How To Get A Six Pack In 3 Minutes

By Howe Russ


With everybody looking for a faster way to get fitter, there is an abundance of misleading information in the fitness industry cashing in on those who are looking to discover how to lose weight quickly. It's not unusual to hear people claiming they can teach you how to get a six pack in 3 minutes per day, or help you build muscle in one hour per week. Like most industries, hype is dominant in health and fitness.

However, it isn't all bad news. In fact, just because every new gimmick claims to yield quick results doesn't mean that quick results are not achievable.

When it comes to training your midsection there is a wealth of misinformation which tends to serve very little purpose, other than holding people back. Most people find it difficult to focus on something when they have five other sources telling them to do things differently. This is a common problem in the fitness industry, leading many people to quit on themselves due to frustration.

Try telling a work friend that you're attempting to get in shape and you'll hear countless different opinions on what you should do, most of which go against what the last person told you to do. You could let that confuse you or you could simply see it for what it is. There is more than one way to get in shape, it's as simple as that.

That is, until you get down to the basics, which is what we are going to do with you today.

The three movements in this workout are designed to not only strengthen your abs but also toughen the areas around it. By strengthening the muscles around your stomach you will notice that results come far easier. This workout only takes three minutes, but you'll earn your results.

* The Mountain Climber

* Crunches with knees at ninety degrees

* Elevated Plank

Each move is performed with high intensity for 30 seconds. This session is based around your efforts, so try to cut down rest between exercises to as little as possible or none at all providing you can physically handle it. In doing so, your heart rate will be elevated and allow you to burn off more calories at an express rate. Two rounds of this circuit will only take three minutes, with the option of a third round for those who are more experienced with circuit training.

While many people spend years seemingly looking for an unattainable 'secret formula' to bringing out definition in their midsection, the underlying truth of the matter is that they're simply skipping over the simple answer to their problems in their mad search to find the latest gimmick. As is often the case with fitness in general, sometimes getting back to basics is the answer you need. This type of session is effective for 4 reasons:

* By learning how to train with no equipment you unlock all kinds of new workout opportunities.

* The focus is on time, not reps. This encourages you to simply work as hard as you physically can, while keeping you under a very strict time target that enables you to fit this workout into any busy schedule.

* High intensity is the key to increased fat loss. While many people like to do this with their cardio workouts, few people learn that they can also apply the same technique to different styles of training, such as circuits and weights.

* You'll remove the number one problem with abdominal workouts - you'll make it fun! Rather than a bunch of slow, laboring sets on gym machines you aren't really excited about, you'll have a Rocky-style challenge which pits you against you previous best attempt and demands you outscore it.

Three minutes may not seem like long, but it's about what you do with the time rather than how long it may be. One look at any gym will tell you this, where there have undoubtedly been folks striving to learn how to lose weight and getting nowhere fast, despite training religiously for years and doing what seems like endless cardiovascular activity. Of course, one of the main factors in learning how to get a six pack in 3 minutes is appreciating that the work can't stop the moment your session is over. You should be working on eating sensibly and looking after your body if you want to get maximum results.
