How the hell do I get abs if I'm already skinny. I can't just lose more weight.
>>36399565
Do exercises which make your ab muscles bigger.
>>36399574
Literally what besides crunches?
>>36399565
post stomach.
You prbably should work on core. if you're skinny, you should work on everything
>>36399565
no joke, do SS GOMAD and put on like 50-75lbs. Once you achieve that, start a cut and drop your BF% to like 10%. You're welcome. Thank me in 2 years.
>>36399605
literally anything besides crunches. Do heavy squats and deadlifts, do weighted situps, etc etc etc
>>36399605
>Literally what besides crunches?
Crunches are literally the shittiest ab exercise
Do the following:
Planks
Ab roller
Hanging leg raises or windshield wipers
>>36399605
Get an ab wheel, do the plank for long periods of time, do stomach vacuum while you're sitting around doing nothing, do hanging leg raises.
I have better abs than 99% of the people I meet and this works for me. I didn't find compounds were enough to get the look I really wanted.
>>36399605
ab wheel, bicycle shit, that shit at the dip station. my gymbro does something where you get a 45lb plate and twist. heavy compounds hit core too and everything in the world
>>36399614
>get fat as fuck
/fit/ please. Dude is going to end up like 25% bodyfat and have to cut for 6 months to be decent looking while losing tons of gains.
>>36399565
Make your abs bigger and stronger.
Do this after every workout:

See you in 4+ months.
>>36399670
as opposed to having zero gains, 18%bf and still no abs.

>i'm already skinny
>i don't have abs
than you aren't skinny, you're hungry skeleton.
there is a big difference.
Skinny dictates your body fat, sub 14% you will form abs. at 11-12% you will have them showing. You're just lucky that your fat is more distributed, making you look skinny, but it's still there.
Keep losing weight, eat more protein and build muscles.
don't do exercises specifically for abs more than once a week. if your abs begin to stick out it will make you look pot bellied(bear mode) which if you don't have the upper body or legs to match looks silly.
anyone telling to do X workout and they don't involve heavy weights is wasting your time.
>>36399612

I'm 6'4 so forgive the lank. I'm in the middle of a light cut for summer, so I'll be quite a bit more shredded by the time anyone sees these.
>>36399773
>skinny
Aaaahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!!!!!!
>>36399776
Mirin all but forearms desu. Especially for a lanklet, props
>>36399825
Thanks man, it wasn't easy, especially as you say as a lanklet.
I honestly have no idea what to do about my forearms. They're not shit right near my elbow, but my forearm just goes on forever. I've got like a solid foot of arm that doesn't really have any muscle to build on.
Oh well, pretty minor complaint.
>>36399776
Lanklet relying on low Bf to look muscular. You probably look like a semi-muscular skeleton desu. Arms look no bigger than 13 inches.
>>36399776
HAHAHAAHAHAHA sick 13 inch guns bro bet the ladies just love how they can touch their fingers when feeling up your arms
>>36399776
THANK YOU HUNGRY SKELETON
>>36399773
>LMAO
You lift 1 1/2 lbs dumbells or something
>>36400269
>>36400358
>>36400372
I could probably stand to put on some more mass. I'll likely do another bulk in the winter.
I was actually curious so I just measured, you were really close they're 14 inches.
Thanks for the feedback. I'm willing to give you feedback as well if you'd like to post a body shot.
Youre not skinny because you have an extremely low bf%, youre skinny because you sat around doing nothing for years so you have the muscle mass of a 14 year old. Unfortunately if you lose weight right now youll look like youre dying. Put on some lean gains while doing the ab wheel and stomach vacuums. Once you hit about over 10lb of your goal weight cut until youre at your goal weight. You will likely have some abs
>>36399682
Do this. It's the only real helpful reply given.
>>36399682
>>36400623
>decline weighted crunches
that shit looks fucking retarded
Just do ab wheel every morning with stomach vacuums. That is plenty. If you really want to go above and beyond leg raises are fine but they seem unnecessary to me if youre doing the other two
>>36399776
>All the people hating
if girls see abs thats all they really care about, let em hate lanklet bro
>>36399773
God, why are standards for modern men so low? In what world does this qualifies as "skinny"
At best this should be average
>>36399773
My Japanese grandmother would tell you, "you fat now. No more cheese or candy."
>>36400789
I'm really not worried about it, judging by the posting style it's the same dude 3 times. And even if not, I like how I look and I worked hard to get here plus like you said I have no problem attracting women.
Thank you regardless though.
>>36400669
The fuck are stomach vacuums?
>>36400912
It would probably be best to google it. But basically blow the air out of your lungs and try to pull your stomach flat against your spine. You should feel it deep in your abs.
>>36399652
I'm sorry but who is this hot mamma?
>>36399773
Don't listen to the /plg/ faggots saying this isn't "skinny". You're skinny, but above that you're dyel as fuck. Fucking lift. And eat. Do ab work if you want to but it really won't make much of a difference. You'll get plenty of ab workout from squats and every other normal lift that is in the sticky. For fuck's sake lift and eat.
>>36399565

