How To Get a Six Pack - If you ever want to see
your six pack of abs, DIETING is the only way! Many people will
dispute this, but I'm sorry, it's the truth. No amount of crunches, abdominal
gadgets or special hanging abdominal exercises will make your abs magically
appear. You cannot spot reduce. In other words, you can't burn abdominal fat
simply by doing abdominal exercises. Your body doesn't work that way. If fat is
covering your abs, implementing a consistent fat loss diet, coupled with
moderate exercise is the only way to reveal your six pack.
Consistent Exercise
(Aerobic and Resistance)
To accelerate your fat
loss and increase your muscle mass, you need to train with weights. The
benefits of weight training are so positive; one cannot understand why everyone
is not doing it. For example, it helps to increase your muscle mass. This is
essential because muscle burns more calories than fat, so the more muscle mass
you have the faster your metabolism will be. Weight training also tones up your
existing muscle, giving you a more shapely looking body. With the right
exercises, it can broaden your shoulders, trim your waist, tone your thighs and
broaden your chest. As an added bonus, weight training also helps to strengthen
your bones and tendons, which is essential for helping to prevent injury as we age.
Dont Over Train
Stop training so often.
Some people still believe that the more training means the more muscle with
increased fat loss. Not true. It doesn't work that way. Working out too often does
not allow your muscles the necessary time to recuperate. Not only will you not
gain any muscle, but you will be setting yourself up for chronic injuries from
over training. Improper diet and over training are two reasons why most people
never get beyond an average physique. People who workout 5-6 days per week for
2 hours or more each day always look the
same.
Perform Aerobic
Exercise Regularly
To shed the fat
quickly, aerobic exercise is essential -- it is not an option. Many people will
begin to see results just from this alone. It not only helps to burn fat and
calories during the actual time you are exercising, but it also elevates your
metabolism for hours afterwards. This leads to greater calorie burning and fat
loss throughout the day. Any exercise that elevates your heart rate for about
30-45 minutes will do. When choosing an exercise, make sure that it keeps your
heart rate elevated consistently without breaks. Some "stop & go"
sports like basketball or football, are not adequate candidates for our
purposes. These games have too many pauses, breaks and periods of low activity.
They will not keep your heart rate elevated long enough to burn much fat or elevate
your metabolism. If you are a beginner, start out slowly. Exercise at a
moderate pace for about 15 minutes, no more than three times per week. Keep
your heart rate around 130-140 beats per minute. Eventually your goal will be
to work up to 30-45 minutes of moderate-high intensity cardio 3-4 times per
week.
The best way to lose
fat
Honestly, if you are
tired of being overweight and "soft," or if you desperately just want
to develop your "six pack," then you must educate yourself and get
serious about changing your body. It has to become a priority in your life (at
least until you reach your goal). There are no quick fixes, however if you use
the right information, you will be able to make dramatic changes to your
physical appearance in a very short period of time.
