Are Abs Purely Genetics?

Looks like some added muscle on your frame too, no? Are you the same weight in both pics?

Yeah that’s around 124lb to 154lb. So 30lb up between the 2 pictures.

old pic that second one, currently 173ish.

I don’t remember how tall you are but given that it looks like you are carrying muscle at 154 I’m going to guess 170 cm (5"7’)?

of course your abs didn’t show in that picture, you took need to turn around. that’s your back!

Jokes aside it was an image that I had easy access to yesterday while replying that still signalled ā€œleanā€.

A shame then that I didn’t

  1. stop there,
  2. and once stopped set a less aggressive weight gain goal of something like 1-2lbs per month.

Rather than yo-yoing to and fro. I’d be skinny with an athletic look rather than skinny fat which is my reality now.

5"9 buddy, I have a very slender frame and chicken legs. Lol

No offense, it just seemed like the best stab at getting the numbers together while

plays better with 5"9’.
