It still comes down to body fat.

What body fat do you have to be to have visible abs? Mine are finally visible, but not by a whole lot, I just don't have to flex to make them pop lol. I'm 160, 5'10 btw.
Im also very vascular, I'm sure that has less to do with bodyfat and more to do with genetics.

Thanksl. I'll be PMing you both. I've been busy as of late. Once I am able to quit my current job and move forward with being a PT I'll have a bit more time.

There is no real answer to that question. Everyone's body type is different. If you're looking for the golden number there isn't one.

a lot of people will tell you 10%
BUT
genetics play a role, some dudes like football players at higher BF have visible thick abs.

You need to stop worrying about your abs, and worried about the fact that you are 160 and 5'10... but that's none of my business
Vascularity is very genetics based, along with low BF. You weigh 160, you should be vascular.

Mine are visible, but I still have that stubborn beer belly bit left. It's odd.

People sound so salty when they talk about skinny guys being vascular and having visible abs.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, no one besides themselves, wants to look like a fat power lifter.

It's funny you guys are talking about bf%. I'm learning how to take the measurements for that tomorrow (4 points). I will get mine done tomorrow to see where I'm at. I'm still 5'9.5 at 180lbs with visible abs (if that matters)

Because if you aren't skinny you can only be a fat power lifter

There's always a happy medium, no need for extremes,

I see fat girls with no butts all the time, tig ol' bitties, but no butt.
Fat girls with no boobs, that is sad, god didn't intend for you to be big girl...hit the gym.

Takes on the paleo diet? I eat a ton of oats and came across am article on marksdailyapple.com (paleo website) about them. Crazy to read opionions saying carbs are not essential/nessecary and actually make you hungrier....

Any one work the grave yard shift / overnights? How is your workout routine ? I only can manage to work out on full days off, days that I don't work at nights. Only can put in 3-4 days a week.

thats what lebron is doing right now..lost all that muscle smh
Carbs arent supposed to fill you up. complex carbs like oats are tho. but carbs like chips, junk food, cookies, etc..just quick energy bursts
