I've heard under 10% is when your abs start showing, and at 6% and less is when they are pretty shredded. I'm curious what others think too.

I am not really positive I measured my BF% on a Tanita scale and I weighed 117.5 with 7% bodyfat. I was pretty proud of myself I guess... I think my guns are growing big time.

I was gonna make fun of you then realised your a girl way to go. I sat there thinking this guy really needs to lift ALOT more to be happy, details always get in the way of my good insults

i started to really see mine at 10, im at 8'ish right now and they are nice. im gonna shoot for 6 to see how sick it looks. then ill try to grow a bit. losing close to 15 lbs was disheartening at first but seeing the abs again is like seeing an old friend. hehe.
