Default Re: probably a daft question, but ...

It’s down to how ligaments pass over the Rectus Abdomini, most people have a six pack but it’s possible to have 12!, or at the other extreme Boyer Coe had a single visible plate of muscle across his lower abs.

Width again is just down to genetics, mine are similar to yours very wide across the majority of the front of my stomach, I also have a split vertically through the middle of my upper two abs, mine are also pretty pronounced on my lower rib cage, makes my stomach look very blocky in a T-shirt but they show through when relaxed once lean so there’s a silver lining…

You look in cracking condition mate you should be justifiably proud of that!
