomach is getting noticeably flatter every day. On a side note about that, it helps regulate your bowel movements as well) Love the baby Yoda.
Glad you liked the video! What you're referring to is losing body fat (rather than BMI, which is just the body mass index - a relation of height to weight) or improving your body composition. And yes, most people can build muscle and lose fat at around the same time. The combination of strength training and eating at either a calorie deficit or even maintenance (for people who are close to their target weight) will help you achieve that.
I talk about that idea in this video, and a few others: ua-cam.com/video/4m3aexxvKzY/v-deo.html
Very happy to hear that the TVA exercises are helping you as well. 😊
Good video, here is my problem. I was 71 kg and lost 6kg my abdominal shirink alot but as start maintaining 65kg after 3 months or more my belly fat came back while my weight stayed at 65kg. This means I lost lean body mass.
Yes, probably. How much weight training did you do and how much protein did you eat daily? Those are the two things that need to be monitored to maintain your muscle mass.
@@IvanaChapman thanks for reply, I did push ups at home about 200 reps with time intervals, walking 3km per day. I took 0.7 to 1 g of protein per lean body mass. Part the problem was that I had surgery and I had stop push ups. But I watched for my calorie intake. It seems my body doesnt keep lean tissues well. I look skinny fat. Any suggestions what to do.
Push-ups alone aren't enough of a strength training program. You need to work your whole body, including your legs, for optimal muscle development. I talk about skinny fat here: ua-cam.com/video/8HJv7u0VKsY/v-deo.html
@@jawadhazrat4349 do some strength training, mine show with higher body fat... Only because I did HEAVY weight training aimed directly at the stomach area 😎💪
Eddie hall is a prime example! Strength training on your abs trust me, most professionals are forgetting to mention it in a more simplistic way
7 weeks ago I had a big pot belly. I'm actually starting to get a six pack right now!!!!!!! I can't believe it!!!!!! (Well it's currently a 4 pack! By the way, I think my body fat percentage must be quite high, but I have a pear shaped figure, so the fat is mostly on my hips and thighs.)
Can't tell by your name, but I assume you're a woman. Excess fat tends to be stored in hips and thighs in pre-menopausal women.
@@IvanaChapman Yes, I am a woman, late 30's.
How???
Hey Ms. Chapman, fantastic video, much appreciated.
I'm a 21 year old guy that is 6'5" and weighs 243 pounds. To get to the 15% body fat I'd need to be around 195. So I'm going to start this little program today and try to usher in consistency with the new year. I was wondering though, is the calorie amount really all that matters food wise in order to lose weight fast? And do you have any suggestions on going about how I should go about finding out how many calories I should be taking in, in order to get to my goal. I was hoping to have rather visible abs by October of this coming year. Thanks again, subbed!
Glad you liked the video!
Calories are going to have the biggest impact on your fat loss, with your protein intake and exercise having a smaller impact. I think there are some ideas for setting up your numbers in this video: How To Lower Your Body Fat Percentage (SAFE & EFFECTIVE FAT LOSS!)

@@IvanaChapman thank you, much appreciated. Will watch it right now!
Hi bro, how are you now? I hope you continued your fitness journey. 2 months to go and it'll be October!
I am 17 years old and 48 KG and i want a proper guidance to gets abs , I want ur help even this video was super helpful ❣️and need more guidance, looking forward for your kind response.
Really appreciate this totally honest answer to gaining ab muscle , no BS thank you 😊
Finally a video that makes sense! Thank you! New sub here! ☺️🙏🏽
Glad you liked the video…and welcome to my channel! 😁
I love this video!! It is so true i lost three kg in two month by changing my nutrition and training and now it’s taking more time for me to loose weight as fast.. this is helpful to know im not crazyy
So all I need to do is change my diet and exercises as you said only count for 20% while diet is 80%. That's an interesting statistic
Not a stat...just a rough guideline.
Diet is the hardest part😂 Especially if you just started working out you should see that newbie gains in few weeks
Finally someone telling truth...
Thanks for your knowledge and expertise. I agreed with every word you say. As well, everybody is unique. I am 62, and in the last 6 months I have lost approximately 30 (196-166). I can tell and see the difference from day one to today. Using your calculations, 166 x .2=33.2, 166-33.2=131.8 x1.15=152.72, 166-152.72=13.28 should be my goal. Correct? My whole issue is my sports life. I am training daily for triathlon. And with the deficit in daily calories, approximately 3500-4000 burned daily, it's a bit hard to keep up and burn more fat...I feel that besides my first 30 pounds of fat has been showing my sixpack better than when I was 18, I am not sure from where else, I can burn more fat. Now, one thing I have to face is weight workouts. I am increasing my time, weights and days to 3-4 days a week. Before just 1-2 days. What I have to watch is muscle mass...in triathlon, I feel I should not grow much, but on the other side, more weights, more lean, stronger, although I may weigh more?
