Having a six pack is bare minimum in 2025

It's quite a halo but almost every guy has it nowadays

western standards are now skinny fat and dad bod .. where the hell do u see people with abs ? its still a mega halo during outdoor parties, festivals

I disagree, whilst bare minimum for a one night stand, not for a relationship

My take: Six-packs are not the norm in most real-life environments. Despite what social media might imply, the average guy walking around at a music festival, beach, or party is not shredded. The average is often skinny-fat, soft lean, or dad bod—and that’s become socially acceptable, even preferred by some.


So yeah, if you’ve got visible abs, especially clean, dry, lean abs in natural lighting, you're absolutely an outlier. It's not just "bare minimum"—it's still a huge aesthetic flex in 90% of public settings. People will notice, consciously or not.


Calling abs the "bare minimum" is online delusion, probably from fitness bubble echo chambers. In the real world, having visible abs is still elite-tier physique signaling—especially when shirtless in daylight.

Most gymcel has a visible 6 pack, they use the gym as an excuse to eat like dogshit.

Literally no normal guy has them these days.

Almost every guy? lol nah, six packs still stand out in a sea of dad bods and skinny fat cucks.

I have married women oogling at me at the pool right in front of their balding skinny fat husbands.

Lacking one on tinder is an instant disqualifier tbh.
