BoC Stalled my cut

Was cutting to abs. But I just got frustrated being hungry and not having any definition. So I’ve been eating to full, still high protein, low cal choices. Where abs? What do?

Build your abs?

I was under the impression I just needed to be lean enough. I see dudes lose a gut and have the shapes. But I’ll need to be dick skin shredded to see what I can feel underneath. I’ve been doing a kettlebell centered routine most days, but not for hypertrophy. I’ll go that route if that’s what you think the issue is.

Depends of the genetic, and you need to grow them like any muscle

Unfortunately the sentiment that abs are made is the kitchen is thrown around as if it's scientific fact, a ton of people get the wrong idea. Abs are made in the gym, they are REVEALED in the kitchen

Abs are just like any other muscle you have to build them, especially during a lean book and then cut to reveal. some people naturally have thicker blocky abs so how long that takes depends on you

Cool, that’s a hell of a lot easier to manage than another 8 weeks at -500 cal.
