Abs while bulking

elninoali

Hi,
Im new to lifting and about to start my bulk next week would it be possible to get abs WHILE bulking as Im doing this ab challenge thing to see if it works? I will be doing a clean bulk btw.

Thanks

I seriously doubt it

If your abs aren't visible now, and you are eating at a surplus then no, you most likely won't reveal your abs.

As for the Ab Challenge. I'm not sure what that is, but if it is just exercising your abs a lot, you can't spot reduce.

OK thanks. Im really skinny not much fat but i dont really have abs when i press them but recently after doing these exercises they are coming in a bit and can see some at the top

They are showing cause you are eating at a deficit. Once you start eating at a surplus, the last place your fat was coming off will be the first place it goes back on (your abs).

If you're eating at a deficit then you're not bulking

No…

if you are skinny just do the bulk, add some muscle, and then cut if off and you will have more to show….

If you can't see them now, they won't show up during a bulk - maybe after the cut though.

I just finished my second bulk. Profile pic on left is pre bulk=visible abs. Profile pic on right is post bulk=no visible abs. Sorry, if you don't already have visible abs it's DEFINITELY not gonna happen.
