Work, man. Slip and fall accidents happen at gay bars, too. Mister Fister is a fantastic client.

Anyway, how heavy is your kettlebell? How many days a week do you do that routine?

It's 35lb. It's plenty heavy for what I want to do. I do this two to three times a week right now and I also row 2000m a day. During the winter I'll try to step it up to five times a week. Between this and my cycling it's all I can handle but I've only got one more week until I back it off.

This isn't the first sign. He recently also used the phrase "grotty to the max."

I've been thinking about trying to get a six pack for a while now, and have been working toward it for a few weeks. All I know if that you have to pound the abs hard and have very little body fat. Never paid much attention to a six pack, as I thought that was a goal for men, not so much women. So far all I am getting is row definition, not column definition, if you know what I mean. Now I read that you have to have good genetics to produce a nice ab rack, as evinced by this photo of 2 hardbodies, only one of which has good genetics.

If you know anything about this, please let me know. Is it genetics? Or do you have to lift a certain way? Any tips?

I believe you were asked to ignore her posts!

Just meant that I'm not sure how serious I am about this goal. Dont really know that much about it. If I find out that it's hard to get or maintain, maybe I'll just try something else.

Look around at Americans and people, in general. If you had to guess, is it hard to get or maintain six pack abs? Just take a wild swing on this one.

The shape of your abs once you peel away the fat is dictated by genetics, ie in the picture the guy on left has symmetric and square shaped abs, the guy on right has weird looking abs. The degree of definition is strictly due to body fat and muscle size, though. The guy on the right has probably a little bit higher body fat than guy on left, or he would look equally as ripped. Also, I believe it's a lot harder for females to get down to low enough body fat to have ripped abs than guys.

KL, while the level of fitness (and body fat) necessary to attain a six pack is very impressive, I have to say (sexist though it is) that a six pack on a woman is pretty far down on the list of physical attributes I'd find attractive (perhaps just ahead of a unibrow). I realize that coming from me this observation would make a six pack even more of a priority for most women.

if a body building enthusiast like jay santos is struggling to maintain his six pack, what hope is there for us common folk?

Agree, see this.

Amen brutha. I would post pics and bench press stats, but I don't want anyone to feel bad about themselves.

Don't listen to all the naysayers! They're not hard to get at all. All you really need is a PayPal account.
