I would love to get my BF% down!!! The more motivation I have the better!!! I'm working on a six pack, just need to lose the "baby pooch", that's going to take a lot of work, considering after a certain age, two babies, and years of not working out gravity takes a tight hold:( we can do this!!! Lots of planks coming my way.

I'm not a girl but have similar plans. Agree with the idea that the body should go with the abs.

My current focus is eating reasonably healthily with a calorie deficit, lifting weights to build muscle (as much as I can on a calorie deficit diet) and cardio. Certainly, things are moving in the right direction.

Count me in too!! I've wanted some serious abs for a while, and I'm goin for it I've been doing trimming for the past couple months and still have about another 10lbs of body fat to go before I will start 'seeing' any abs, but I want them so badly! If I can keep myself controlled on the weekends then I should be there in the next 6 weeks. I have yet to take before and after pics, and I know I should. I'll take some for you guys ;P My body fat is 27%. I also agree with the whole body slimming and toning, although I intend on sculpting abs a little harder/ more intense than my arms and thighs right now. BTW, the OP has a beautiful hourglass shape I'm not afraid to admit I'm jealous of.

Hi, think I would like to join too, have lost my way a little bit, started to do bulkin a few weeks back, but then got an injury, and havent exercise for about 3 weeks, but still eating bulking food!!! So I think I want to get down a few lbs before I start again. Might be just what I need.

I do have a six pack already, but am getting abit fleshy on top of it, so just need to get back down to where I was.

Can I just ask Desmonema, what are your stats please

I'm lucky enough that I inherited (from where, I don't know) a natural and well defined six pack that I've had almost my entire life. However....I've added about ten pounds in the last several months and so i've developed a bit of a layer over the top of them which i HATE. So I'm definitely on board with the six pack plan!

I shall get one this weekend

Are we doing any particular programme? Or just whatever we want?

I'm with you. My goal is to have a six pack by Christmas if not sooner. I had 2 minor set backs but I am moving forward. My stats are

Height: 5'4
Weight: 122ish, this is a bit low for me because lack of weight training the last few weeks
Bf%: Low 22% want to be under 20%. I'm going to do the water test on my birthday to get an accurate reading.
Thighs are my problem area: 21inches

I train weights 3-4 times a week, heavy when possible. Cardio light, walking, daily. Pilates and tons of stretching daily. Ab work daily too. I'm looking to increase my weights by a day or so and to add high intensity cardio 2 times a week.

I got myself a pull-up-bar for the door... and do 10 hanging leg raises very often when I walk through that door! Try it!! It's great!!

Once a week, I do 10 sets of 10 leg raises (toe to bar). It really bloody hurts. :laugh: Takes about 3 days before that area doesn't ache!

Hahaha... wish I was there already!! I just get my knees up.... straight legs is still a no-go! I am working on it though.... after all I want those bloody sixpack-abs!!! :happy:

Here's a challenge for you to try: so you bring your knees up so the thighs are horizontal? Curl your hips forwards and upwards and bring the knees up as high as your shoulders. Now where do you feel it?

I got my belly on pic

I started ripped in 30 on saturday, and am also going to do killer buns and thighs 3 days a week. see how that goes.

hope everyone is ok
