Is There Really Such A Thing As 5 Minute Abs?
by Howe Russ
The quick fix has always been something which has dominated the health and fitness industry but in the last couple of years it has really caught fire, as many people search for ways to learn how to lose weight in less time. Can you really learn how to get a six pack in 3 minutes of exercise each day? Is there a short-term solution to the long-term issue you have had with your midsection?
You're about to discover the answer. []
While there is tons of scientific evidence to support theories that short bursts of exercise are very effective for fat loss and lean muscle building, many folks confuse this with an easy quick fix. Make no mistakes, you'll need to get your diet in check if you want to see any results at all.
Getting a stronger, leaner midsection ultimately comes down to your diet. Your gym time is still important, but it can be kept very short if you are able to focus on eating a healthier, balanced daily diet. Many people place far too much importance on what plan they are following or which exercises they're performing, but if you don't diet wisely it doesn't matter which exercises you use. You won't get through that layer of fat covering your stomach.
Are you ready to workout? Here is a three-to-five minute session which will get your blood pumping and help you get started on your way to defined abs.
* Knee-to-chest Mountain Climber.
* Right Angle Crunches (knees held in a right angle position during the movement).
* Total Core Plank (push up onto hands and hold body at a 45 degree angle, rather than flat).
Try performing every exercise listed above for just 30 seconds at maximum intensity. Keep good technique throughout and try to limit your rest periods to the amount of time it takes to transition from one move to the other. Once you have completed all three, that's one round over. Aim for three rounds in total, which will provide you with a five minute abdominal workout routine which can be performed anywhere at all.
Beginners should aim for two rounds, which gives a three minute session instead.
If you find regular sets and reps of ab crunches or leg raises dull then you will enjoy this type of high intensity, minimum rest workout which can be performed in considerably less time than most people spend working their midsection. Training your abs will begin to feel a little less like a chore, and more like a challenge to improve upon your previous attempt.
Don't confuse minimum time with zero effort, however. In fact, you'll find this short blast just as tough as any other!
How long should it take until you begin to see results? Like we mentioned at the start of this article, your diet will play a key role in this. If you are able to maintain a healthy, balanced diet while regularly performing high intensity sessions such as the one given today then you should expect to see results after just a couple of weeks.
If you were one of the many people wondering if there really was a way to figure out how to lose weight without spending all day at the gym, you now know how to get a six pack in 3 minutes per day. That's something which other people spend years trying to discover, so be sure to use your new knowledge wisely.
