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.
The biggest problem when it comes to training your midsection is the amount of contradicting information on the best approaches to adopt. There is not one perfect training method and a bunch of wrong ones, different things work for different people. But the sheer volume of different opinions often simply confuses people to the point of quitting because they don't know where to start.
While you could have one instructor telling you that some people just can't develop their abs and another one telling you the opposite, or a fit friend advising you that you need to eat the latest supplements while your work colleagues tell you to avoid them like the plague, the truth is there is not just one way to get fit. There is not just one correct method of working out. Even in today's health and fitness landscape, where things are becoming more scientific by the hour, lots of it still comes down to trial and error.
That is, until you get down to the basics, which is what we are going to do with you today.
Below, you will see a very basic yet incredibly effective abdominal workout designed to strip body fat from your body and develop stronger muscles in your core. In doing this, you will finally achieve the definition and physique you have been trying to achieve. Better still, the entire workout can be completed in as little as three minutes.
* The Mountain Climber
* Crunches with knees at ninety degrees
* Plank Variation (instead of being on your forearms and wrists you'll be elevated up onto your hands in the push-up starting position)
In this workout each move is performed for 30 seconds, meaning each full round will take just a minute and a half to complete. The idea is to minimize rest, focusing on high intensity. Three minutes will allow you to complete two full laps of this circuit. If you wish to push for a third you can do so providing your current fitness level allows you to do so. Even with the addition of an extra round, the full workout is over within four and a half minutes!
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 focusing on an equipment free session you allow yourself to never skip a session due to the fact that it can be performed in any environment.
* 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.
* While most people enjoy pushing themselves with cardiovascular training or trying to beat personal best's on weights, few people have anything to strive for while hitting their midsection. There's no challenge. The challenge is what's going to push you to new results.
By learning the principles of how to lose weight and maintain it, then applying the principles of high intensity interval training to your fitness routine, you will indeed be able to discover how to get a six pack in 3 minutes with a core strengthening workout such as the example given to you today.
