Learn about sixpack training


October 30, 2009

Anyone with a sense for good looks who wants to improve his or her looks will try to get better defined abs.

Many people are trying everything to get a six pack abdominals (in german: Bauchmuskeltraining) and quite often nothing is happening. But how can one know what gets you nearer to your goal? How can you distinguish good six pack exercises and bad six pack exercises? There are 3 main things many people try their luck with that are not so effective at all:

Number one: An exercise you should kick from your training plan is the standard sit up. It hurts your lower back what really disqualifies it… and it only works a few of your abdominal muscles so to avoid it is a real no brainer.

Second: Crunches. Some call the crunch a scaled down version of the sit up and it surely puts less strain on your lower back. Nevertheless I don’t consider it to be one of the best six pack training exercises. Why? Only your upper abs (mainly) are mainly properly trained, it does more or less nothing for the lower abs and what is lacking, too, is a proper range of motion to really work your abs effectively. Third, it is still not totally harmless for your back and neck.

Number three: Don’t think about buying any of the funny gimmicks that you see on TV. Those guys are marketing geniuses who will say their product will put you in proper training positions if you just hand them enough bucks, but they are all junk. All you really need is a set of proven six pack exercises and the proper training + nutrition advice.

“The Truth About Six Pack Abs” is an abdominal fitness ebook by Mike Geary, Personal Trainer and certified Nutrition Specialist. The program has sixpack abs at its focus and includes effective full body routines, and a nutrition plan to lose fat around both your waist and your body in general. That being said, it’s not for you if you are looking for fitness short cuts. This program works, but it takes effort.

But up to now this product was only available in english language. Recently the ebook has been translated to german (”Mike Geary: Bauchmuskeltraining“)

If you speak german and want to learn more about muscles in general have a look at www.muskulatur.net There are sections for each of the big muscle groups and about how to train them (e.g. turbulence training e-book). General topics are covered like how muscle grows and what function which type of muscle has.
