How do I get a flat stomach

[frairi57]

Hi, can anybody help me t out there that is reading this. Here is my problem: I lift weights everyday with no problems, however my stomach bows outward . I am not fat and I have a six pack, but my stomach doesn't lay flat it has a bit of a bow to it. You can see the muscles in my stomach but it bows outward a bit it is not flat like a lot of guys are. Can someone please tell me what type of exercise I can do to make my stomach flat. I know it is not bloating. I did try those inhales exercises where you suck your stomach in real tight and hold it for a minute, but it does not work. There must be some type of muscle I'm not working that I need to work that will help my stomach be more flat. If someone can please help me I would be greatly, greatly, appreciative. Frank

Diet and cardio, stomach vacuums planks with variations, bird dogs. You need more core activation, not heavy ab exercises.

Hi there, not so sure about your current condition, but sometimes it is not always about fat and muscle. You may also check your spine structure. There is a condition called Lumbar hyperlordosis. It is a condition where there is an excessive curve of the lower spine, creating a C-shaped curve. So no matter how you work on your core, it won't get flat since your lumbar curves forward abnormally. This is just a hypothesis based on your description. Fixing your sitting position may also help. Or perhaps you may also consult a specialist to check your spine structure. I will publish an article regarding this condition, maybe later or early tomorrow.
