Have you ever been to the beach and seen some hot stud strutting his stuff? He's all broad shouldered and tanned with washboard abs and he's looking great and what's more, everybody else is looking at him too? And then you look at your own waist line and see a flabby tummy, bloated and pale, and you reach down and pinch your flab and think, man, how could I ever get a six pack like him? So you sign up at the gym, workout for a few weeks, and then quit, remaining as flabby as ever? In today's article we're going to give you the straight facts about how to get a six pack. So listen up!
The first hard truth that few people appreciate is that the only way to get your abdominal muscles to show and have definition is to remove the layer of fat that coves them. It doesn't matter if you do hundreds of sit ups and crunches and oblique raises if you are packing more than 10% body fat. If you are, then you will have abs of steel under a layer of fat, the result being that they are invisible. So listen up: the only way to show your abs off is to drop below 10% body fat. That means you have to burn that fat off through dieting and exercise. Only then will you even have a chance.
Second, the best way to get your abs to pop is not to simply do crunches every day. You need to blast your abs from every angle, and to also do plenty of intense cardio exercise to lower the body fat percentage of your body. A good variety of abdominal exercises could be crunches, knee raises, oblique raises, leg raises, plank position and more.
The idea is to not simply target your upper abs through crunches, but work your obliques, your back, your upper, middle and lower abs. That way you will get an evenly distributed package of awesome, and not just tough upper abs with everything being left behind. So good luck, and hang in there!
