Abs Work Out Tips

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Most people mistakenly believe that a decent abs work out is all that they need in order to build an eye catching six pack.  While it's definitely true that you need to learn how to train your abdominal muscles correctly to develop great looking abs, the whole story about getting abs is that you have to lose abdominal fat first if you want your abdominal muscles to even be visible. Without paying attention to your body fat, there is no way to develop awesome six pack abs!

If you try to jump into any type of ab work out without first addressing your body fat levels, not only will you be disappointed with the results, but your mid section will stick out even further once you start training your abs!

Think about it this way...

Your abdominal muscles are covered by a layer of body fat (yes, even if you only have 5% body fat). Whenever you train any muscle group on your body (including your abs) it generally responds by getting stronger and noticeably bigger. When you focus on your abs work out without also addressing your body fat levels, your bigger, stronger and more developed abdominal muscles begin to push your existing body fat out further!

If you're ready to do what it takes to get 6 pack abs and you want to get started on the road to a firmer mid section today read how to lose abdominal fat fast. Then come back here and start implementing a few of the free abs work outs listed on this site. If you take the right approach to abdominal training, nutrition and weight training I guarantee that you can build an amazing six pack...But you've got to be willing to put in the work to make it happen!

Now As far as abs work outs go, it's critical that you keep a few things in mind when trying to piece together your own six pack workout. Listed below are a few abdominal workout tips that you must follow if you want to get maximum benefit from your ab workouts. (These are the exact same strategies I use whenever I design custom abdominal workout programs for my personal training clients so pay attention...it could save you a lot of money!)

3 "Must-Follow" Abs Work Out Tips

1.) Your abs are made up of 3 muscles. Your rectus abdominous, transverse abdominous and your external and internal obliques. If possible when putting together your abs work outs, train each of theses muscles on separate days. This is the most effective way to train your abs (or any muscle group for that matter!)

2.) Before you jump into your abs work out, make sure to warm up your abdominal muscles with light band resisted or weight resisted exercises. Your abs are a muscle group just like all of the other muscle groups on your body - you wouldn't dream of jumping into a heavy set of squats without first performing a warm up, so don't do it with your abs. Get in a few warm-up sets first and then progress into your abs workout full steam ahead.

3.) If you don't follow my advice and separate your oblique abs work outs from your rectus abdominous abs work outs, at least make sure that you're performing your ab exercises in the right order.

For combination abs work outs train your...

  "Lower abs" (lower portion of the rectus abdominous) first, focusing on leg lifts and hip flexion movements.
  Next train your internal and external obliques with rotation and side bending movements.
  Then move on to your "upper abs" (upper portion of the rectus abdominous) last, focusing on the classic abs exercises like crunches, exercise ball crunches and sit ups.

4.) Getting a killer six pack is the result of stripping off body fat and training your abdominal muscles for growth (hypertrophy). Not endless sets of crunches and leg lifts, but smart training that forces your abs to adapt and grow! In order to make this happen your abs work out should by performed...

  With 65 - 85% of your one rep max. The only way to stimulate muscle growth (even in your abs) is with heavy training weights carried through a complete range of motion.
 

For between 6 - 12 repetitions. This is commonly referred to as the "muscle building" repetition range.

  With between 3 and 6 total sets. This is the basis for most of the muscle building workouts that I design - your abs workout should be no different.
  With rest intervals of 30 - 90 seconds.  Since your body is not working as hard to perform abdominal movements as it would be a heavy squat or dead lift, I don't recommend resting for more than 90 seconds between sets - but you do need to allow your abs some time to recover between sets.
Focus on piecing together abs work outs that train all of the muscles in your mid-section by picking the right abdominal exercises, perform them in the correct order, make sure to perform the correct number of repetitions and rest intervals and don't over train your abs. That's pretty much all you need to know when it comes to designing an effective abs work out that will lead to a killer six pack!
