Keep working hard! The reason for you lack of abs is one, bodyfat is higher than you think...Now overall yes you may be 10% body fat, but like me...we store lots of water and fat in our abdominal. You would greatly benefit from adding more mass...you'll find that you will start seeing them more Keep it up!

W.O.W...listen to your body and what works for YOU...not for someone else...If lifting heavy works for you, DO IT, if 12-15 reps works for you...DO THAT THEN... also comes down to diet...do what works for you... EVERYONE is different!!!

Looks like you gained some size along with dropping a little fat. GJ. However, you are still in the 12-14% range. You should really start focusing on gaining some mass, it will make it easier to maintain abs in the future. You are at peak age for gaining size, its not worth trying to diet to have skinny kid abs

Hate to break it to you but you're above 13-14%
You have no muscle mass to definite yourself.
Don't get discouraged though, you're still young and this is the best time to start slamming on mass.
For your own sake, don't focus on bodyfat and certainly not on abs. You may see some kids at school with rocking abs but they're built like thin armed ladies, go the other way.
Kur, I'd say you're pretty damn close to 10, maybe even right underold broken soldier

Thanks guys, to be honest since i took the first photo I haven't really done anything special, Now that the holidays are coming up I'm hopeful that i can really get into this.
Ill post at the end of the holidays to show you if there is an improvement, you should have seen me a year ago though XD i weighed about 10 kg heavier, i find it really difficult though to put on mass im eating as much as i can but i still haven't budged from 65 kg. Must be the amount of cardio and sports i do :/
My current sporting practices include;
2 hours bball practice 4 times a week
30 mins every 2 days doing jump training
3-4 hour mountain bike rides once a week
2 km swim at 5:30 am twice a week.
ps, at 5 foot 10 i dunked on a full size ring yesterday, sooo happy!!!!!
pps: i can do about 10 one armed pushups each arm and 70 normal pushups straight.

Abs = rectus abdominis. It's a muscle, you have to stimulate it for growth if you want to see it. That means resistance exercise. I know a lot of skinny guys who think they can't put on weight despite eating a lot. It's normally because they're inconsistent with their intake. You may eat like a beast every once in a while, but you have to be consistent for their to be any recognizable change, being active just means you have to take in even more energy. Just like how most people get fat very gradually, averaging only 100kcal more than what it would take to maintain their weight daily maybe. That's less than a lb a month and weight fluctuates more than that on a daily basis so you wouldn't even recognize that. But it's also 50lbs in 5 years time.
Calculate your maintenance calories (TDEE) and try for about a 250kcal surplus. Couple that with a starting strength routine, or a full body resistance workout 2-3 times a week. Don't let up for 6-12 months and you'll likely see a dramatic change.
