Abs are the #1(ONE) muscles for aesthetics(srs)(rant)

I was at the pool today and noticed this one guy that was pretty skinny but he had ripped abs. Even with his lack of arms, chest and legs he looked more aesthetic than 99.99% of humans. Then i realized it, abs make or break a physique. You cant name 1 aesthetic body that doesnt have ripped abs. You just cant.
Im done with everything. From now on im cutting down to 150lbs(high 160's right now) this whole bs about being 12-15%bf as a natural is a JOKE. You need to be at least 10% to look aesthetic. Fuk legs, chest, arms and legs, i just want abs now.

Miscers will all call you a twink, but in real life you are correct. In the real world abs = he lifts and big fatceps = just another fat guy.

Honestly I'd say having good chest shape and overall v taper/proportions go a lot further than just having abs. Abs are like icing on the cake.

I feel you OP, ever since I cut down to 154 sub 10% I felt amazing and kept spinning my wheel when I break the 160's. always thought I need 5 more lbs till the end of the cut and that was at 167lbs. Very slow bulk it is for me forever now.

Tbh OP you and i both know that your are simply insecure,and you are using this as a reason to justify your insecurity. Nothing will change with your physical change.

Having abs because you're skinny is like a girl having big tits because she's fat. They don't count and no one cares.

Your abs are easily defeated with a shirt. gg

Meanwhile, with 20ish% body fat, in my shirt - my traps, my pecks, shoulders and lats will pop... and I'll look like the mass monster that ate your abs.

Lol strong insecurities OP. You need to accept yourself for how you look now. That doesn't mean get complacent and don't try to improve, but got damn you need to relax some you little fgt.

15% is a little high. would only take a month to shred to 12% if you do it right

Tbh I think triceps matter a lot more than abs in your daily life (SRS). Think about it you wear a shirt most of the time covering all your muscles except tri's and when your lean girls can tell.

Was at a bar wearing a polo and this white bish was grabbing my arms saying "oooh look he has that cool muscle" (was rubbing my tricep). I was about 9% bf and would be considered a twink by the misc with a shirt on.

Ever catch yourself Mirin the shredded brah at the gym with the joocy triceps? Yea thats why.

TLDR; low bf% + thicc triceps = aesthetics in daily life
Big facts only.

But then when the shirt comes off the fatceps, chit proportions and round belly is revealed. No thx lol


Also when im 150lbs i can achieve all the strength goals i dream of such as full planche, one arm chin up and maybe hefesto if im feeling adventurous. It will take me years to do all that at 15% bodyfat but at 10% it will be a matter of time.

The jacked bear look is on the up and up, plus you get to lift heavy and eat big. Twinks with little mass who eat like chicks and look flat as fuark are on the downslide big league.

The former lifestyle is also a LOT better unless you're scared of heavy weights.

EDIT: Refer to the Rocky pic above.
