So I'm cutting down my weight atm, I'm 6'1 and I'm 187 pounds and I'm getting pretty close to getting abs but people keep telling me I'm getting too think when I'm not, my waist is still 32 inch and my chest is 40-42 inch so I'm not small still but they are actually scaring ends bit and making me want to stop and just gain some weight now. What do you think? I'm gonna get thin to get abs right? It's my first really cut, after it imma go on a muscle mass gaining program too by the way

if you want abs, you should also be working. Dieting alone is unlikely to bring out whatever abs you do hvae (unless you get down to 0% body fat).

congrats on loosing weight, but I suggest you start working out now. you'll build bulk quite fast to begion with and it can all be done for free, and at home.

I've been doing the same thing and use these websites.

100 pushups program. pushups are great as they work a lot of different muscle groups as well as your core

200 sit up program

200 squats program

you should grab yourself some cheap dumbells and start working your arms. you should also include some cardio.

this will see you tone up nicely and if you want to take it further then you can join a gym.

Congrats once again on the weight loss, but if you want abs, you're going to have start sweating a little :)

Thanks for the help by the way I am training too haha just forgot to say thought people would take this as a given haha. Training 6 times a week. Abs is on training program 2 a week and I do a bit of abs every morning before food too

ah ok, it kind of sounded like you were just dieting.

just stick to what you're doing then, you'll get there.

Don't worry what others think, you will never be happy if you try to make others happy. Yes you do need to get skinny to get abs, I would say your gonna have some pretty cool abs when you get down to 170, remember in order for your abs to show nicely you have be 10% body fat or lower 9% is the sweet spot for most. And after you finish cutting don't bulk up right away, stay at your maintainence calories for about 4-6 months, you need to give your body a break because it's gone through a lot

I got another 4 weeks cut and then imma bulk up, like controlled bulk tho to limit fat increase as much as possible. I just keep trying to play it off as they only think this cause I was fat so now as I drop body fat it's making me look skinny as my skin and body tightens. I keep arguing with them about it and say they just don't understand that you need to strip off the fat and sometimes it makes u a bit smaller but it's prep for a gain

Hell don't even bother. They would be shocked when they see you next year, Just cut in winters and bulk in summers. Stay consistent, do it for you. Let em bitch

[Asker]

Yea cheers, just so disheartening and worries u a bit when they are like ur getting too skinny, I'm far far from skinny, some people just don't understand the amount of work and sacrifice that u put in and them knocking it is a huge knock to u

[BroBroncoski]

You are cutting and you just started out so its suppose to happen, But just wait till year and see em getting shocked. Don't listen to them , believe me it happens to everyone of us when we start but year later they'll get it lol Let em bitch
