I had an acute rib separation (very painful) over this summer that stopped me from working out. I need to get back into this shit. I want to get ripped abs but i don't know what sorta routine i need to be doing.

[image loading]


this is what i look like now (i'm on the left). My stomach isn't fat but it's definitely not muscular. Can someone post a good and detailed routine that i can get on? What should i be eating? Any help is appreciated. thx<3

there's been more than a couple threads on workouts and nutritions recently, and dozens of them historically

You know what's great about black t-shirts? They're known to hide the fine contours of your body...-_- If you're gonna post a pic of yourself for evaluation, why don't you post one that will help.

You're wearing a loose black shirt at night, with some asian guy next to you....lol find a better pic man.

As for a 6 pack workout, I still don't understand why you wouldn't just lurk the millions of workout forums out there. Guess the real point of this thread isn't getting a six pack...but the pic you posted hahah....

Oh, and I hear situps work way, way better if you contract your abs at the apex of each repetition. Basically just scrunch em up as hard as you can in order to ensure you're getting a good workout.

Like I said - it's just something I heard or read since I don't exercise for shit. Lulz of epic proportions

You don't get a 6 pack by working your abs. You get a 6 pack by burning more calories than you take in (lifting, running, dieting), until you are at a low enough level of body fat. You get a BIGGER 6 pack by working your abs. If you think about it, it makes sense. The fat will just fill in the creases, no matter how huge your abs are (to a realistic point). Once you drop below a certain BF% (somewhere between 8-12% for most guys, depending on how your body distributes fat), you'll start to see a 6-pack. Even if I'm trying to get a 6 pack, if I have been on a gaining cycle for a few months and lost it, I don't work my abs, I just cut back my calories. Once I start to see the 6-pack, then I start working my abs to make it more defined.

Contrary to what most infomercials will tell you, it doesn't really matter what you do for your abs as long as you work them, and work all of them (lower and obliques may have to be targeted specifically). I do weighted sit-ups, bicycle crunches, and leg lifts if I'm at home, and at the gym: leg raises, ab machine, and decline sit ups either with a dumbbell, or a 10kg ball to throw up at the contraction of each rep. This way I always get some high rep, low resistance, and some low rep, high resistance exercises. You can also work your obliques on a lower back 45 degree bench.

I'm pretty sure you're right, at least when I do that it makes me get that "oh shit my stomach is about to explode" feeling much faster.
