it feels so fucking good to have a sixpack

[Man of Steel]

MOS,
  Just get them airbrushed on.  It worked for the guys in 300.  Let me know how it works out for you.  Maybe I will give it a try.

ps are you saying you are no longer a man???

Technically I am a male, but a man I am not.....not without a blistering set of thick, ripped visible abs.

[jaejonna]

Does anyone know how it feels to have a striated glute-ham combo? Especially when you show your fellow competitors as you hike up your thong ..hahahah oh the look on their faces must be priceless !!!



 

[Man of Steel]

Wow, but then again can you blame her? You obviously let yourself go too much, now you have to live with the consequences.

No I can't blame her.   When I let myself go and lost the abs I lost the essence of the man I once was.

[TommyBoy]

i know that this has been said SEVERAL times but i feel it should be said again

money will ALWAYS be greater than having abs, in lieu of the whole "what women prefer" argument

.....and that's coming from a guy with amazing abs

I've found rich chicks dig guys with abs. Works for me!

Also, I did the tabata sprints today after my shoulder workout...

Jogged a mile to get loose. Did the first 20 second dash and figured, "ok, this is do-able".

One mile later and 8 sprints I want to die. Just fall over and not wake up. Not like I could see anyways...

Feel damned good right now. Abs hurt like hell and so do my hams/glutes.

edit: Son of a bitch. I just took off my socks and my toes are bleeding.

ahah, yes Double J, show them what a real man is all about !!!

[Man of Steel]

MOS, you monstah !!!  Do you prefer to hide your abs under a layer of protection, like myself?

AHAHAHAAHAHAH!!  That's a big 10-4!

[Permabulker]

It is my experience that men with tremendous abs always make more money than their ab-less counterparts.

You have experience with men with tremendous abs???  FAG!

congrats on doing the FULL tabata the first time around

did you do it on a treadmill or on road/track?

[The Showstoppa]

AHAHAHAAHAHAH!!  That's a big 10-4!

I find it best to keep them concealed, keeps things easier.

jj, visible abs and a striated glute-ham tie-in does not make a man.........that makes a god.

I did it on the road/sidewalk. I may have had more than 10 seconds rest at time but never more than 15. I think anyone who has halfway decent running ability should do this every now and then. It is brutal...christ it is brutal. I don't know if I could do it every other day like the .5 mile sprints I was doing. Maybe every third or fourth. If I stay in the area I'm currently at I am definitely going to start making this a routine.

[Man of Steel]

I sometimes lay in a puddle of my filth and weep over my ab-less "physique".

doing it on the road/track is WAYYYY better than a treadmill

it is a tough BUT rewarding workout

I can do that workout 4x's a week BUT i built up to that intensity

trust me, keep at it and you will see no other way to do cardio

also, tabata is a theory more than just one type of exercise

if you ever want a challenge/great fat burning exercise, try doing "burpees" tabata style after your weight workout

What in the world is a "burpee"? Sounds like a power-lifting movement.

I hear you on the theory portion. I wasn't aware I trained real similar to this style at time.

[Man of Steel]

This thread has shown me that I am even less than the half-man I thought I was.


Effective immediately I'm going to bust open my Cybergenics kit, drink a half gallon of Hot Stuff and buy the first pair of red, ankle-high Otomix shoes I can find......I will get my abs back and become the man I know I can be.

Your wife would probably think something was up if you started dieting and worrying about abs.

then, there are my favorites, "chirpees"

NOTE: this guy is cheating too much on the chin.  You want to jump just enough to where you are at the normal starting postion, then pull up

THATS a burpee? They had me doing that bull crap with our waste-of-time mandatory PT sessions in the USAF. Sorry, but I will never voluntarily do those ever again. They aren't hard, just awkward as hell.

I believe they are called "8 counts" in the service, no?

they may or may not be "awkward" but they will yield amazing results.

Not to be rude, but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. They seem to much like a gimmick exercise. I would expect trainers who rely on swiss balls to preach volumes on these. Nothing against, you if it works it works. Just the feeling I get from them.

Then again, I'm more inclined to skip the fluff exercises and get straight to what works best. Screw it...sprints it is.

Thank you for taking responsibility & not blaming the cheeseburgers.
