    Happened to me too recently. But only some days. It's fricking weird. I'm going to go ham with bicycle situps since I wasn't focusing on my core. Maybe 1000 every other day. Did a little less than 200 today since I need to build up to it, but can probably do it in a week or two.

      Why would you do so many reps? That builds endurance, not muscle. You wouldn't do 1000 bicep curls. Do some weighted core work and make sure it's heavy enough that you can only do sets of 8-15.

        I've actually done that before in my teen years and it made my arm cut as frick (20lb dumbbell 1800 times per arm without stopping once every 2 seconds).

      If you have a low enough body fat to have visible abs while flexing, you have a low enough bodyfat that you won't have a big fat gut when your abs are relaxed.

      When women are using the term "dad bod." They're talking about a muscular man who has slightly too high fat to be ripped but still low enough fat that he doesn't have a huge fat gut.

    It's a fricking nightmare. My arms and chest looks good, I work on my core regularly, but man... I guess I'll have to starve myself for a few weeks before going to the beach.

    Fricking hate that shit. Kinda had it for as long as I can remember. And the thing is, yes I do have APT, yes I do have a bit of belly fat but guess fricking what? None of those account for it fully AT ALL. I can fix apt if I consciously thrust the hips and I can clearly see the bulge of fat ON ALREADY bloated fricking stomach.
    But then I flex and it's perfect. And no, it's not FRICKING GASTRIC ISSUE - because, again, I CAN FLEX IT INTO PERFECTION.

    AND NO I'VE BEEN FLEXING IT CONSTANTLY WHEN OUTSIDE FOR YEARS AND IT DOESN'T DO SHIT. There, all moronic common """""""""""""""""""solutions""""""""""""""""" by people who never encountered this in their life dispelled.

    What the frick do I do? I don't believe a single bullshit le quirky non-strength non-hypertrophy exercise 5 times a day every day YouTube ethier tier """"""expert"""""" so no motivation to even try this stuff.

    Anybody fixed it?

      Okay, sure, just like every fat girl swears up and down that she doesn't eat much and calories just somehow must not work for her.
      You're not unique. Do vacuums. Vacuums aren't about removing material to make your abs visible, they're about changing the testing posture of your abs so that they default to a flexed position. It's a posture thing, just like standing up straight. If you have to consciously do it still, then you haven't done it enough.
      You wouldn't expect that, by standing up straight periodically (i.e.. doing vacuums/flexing abs periodically), your posture (i.e. abs) will look good when you're NOT standing up straight (i.e. not flexing).
      You have to keep doing it until it becomes your default, subconscious posture. That is, until your abs are always somewhat flexed without you having to think about it at all.

    >thread full of bro science bullshit
    the root cause of your problem is your god fricking awful POSTURE. If your posture is good your abdominal muscles will always be contracted passively otherwise you'd fall over backwards. But because your posture is shit your slouch forward and hence your abs never contract so your belly hangs out

            what are you talking about. the rectus abdominis (your abs) bring your ribcage and pelvis together, ie. when standing they stop your upper body from rotating backwards

          yeah I obviously have done that. Stomach PROTRUDES AS A MOTHERFRICKER STILL. Maybe slightly less if I thrust my hips to fix apt.

          Here's the thing. Show me one (1) guy who actually had this and actually fixed it like this or one (1) youtuber who knows his shit who advises it and I'll do it no question.
          So far all experts I've heard say that vacuums only make you better at vacuums.

                good posture should be as natural as standing, if you have to constantly "fix" your posture you're not doing it right.
                go see a physiotherapist, work out a game plan with them

                and another thing, work on massaging your lower legs, they're often neglected when it comes to this stuff. when i say massage i mean either grinding your knuckles (HARD) into the muscle or using a tennis ball or something, do this over and over again until it stops being sore (this will probably take a bit). you should notice immediately that you stand differently from before

    Problem is, people act like flexed is unflexed when it is flexed and pulled in etc. If you arent huge its easy to hold but its normal if youve eaten any decent amounts of carbs or veg etc to be like right unflexed, your abs if ripped should still be there just bigger and spread out relaxed.

    That's perfectly normal. You've been psyop'd by movies/TV/instagram/etc to think that those pictures of male models with shredded physiques and optimal lighting are what they look like totally relaxed just chilling somewhere, when actually they're hardcore flexing for all those pictures and poses

          bro, anyone taking a purposeful shirtless pic is, bare minimum, flexing while also trying to make it look like they're not flexing. And most likely with a pump right after the gym too. This isn't a cope, it's just a straight fact that you have to keep in mind when trying to make comparisons.

              You're the one who keeps bringing up coping fatties. I never said anything of the sort. What I'm pointing out is that people now have this idea that if you're muscular and low bodyfat, you're going to look like an instagram model just when you're walking around relaxed and unflexed.

        That's not how anatomy works. Having a belly doesn't mean you're fat. It means you have a bunch of organs sloshing around. There's a reason most people don't have abs and those that do describe the process as incredibly difficult. Your body does not want to be that lean and will fight you every step of the way. You are not unhealthy or whatever cause you have a belly.
