The last time my abs were ripped was my senior year in high school as I weighed 195 and looked good. My Freshman year in college I put on 10 lbs and never saw my abs again. Most of my adult life I was 230 lbs and I had a bit of a spare tire. I just saw an info commercial for hip hop abs, and I thought to myself did I every have the desire to go back to my senior year in high school and see the rip of my abs. I must be the exception, but I am very comfortable in my mature body. I never had a desire to see my abs. I have always questioned the extremes folks attempt for some idea of what beauty is........I must admit I have no sexual attraction to a female who has ripped abs, nor have I every found much respect for a male who needs to spend time trying to go back to high school. Our bodies change and our mind hopefully matures, but this obsession with being skinny in America is not healthy. I understand being physically fit for good health, I do not understand the obsession to take your body back to when you were 18.
