I am a 6'0" male who is an ectomorph. I am 39 years old, was skinny growing up, but had allowed lots of weight gain in my 30's.
I weighed 180+ in the Fall of 2009. I got serious about diet, weightlifting, and cardio in January 2010. I am now down to 157 pounds.
I got to use an expensive body fat caliper last night for the first time. If I did my measurements correctly I am at 11% body fat.
My problem: I still have a small roll around my lower abdomen. You can't see any six pack. You can just start to see some muscles in my upper abdomen possibly.
Did I measure incorrectly? Or will it just take less body fat to see my abdominal muscles?
What percentage will I need to be to see my abdominals? How long to get there? Like I said I have the correct diet. Lots of lean protein, fruits, vegetables and fiber. I am counting calories at every meal.
Your help and info is greatly appreciated!!!