I'm 33kg and see faint lines across are those abs. Play b ball and walk a lot . My skinfold was 12% trying to bulk. Don't know if skinfold was wrong as another was 20. My weight is accurate unfortunately crosschecked. I'm 5 feet 1 and have to gain some muscle but wanna keep that definition and have them popping. I've a morning routine as well for 8 pack.
Abs not a priority, but getting stronger and bulky yes✌️
Sounds like a plan!
This is a really nice video.. and very realistic time frame estimate on getting leaner. Thank you.
Thank you for this video, it pushed me over the edge.
It depends if u are on the verge of having abs already and u work like crazy. Then maybe and that's a big maybe u will have abs in 30 days
Did anyone else click on this video because of the baby Yoda in the background? 😂
Everyone loves him ❤️🥰
It's crazy to me that as a man, i'm 122lbs and probably around 22% body fat... like damn how light do i need to be
Best and clear video ever
I've had abdominal surgery, about a six inch incision; muscle was cut into 😮 Oh, I weigh 112 lbs. Been doing abdominal workouts for about 5 months, I'm fortunate to have a flat stomach. 😅
Very helpful! But what is some advice to actually lose body fat?
Thanks! You can search my channel for specific topics. This is a good one to get started for fat loss: ua-cam.com/video/4m3aexxvKzY/v-deo.html
Very interesting lol. Its been 6 wks, not rly dieting, just avoiding unnecessary snacking, avoiding processed food & sugars....
My obliques are starting to appear
Hey,i have a question now i have the outline and four pack,how many days will it take to get six pack?also great video!!
This is very helpful. Thanks a lot!
Question: I weigh 129 lbs, body fat 20%, but I still have big belly fat. I don’t have visible abs. How to lose that?
62M. I am eight weeks into my abs program and they're just starting to pop out.
At this rate of progress, in another eight weeks, my abs should be visible under a tight T-shirt.
I don't think it's possible to get a six-pack in 30 days, without the aid of HGH or steroids.
Really good explanation thank you !
Yeah
What I wonder most about is how to get ab muscles as a female to begin with. I have understood that there is no direct way to train the abs via weight lifting. So its only grown by core training. But this seems impossible to me. I mean, I am suppose to train my core/abs (and low body fat) but how many years does it take?! I see insane abs in fitness models but that most have taken them several years to obtain right? Why does no one talk about this? My issue is:
You can only get abs via core training but seems impossible to me? ( I have tried)
And it takes time but how much time?
abs are like any other muscle, if you want them to grow or show you need to progressively overload them and be in a calorie deficit
Great video, very informative, thank you!!!
All of us have Abs. The Biggest question is: how are we supposed to make them available for the world to see when theyre perpetually covered by a thick layer of flab?
Intermittent fasting and Healthy eating is needed.
How about a skinny person but have a little bit tummy and want to get abs? I'm 42 kg and i think if i continue losing weight it would be too thin but I still want to get rid of my belly and have visible abs
There are some ideas here: What Is Skinny Fat? (Causes & Skinny Fat Solution!)

Perfect video I've been looking for these calculations on line and haven't been able to locate.
I’m a teenager and have 8% body fat but my stomach is still a little chubby. What should I do?
This made so much sense thank you !
Very helpful video !! THANK YOU!!!!!!!
My mom weights A little more then me and she is absolutely shredded! She has visible abs and is very lean. How come my abs dont show even though me weight the same?
Could be lots of things. Does she do weight training? Does she have a similar body type/size otherwise? How old are you and how old is she?
@@IvanaChapman thank you for the fast respond! And yes my mom does weight training a lot. She was very overweight a couple of years ago and since then she hasn’t stopped going to the gym.
My mom is 45 and I’m 17. But I play soccer 4x a week and do weight training 1 or 2 times a week in the gym.
And yes we also have the same bodytype. But I started working out in the gym and eating 100% healthy just 3 weeks ago. So I guess I’m just stressing my results. I think I need to be patient with it
I also wanted to ask if you can eat candy or chips once every 2 weeks and still have abs? I really can’t live without having candy lol
It takes years to build muscle…you’ve got plenty of time! You probably have another 15 years until you reach your peak muscle building capacity. And yes, you can eat candy (or any other treat). It comes down to how much and how often you’re having it.
Good information
I tried gaining weight and I'm now 114 lbs. But i gained belly fat which looks like 32% range (female). I don't want to lose overall body weight but just the stomach. How do I go about that? I'm doing ab workout but you mentioned that'll not help much. So how do I do it?
Targeting belly fat isn’t something you can really accomplish.
I don’t know your build, but I’d recommend focusing on building overall muscle. Over time, the scale may say the same 114 but you’ll go down in total body fat.
I've answered everything in this new video! ua-cam.com/video/7AIlzFNZIww/v-deo.html
What I’d really like to know is how long should you see any results before switching your routine?
It depends on many factors, for starters every peeson is unique and will have different results, it also depends if you stick to your diet and workout plan or not, it also depends on genetics,hormones,diseases... and about the routine, you shiuld make a routine that you enjoy and know you can stick to and just stick to it, the results will come dont worry
Great video Ivana!!!
Thank you!
