Hey, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Chris, I'm 13(14 in December) 5'5'' and I weigh 111.5-114lbs depending on the day. Anyways, I've been trying to get a six pack since early summer because of this girl I like... Of course, at first I was doing it all wrong. I was going up all the way instead of just a little bit off the ground...
Anyways, I have no idea what my fat % is. I'm pretty small(my BMI is 18.6.. That's for adults though) If someone could tell me how to find out my fat % I'd be grateful.. Anywho, back on subject, I've been doing 5-10 reps of 20 crunches per night off and on through the summer. I haven't seen much effect so far so I'm getting discouraged. Since school started, every night I've been doing 5-10 reps of 20 and still nothing. I look small, kind of like Tim14's pic, but no signs of a six pack......
Maybe I have a thin layer of fat near my abs that's not very visible but is still there? What am I doing wrong? Am I too fat? Am I doing the crunchs wrong? (I put my knees bent and life myself so my lower back is still on the ground and make my stomach tight) Is it because I only started doing them regularly this month? Shouldn't I see something other than a flat stomach and a bit of a circle around my abs with the right lighting by now!? I mean, I know 2 and a half weeks isn't long, but I've been going steady for those 2 and a half weeks and off and on for like 3months(meaning did about 200 crunchs in all 1 week, 800 the next week 1000the next week 100the next 0 the next)...
Should I go on a diet? Change my routine? Or what..? Help
