Six-pack abs, everyone wants them, but only some know the best ways to get them. Contrary to popular belief, it's not just about staying loyal to the standard crunches. Developing six pack abs can only be accomplished through a much more effective full body training routine that maximizes both your metabolic response and your hormonal response to your workouts. Developing a six pack of abs is big right now for one reason, they're sexy and a sign of good health.
Exercise and good diet are so important in a healthy life. The truth about six pack abs though, is that they might not be for your body. Exercise can be a pain too, however, if stretching your hand to pick up a doughnut and carrying it all the way to your mouth, is considered exercise, I get plenty of it. Honestly, I'm just the same as any other office worker today, who just needs an excuse to skip work. Exercise, of course, also plays a vital role. It never ceases to amaze me the amount of gimmicks created for the sole purpose of aesthetically enhancing the abdominal region.
Dietary changes that are not overly restrictive is the first thing that the program requires you to make. This makes sense because, no matter what else you do to get rid of abdominal fat, unless you cut the source that is creating the problem, with exercises you will only be burning off what you have put on that day, not the accumulated fat. Diet is more important than exercise when it comes to a 6 pack. I mean you can have all of the muscle in the world but if you have too much fat over top of it, there will be no definition.
One program that has been very successful is Mike Geary's Truth About Six Pack Abs program. Mike publishes a very informative e-newsletter discussing new tips and workouts. The main thing I like about this program (apart from great results!) is the satisfaction I get from the workouts. After just a few sets of the unique exercises in the Truth About Abs (Renegade rows and One arm snatches being my favorites) I can feel that my body has been worked thoroughly and after a full session, I simply feel great and exhausted!! Mike creates a 20-something list of the top ab workouts, with illustrations and pictures so you know you are doing it right. While over half of them may seem hard to do at home, I can say that if you got a few weights you are good to go.
