Getting abs fast ?


Hello everybody, you are reading one of the most successful online articles for six pack abs. Here are the tips which suits every person to get abs fast.

STRATEGY #1: THE GYM

First of all I want you to know that according to Fred McDaniel, who is a master trainer and co-founder of the Human Performance Center in Santa Fe, N.M. said that the abdominal muscles are designed for function not for size. So forget about the concern of your abs becoming too bulky by bring your weights, it won’t happen. Your focus should be on getting your abs firmer and tighter, which in time is how they get stronger through fitness.
Starting off with body resistant fitness like crunches and knee raises to improve your abs and lose weight is ok.  The problem is though this can be counterproductive when you start getting into better shape. The better shape you get in the more resistance your abs will need.   By adding weights, or I recommend cables, will allow your muscles to be worked in a variety of angles in turn always keeping up with the resistance your body needs.
McDaniel also reminds us that the risk of injury using weighted abdominal  movements are the same risks as using weights for any other muscle group in our bodies.  The key he says is to be focused, by maintaining proper form, go slowly when using the weights your muscles can handle.  By remembering this, you will lower your odds of risk and greatly improve your results. You don’t have to go to a gym for this workout.  Just get a high-cable pulley, a chin-up bar and a light dumbbell and your set to start losing weight, tightening your abs.

STRATEGY #2: IN-HOME PILATES-BASED 

Understandable so, some people like to do their fitness at home and some people do not.  When one person would consider working out their fitness routine at home very limiting, others feel greater freedom.  If you are self conscious, working out at home gives you less concern about others watching. These abdominal moves are guaranteed to put your abdominal muscles through a workout most abdominal moves will never touch.  Prying eyes may discourage you from the focus you need to do these abdominal moves in order to achieve the best fitness results.
Derived from Pilates, these at home routines are a series of floor exercises that cause resistance to your abs by holding specific positions.  When done properly, you will develop strength, flexibility, gaining better posture , lose weight and better coordination.  Ed Morand, A.C.E.,N.A.S.M who is the Pilates instructor at the New York Sports Clubs/Town Sports International in New York City, explains to us that these workouts may seem esoteric but in reality, they are closer to mimicking the real-life use of your abs.
Pilates requires that you tighten your muscles right from starting position. By keeping the tension on your abs all the time not only are you giving yourself a constant workout, you are improving your posture. This continual tension will keep your midsection muscles working overtime which in turn will help you see results faster with every exercise offered here.
Morand offers three abdominal moves for developing abs of steel, loss of weight by fitness which only requires a mat, a few minutes to spare, and determination.

STRATEGY #3: HOME OR GYM PHYSIOBALL

“The abdominal wall’s main job isn’t to curl you up off the floor; it is to constantly support and stabilize your body.  When in good shape, the abdominal wall will keep your body in an upright balanced position throughout the entire day.” says Jeff Bell, C.S.C.S., N.A.S.M., A.C.S.M., co-owner of Spectrum Wellness, New York City.  You know that ball that you usually see woman using, the big blue one called a Swiss ball, well guess what, nothing beats the Swiss ball for putting your midsection through greater, shape-shifting torture.
The ball mimics the movements your abdominal muscles make throughout a day. This may seem unique to you, however, it is actually quite familiar to your abdominal muscles. If you want a good jump start for your routine, the Swiss ball is the way to go.  Just getting in the starting position onto the ball to do your first crunch makes your muscles (including your abs) contract.   How cool is that!  Jeff Bell reminds us that by doing the crunches on top of the ball, allows us to bend back even further than a floor would thus allowing to work out more muscle fibers along a safe, supported surface. He continues to say, "By arching your lower back up from a flat surface like the floor just to achieve the same effect will only compromise the spine instead of strengthen our abdominals.
