subject: Six Pack Abs For Women [print this page] Many women who are looking for great abs are trying all the wrong things. Doing excessive cardio workouts in the gym (like the elliptical, recumbent bike, and treadmill) for hours won't help you achieve your goals!
That type of chronic cardio will make you fatigued and won't increase your metabolism enough to get your abs as cut as you'd like them to be. And not only that, doing that type of exercise every day is boring!
After a lot of research, I've found a lot of the ways that men get great abs are the same for women. And I'll tell you: it's not by spending hours in the gym. Short workouts can work, especially if you do them right.
I want to tell you about my top tips for developing a killer mid-section. These are things that many women avoid or don't practice. I'm not sure why because they work like a charm. Consequently, many women don't have a really cut stomach! But fortunately, there's a simple fix.
Stop spending all of your time on the treadmill or bike. Use free weights, and lift heavy weight for 3-6 reps.
Focus on compound exercises, like the squat, deadlift, bench press, lunge, military press, and pull-up. These exercise help your body increase production of fat burning hormones that also build muscle (but you won't bulk up like a body builder), like HGH.
Avoid eating carbohydrates that are most likely adding to your waist-line. You don't need them and they're nutritionally worthless.
Replace those carbs with healthy fats, lean meats, vegetables, fruit, and nuts. They'll help you stay full and turn your body into a fat burning machine!
Sleep more! This is when your body recovers, eliminates stress, and produces beneficial hormones.
If you implement all of these tips then you will start seeing serious results within a few weeks. If you were to pick only two of these tips, then start lifting heavy weights and stop eating carbs. Those two are so important.
I hope these tips help you in your quest to get six pack abs! They did for me and I know they will for you too.
