jnellie Posts: 924 Joined: 2002/02/24	2002/06/22, 09:04 PM Robert so what are the chances of seeing my six pack after the ab blast.......
Philia2 Posts: 4,078 Joined: 2001/10/19	2002/06/23, 01:48 AM They are good jnellie, if you stick to the diet as well. The most difficult part to show is the lower ab muscles (the "V") Here the body fat % has to be quite low..... Hi pg, finally a good news for us ladies lol It's actually easier for us (than for the men) to get a nice 6 pack. Why? Because our fat seems to stay on the thighs and bum (not really THAT great thou) and we loose easier the fat on our tummy. Hmmmmmm so wear a skirt but only a veeeery short T-shirt!!!!! (o: -------------- - Nina :o) La vie est toujours aussi belle.....
prettygentle Posts: 142 Joined: 2002/06/12	2002/06/23, 06:41 PM Well, isn't that something to look forward to... hehehe -------------- pg *The prettygentleone isn't so gentle anymore! ^v^ --The second you quit, then it's official - you're a failure.
