Get Better Results From Your Ab Workouts By Doing Less Of Them

Most people that begin their journey to get six pack abs or a tight tummy will immediately assume that they have to do 100 situps or crunches a day to get to their goals. Then after a month goes by and hardly anything has changed, they start to wonder what is going wrong? If this describes you, let me explain the RIGHT way to get six pack abs fast and burn tummy fat in record time.

Stop With All The Ab Workouts!

The first thing you need to do is stop doing ab workouts every day. Your abdominals are a fairly small muscle group and really only need to be worked hard 2-3 times per week. Also, each workout only needs to be 5-10 minutes long. If you are doing more than this, then you may be over training your abs (which will slow down your results)

However, to gain strength in your abs fast, you'll need to do a variation of exercises at a very intense pace. You can't lay on the ground for 5 mins and do two situps and expect to see results. You still need to work very hard (just not for as long!)

Start Doing Full Body Workouts

Instead of focusing all your energy on the small group of muscles called your abdominals, you should start doing full body workouts that work a majority of the muscles on your frame. To get the fastest results, start lifting weights 3-4 times per week.

Each workout should consist only of multi-joint compound lifts (no isolations). This means doing squats, power cleans, bench presses, and other similar exercises to work the biggest muscles on your body. Doing these types of workouts will help you bring out your six pack much faster than ab workouts alone. This is because you will be burning a ton more calories by working the bigger muscles on your body, which will result in more fat loss.

If you want to learn more about getting a tight stomach or sweet six pack abs, check out my 7-day Six Pack Abs crash course. This mini-course will teach you one strategy each day and by this time next week, you'll be fully equipped to achieve your goals and be on the fast track to a tight stomach.
