Do I have an ab crack or just a random line?

[Sjenson21]

I workout six times a week doing body pump, body attack, combat and grit. I’m 36 and had a baby last year. I’m quite happy with my figure, size 8. Trying to work at my slight jelly belly - took a progress pic and wondered if the line is an ab crack or if this is normal?

No idea what an 'ab crack' is

You look to be in great shape. Strong, healthy & lean

Ab crack

You look amazing

Also no idea about an ab crack.

You look fine. As you know.

Not sure what an ab crack is but you look normal for someone who isn’t overweight and carrying too much fat.

Oh it's you. We've not seen you in a bikini for a while but here you are to remedy that.

Dafuq is an ab crack?

@Balaur what do you mean? I’ve never posted a bikini pic before. Just wanted to know if the line was any sign of abs or ab crack.

Stop looking at superficial crap on Instagram and posting pictures of your body online for validation.

Smug OP alert. Look at meeee! It's so depressing that this has become normal. 😞

Of course you know your body is amazing. I'd be so proud if that was my body and would flaunt it online too!

It certainly looks like there is one starting, I had a quick look at mine so keep at and you'll get there!

There's a poster who regularly posts pictures of themselves in a bikini, I assumed it was you, my mistake.

I know nowt of ab cracks, now arse cracks, that's a different matter....

Lovely to have the time and energy to to work out 6x week. Well done, you look amazing! 👏 👏

It looks like the one I had but you need to check with a physio to be sure. But they may prescribe rest while they ask you to do specific exercises to fix it because it can cause problems if not fixed. I used to lift weights and climb / boulder, ignored mine, and now it feels like I’m starting from scratch with my core strength.

From that article you just linked to o/p…

You heard it: The ab crack isn't worth obsessing over. Time to move on to the next trend

@Ylvamoon I get up at 5.30am for my workouts, before my baby wakes and I need to get ready for full time work!

It's a stealth boast, that's what it is! Only kidding lovely figure OP

You look great OP, no idea what an ab crack is though 😆

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments! After a terrible year splitting up with my ex I’m feeling so much better about life and my body. I honestly wasn’t showing off, I’m quite reserved but I really didn’t know what this line was so thought I’d ask you fitness people! One day I’ll have abs (when I give up Magnums and wine)

I have the same at any bmi from slightly overweight down through the healthy range. I never assumed it was visible abs, just the way my fat attaches to my abs! clearly I should spend more time on Instagram

you've worked hard for your abs crack

Its not something that you just get or have as a female and blardy well done.

Yes you can be smug and there is no harm in that when its through grit and determination

I didn’t know these things have names! Are you talking about the horizontal or vertical line? Either one looks great!

OP is love to do my workouts in the morning but I can’t get the motivation/have the time?
What is your morning routine?
Do you find it is a rush getting showered and changed etc?
