Go to Amazon and buy some bf calipers. You can get some on there for less than $10.00 shipped, so you won't need to guess.

Sorry guys I think he's higher than 11. I think more around 13%.

Hey y'all about how often should I workout abs???

 

[ThunderHumper]

Either once a week like every other muscle, or never

Btw obliques require more attention than abs. Abs help stabilize most heavy compounds

Hey y'all about how often should I workout abs???

Keep in mind that movements like squat, deadlift and standing military press work your abs. In the beginning I would do direct ab work 1-2 times per week with varied movements and didn't add a lot of weight. When I started heavy direct ab work, they really took off. Now I'll occasionally throw some hanging leg raises or plate twists in for a training block, but my 1 direct ab standby is heavy slantboard sit-up's. I do 5 sets of 5 reps with the heaviest dumbell possible held BEHIND my head.

What these guys said. I rarely do any direct ab work. Once you take the fat off you'll realise the ab development isn't the problem but the layer of fat obfuscating their view.

12%

Go to bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator

Follow the steps for the BF formula for men. This should be a good start to get a more accurate idea. IMO, as you get leaner it is less accurate like off by as much as 1-1.5%

Hope this helps, you will need waist measurement and weight to calculate.
