this is weird but when a pull down my excess skin on my stomach i cud see my abs...how do i actually see them with out doing that?

[showtyme333]

on your body, IMO you simply need more muscle in your abs. you could diet to see them a little more, but you are already pretty low bf %. Theres a lot of posts on here about how to get more overall muscle in the abs, might be worth lookin into. Goodluck in reaching your goals man!

so this is day 15 (even tho i didnt post the other 15 days here) and i rearranged my diet since i was starving all the time. i rechecked my calorie intake and turned it into 1451 rather than 1000 and something.

i am offically starting tommorrow morning with some egg whites and a glass of some green tea. i will be drinking green tea through out the day to keep my metabolism pretty high.

The abdominal muscles are composed mostly of slow twitch fibres. As a muscle grou they have VERY LITTLE potential for growth. Just because the guy is skinny doesn't mean he has a low body fat %.

today was pretty good. at running practice with the team today we ran a 1800m warm up. 1 mile on the track at 3/4 race pace and 2 miles at race pace.

it was a pretty easy running workout. also my weight lifting workout today seemed to go pretty well, i worked out pretty late today bc i couldnt get a ride (9pm started).

after the weight training i was extremly sore and took some l glutamine and some fiber. i feel pretty good right now, just for shows that glutamine does work to all the people who say it doesnt.

my diet today looked like this...it was 1305 calories at the end of the day

meal 1

half cup of oatmeal

meal 2

5 leafs of lettuce
hald cup of oatmeal
5 slices of chicken breast
2 pieces of whole wheat toast

meal 3

cup of rice with veggys in it
half cup of carrots
half cup of string beans
7 oz of grilled chicken

meal 4

2 handfuls of mixed nuts

meal 5

1 handful of mixed nuts
