How to get the ripped stomach you’ve always wanted.

Six pack abs are the universal symbol of a fit, healthy and sexy body. Sculpting that chiselled mid-section takes patience and persistence, but with the right tools, anybody can build the body they want. When it comes to six-pack abs, there is one important thing to keep in mind:  Everybody’s abs look virtually the same. We all have six pack abs on us, the question is whether or not anybody can see them! Building a six pack firstly requires building the muscles of the abdominals and obliques. Developing the muscle is what will create the “popping” effect of the abs. The best way to build the strength and size of your abs is to follow a structured exercise regime targeting these muscles. The second consideration is bodyfat. You will never see your six pack if its covered by fat. No amount of abdominal exercises will give you a six pack if your core is covered by fat. Ab exercises themselves have barely any effect on fat loss. Losing fat is a function of nutrition. Combining a consistent and targeted training program with a well-designed nutritional plan will produce the desired results of a lean, ripped mid-section.

Here are some of our favourite exercises for building rock-solid, ripped abs:

Push-throughs

Find a flat surface, get on your back, bend knees, feet flat, point arms forward then raise your back and shoulders and push your hands through the gap between your knees. Keep your neck in a straight fixed position. Exhale as much air out of your lungs as possible; take short sharp breaths, exhaling on the contracting/up movement. Use your abs to life your back/shoulders. Aim for as many sets of ten that you can do. Then go to sets of 20. Do these as often as possible. Stop immediately if you feel any pain.

Toe Touches

Keep your legs as straight as possible and raise your core/shoulders as you reach for your toes. Keep your neck in a straight fixed position. Exhale as much air out of your lungs as possible; take short sharp breaths, exhaling on the contracting/up movement. Use your abs to life your back/shoulders. Aim for as many sets of ten that you can do. Then go to sets of 20. Do these as often as possible. Stop immediately if you feel any pain.