>congrats now you are on of those star athletes people will shout TALLENT and other buzzwords at you like you are magician muscle wizard because the industry is so fucked the idea of a novice gaining strength gains and mass is unheard of.
>>36399773

jesus christ read the fucking sticky you tiny ass newfag. You aren't even at a highschool level body and I bet you do meme training because you saw a buddy of yours who was at a higher level of training then you doing it for fucks sake you dirty novice go lift.
>>36399902
Wrist roller nigga. Farmer walks, gripper training. Bucket of rice or sand to train opening your hand
>>36401080
sukie
>>36401336
I tried using a grip trainer for a while, it didn't seem to have any effect on the part of my arm from my wrist to about halfway to my elbow.
I'll give it another shot and try the other things you mentioned though. Thanks.
>>36399902
Fellow lanklet, try the rope trainer for forearms
maybe if you'd exercise your abs you'd induce a thing called hypertrophy which makes the size of your muscles grow
>>36401798
Oky doke, I'll give that a shit too. Thanks fella.
>>36399773
ur purfet juz th w8 u r bb
>>36399776
You look great, and I'm not even memeing you.
All the 'skeleton' comments are from retards who think the beauty ideal is being some fatass ball of lard who can 'totally fight bears bare handed', but still looks shittier than a 60 years fat old man to anyone that isn't from an anime image board.
You're pretty much the poster-boy for what girls mean when they say they like "Fit guys".
Don't fall for the bulking and 'putting on mass' meme, unless you want to attract literal homosexuals you're on the right track already.

Yohimbine, nigga.
Read this here infopic.
while the concept of abs is up what exactly are stomach vaccums good for? are there any downsides?
>>36399776
weight?
>>36402011
Thanks, this is probably the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me online.
Yeah I didn't take them too seriously as you can see up above, I get hated on fairly often but I think it's generally from people who would swap bodies with me if they could, so I don't take it to heart.
Plus I know people lift for different reasons, I'm sure they could crush all my PRs, but I'm generally lifting for aesthetics.
I appreciate the advice, I'm actually on a light cut right now to be more shredded for the summer as that seems to pull more women than bulk in my experience. It's funny you would mention the homosexual bit, I get hit on by by guys fairly often as it is. I'll likely continue putting on a few lbs of muscle a year like I have been, I'm not in any hurry, it's more of a marathon than a sprint for me, I just like fitness.
Thanks again, and best of luck with your own lifting goals.
>>36402180
jesus you didn't have to give an acceptance speech you giant cocksmoking faggot
>>36402152
I'm gonna be honest, I haven't weighed myself in like two years. When I was first trying to put on weight I kept getting discouraged when the number was going up too slow, so I just started eyeballing and lifting for aesthetics.
Based on how I look compared to pictures of me where I knew my weight I would ballpark myself somewhere around 180ish.
>>36402243
Yeah probably not, I guess I'm just the type to go above and beyond the call of duty. I'm willing to give you some tips if you'd like.
>>36402262

