How to Get a Six Pack in 3 Simple Steps

Most people who have great-looking abs follow a proven 3-pronged attack that just about always works. It doesn't involve any silly ab gadgets or magic fat loss supplements. It's also not necessarily 'easy' but it is extremely effective. Here are the 3 steps:

1. Shed bodyfat

If you want great-looking abs you have to get most of the extra fat off of your body. It's as simple as that. You may have the strongest, most well-sculpted ab muscles in the world. But if they're covered by a layer of blubber no one will ever know.

In order to really 'see' your abs you'll need to get your overall bodyfat levels down to about 7-8% (for men) or 13-14% (for women).

The most effective - and fastest way - to shed bodyfat is to eat a very 'clean' diet, strength train at least 3 times per week, and perform some type of cardio at least 4 times per week.

A 'clean' diet is one based around lean proteins, vegetables, legumes, some whole grains, some fruits, a little healthy fat and LOTS of water. All refined sugar and fried foods should be completely avoided.

Tom Venuto provides a great fat-burning, muscle-building eating plan in his Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle program.

In terms of exercise for fat loss, here are the most important things to keep in mind:

-weight training workouts should be brief and intense (40 minutes or less)
-keep reps/set in the 8-15 range
-perform no more than 4 sets per body part and 15 sets total
-use basic, 'compound' movements (not 'isolation' exercises!) -- the best choices are squats, deadlifts, bench presses, pullups, barbell rows, dips, barbell curls, etc.
-effective fat-burning cardio is either short & intense (like interval training) or long and low-to-moderate intensity (like jogging)

2. Build strong abs

Here's a little secret: if you already work out with weights (especially if you perform full-body free-weight exercises like squats, deadlifts, pullups, powercleans, etc.) you probably have very good abdominal muscles! Most 'big' free-weight exercises require you to utilize 'stabilizer' muscles, many of which are in your lower back and abdominal region. In fact, many pro bodybuilders and fitness models do little or no ab-specific exercise because their abs do so much work just helping them lift heavy weights (or their own bodies) into the air.

But, since you want to learn how to get a six pack fast, you should probably be performing a good amount of ab-specific exercise. Forget about useless movements that target upper abs, lower abs, inner abs, outer abs, etc. You really only need to do 3 movements to work your entire ab region:

-The Bicycle Maneuver
-Hanging Leg Raises
-Forearm Plank
Of course normal crunches are great too but the bicycle maneuver incorporates the basic crunch movement and recruits even more abdominal muscles. Many fitness experts agree that the above are the best ab exercises -- both for creating nice-looking abs and also for developing functional core body strength.

3. Bring out the detail

Once you get your bodyfat down and your ab strength up, now you just need to make your abs more 'visible.' Lots of people actually have a six pack AND low bodyfat levels yet still don't have the typical 'washboard' stomach. Why? Because for very light-skinned people and people with lots of body hair, the details in their well-defined ab muscles are just too hard to see.

How do you fix this? Two things: tanning and body hair removal. Think about it. Fitness models almost always have a great-looking abs. But they also almost always have great tans and little or no body hair. So, if you really want to learn how to get a six pack, just use the pro's secrets:

1. Use a high-quality self-tanning product

2. Use a safe hair-removal product

The truth is that very few fitness pro's spend hours in dangerous tanning beds or suffer through the process of regularly shaving their bodies. They use the magic of science, which has provided us with some very good skin-care, self-tanning, and hair-removal products.

By the way, if you have a problem with cellulite and/or stretch marks, you might also want to try a good cellulite and stretch mark reducer.

Special Note: How to Get a Six Pack the Wrong Way

If you use any of the following methods in an effort to get better-looking abs you'll be very disappointed with your results - and you may even hurt yourself:

extreme dieting (especially ultra low calorie diets that last more than a day or two)
'electro-stim' ab belts: these just don't work.....ever!
high-volume ab training: doing 30 sets of crunches per day will not help you get a six pack any faster

How to gain weight in 1 week?

Overview

People who are overweight go through many different stages and emotional ups and downs to lose excess pounds and get into shape. But there are a number of people who want to do the opposite and gain fat. In order to lose weight, you need to be focused, dedicated and willing to make some lifestyle adjustments. The game plan to get more fat in a week takes the same effort, but the rules are different.

Step 1

Eat two or three big meals a day. When you eat a meal, your body burns some of the calories for energy and the rest are stored as fat. Eating small, frequent meals elevates your metabolism and causes you to lose weight. To reverse this process, eat huge meals and spread them far apart. Your metabolism will slow down and your body will hold on to stored fat for energy because it doesn't know when it is going to get fed again.

Step 2

Eat foods that slow down your metabolism. Foods that are high in fat, sodium and sugar should make up all of your calories. Examples of these are whole-fat dairy products, eggs, processed meats, deep fried foods, cakes, cookies, pies, muffins, candy, chips, commercial baked goods and fast food. Make sure to eat at least one fast food meal a day.

Step 3

Drink high-calorie beverages. Water has no calories and it boosts metabolism. If you want to get more fat in one week, avoid this and any other calorie-free beverage. Drink beverages like soda, fruit juice, sweetened teas, milk shakes, flavored lattes with extra whipped cream and alcohol. Drink these beverages with your meals and between them.

Step 4

Cut down on your fiber. Fiber is a non-digestible substance that helps fill you up and prevents you from overeating. Avoid high amounts of foods that are high in fiber like fruits, vegetables, whole grains and beans so you can eat more calories.

Step 5

Eat right before you go to bed every night. During the night, your metabolism slows way down and your body is not very efficient at burning calories. Take advantage of this by eating a high calorie meal right before you go to sleep.

Step 6

Avoid exercise at all costs. Exercise is known for the many benefits it can offer the body. Weight loss is one of them. If you want to get fat in one week, do not perform any type of exercise any day of the week. Also, be as inactive and immobile as possible with your daily activities.

Tips and Warnings

If you want to take a healthy path to gain fat, eat high amounts of lean meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, seeds, nuts, whole grans and beans.