I'm currently 168 pounds in weight, what is my percentage of body fat and how long roughly will it take to see a visible change by light to moderate workouts at the gym
This might be the only video I’ve seen where the math is actually done for showing abs.
grogu in the back 😂
Thanks for the calculations now I know the time frame, I can push to a deadline
Thanks so much
I believe you-da.
Thank you!
its possible to be very lean and no 6 pack, abs are also a muscle so if you dont train them they wont really show, how do i know? I was 102 pounds at 6 feet back in september, single digit bodyfat but no 6 pack, visable ribcage, sitting hurt sleeping in my bed hurt i was starving, no energu, basically shredded without the muscle kind of bodyfat. The fact i watech greg doucette's content saying "If you cant see abs, your fat" didnt help me and gave me body dysmorphia.
Sorry to hear about your experience. I talk about the fact that abs are a muscle that can be trained (to a certain extent) in other videos. Also, I emphasize that building muscle all over through weight training and appropriate nutrition tends to bring out the abs as well. There's a difference between being very skinny and being "shredded". The latter tends to require a good level of muscle.
@@IvanaChapman i am 136 pounds and 6 foot 1 now and here is what i notice, i can only see my abdominals when im not bloated and when im on a empty stomach i might be able to see a very faint 6 pack but i see a 4 pack but its not super noticeable as i have to look and flex it a bit to show.
I have very skinny arms and my legs are lean. If i had to estimate my bodyfat im probably 12-14% I started abulk and weight training in late september of 2023, my abs are more visable now than when I started the bulk, my bodyfat has gone up a bit but I gained some muscle definition but still look pretty skinny in the mirror overall.
I bulked aggressively until 125 pounds then decided to just aim to gain 2 to 2.5 pounds a month just so I put on more quality mass.
102 pounds on 6 feet body frame, damn. You need to bulk up first
This is the perfect video lol.
I am currently at 15.2% of body fat and still not visible abs 😂 but I WILL
Good advice
Please help me im stupid in maths , my weight is 70 kgs and body fat is 40 to 45 so what's the= ?

Bs
I’m a lady at 25% BF. I’m also an ectomorph trying to build muscle. My trainer tells me that I shouldn’t change my fat % and just build muscle. Will that help me define my abs? From the vid, it appears that I still need to target lower %.
oh my god bro has 14 abs
A great and honest video
Love the baby yoda in the background
thanks i needed to hear that one part whrre u started talking about that people who weigh more will lose more weight easier, am 5’1 and am not fat but i do want to some fat fat and maintain muslce and get abs and it took me 2 months to healthily lose 2kg but i gained 1,5kh back cauee of binge eating but am back on eating 1500-1700
Absolurely love the video but I have one question. If its all about body fat% does that mean that underweight and "normal" people should all have visible abs or at least outline of abs?
Thanks!
No problem!
hi im 37 kg and can see a six pack while laying down but not when stmding up ? Should i just train more?
What will we do with loose skin when we loose fat from our ab ???? BTW ,Great video this is , thank you !!!
Glad you liked it! 😊 How our body deals with loose skin depends primarily on genetics and age. For some people it will tighten up and for others it won’t.
I am currently a 18 year old male and currently weigh at around 58-59 kgs and am around 172cm tall. Judging from the pictures I'd say I am about 19-20% body fat. I can start to see my obliques but I can't see my horizontal lines yet. As for meal prep and for diet, I generally eat pretty healthy, i eat whatever my parents cook for me, and try to rarely eat junk food or unhealthy foods. I don't have access to the gym so I am just doing some pushups, pullups, chinups and dips at home. Do you have any advice for achieving more visible abs at this age and stage? thanks, and good vid!
What about someone with low body fat and weak stomach muscles? Is there a way to determine a lead time for that?
That's much more difficult. Because if you have low body fat and aren't seeing abs, it may be that they're underdeveloped, but it also might just be your genetic ab muscle size. Are you muscular overall or quite slim?
Good Advice
Thanks so much for this video! Great info. What if you're a more skinny fat (I'm definitely 20-25%) and are trying to pack on lean muscle, though? I'm 185 and want to be at least 200 by the fall.
I’m 5’9 and I cut down to 154.6. People said I looked sunken in and that I had bags under my eyes. Idk if it’s even possible for me to have abs at this point. Am I doing something wrong?
that makes sense! thank you very much
Glad you liked it. 😊
One way to get abs really fast is to lay on you're back and lift your feet just about 4 inches off the ground for as long as you can.
Diet is everything. Not holding your legs up
@@amszwed123 Well no diet isn't everything
Not giving up. Maybe by my 3,000th 100 yd sprint by Oct I’ll see them. Figure 10 lb every 1000 sprints. 25 a day. Get active folks. Age 68.
It took me 3 months and a weightloss of 2kg per month to get my six pack back. 😊
I’m 180lbs… I can’t imagine being 165 again. lol
My problem is drank beer for years and quit… now I have this inflated balloon feeling all the time. I don’t drink anymore. Wondering if it will go away.
