Six Pack Abs

When working out the last ting you’d want to do is waste your time. Too many people at the gym work on pointless and ineffective exercises that are just a waste of time and will never produce results.

There are some things that are compulsory - Like a warm up. Inadequate or no warm up can increase your chances of injuries many times over. Simple exercises like stretching and calisthenics are all right for your warm up.

Once you’re ready to begin your abs building workout, there are four golden rules that you need to remember - whether you are designing your program, or having a trainer design it for you:

1. Stability Exercises 2. Stability with Resistance Exercises 3. Core Strengthening Exercises 4. Unbalanced Exercises

1. Stability Exercises

After you complete your warm up, stability exercises are next. These use only your body weight as resistance. You need to do these exercises intensely - don’t stop with a set number of reps. The rule is do your reps until you can’t do another one.

Crunches, flutter kicks, reverse crunches, or other exercises come under this category. Stability exercises don’t need for you to use any apparatus.

2. Stability with Resistance Exercises

The next rule is to follow immediately with stability + resistance exercises. These are basically the same exercises that you have done before - but with WEIGHT ADDED.

Incline bench crunch, a weighted crunch or a weighted straight leg crunch are some of the examples for stability resistance exercises.

3. Core Strengthening Exercises

The next rule is to follow with core strengthening exercises. these include the most complex movements of all. The require exact body position and execution.

Core strengthening exercises can be done by both lying down and standing up. Exercises while lying down are the plank, the side plank and the superman. While standing up, you can do exercises like cable torso twists, woodchoppers, and “around the world.”

4. Unbalanced Exercises

These are the final set of exercises called the unbalanced exercises. The idea here is to do an exercise that actually throws your body out of balance. These exercises will be the hardest part of your total routine.

These exercises are Very hard to do, even if you’re in awesome shape! For example, you might get into a push-up position keeping your body straight and lift one arm toward the ceiling and open your entire torso to that side.

You can’t do many reps of the exercises and you shouldn’t. Five or ten of each unbalanced exercise is enough.

Remember no workout “works” unless you eat the right foods and build up your workouts properly.

Keep these 4 golden rules in mind when developing your workout routine. The golden rule 5 is that your form must be absolutely perfect. For building that gorgeous rock hard abs you need to design an effective workout.
