IT'S A FACT: While your six-pack success largely hinges on the foods that pass your lips, the time you spend in the gym & how you use it can make or break your dream of sporting a fat-free belly.

CLICK HERE TO DISCOVER HOW TO GET A FAST SIX-PACK!

If you can’t see your abs don’t naturally assume it’s because you’re genetically disadvantaged. Instead, blame your mindset. Anyone with first-hand experience will tell you that shredding that spare tyre takes time, coupled with a steady dose of effort. It's no surprise then that these repetitive processes can grow stale.

THE FIX? What you need are the hard and fast facts so you can hit the gym fresh and energised, train smart and reap the maximum benefits from every workout. Below we have assembled a cutting-edge set of six-pack strategies to whip your gut into shape plus the step-by-step blueprints you need to support your journey. It's simple, we provide the first half of the six-pack formula; your charge is to handle the second and take action!

Regular cardio training (swimming, skipping, cycling, running, rowing - whatever your mode of choice) plays a critical role in stripping away the fat that keep your abs in hiding but most people go about it entirely the wrong way. The solution to this starts with ditching the mentality that you need to do more long, boring cardio to reveal your abs. Instead, save time and lose more by revamping your existing cardio routine with a belly-busting bout of interval training.

HERE'S WHY IT WORKS: Unlike steady-state exercise (think a 5km jog), interval training calls for you to slash your total training time and dial up the intensity on your cardio with short-sharp bursts of activity interspersed with periods of recovery. Here's an example: 30sec max sprint effort, 1 minute walk (repeat x 10). The benefits of this high-to-low intensity technique allows you to burn more calories faster while spending (much) less time in the gym.

As an added bonus, this turbocharged training style unleashes a bout of extended post oxygen consumption (EPOC) where your heart rate and metabolism remain elevated long after you've stopped exercising.   THE RESULT? You'll continue to burn calories while you chill out! As a final payoff, interval training actively strengthens your heart & lungs which helps to combat sensations of breathlessness and fatigue. GET MOVING! Find an activity you enjoy, apply the principles (go hard then ease back for a minute or two, repeat) 3 times a week and start watching your gut melt and your abs take shape!

 

With the tempting thought of sporting a washboard-waistline sooner, many people fall into the trap of working their ab's each time they set foot in the gym. How many times have you seen gym-goer's performing crunches day-in-day-out with no real improvement? It’s quite common.

THE REALITY? Instead of turbocharging your midsection makeover, this over-zealous attitude can sabotage your belly-busting efforts and lead to a permanent state of overtraining (mental/physical burnout) and decreased six-pack definition.

The key to learning how to get a fast six pack (and keep it) is to think of your abdominals as any other muscle group which respond best when given sufficent time to rest and recover. As a rule of thumb, aim to leave a minimum 48hr recovery window between training the same body part. THE PAYOFF: You'll feel fresher and hit the gym harder.

Isolation exercises (which work only one muscle/muscle group) such as the ab-crunch, are great for adding eye-catching definition but they fall short when it comes to their ability to torch the fat that keep your abs in hiding. Instead, to accelerate total-body fat loss and draw maximum benefit from each of your workouts, your focus should be on performing large, multi-muscle moves (known as compound exercises) that work the large muscluar areas of your body like your chest, legs and back.    

The science behind this strategy lies in the amazing ability of muscle tissue to supercharge your fat burning motor (metabolism). Your number one rule heading into the gym should be to engage as much of this fat-figting tissue as possible. Think of it this way, by 'bringing online' more muscle with each exercise, you'll transfrom your body into a fat burning furnace where your metabolism is cranked up and continues to run in high gear, all day, every day. THE RESULT: A body which incincerates belly fat on autopilot.

Better yet, a workout based around compound, total-body exercises is a faster paced method than the ineffective 'isolation moves' routine traditionally used to manage your middle. THE PAYOFF: You'll shave precious minutes off your workout while working your muscles with maximum efficiency.

Largely considered to be the king of all compound exercises is the squat which recruits several large muscle groups of the lower body and the abdominal core. Other great multi-muscle moves include the the lunge, shoulder press, step-up, push-up, deadlift, lateral pull-down and dumbell chest press. For belly-busting results, look to make these exercises a regular staple of your exercise arsenal.

HOW TO GET A FAST SIX PACK: YOUR WORKOUT ACTION PLAN

Use this cutting-edge routine from Men's Health to banish your belly and find your abs. Harnessing the power of multi-muscle moves and the efficiency of circuit training, this short workout means maximum results in minimal time. QUICK TIP: Use it before or after a bout of inteval training to fast-track your midsection makeover. 

You wouldn't build a house without first laying a steadfast foundation - the same is true of building a better body without first dedicating some time to strengthening your core. While the ab-crunch is a great way to define a beach-ready six-pack once your belly is fat-free, it doesn't reach the core 'stabilizer' muscles that lie deep within your abdomen that prove critical in keeping you upright and warding off injury.

A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR AB'S: The abdominals are multilayered and go beyond the outermost visible six-pack region that most people focus on. In reality, the abdominal core forms a wall of five interlocking muscles (internal/external obliques, rectus and transverse abdominis and the pyramidalis) which work in tandem - flexing, stretching & twisitng during all exercises. 

For this reason, look to perform exercises which actively engage your entire core  and work the muscles closest to the spine to form the basis of your routine. Great exercise examples include the dead-lift, the squat and variations of the plank.  The payoff for time devoted to strengthening these key stabiliser muscles will  not only  enhance your posture and lifting technique,  but provide an unshakeable foundation for your six-pack and the rest of your body to grow back stronger, leaner and injury-free.

Building upon this rock-solid foundation, one of the most effective exercise techniques for fast abs involves purposely placing your body into a position that decreases its natural stability. This forces your entire core into overdrive to counteract unstable movements and maintain your centre of balance.

GET EQUIPPED: The use of Swiss-balls, bosu-balls and wobble-boards all provide ideal surfaces of instability for you to work with and provide a broad variety of unique exercises that vary in difficulty for you to practice. Great examples include basic front and side Swiss-ball crunches, bosu sqauts/lunges, swiss-ball russian twists and swiss-ball roll-outs. 

To make any of the 'balance moves' you already do more challenging try holding a light plate, dumbell or medicine ball throughout the movement for added levels of resistance. Given that muscle tissue will only grow when an overloading stimulus is placed upon it, this introduction of weighted abdominal work is a great way to fuel muscle growth and craft deep and shapely contours through your middle.

IT'S A FACT: No matter how big your belly or how many times you've tried to lose it, you can reveal your abs. Not with a self-powered liposuction machine or ab-gadget, but with an intelligent, well-balanced (and most of all) realistic action plan.
