To do it, lie on your back, lift your legs up to 45 degrees, and pedal as if you were on a bicycle. Additionally, do not neglect your oblique muscles, which are on either side of your stomach. Any exercise that twists your body, such as twisting sit-ups and side bends, can do this.
And now you know how to get a six pack fast. Perform both cardio and weight-lifting exercises, eat the right foods, and exercise those abs. It sounds simple, but it takes a lot of work. Stick with it and you will have a body you can be proud of in no time.
OR SKIP ALL THAT AND DO THIS-Can you really get a six pack fast? Definitely. How fast is fast? It all depends on how bad you want it. Do you want to know a little secret?
You already have one! What?? Everyone has a six pack. Ab muscles are just buried underneath your fat or just need a litte coaxing to look ripped. Believe me, hours of crunches and months of waiting is NOT how to get a six pack fast.
- NO Carbs If you want to get a six pack quick, you have eaten your last french fry for right now. I literally lost 7 lbs. of fat in one week by just cutting carbs for that week. THAT much closer to getting those abs to pop. You need to increase your vegetable intake by about 4x. This will not only lean up your abdominal muscles, but you will be amazed at how many pounds of belly fat are just waiting to disappear when given veggies.
- It's All About the Plank So you don't like doing sit-ups? Neither do I. There's not a lot you can do about reducing the effect your stomach has on them, but by breathing out as much as you can at the end of each rep you allow the abs to contract more. And the more of any muscle you contract the more it's being worked.
6. Work Your Abs, Not Your Hips - It might sound obvious that if you want to get 6 pack abs you need to actually work your abs, but the way many people exercise this isn't what they're doing. Due to poor technique or just lack of knowledge, it's often the lower back or hip flexors that are doing the work. For example, the classic sit-up with your feet jammed under something heavy or with someone standing on them will result in stronger hip flexors and a bad back, but will do little to enhance your 6 pack.
7. Remember Your Obliques - Your oblique muscles run down either side of your 6 pack and apart from looking just as impressive when well-defined, they also need training because a weak muscle affects the strength of the muscles around it. By neglecting your obliques you're also neglecting your 6 pack.
8. Avoid Over-training - Like any muscle, growth and development comes not in the gym but while resting after a workout. It might be tempting to train your abs everyday or even twice a day as some people suggest, but this will likely lead to over-training the muscles which can cause smaller, weaker muscles and make injuries more likely. 20 minutes, 3 times a week, is more than enough to get a 6 pack.
