Sculpting Tight, Sexy Abs
Stop wasting your money on useless informercial abdominal
products. Learn how to effectively work your abs with the right
ab equipment so you can finally develop a flat sexy waist with
abs you can be proud to show off.
What ab equipment you need depends on how you go about training
your abs. If you train your abs with the most people get ab
exercise - lots of sets and reps - then you don't need much in
the way of ab equipment. Performing sets of the basic floor
crunch and reverse floor crunch are all you realy need. If these
ab exercises are uncomfortable for you, then you may need some
basic equipment just for comfort reasons.
Now, if you decide to train your abs properly, you'll most
likely need some quality ab equipment. What do I mean by
training your abs properly? Your abdominals are a muscle group,
just like any other muscle group.
Let's take a look at some common misconceptions with regard to
ab exercise and then we'll mention some ab equipment that
actually works for you.
Is there anything out there in the fitness world suffering from
more misinformation that how to get abs?
The number of ab machines constantly coming to market is mind
boggling. Especially considering that they aren't needed and
won't give you the results that you want.
Let's set the record straight on ab training right now and give
you the real information you need so you can say no to the next
infomercial ab machine and yes to actual abs.
- Training your abs consistently will eventually give you
the flat stomach or six-pack that you want.
No. It's not gonna happen if your abs are covered by a layer of
body fat and doing endless sets of ab exercises is not the way
to rid yourself of that excess body fat.
- Train your abs everyday for best results.
Again, no. Your abs are a muscle, just like your chest, lats,
arms and so on. You should train your abs just like these other
muscles, with progressive resistance and high intensity - then
allow them to rest and recover. Never train your abs more than 3
days a week.
- You need to do hundreds or reps and feel the burn to get
great abs.
Yep, again the answer is no. The abs a muscle just like I
mentioned above. To get six pack abs you need to strip off the
fat, but you also need to build the abs to get them to really
pop out.
If the muscle isn't developed, you'll just have a flat stomach
but no abs. The name of the game is progressive resistance for
sets of 8 - 20 reps, just like your other muscles.
- Train the abs with lots of sets and high reps to burn off
stomach fat.
You guessed it. This is also false. Spot
reduction just isn't going to happen as much as we'd all like it
to. You can't burn fat on your stomach by doing endless
crunches.
In order to do the proper ab exercise and develop a flat, toned,
tight midsection, you need to follow these rules. And that means
working your abs with progressive resistance weight training,
just like your other muscles.
You need to put together a proper weight lifting program,
nutrition plan, and cardio in order to rid your stomach of that
stubborn layer of fat and bring yout your abs.
