How To Get A Six Pack Fast

By Jay Allen

One of the most common questions I get asked frequently is how to I get a set of six pack abs fast? Mistakenly, a lot of people believe the secret is to churn out hundreds, if not thousands, of crunches or sit ups. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The abs lie below a layer of fat tissue. It is getting rid of this layer of fat tissue that is the key.

Working out the abdominal muscles alone will not help you reach your goal. In order to lose this fat layer you have to either reduce your calorie intake or burn excess calories. Most abdominal workout programs do not increase the bodies metabolic rate and, therefore, do not help with fat loss. There are many more effective approaches to getting rid of this fat layer then crunches or sit ups.

The most effective types of exercises are those ones that stress the whole body and increase the metabolism. The ones that I have found to work well are:

The exercises that burn calories fast are those that exercises the big muscles in the body such as squats, deadlifts, presses, lunges, sprinting, snatches etc.

You will see that many of these exercises involve using the quadriceps muscles which are the big muscles on the front of the thighs. These are large muscles that burn many calories when used. As they use lots of energy I would not advise doing them every day as you need to allow your body to recover. They are best when used as part of an overall exercise regime.

An additional benefit of these exercises is that they also stimulate the production of growth hormone in the body which would also assist in overall muscle growth, including the abs.

It is still important to remember that you still need to exercise the abdominal muscles in order to stimulate them to grow. They will also benefit from the increase in growth hormone which will give an additional boost. As with the exercises for the large muscles it is beneficial to incorporate them into an overall workout regime.

When losing abdominal fat it is worth bearing in mind that nutrition is probably the most important factor. It is no use investing time on a good workout program to then go and counteract it by eating junk food.

So, the answer to the question on how to get six pack fast, the answer involves mainly concentrating on exercises that work the large muscle groups along with adequate nutrition to help with fat loss. This combined with some focused abdominal exercises will soon see you to your goal. - 17268
