This is not recognized as being a real thing by modern medical practitioners or those in the scientific community.
It is a coined often used by Internet "guru" types to explain a wide range of often unrelated symptoms.
Any comments on this would be appreciated.

QUESTION: is it important to have an abs if youre trying to gain muscle? my knowledge is when gaining muscle you want to gain a weight right but in a right way but gaining weight means you're abs are gonna be gone so should i be worried about it or train it as how i train it which is like 4 times a week even if its slowly dissapearing? Or should i not be worried about it and just bother with it when im about to cut??

I can provide general information about maintaining a healthy digestive system, including some tips related to leaky gut.
Balanced Diet: Eating a well-rounded diet that includes a variety of whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats can support overall digestive health.
Adequate Hydration: Drinking enough water helps keep the digestive system functioning properly and prevents dehydration, which can affect digestion.
Fiber Intake: Consuming an adequate amount of dietary fiber, both soluble and insoluble, can promote regular bowel movements and support a healthy gut.

You are correct that the concept of "leaky gut" is not universally accepted by the entire medical community. While there are studies and research exploring the gut permeability and its potential role in certain conditions, the term "leaky gut" is sometimes used in alternative or holistic health circles to explain various symptoms without sufficient scientific evidence.
It's important to note that if you have concerns about your digestive health or any related symptoms, it is advisable to consult with a qualified healthcare professional or a gastroenterologist who can provide a proper diagnosis and evidence-based guidance tailored to your specific needs. They can assess your individual situation and provide appropriate recommendations for maintaining a healthy digestive system.

The importance of having visible abs while gaining muscle is subjective and depends on personal preferences and goals. It's true that when focusing on gaining muscle, it often involves being in a calorie surplus, which can lead to some increase in body fat. This can result in less visible abs.
However, maintaining some level of core strength and training your abdominal muscles is still beneficial for overall stability, posture, and functional strength. Including regular core exercises in your training routine, like the four times a week you mentioned, can help maintain muscle tone and strength in your abs.
When you reach a point where you want to reduce body fat and enhance definition, typically during a cutting phase, you can prioritize targeted abdominal exercises and pay closer attention to your diet and overall calorie balance. This can help reveal the underlying abdominal muscles and enhance their visibility.
Remember, everyone's body and goals are different, so it's important to focus on what aligns with your personal preferences and overall fitness objectives. Consulting with a fitness professional or personal trainer can also provide guidance tailored to your specific needs and help you create a balanced training and nutrition plan.

To begin your journey towards your physique goals, there are several key principles and steps you can follow:
Set Clear Goals: Define your specific physique goals, whether it's building muscle, reducing body fat, or both. Having clear goals helps you stay focused and motivated throughout the process.
Nutrition: Pay attention to your diet and focus on consuming a balanced mix of macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats) to support your body composition goals. Consider tracking your calorie intake and macronutrient ratios to ensure you're in line with your goals.
Resistance Training: Incorporate regular strength training workouts into your routine to build muscle and shape your physique. Focus on compound exercises that target multiple muscle groups, and gradually increase the intensity and resistance over time.
Progressive Overload: Continuously challenge your muscles by progressively increasing the weights, repetitions, or intensity of your workouts. This principle helps stimulate muscle growth and strength development.
Recovery and Rest: Allow your body time to recover and adapt by incorporating rest days into your training schedule. Proper sleep, hydration, and nutrition play a crucial role in recovery.
Consistency and Patience: Building an ideal physique takes time, dedication, and consistency. Be patient with the process, as results won't happen overnight. Stay consistent with your training and nutrition, and make adjustments as necessary.
Seek Guidance: Consider working with a qualified fitness professional or personal trainer who can create a customized workout and nutrition plan based on your goals. They can provide guidance, accountability, and ensure you're performing exercises with proper form.
Remember that everyone's definition of the "ideal physique" may vary, so it's important to focus on your own goals and what makes you feel confident and healthy. Stay committed, be open to learning, and enjoy the journey towards achieving your desired physique.

Certainly, you can still work towards your physique goals even without access to a gym. Here are some options for training without a gym:
Bodyweight Exercises: Perform exercises that utilize your body weight, such as push-ups, squats, lunges, planks, and burpees. These exercises can help build strength and endurance.
Resistance Bands: Invest in resistance bands, which are affordable and versatile. They can provide resistance for exercises like rows, bicep curls, shoulder presses, and more.
Cardiovascular Activities: Engage in activities like running, jogging, cycling, or skipping rope to improve cardiovascular fitness and burn calories.

Embarking on a journey towards your ideal physique is an admirable goal. Here are some principles to consider:
Set Clear Goals: Define what "physique perfection" means to you. Create specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals to guide your progress.
Nutrition: Understand the importance of a balanced diet. Focus on consuming adequate protein, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates. Monitor your calorie intake to align with your goals, whether it's gaining muscle or losing fat.
Resistance Training: Incorporate strength training into your routine. Focus on compound exercises that target multiple muscle groups. Gradually increase weights and challenge yourself with progressive overload to stimulate muscle growth.