This is body dysmorphia. That is a gr8 body no homo and any girl would legitimately like to fug if you are indeed 6'4.
>>36402826
I think if I had body dysmorphia I would hate myself, I think if you're good but want to be better that's normal right? You don't just wake up one day say "welp I made it, time to never lift again" and call it a day.
And yeah I am, you can probably tell by how lanky my arms are. Or the door handle being at my hipbone, are those standardized?

>>36399565
You are sir are a stupid ass dumb ass. Abs are a muscle..... figure it out.
>>36399605
Heavy squats and heavy deadlifts and powe cleans. These three movements will give you the best abs possible have fun never reaching your goal if you dont belive me
>>36403548
I don't think I agree man. I mean the definitely make the foundation, but I found tossing some isolation accessories on top of compounds really makes a difference.
>>36399776
How long have you been lifting anon?
>>36403598
I'm 27 now, I started lifting more seriously when I was around 20.
I started actually eating enough to put on weight 2 years or so ago. I was just shredded as hell with almost no size at all for the first 5 years or so, I struggle with eating enough.
I realize you didn't ask for an essay but the last guy got really discouraged when I said 7 years, so I thought I would add that disclaimer this time.
>>36403616
I'm 18 but I'm like OP. Realistically, if I eat "well", how long would it take for never get to your level?
New goal desu.
>>36399776
not gonna pretend you're not aesthetic but where are your triceps
>>36403725
I'll assume you meant me to instead of never.
Uh, it's hard to say at 18 you're probably still growing. I had a massive amount of trouble putting on much size until I was totally done with that.
I also snapped my shit more than once which held me back. If you're a tall lifter I'd recommend reading https://www.t-nation.com/training/truth-for-tall-lifters. That would have saved me a lot of time and injuries.
To answer your question, you could likely be my size or bigger by the time you're 21 or 22 if you're diligent. I'm trying to factor in time for you growing there as well, it could be even quicker.
>>36403751
I undertrained one of my tricep heads, I forget which one. Working on evening it out now.
>>36399773
Nice childbearing hips you have there faggot.

But honestly thanks. Your done of the nicest people I talked to so far here.
>>36403827
No sorry dude.
>>36403830
Oh shit if you're that height you'll probably hit where I'm at quite a bit faster then. I have to put on a ton of mass with this frame for it to be noticeable. You could probably crush me by 22 if you keep at 'er.
Uh some of the stuff in that article is good for everyone so it might be worth a read either way. No pressure though.
No problem, I think I'm probably a bit older than a lot of posters, I also don't hate myself and I don't feel like I have anything to prove. I just like helping people get better at my hobby.
>>36403777
What the fuck was going on in this picture? Are the men in black pulling up to you while you were taking it?
>>36404023
If you're talking about the lights, I'm just a retard when it comes to taking photos, I probably left the flash on. That's also why I have no back photos, I fucked it up about 10 times and then gave up for the night.
>>36399614
Do SS/SL/Greyskull/etc, count calories, eat at a little over maintenance, make sure you are sleeping right and getting as many protons as you need. Bulk & cut is a meme except for roiders.
You don't have to get fat.
After ~6-9 months or so when you have a good muscle base switch to a PPL routine.
>>36403548
It's bullshit and broscience. Everybody knows that even in push ups abs work much harder than in squats
>>36403827
Danny?
>>36399776
You look good, good proportions and insertions.
If you did a good bulk then cut, you would look great
>worried abt abs when you have no muscle anywhere else
>>36404506
Yeah likely going to bulk over the winter again. I'm fine with taking it slow, I prefer the lean look.
Thanks though, I appreciate the feedback.
>>36399565
