Sexy flat abs are everyone's dream. You'd be hard pressed to find someone who didn't want abs to flaunt at the beach. To get them, everyone's looking for the secret. With so many infomercials out there, people are getting fooled everyday when, actually, those infomercials are completely useless compared to the real methods of getting those sexy abs!
The issue with our six pack producing methods arises when you research and realize that the most recommended abdominal exercises are practically useless when trying to achieve a six pack or flat sexy waist.
This is because almost all of the popular ab exercises ignore the one crucial rule in getting a six pack...reducing belly fat. And while many abdominal machines claim to reduce fat around your waist, it just won't happen unless you can burn excess calories with a proven system.
Rather than focusing an enormous amount of time on doing abdominal exercises, the bulk of your workout effort should be spent doing multi-joint, compound exercises which work a large percentage of musculature on the body. This will ensure that you activate your metabolism by using the most amount of muscle possible during an exercise routine.
All body exercises are the best ones to use. If not all body exercises, then exercises that target large muscle groups, like legs, upper back, lower back and the chest area, are great to work with. They boost your metabolism, which we all know is a very important goal in weight loss. What's more, a boosted metabolism level helps to shrink belly fat the fastest! Those infomercial ab machines don't do that. Neither to countless ab workouts!
This simple adjustment to
your workout routine is one of the most closely guarded secrets of all the fat loss gurus.
Another mistake many people make when trying to get a six pack is that they do an extensive amount of sets with barely any resistance involved. This will do very little for getting your six pack. You see, the abdominals are very dense muscle tissue and they are meant to be worked with high amounts of tension.
Because of this, the best exercises for abdominal muscles are those which provide enough resistance to onset fatigue at a range of about 6-15 reps. If you are doing more than 15 reps with your abdominal exercises, you are wasting your time.
The high tension exercises that give the best results are usually very intense in the aspect of having to maintain proper posture through out the movement. While many people who practice sit ups regularly never practice controlling posture throughout abdominal movements, this is the way to go. You will notice that many people do their ab exercises wildly out of control.
For example, hanging leg raises are one of the best, if not possibly the best, high-tension ab exercises you can do. It works your torso, or abdominal, muscles and forces your body to maintain great posture control and high tension throughout your body. Those crunch and situp fanatics usually can't even complete 5 solid reps of hanging leg raises. Tells you something, doesn't it?
In summary, the number one way to get your six pack is by decreasing the amount of body fat around your stomach. This layer of fat must be completely eliminated to see your true potential with using any ab exercise. For more efficiency with your workouts, be sure to use abdominal exercises challenging enough to produce fatigue well before 15 reps and you will begin to see the difference!
