How To Get A Six Pack Fast - What NOT To Do

By Brad Howard

In the quest of the “six pack”… otherwise known as the “holy grail”, most people commit more than a few errors that completely hinder their progress. Naturally, it seems that everyone wants to know how to get a six pack fast, but most people really go about it completely backwards.

How To Get A Six Pack — What Not To Do

Rule Number One: If you have a huge layer of fat covering your abs, don’t think that crunches and other types of ab work are going to etch the fat away. In fact, you could make your stomach look BIGGER if you don’t watch out.

(Also, remember this… you can’t spot reduce body fat.)

Think about it this way… if you firm up your abs before you begin to burn the fat away, your ab region will push the fat out farther… because the muscle underneath is now becoming more solid.

Make sure to make a effort to control your diet a bit and get plenty of water in the process. I’ve heard it time and time again… your six pack starts in the kitchen. No amount of exercise and ab work is going to make up for a crappy diet.

Rule Number Two: If you aren’t including any other weight training or interval training in your workouts, you are losing out severely on the “afterburn” effect and maximum fat loss. Most people only try to manipulate their fat stores via diet and completely neglect the exercise portion of their routines.

Back move all the way around.

If we begin to talk about “energy flux” (see the category to the right) then we can start to understand why people yo-yo up and down so much when they “diet”.

Use exercise to create your energy deficit and use proper nutrition to fuel your activities. Your abs will begin to show in the process.

Rule Number Three: Make sure to use proper form when doing your ab exercises. I’ve seen more people hurt their necks and spine by doing things wrong. If you’re not sure how to do anything, pick up a program like my Fat Loss Black Book. The ab region is such a sensitive area to hyperextension and other related injuries, you really don’t want to take any chances.

Couple that with the fact that if you are doing the exercises wrong… you aren’t really getting the full benefit, right?

Right…

So there you go, 3 things to look out for when learning how to get a six pack fast. Go forward at your own risk…
