I cleaned up my diet more this past month, started doing the crunches again.... I noticed when I eat healthier I can notice the muscles of 2 abs, obviously the rest of my stomach is still developing. Is it possible to see only 2 abs even if I don't have a flat stomach yet? They're the top 2

    Ya generally you lose weight from the top down. The bottom two are by far the hardest to get to see.

    I'm the same - the top two are very visible, and I can see why, I have very little fat around my ribs.

    You are well on your way. The rest will show up very soon.

    As everyone above has said; the fat seems to go from top down. Also many people have under-developed lower abdominals so may benefit from directly training them.

    I've got a distinct4 pack w/the bottom 2 barely noticeble below the beltline but, if I go shirtless, no one really knows that it's not a true 6 pack. I just fake it. LOL!

    Only two abs revealed is quite normal for those losing body fat. As it drops lower, others will show.
