Struggling for abs to pop

jtaylor5546

Even when I get very lean (for me) my abs are not well defined. Drives me crazy

I’m having the issue... although not as lean as you.

You look great.

Seeing abs will be dependent not only on low enough BF% but genetics and muscle base as well. For some people, compound lifts will build them up sufficiently, for others it may not be enough. I would run a few bulk cycles with focus on progressive weighted and bodyweight ab exercises to help build them up.

You’re right. I think genetics plays a big part. Some guys can be overweight and still have abs. My trainer always said it’s ONLY diet and just focus on building the other areas so I never worked them. He had better genetics in that area so never had to work them.
