Best Abs Workout Routines: Your Guide To Getting Six Pack Abs Fast

By Lynn Howard

I would like to start by dispelling a huge myth about building six pack abs. You cant simply burn fat off your midsection to expose your abs. You can do sit ups, crunches, V-ups all day and develop a strong midsection but you wont be able to see them. With all the misleading advertisements for ab building machines its no surprise that people still think you can simply burn away the fat around your midsection by doing ab exercises. The following are the components you'll need to develop the best abdominal workout.

NUTRITION PHASE: Focusing on your nutrition may be the most important component to developing that sexy six pack you seek. Forgetting to consider your diet will be like riding a bike without your front wheel, you wont get far! Here are some dietary items for you to consider.

Hot Metabolism: Increasing your metabolism will help you to continue burning calories and fat long after you've finished your workout. Unlike your hybrid car you want your body to be very energy INEFFICIENT. You want your body to burn calories like an high powered muscle car. By eating 5-6 meals per day you will get your metabolism burning hot and fat will begin to melt off.

High Protein: Eating lean protein can not be stressed enough. Since you know that keeping your blood sugar even will reduce your cravings for sugar eating a lean protein will slow your digestion and smooth out your blood sugar levels. Protein is also vital in rebuilding muscle tissue.

High amounts of Water: This one is super basic. Keeping a high water intake will keep the toxins flowing through your kidneys and out of your body. It also will help prevent dehydration.

Lots of Fiber: Fiber plays a very important role in digestion, keeping things moving smoothly through your intestine. If you don't consume enough fiber in natural foods you can purchase ground flax seed and sprinkle it over a salad or whatever you're eating to keep the fiber intake high.

WORKOUT PHASE: Cardiovascular exercise is very important to any fat burning and ab building routine. Keeping your workouts short and intense is the best way to rev your metabolism into high gear and burn fat off your body. Most people mistakenly think long hours on the treadmill are the best way to burn fat off your body. Actually, its the best way to stop any good exercise plan from succeeding because you cant keep that up for long. So keep it short and intense.

Weights: Lifting heavy is absolutely essential to burning fat off your body. Since muscle is very energy inefficient it burns far more calories than fat. So by building muscle on your body you're actually increasing your fat burning potential of your body even at rest. - 17274
