I so concord. Guys who are not active but having vast muscles are loathly. muscles are junked meat if you don’t hump places to use them (e.g. in sports). Girls are hunting for athletic guys, not gym nerds. If you’re not gymnastic, then terminate disagreeable to get buffed honourable to seizure grouping. it’s not majestic at all!!

The fact of the matter is…you don’t need to spend a crazy amount of time in the gym or obsess to have 6-pack or even 8-pack abs. I love to work out and find going to the gym pleasurable. However with working full time in an office all day and going to school at night working on my masters… there is no time for the gym. I packed on about 15 pounds in the mid section (Beer) when I fell out of my routine. However, I have been doing core strengthening exercises at home 20 minutes a day as well as 20 minutes of cardio first thing in the morning and I am more ripped and in better shape then when I went to the gym and worked out 1-2 hours a day! The fact is…to get the body you want, you don’t have to be a gym-fly, just eat right and use muscle targeting exercises. As always…if everyone in the world isn’t doing 20 minutes of cardio a day….they are just lazy! It helps promote health and vitality in many ways! People in America always want something, but are very rarely willing to do the work it takes to get it. I take pride in my body…because i eat right and work to keep it healthy and in shape, even with my crazy schedule. People here want to eat double cheese burgers all week and then buy a quick fix diet supplement and get pissed when it doesn’t work. And BTW Ryan :) I agree!

I did not read a single word of this article beyond the title and I won’t.
I agree that there is much more to life than 6pack abs. I have a strong inclination that this article is making that statement in attempt to comfort the men who don’t have great genetics in regards to body fat storage or simply choose not to dedicate themselves to strict diets, can’t commit to aggressive workout routines, have a problem only sleeping with hot women, and want to be one of those guys who wears a tshirt at beach.
Don’t have it, don’t fret, life isn’t over. But that doesn’t mean you should try and put the washboarded population in a class that would make them seem like they don’t have their priorities in line.

This is actually sad to read, the idea is not to get ripped, getting ripped comes with the loving ability of exercise. I play hockey, I am in the type of shape that those guys at the top are in, I like to eat healthy because it makes me feel great, not because I am giving up my six dollar burger at Carl’s, If I want to go have one I’ll go get one, the point is I don’t want one. Sounds to me like you have no willpower at all my friend, and the girls do like a six pack, it’s true, it’s true.

I so agree. Guys who are not athletic but having huge muscles are disgusting. muscles are useless meat if you don’t have places to use them (e.g. in sports). Girls are looking for athletic guys, not gym nerds. If you’re not athletic, then stop trying to get buffed just to impress people. it’s not impressive at all!!

Man, the comments on this post are so moronic that they unfortunately add weight to the stereotype of the dumb meathead. They apparently need to be spending less time at the gym and more time reading books. All this dude is saying is that making six pack abs your goal is not a good goal. And really, it’s not. An above commenter mentioned that no one yet had answered the question of why-why make six pack abs a goal. It’s not related to your fitness or health level, so why? I work out 6 times a week for an hour and I don’t have six pack abs. I’m just an average looking bloke and I’ve had no problem with the ladies.

Came across this article today-it basically says the same thing-the obsession with six pack abs is just a recent cultural thing-
