6'3 - 175 pounds

im 175 and mine look like freakin bricks


ive been up 185 and they were there



if you loose alot of weight at once, it may take some time, and isometric flexing in mirror, for the fat to equalize and looser skin to contract into a pleasing place

its october man
keep the BF moderate and the training plan intense

come march start a hardcore cut, summer time shirtless weather ( june, july, aug, sept) is the time to be concerned with "abs"

right now is the time to be concerned with overall health
let your skin and subcutaneous fat catch up with your the muscular frame you have built

oh let me correct myself

the "proper weight" is not easily determined

10% bf is a pretty basic point of reference for a male to have "abs"

thats BODY FAT not BMI

one could be 300lbs and have abs
or 120lbs and not

This +1. Weight has nothing to do with it, really.

Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
