One of the biggest myths in fitness is that you must do thousands of crunches to define your midsection. Today you'll see how to get a six pack in 3 minutes without a gym or the need for a personal trainer. In fact, you'll use nothing more than a stop watch and your own body weight. We'll also look at some of the most common mistakes people make when training their midsection.
There are so many areas of confusion in the fitness industry that most people are simply lost in a sea of misinformation and don't know what to do.
Many people spend over half an hour every single day performing rep after rep on the Ab Crunch machine following their workout. Others believe that the best approach to getting a toned midsection is doing over 1000 or 2000 sit-ups every day. Today we'll show you a time-tested, science approved method for achieving great results within a fraction of the time. []
First, though, you need to take responsibility for your diet. If you neglect to watch what you are eating then you are waving goodbye to a lot of your potential success. It wouldn't make sense to learn how to structure an effective workout if you weren't planning to get your eating habits into line, too.
The main thing which needs to be cleared up when it comes to exercises is that there's not one definitive move for your midsection. There is no exercise which trumps everything else. The most effective way to develop a strong core and midsection is to combine the best moves for the major areas involved. See below:
1) Lower Stomach - Knee Raises.
2) Upper Stomach - Sit Ups.
3) Overall Core - Plank With Feet Elevated.
Do not conform to the popular belief that you must train your midsection for hour after hour. They are very small muscles and react very well to quick, short bursts of activity which hit all of the main areas of the stomach. The workout above can be used very effectively as a circuit for those who are looking for a bit more of a challenge.
Perform each exercise in order and without rest, spending just 30 seconds on each move before going on to the next section. If you can get through the circuit three times this would take just a matter of minutes, although most people can only manage twice for the first few months. This may seem easy given the short time involved, but it is definitely not. Turning this into a circuit will also improve fat loss.
Due to using a high intensity approach, this type of training greatly enhances fat loss benefits because it keeps your heart rate elevated throughout. While you may be focusing on hitting your abdominal muscles, your body is also focusing on burning off as much unwanted fat as it possibly can.
While many people spend years and countless amounts of money trying to find expensive fitness equipment or underground secrets from a personal trainer, you don't really need to. If you'd like to learn how to get a six pack in 3 minutes per day you simply need to get your eating habits in order, exercise regularly and try to keep your abdominal workouts very short but very intense.
