So your reading this article and you are trying to find out how to get six pack abs. The majority of people often do exactly what you’re doing and implement what they need to do in order to get these sexy abs. The only thing however that really matters is your dedication, and following through. Motivation also plays a big role. If you really think you’re quite motivated in taking on this task, here are a few steps on how to get that rock hard six pack abs look.
Nutrition
I can’t tell you enough how important nutrition is, it’s mainly 85% of the journey to six pack abs. You can exercise all you want, and have the strongest abs in the gym; but if there’s a single layer of belly fat, they will not be visible. So the first thing we need to do is lose this damn belly fat. Let’s start off with are metabolism. This is one of the main tools we will use to complete this goal. Instead of eating 3 large meals a day, break them down into 5-6 smaller meals. The smaller meals throughout the day will keep your metabolism at its peak, and help you lose more belly fat. You are also going to have to make a change with what is in your meal as well. Instead of drinking pop, fruit snacks, candy, apple pie, McDonalds, BK, or w/e, we must change this into things like Fruits (not fruit snacks), eggs, almonds, natural peanut butter (not JIF!), protein, and replace the pop and sugary drinks with water, or unsweetened tea. If you fail a few times with your diet, don’t punish yourself and give up. It’s hard for woman to do this because they are always worrying about what they eat. If you are going to have a little desert, make it small, and don’t worry about eating it if you’re going to! Worrying leads to negative thoughts and kills motivation.
The Second thing is Exercise!
I mentioned nutrition was the number one factor and it is, but without both of these combined it will nearly impossible for you to see your abs. Cardio, lifting weights, and abdominal workouts, must be worked on at least 4 times a week. These 4 days should also be spread out, we need are muscles to heal. That’s why many people who go to the gym never see results because they are always ripping themselves up and not letting them self heal. We heal when we rest, and the more rest, sleep we get at night play a big factor in our results! There are many cardio exercises that I can give to you off the top of my head. I play hockey, run, jog, swim, and all these things are fun to me! You won’t even realize you’re getting six pack abs if you’re having fun! Trust me. A sport helps a lot! But running and other things like tennis and such are just as effective with cardio.
Lifting Weights
Weight lifting is much more effective than cardio because it you are doing more work, and burning more calories. So take on weight lifting, and max yourself out. Always push yourself with weights. However do not push too hard, you want to learn to build up to your max gradually. Once again rest! Rest is so important I can’t even imagine someone getting six pack abs and not sleeping, it’s not possible.
Abdominal Workouts
You want to do your best and combine your abdominal workouts with a full body workout. This will make your metabolism turn into a burning fat monster, and that’s what we want.
Patience
Please be patient. Being patient withholds are motivation and confidence, and is one of the most important things everyone needs in order to succeed in any domain. Think of yourself as getting better and better, or stronger, and stronger each day. If you have good patience you will also be more self assured.
