Lower your body fat levels.

4packs/6packs/8packs, are all about body fat. (gosh that sounded like I talking about cans of cokes lol)

I've seen a link somewhere.. that shows a guy's progression from 20% to 6% bf.
I'll see if I can find it.

Some people genetically have six muscles there.

Some people have four.

I just looked it up in my AFAA book.

The reason the abs look like 6 individual parts is because of tendons cutting across the abs and anchoring in the center of the rectus sheath. This makes up the sections. Otherwise the rectus is pretty much a solid muscle.

Sometimes there are 3 cuts per side creating a 6pack. Sometimes there are 2. There are almost always enough to see a 6 pack but the amount of bodyfat needed to see the lower 2 wouldn't be conducive to having a body you could keep for an extended period IE: being on a BBer preshow final day kind of deal. I know personally I have a 6 pack, not an 8 pack.

Is is how some BBers have abs that have 3 on one side and 4 on another. It's genetics.

Post a pic and we will be able to see if it is because of bodyfat, or if you just have 4 sections. My bet would be that you just have high bodyfat or a genetic tendency to carry weight there.

Lower your body fat:
-Green Tea, cardio, lower your carbs, a fat burner such as yohimbine or ECA will help you along.

Abs are made in the kitchen! Fix you diet to cut bodyfat. See the link in my sig for a free ebook on the subject. It provides nutrition and training strategies that will have you seeing all 6 in no time.

Everyone has eight.


OP: That's probably how your fat deposits, or you need to continue losing fat. Abs are a bodyfat % game.
