not everyone can get it. I think if people worked out hard enough they can get close, but not everyone can do it.
the four or six pac, maybe another story......................

I'm not saying that everyone has the will power to do it, I'm saying its not just genetics that deturmin weather or not you have the abbility of getting your body fat low enough to have a visible 6-8 pack. Originally Posted by wetnwild

The original question was about getting an 8-pack, not a 6 or 8-pack. Originally Posted by Scotty the Body

I think probably anyone could get one if they got to a low enough body fat, in theory. However, practically speaking this isn't true. Someone with poor genetics may have to reach near-death body fat levels to achieve that look.

100 PERCENT TRUE! look at lots of famous bodybuilders some only have 4 packs. and its obvious that they couldnt get another two. off the top of my head, i think frank zane and arnold both fall into this category. Originally Posted by ForemanRules

I got told a short while ago that 8 packs cannot be achieved and that the top abdominal muscles near ur pectorals dont count, and that u can have either 6 or 12?
