      lots of people end up having asymmetrical abs.

      But I thought asymmetrical abs were actually dependant on the individual's genetics.  :blink:

        Complicated subject - while it is true that ''abs come from the kitchen'', some people - especially those who have been overweight in the past might never be able to have abs like some of the porn stars. The fat cells in your body can grow and shrink, they can also split themselves - but they don't disappear / die off - in extreme cases, unfortunately, liposuction may be necessary - now keep in mind that is only for those who have been very overweight.
        Everybody has abs and with a low enough of a fat percentage - abs do get visible.
        Now with exercise and proper form - especially ''core exercises'' would develop your abs and make them look larger / more defined - but please do keep in mind that this is exactly why PROPER FORM during exercising is important - lots of people end up having asymmetrical abs.
        Take care and don't worry about it that much - abs are nice to look at - but a bit of a tummy is always nice to touch 😛

        both are correct. you have to be genetically lucky to be able to show your abs before reaching 12% body fat, like winning the lottery lucky. 12% is not a solid number to build on however, nor is it actually healthier. everyone's body is different so it my take you more or maybe less to show your abs and subsequently develop them.

        you know what they say; abs in a thin person (lanky) is not really impressive.
