Six pack diet or exercise
Common Questions and Answers about Six pack diet or exercise
six-pack
We all know that no amount of sit-ups or crunches will give you a six- pack! A six-pack is the result of a clean diet as stated above, low body fat and hard, hard training. Crunches are what I consider a good "finisher" at the end of your core training, poor form often results in not much else than a sore neck. Instead, work your core with dynamic stabilizing moves.
First you're only 16 so you're still growing. But understand this!
The steps to get the low body fat levels necessary to show six-pack abs are very, very strict than those you'd have to do to drop a few pounds and reach a healthy weight and, may not even be possible, depending on your genetic makeup.
A six-pack is when your body fat level is low enough to reveal the segments that divide your front sheath of muscle fibers on your torso.
Hi Everyone, I have been trying these for months and months but it doesn’t help me anymore. I am talking about six pack abs that I am trying to get. I joined a gym for this and the trainer told me that I would get them…but NOOOO!! That did not help me and later on I have tried a few tips that I have been suggested by my friends but that also was of no use (the whole thing helped the abs a little…but not as I wanted).
For a six-pack to show, you must reduce body fat. The body fat percentage necessary to reveal a cut torso varies according to your genes and body type, but for most men, a percentage of 6 to 8 percent will reveal abs, while for women require a percentage of about 11 to 13 percent. To reduce body fat, reduce calories below what you burn daily, which can be determined by finding your basal metabolic rate. A 250- to 500- deficit daily will lead to a 1/2- to 1-pound weight loss in a week.
Exercises to pull in your tranverse abdominals (think of those as a corset around your core, the rectus abdominals are those which make a six pack) are planks (side and pushup position), isometric holds (think holding a pullup bar and pulling your legs up straight and holding for a few seconds at a time).
But focus on your diet to get rid of stubborn belly fat. Cardio will also help shed the excess fat.
Try walking on an incline for 20 mins, then build to jogging intervals for 20.
A push-up not only helps you to get a stronger upper body, but also a stronger midsection. It incorporates the stabilization muscles of your core, combining an upper-body pushing movement with a plank. It is, in fact, one of the best and most basic exercises for your midsection.
Push-ups are a higher value plank.
You get a flat stomach by dieting, any exercise will help build some muscle there but most people have a six pack underneath the fat already, and everyone has a "flat stomach underneath the fat.. This is why and on skinny guys don't count :P
Also, a lot of people's pooch or whatever you call it has a lot to do with inflammation of the digestive track.
Just go to You Tube and look up ab exercises. There will be a million of them. The above post is referring to interval training, and that's going to be hard to do if you can't get away from your kids for awhile, and isn't going to be easy to do if you've never done it. Again, none of us know what your physical condition is right now, so we can't know how much you can handle.
A nti-depressants CAN pack on the pounds, personal not Scientific, depend on the med and your response to it. Or it could cause weight loss. I think Lortabs play a role in the binging, the combo, then again personal not scientific. What I's do is freak because i wasnt getting enough exercise knew the anti-dep could pack th weight on and wait as long as I could for a real meal. Snacking here and there.
Hi, i'm 13 years old and i do not know what to do. My friends say i'm not fat, but i feel like i am. I am 7 stone 13 pounds and i do gymnastics 18 hours a week. I am not sure whether to go on a diet or not. Also, i am trying to get a six pack, but i don't know how to do so. I do sit ups and leg crunches but should i go on a diet too??
re cardio consists of a specific exercise like running, swimming, or stairs. Add some core exercises and abdominal exercises to build solid muscle in your mid section. If you have a strong core and abs, the skin will pull around those muscle if they are there and your diet is right. My absolute best piece of advice is to make sure and change your routine at least once a month or so. Don't let your body get use to your exercises and you will continue to get results.
If your stomach is not flat at that weight, you may need to add fiber to your diet. You must be constipated or be bloated with gas. Yoga can also help these issues.
When you exercise, you must work your muscles and concentrate on holding your abs flat. If you push them out, you are teaching them to protrude.
Only diet and exercise can get rid of the fat that covers them. For women in particular, belly fat is an issue that gets more challenging with age. But even with flat abs, to build strong sculpted muscles requires eating a balance diet.The diet should include proteins, whole grains, fruits and vegetables and limiting or avoiding refined foods and sugars.
Cardio workouts burn the fat that tends to accumulate around a woman's middle. But cardio workouts will not sculpt abdominal muscles.

Thats both expert forums yesterday and 5 on this forum this week, congrats, others should be so lucky to get a question on just once.
Hope you like the answer this time!
Oh, please, guys, you both know that not everyone or very many people will ever have six pack abs. Why would we want them anyway unless you watch too many TV commercials? You're both just selling something you want to be true because you both do it, but I'll bet a lot (if I had a lot) that Gymdandee for sure doesn't have six pack abs.
I've been exercising for long time and i can feel my six pack (when i push my finger on my belly) but it's hidden under a layer of fat. Why? What should i do? Any tips?
It would depend on other factors, such as your starting weight, your diet, the amount of exercise you did. When I initially started eating healthily, I lost six pounds in the first six days. When I asked my doctor, he said it was just because I'd gone from eating so much junk to a much healthier diet, and had dropped a lot of calories from it. Apparently it was perfectly normal.
Hello and welcome to MedHelp's forums. This really is an excellent question. We recommend everyone have an annual physical and discuss this with their doctors. Controlling weight and eating habits benefits health in multiple ways. Since this is the cholesterol forum, we'll discuss this. First, please note that exercise is an important part of controlling cholesterol. This is because our "good" cholesterol or HDL is directly affected by exercise.
