What do you mean 'get abs'?Originally Posted by Alvinthechip
Are you asking about seeing ANY abs? Or, having a super-lean midsection and ab veins?The power of carbs compels me!

I don't think you'll like what 10% looks like unless you put on some lean mass. What's your training?
I can tell time. Time cannot tell me.

Three months isn't enough time to put on any significant amount of muscle.
ATM, to get to "10%" you need to lose 20-30 pounds of fat and frankly you'll probably just look "Skinny" once you get there rater than "ripped".~ Like Tae-Kwon-Leap, my goals are not a path to a door, but a road leading forever towards the horizon.
