Trying To get the Six Pack I have always wanted

[williamsjh4]

Hi All,

I hvae busted the last 2 months to achieve a total weight loss of 18 lbs. But I still have a long way to go to achieve the six pack I have always wanted. I feel like I am at a stand still and am not seeing the muscle results i need and the flat stomach has not happened... Thoughts? Reccomendations? I am all ears. I have been battling weight for years, and am finally doing something about it. Thanks for listening.

Here's the hard truth...you can lose that weight and have a flat stomach and no abs. In fact I'm pretty sure you won't have 6 pack abs once your stomach is flat. Takes years of lifting hard. Heady deadlifts and squats will build up your core. Some are genetically blessed with 6 pack abs but most aren't and need to earn them, not by just losing weight but by lifting heavy and doing a lot of ab work it can take years. Good luck.

Thank you for the insight.

As far as the flat stomach goes, stomach fat is often the last to be shed and it can come down to the very last few pounds.
