Six Pack Abs
Jul 8, 2009
With it being summertime and all, one of the most talked about (and marketed) areas in fitness is getting your abs to show. There are so many abdominal exercises and ab-specific exercise machines that it gets a little confusing to figure out what will actually work.
Guess what? If you want to show off your six-pack abs, you have to get rid of the disgusting layer of fat that is covering them! Sit-ups, crunches and any other abdominal exercises you can think of will only take you so far.
Your abs are like any other muscle group. Training them makes them harder and stronger. Think about a powerlifter who carries a lot of body fat. His muscles are big and strong, but can you see the definition in his chest or calves?
I happen to be one of those fortunate individuals who can carry a relatively high amount of body fat, but still see my abs. I hardly ever do abdominal exercises either. I just recently incorporated ab exercises back into my training routine, not because I want to see them better, but because I want to strengthen my core.
So stop wasting your time and money on the latest late-night infomercial that is promising you’ll cut inches off of your waist just from their one new and amazing piece of equipment. If you pay attention to these commercials, they always have the disclaimer which states something like; “Results not typical. Individual results may vary.” They have to make sure that if you don’t get the results you’re looking for, they can’t be held responsible.
So how do you get your abs to start showing? Proper diet is key! This is a whole other topic which is too extensive for right now, but if you want a sexy stomach that’ll get you lots of attention at the beach, pool, or any other place you plan on showing off your abs, how you eat is going to make or break your abdominal progress.
