Are ab workouts a waste of time?
>>77059282yes. learn to diet faggot
>>77059282Yes to be fair... unless you're trying to perform calistenics moves
>>77059282>>77059284Imagine if people talked about any other muscle the way they talk about abs."Bruh, you're squatting? Haha you won't even see quad striations until you get to 8% bf. Quads are made in the kitchen."Ab exercises are good, and will make your abs look better when you finally cut. They're not going to magically make your abs show through an inch layer of fat though.
>>77059282Read the sticky
Please give abs routine
>>77059282Cut Abs are for fags and dykes
>>77059282I do them as supersets a lot. Good way to keep heart rate up and shit
>>77059282>those shoulderswhy post a roider and act like he got there on just diet and bodyW exercisesI have the exact body type of left, i had hope opening this thread.Kill yourself op
>>77059284>>77059312These fat faggots. >abs is pure diet. Strong abs=harder erections
>>77059412You speaking from experience?
>>77059282No, I do weighted dragon flags and they were the reason I have a 6 pack even though I'm probably 16% body fat.I do 3x12 with 30lbs and it's hard as fuck but my abs look amazing. I'm really excited to cut to see how they look with less flub.
>>77059282>Are ab workouts a waste of time?i honestly suspect that retarded women spamming ab workouts (along with "abs are made in the kitchen" becoming the new mantra) has caused an insane overcorrection where people swear you should never ever touch your core, and that passively training them via other movements is enough.i think it goes too far. imo, a heavily trained core will always look a thousand times better than some guy who did nothing other than leaning out
>>77059282>Are ab workouts a waste of time?For some people yes, for others no
>>77059478Yea straight people are fat
>>77059321>>77059321You are correct HOWEVER if you just use all free weights your abs will strengthen, grow and hypertophy with the rest of your body. Very rarely have I seen any massive jacked dude with no abs. The Rock has very flat abs - but that appears to be genetic, I doubt its the result of failing to do crunches. I do ZERO direct ab work and when I am lean enough my abs pop through. Squat 485 to depth, bench 375 with a pause and deadlift 550 no straps = abs. Standing overhead press causes thick abs (I press 235 x1)So its not that youre WRONG its just not necessary, so its a bit of a waste of time and energy.
