Most men today dream of getting that perfect six pack stomach. However most do not know the correct way to quickly get defined abs.
Most people who try to get six pack abs think that by doing lots and lost of abdominal exercises like sit ups is the way to go. This is completely incorrect. The only way to get defined abs is by losing fat, not just on your stomach (which is impossible) but all over your body. People are always looking for that one miracle way to get six pack abs. Unfortunately to only way to get them is through hard work and sacrifice.
The most important thing you need to to in order to get ripped abs is reduce your calorie intake. You have to create what is called a calorie deficit, which means you take in less calories than your body needs to maintain your current weight. This will make you burn fat. Understanding how your body works is the key to successful fat loss.
Working out is also essential for weight loss. Focus on exercises that increase your metabolic rate. Try to do a full body workout as these generally result in greater fat loss. Forget about ab exercises. While they may help with strengthening your abdominal muscles, they will not help much with the fat that is covering them up.
While you may have heard that doing cardiovascular exercise is best for weight loss this is not entirely true. Working out your whole body will often burn more calories than cardio and also builds muscle which burns even more, even when you rest.
