Lose The Stomach Fat, Gain The Abs

By Timothy Williams


Everybody is infatuated with abs. It is probably the hottest topic in the fitness and exercise industry. You can tell that this is the hottest topic in the fitness industry just by checking out late night TV, all you see are infomercials promising six pack abs!

The problem is that most of the abdominal exercises that are recommended all over the internet, and in magazines, etc, are not necessarily the best method to get that six-pack abs appearance. Before even getting started with any abdominal exercises, you have to be sure that you have lost any extra belly fat you may be holding on to.

Losing belly fat is important in being able to show your six pack abs.

Make sure to put your efforts more in training time with high intensity full-body workouts rather than just abdominal exercises. Training to do full body workouts are much more efficient in losing belly fat than doing exercises that target only a small portion of the body at once.

Exercises that work the large muscle groups of the legs, upper and lower back, and chest give you the biggest metabolic bang for your buck in terms of abdominal fat loss. Doing these exercises in super sets will even further the fat burning and metabolism boosting response you are looking for in a workout.

Adjusting our attention to abs specific exercises, it is still valuable to do abs exercises. Remember however, to make the most of it.

If you are performing an abs exercise that you can do more than 20-25 reps with ease then dont waste your time doing that exercise! You are not getting enough resistance to be productive in getting six pack abs if you can easily do more than 20-25 reps. Exercises that challenge you to do 6-15 reps are the ones you need to work out to get six pack abs.

Here are good examples of these higher intensity abdominal exercises are hanging leg raises or knee raises using a "pelvic curl up", or an exercise like lying hip thrusts. Many times, the same people that can do 50 or 100 crunches, can't even complete more than 2 or 3 properly executed hanging leg raises.

If you really want tighter flatter abdominals that look like a six-pack, remember that losing that extra belly fat is the MOST important factor.
