Sometimes I feel like I\u2019m giving my personal training advice to a wall. They always stare at me with a blank look in their eyes if I\u2019m not on the same bandwagon with them. For example, a college kid in his early 20\u2019s standing at 6\u20191\u201d weighing around 220 with 20% body fat asking me if I heard from some trainer who invented some exercise for abs that he stumbled on the internet and asked my opinion.<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #666699;\">To give you some background of the college student, he wants to lift heavy weight and gain more muscles. He is below average in term of strength in his peers.\u00a0 He asked if he should be doing these new abs exercise are worth his time. My explanation was no and that he is wasting his time. I gave him the simple logic and explain like it\u2019s have a sumo wrestling do ab exercises to get a 6 pack. There is no way, someone with over 20% body fat will ever have abs popping out at that percentage. Because no matter how much stronger your abs are with that high of a body fat percentage, your fat will still cover the abs.<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #666699;\">My suggestion was to only do abs when you hit single digit body fat percentage. In the end, I could tell by his reaction and feedback that he isn\u2019t going to listen. I don\u2019t know why I try to help people, who are stubborn in their own ways.<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2369\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2369\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2369\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/index.php\/2010\/11\/21\/lazy-sunday\/abs-me\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Abs-Me.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"600,514\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"PeterFever&amp;#8217;s Abs\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;PeterFever&amp;#8217;s Abs&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Abs-Me.jpg\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2369\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Abs-Me.jpg\" alt=\"PeterFever's Abs\" width=\"600\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Abs-Me.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog.peterfever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Abs-Me-300x257.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2369\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">PeterFever&#8217;s Abs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I\u2019m at the gym, I get these college students always asking me for advice.
