Can You Really Develop Abs In Less Than 10 Minutes Per Day?

By Howe Russ


Given the amount of hype and misinformation in the fitness world today, it's hard not to smile when you see statements claiming to teach people how to get a six pack in 3 minutes or less. That's because usually it's little more than a gimmick or fad diet. However, if you truly want to learn how to lose weight properly then there are ways to ensure maximum results with minimum time spent in the gym. What are they?

The answer awaits you. []

To discover the real reason it's possible to get great results in a short amount of training time, you'd need to get out of the gym and into the kitchen. Your diet is the most important factor in seeing those results you crave.

The actual workouts do not need to be very long at all. Your abdominal area is made up primarily of very small muscles which require little stimulation in order to grow. This means you can hit them hard, fast and regularly if you so choose. However, neglect to watch what you eat and you'll never actually see any of those hard earned results due to the stubborn layers of unwanted body fat which will sit on top of them.

Perform today's workout without any equipment, other than a stopwatch. It can be done anywhere and it will help you to shed some unwanted body fat.

* Knee-to-chest Mountain Climber.

* Elbow-to-knee Crunches (elbows touching knees at the top of each repetition).

* 45 Degree Plank (Up on hands in the top push-up position, holding at a perfect 45 degree angle).

Try performing every exercise listed above for just 30 seconds at maximum intensity. Keep good technique throughout and try to limit your rest periods to the amount of time it takes to transition from one move to the other. Once you have completed all three, that's one round over. Aim for three rounds in total, which will provide you with a five minute abdominal workout routine which can be performed anywhere at all.

Beginners should aim for two rounds, which gives a three minute session instead.

If you find regular sets and reps of ab crunches or leg raises dull then you will enjoy this type of high intensity, minimum rest workout which can be performed in considerably less time than most people spend working their midsection. Training your abs will begin to feel a little less like a chore, and more like a challenge to improve upon your previous attempt.

One mistake people often make with this type of training, however, is confusing the terms minimum time and minimum effort. You'll work harder in this short bout of exercise than most people do in their regular gym sessions, so be prepared to earn every single result you achieve.

How long should it take until you begin to see results? Like we mentioned at the start of this article, your diet will play a key role in this. If you are able to maintain a healthy, balanced diet while regularly performing high intensity sessions such as the one given today then you should expect to see results after just a couple of weeks.

If you were one of the many people wondering if there really was a way to figure out how to lose weight without spending all day at the gym, you now know how to get a six pack in 3 minutes per day. That's something which other people spend years trying to discover, so be sure to use your new knowledge wisely.
