Many trainers, diet companies and workout equipment infomercials will tell you whatever you need to hear on how to get ripped six-pack abs fast, so you will buy their stuff. When in reality, almost everything they are telling you is completely false. And is just meant to get you to invest in their program. Leaving you with the same belly you had before, if not worse, and less money in your pocket book. Does this sound like the road you want to take? I sure don't!
Well, if you want to avoid this road there are going to be certain myths that these companies tell you, that you need to identify right away. So when you hear em' you run away.
Myth 1: Low Calorie, Turn-Key Diet Systems: This one gets me laughing every time because it flies in the face of logic. Getting ripped six pack abs will never happen this way. In fact, the biggest rule in, if you ever want to see your abs, has to do with getting your metabolism the highest possible. And you can't do that when your starving because you will end up wasting away muscle, which is the key factor in having a high metabolic rate.
Myth 2: Fat Burning Pills Are Necessary To Get Ripped Six Pack Abs: Supplement companies laugh all the way to the bank on this one. This is because, while fat burners might raise your metabolism, a little bit, they really don't do anything to cure what is really wrong. That being your habits... Eating, Training, Lifestyle etc. You see until you can develop solid routines in each of these area's that allow your belly fat to disappear, you won't see your abs.
Myth 3: You Need Expensive In-Home Equipment To Get Ripped Six Pack Abs: I'm a big proponent of having a gym membership You should to, if you are serious about your fitness goals. And that's because its a lot easier than doing it without weights and equipment. Having said that, I don't agree with any of the machines that are pitched on TV. Most of them do nothing but end up sitting in garages across the world. Not only that but most of them cost a arm and a leg.
Be smart next time, and know that getting the body you want takes hard work and basic equipment you can get at any local gym for a couple bucks a month.
Myth 4: To Get Ripped Six Pack Abs, All I Have To Do Is Cardio All Day: This, is actually true. But not the whole truth. When you do cardio at steady state levels for 40min to 1hr you don't get the full benefit that you could be getting. And for the majority of people you could actually be damaging your chances of ever losing belly fat.
Ever noticed the differences between marathon runners and high level sprinters? The sprinter will have a leaner and more muscle dense physique while the marathon runner will usually have no ripped six pack in sight. This is because sprinters get a high metabolic response through intense short bouts, and the body agrees with this best and lets you lose fat. As with the endurance runner, the body is in a catabolic state and thinks its under attack so it holds on to fat to save itself.
Your body is very smart, just in case you didn't know...
This is why most endurance athletes actually end up gaining fat while they train up to their event.
To get ripped six pack abs fast you need to have all the common factors working for you... Eating, training and rest. If you do this and adapt it for your lifestyle, time available and habits. There will come a day very soon that you will be packing a ripped mid-section.
