A week??? Ok. I've read that you can lose 2 pounds of fat per week, the rest will just be muscle tissue.


If you have a high bodyfat percentage, the abs won't show no matter how much you work. Once your bodyfat falls below 8% for men your abs will begin to show through.

Your diet should consists higher protein intake, moderate fat and moderate complex carbohydrate. You should cut out all excess simple sugars, lower your dairy intake and eliminate excess saturated fats. The majority of your dietary fat should come from essential fatty acids (EFA's -- omega-6 and omega-3) As found in olive oil etc.

To lose fat you need to eat fewer calories. You should create a mild caloric deficit when dieting. In other words, you should be using more calories than you are taking in from your diet. This way, your body has to get the extra calories it needs from fat stores (hopefully). I say hopefully because if you drop your calories too drastically, your body may prefer to use muscle tissue for energy instead of fat. This is why many people who go on fad diets look so soft. They lose almost as much muscle mass as fat those drastic diets.

A nice page to look at would be http://skinnyguy.net/six-pack.html (I like his style of writing)

dude. it takes more work than that you dumbass.

THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD NOT EVER THINK OF STERIODS.

Stay on that diet for 8 weeks and then come talk to us. I doubt you even put any intensity into your workout. You're just a hopeless case.

LOL dont be so harsh. :)



Anyways, its basically 1 lb / week on a strict routine, if you are trying to avoid muscular atrophy. If your waist size is over 34 and you are decently built, expect to maintain your diet even past summer.

I'm being harsh because he can't get ideas through his idiotic skull. He wants to get ripped, who doesn't? He thinks he can do it in a week, and tries to ask questions the whole way without EVER doing any research to try to find out for himself. He's never going to gain knowledge that way, because he doesn't sift through information to build a knowledge base.

Then, he posts questions upon questions about steriods, always looking for that "Quick fix." As if steriods will give him a giant muscle gain without any other types of gain? The muscle is just going to appear out of nowhere? Purely clean? without any fat? I don't think so.

Then he has the nerve to ***** at something that's completely true,

so for all u guys say that abs are 80% dieting, thats bs.
because his fukked up methods didn't work after a week. He needs a swift kick in the ass (or a punch in the face :p). Either would do the world a big favor.

Ohh my... I'm a d!ckhead because you can "go on a diet for a month..."

oh wait, you didn't


you went on one for a week!!!!!

sure your stomach may be smaller, that's cause there's no food in it. Your body is not going to make a visible change in a week!!!

I'd appreciate it if you didn't cuss me out just because you're a little pvssy that doesn't know what the fukk he's talking about.

Um, I have an idea. Let's all shut the fvck up and say something construction to help hb get abs. True, do some research. But seriously, noobs like me need guidance and veterans like semag here are here to help (hopefully):D .

So about abs....yeah, you lose a lot of muscle while cutting. I used to bend 180. Now its like 145. I also weigh 145. Used to be 180!!! Coincedence? Anyways, abs are starting to show after 3 months, but 1 month hardcore abs exercises and lifting (basically hardcore bulking).

I can see the middle line. I can't see individual packs, but the middle line is there now. YAY.

What about this post HB

http://www.sosuave.com/vBulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=52047

It says you've been working out pretty heavily for 5 months. Now, if you aren't as dumb as you sound, you would have worked abs over those 5 months.

Then you come back with this

"It took me about a week of dieting and jogging to lose my stomach, i cant believe it, but the funny thing is that i dont see any abs....... so for all u guys say that abs are 80% dieting, thats bs. I never really did any situps and i cant see my abs.
Guess ima have to start doin situps"

and were sorry afk, the information is out there in like a billion places, hb just has probs with uptake.

Please just go buy some steriods, start using them, and stop asking stupid ass questions that have been answered a thousand times. Thanks

semag, right on man, I can't take it any more either. It either be steriods or people who will only use the "skinnyguy" program.

You dont necessarily lose a lot of muscle (maybe even none) if ure dieting right. Ive done 2 cutting cycles in my life so far and both of the times I still benched the same weight after the 7 or 8 weeks of cutting, but could do 2 reps less (which would probably equal a muscle loss of 1lbs or whateva...). If u dont decrease your caloric intake too fast and still eat enough protein, losing muscle shouldnt be an issue!
