What body fat percentage is required to show abdominal muscles? How to train abdominal muscles?

For men, when they exercise, their body shape can be judged by their body fat percentage. So, what body fat percentage is sufficient to show abdominal muscles?

Men's body fat percentage and body shape characteristics

4%~6% The gluteus maximus develops striations (the ideal competitive state for bodybuilders).

7%~9% Back muscles are exposed, and the abdominal muscles and external oblique muscles are more clearly divided (competitive state of bodybuilders).

10%~12% (Ideal type) The fat in all parts of the body is not loose, and the abdominal muscles are clearly divided.

13%~15% (Ideal type) The fat in all parts of the body is basically not loose, the abdominal muscles begin to show, and the segmentation is not obvious.

16%~18% (ideal type) The fat in all parts of the body is loose in the waist and abdomen, and the abdominal muscles are not visible.

19%~21% The abdominal muscles are not visible and the waist circumference is usually 81~85 cm.

22%~24% The abdominal muscles are not visible and the waist circumference is usually 86~90 cm.

25%~27% The abdominal muscles are not visible and the waist circumference is usually 91~95 cm.

28%~30% The abdominal muscles are not visible and the waist circumference is usually 96~100 cm.

More than 31% have no visible abdominal muscles and their waist circumference is usually over 101 cm.

Tips for training abdominal muscles:

First move

Insist on running 1500 meters every day. This of course has no direct relationship with abdominal muscle training, but it is a preparation for abdominal muscle training. If conditions permit, it is best to run several laps of 1500 meters every day. Your overall muscles will have a qualitative leap.

The second approach

Every night before you go to bed, do sit-ups until you are too tired to move. It is best to sweat, so that it will be effective.

The third move

Lie on the bed, use your hands to reach your feet, let your body open and close like a book, and use your waist to support the movement. This is an upgraded version of sit-ups. It is more strenuous to do, and you must be extremely tired when doing it. Sitting down for a long time will have a much better effect than sit-ups.
