6 Pack Abs - The Power Of Core Exercises

By Dan Solaris

Losing love-handles or a protruding belly is the main reason most folks decide to hit the gym and start working out. Having an unflattering midsection is one of the things that keep countless people from having fun in the beach or in a pool during summer.

Most exercise buffs, despite having spent years in the gym or working-out at home are still unsatisfied with their physique. An overwhelming number that don't see clear results even stop going to the gym- disheartened and bored with their workouts.

In order to get fast results and keep having fun with your workouts, the right exercises have to be done. If your goal is a nice rippling set of 6 pack abs, core based exercises should be incorporated into your weekly workout schedule.

Though most people are unaware about them, the power of core exercises in producing a rippling set of 6 pack abs cannot be stressed enough. Common flat-platform sit-ups and crunches can't compare to the core-strengthening movements of Pilates or improvised ab exercises done on a Swiss ball. Core based exercises entail more muscle effort leading to a leaner midsection in less time.

Furthermore, focusing too much on the ab muscles (a way too common mistake) leads to an imbalance of power. A strong stomach with a weak lower back will ultimately result in strain on the lower part of the spine- leaving us prone to injury.

Strengthening the abdomen, lower back, and oblique muscles means stabilizing our body's center, its foundation. A stronger core will give us better balance, flexibility and endurance. It will give extra support for our spine and hence give extra protection against injury.

For the countless folks aiming for fat loss and 6 pack abs, core based exercise together with cardio and resistance training lead to sure success in lesser time. Targeting body fat by maximizing calorie burn will ensure fast weight-loss and inches off your waistline.

True, the proverbial road to 6 pack abs is paved with a lot of sweat, hardship and sacrifice. Knowing which exercises are most effective in eliminating body fat can help speed-up your journey however and get you to your goal of a lean, rippling midsection faster. - 17274
