When we think about what makes girls sexy, we almost tend to think about “obvious parts” of the body, however I find very attractive a nice tight stomach. 6 pack abs for girls are simple to get (if you follow along the right steps) and for girls applies the same principle: lowering your body fat.

The big misconception in the world of six pack abs for girls, is that you have to live at the gym doing hundreds of repetitions to show your abs. That is not the case, you can have the best developed muscles but if you fail at burning the excess fat on top of them, you will never see them. So, as you may be thinking, cardio and dieting both play a major role, even more important than the role of the popular crunches!

Lowering your body fat means changing your lifestyle, and the best thing is that you will change it for the better! Here’s a quick action plan that gave great results to my wife: Continue reading →

One of the biggest mistakes people do when starting an exercise regime, is trying to integrate too much exercises from the beginning. This won’t only leave you excessively tired the days after - it will also sabotage your upcoming efforts to get the six pack you want.

There’s a simple solution, and one that makes a lot of sense: start slow. For instance, when I started my own regime I could have done like many times before (times when I failed by the way) : running around a big set of building near my house. But instead I decided that a progressive approach would work better in the long run – so I started walking to a store to buy the breakfast (about 10 blocks from home). This worked great for me and allowed me to later integrate new difficulty as my body got fitter.

In your case, you can start with whatever feels comfortable for you. Just get your engines started! Who says that you must lose 10 kilograms in one week?

The trouble comes every time we get desperate to lose weight fast, like for example a beach party or a wedding. In those cases you better have some serious discipline towards exhausting workouts or you’ll see no results at all! But again, I think it is wrong to go through life this way. Stay fit, walk towards your goal, even small steps are important. You can even start by running to your apartment’s floor instead of taking the elevator. The main point is to act now and don’t take the “sit on the couch, watch TV” route. You can do it!

A chiseled ab section can give you great looks and the admiration of people, but if your core are isn’t well trained, you’ll never have an optimum development of your mid-zone. Work the main stomach muscles- the transverse abdominals and the multifidus – with the exercises we show you here. Execute the movements focusing on the zone under your belly button and you’ll activate the mighty power of th transverse abdominals.

The Plank. Lie face down in a sort of press stance with your forearms resting on the ground. Your elbows should be at straight angle with your shoulders. With the weight of your body on your shoulder and the tip of your toes, lower your chin so your whole body forms a straight line from ankles to ears. Keep the abs contracted 10 seconds, rest 20 or 30 seconds and repeat 10 times.

Balance on a Swiss Ball. Lie on your back on a Swiss ball so your head, back and shoulders touch the ball. Extend your arms perpendicular to the floor. Lift your shoulders off the ball as if you are trying to reach something on the ceiling. Pause for 2 seconds and lower your abs slowly. Repeat 2 series of 15 reps.

Medicine Ball Pass With Rotation. Stand with the right part of your body facing a wall or a partner at 3 meters. Hold a light medicine ball on your chest with your hands. Rotate your shoulders to th right while you throw the ball to the wall or to your partner. Pivot your left foot to the right but keep the right foot facing front. Make 3 series of 10 reps.
