Getting a Six Pack: Situp and Crunches Aren't Enough

Realizing that abs exercises won't help you get abs is pretty much like discovering that santa isn't real. You'll first resist the idea, but later on you'll come to sanity and just accept it because it makes perfect sense.

Yes, if you are trying to lose your belly fat then sit ups are not the way to go. Abs exercises will help you develop good abdominal muscles, but they will not burn the fat that covers them.

If you have been trying to get abs by doing sit ups and crunches, you're welcome, now you know why it is not working.

By solely training abs you will probably develop some monstrous abs but they will still hide under your body fat, and that's why this approach doesn't work.

If you want to see fast results then what you have to do is focus on reducing your overall percentage of body fat. I mean, have you ever seen someone who has abs and yet he has some flab hanging off his hips, or ass? or about anywhere else in his body? It doesn't exist, because your body distributes fat equally on your whole body, and when he burns it, it's done pretty much the same way, so you can't have ripped abs along with a chunky body. It's a whole package deal!

The first thing you have to do to make this happen is by adjusting your diet. It is pretty easy, you will only have to cut off the saturated fat, and high glycemic carbs (a simple google search will show you the list of foods that contain these substances. If you are too lazy to do researches then check out my other articles, I have talked about these things before) and consume less carbs than what you burn.

Once you devise a good diet then associate it to a good workout program, and there you go. You have the perfect formula to get abs.

I find weight training the most effective way to burn fat, as you'll develop more muscle mass which requires more calories to maintain, and your exercise routines will get more and more intense as you get stronger. It is a pure win!

Remember to focus your workout on full body movement exercises. You can combine some abs exercises into your routine to make your midsection stronger, but do not focus your workouts solely on abs exercises as this will minimize their benefits.

You don't need hours upon hours of cardio to burn fat. All you need is an intense workout that stimulates your metabolism and fat burning hormones and a balanced diet that can speed up this process.

IF you are new to weight training, or you don't know how to devise a diet you can get a step by step program that will teach you everything from basics to advanced techniques that top shape athletes use here.
