Getting those lower abs to show
Hi. I've been working out seriously since 2001, and like many other guys out there, I'm on the elusive quest for a six-pack. After eating 1600 cal/day and working out 5 days a week (sometimes 6) for 3 years, I got 4 of my abs to show. In three years since then, I STILL can't get the lower abs to pop. I've tried just about everything: all of the ab exercises, working abs in combination with other exercises, stomach vacuums, cutting down on fat intake, etc. I eat 6 meals a day, drink loads of water, get about 140g of protein, shakes before/after W/O, supplement with creatine and glutamine, basically doing all of the right stuff. What's the deal with the lower abs not showing? I've even used ab gel that's supposed to tighten up the skin. My brother-in-law insists it's because I'm over 40. Please help me prove him wrong! Any suggestions gratefully received!
