Build Strength For Six Pack Abs - Joint Strength For Better Results

By Dan Solaris

Modern technology has been pampering us with a myriad of conveniences we have been taking for granted. Piping hot pizzas at our doorstep 24/7, online shopping and web-conferencing from the comfort of our homes- these practical zeitgeists have made life easier. Undeniably, they have also made us less active and flabbier.

It's not because of lack of trying. There's a high attrition rate among folks who start working-out to get six pack abs because of misconceptions about how to exercise effectively. The wrong exercises bring slow results and loss of motivation.

Contrary to the perception of the general public, the path to six pack abs doesn't rely on countless sit-ups and crunches. In fact, focusing too much on the abdominal muscles can even lead to strain on the lower back. Expensive, gimmicky gadgetry featured on fitness infomercials aren't the answer either. Diet shakes and low-fat food? Forget it! Studies prove that we tend to eat 75% more when we're eating diet food.

Developing six pack abs is all about having a low body fat percentage. Muscle definition, especially around the abdomen will be non-existent if we still have a substantial amount of subcutaneous fat- no matter how many sit-ups and leg raises we perform each day.

Since most of the food modern urbanites dine on have a high caloric content, relying on office work or doing house chores to burn-off excess calories will definitely result in a flabby gut. The only way to make sure we're losing fat is by using-up more calories than we're eating and that is through daily intense physical activity.

Creating the daily calorie deficit needed to bring about fat loss and six pack abs requires a combination of body fat busting cardio exercises and weight-training to build all-around muscle tissue and increase metabolism. A high metabolism will let our bodies continue to burn fat even while we're watching TV (without the buttered popcorn).

Working-out consistently also strengthens and develops muscle tissue and in turn reinforces the joints of the body- making them last longer as we grow old. Strong connective tissue around our joints prevents injury which can keep us from being consistent with our exercise regimen and prolonging the process to a chiseled abdomen.

There is a definite correlation between high obesity cases and osteoarthritis in the U.S. Maintaining a regular exercise regimen will be the proverbial stone that can help solve both of those problems while paving the way to an attractive, well-defined midsection. - 17268
