Joe asked in HealthDiet & Fitness · 1 decade ago

I need help, please...?

I have a body fat percentage somewhere in the 8-9% range, and I recently (about a month ago) began a program intended to build mass. My arms and chest are noticeably bigger than before, but my six pack is also noticeably less defined... Is this a result of the increased intake and less cardio? (football just ended last friday, so id normally have 3 hours of football practice a day, whereas now all i do is lift and run a few miles occasionally). I also came down with the flu this past weekend... would that have an effect on how cut I am? (its been like 5 days)

    Hi Dear

    You have to have a balanced diet to see well defined abbs

    If you stop moving like you used to, then most likely due to you not repeating the physical exercises, your body will lose all the muscle mass you've worked hard for.
