Hey, I am down to 10% BF and the top two sections of abs are coming through, although I have to flex them a little to properly bring them out. I think the muscles should be a bit more defined by now....been working hard on diet and training for the past 4 months on them, went from 16/17% body fat downwards. I read a few articles that said when you get down to around 10% body fat you can do a little light ab session everyday on the short term to bring them out a bit more. Thoughts? Over training is the first thing I thought but wanted to see if anyone does this. I know Gregg Plitt does some everyday and he is in ridiculous shape. Currently I work them Monday Wednesday and Friday already, do you reckon it would be silly to do a 1/4 session in between days?

Down to 10% BF, safe to do small ab work everyday? Just chuck in the ab work and see what happens, I wouldn't train them everyday as they will need as much time as any other muscle to recover. Do a mix of ab excercise twice a week with a good day or two in between.
Down to 10% BF, safe to do small ab work everyday? lol measured how? and by whom? if calipers where did they learn to do it? here's a useful bodyfat guide bodyfat.jpg most people VASTLY underestimate their bodyfat levels, and if you had it done via electro impedance they are b.s, and unless someone really knows what they're doing with calipers they're easy to screw up too Seeing a hazy ab, in perfect downlightin, when flexed does not = 10%
