Having a flat stomach or ripped six pack abs is the goal of many health conscious people. If you are one of those people and don’t have a lot of extra time, I can show you how to get a six pack without going to the gym every day. It will take some time and planning, but imagine how much time you will save not having to drive all the way to the gym. I’m sure you will also enjoy not having to use sweaty benches.
The best ab workout in the world won’t help you if you have 10 pounds of fat covering up your stomach muscles. This means you need to work on getting rid of the belly fat before you start worrying about building a six pack. In addition to eating healthy, you will have to do some intense cardio to kick up your metabolism and burn fat. Since you won’t be going to the gym, you have to figure out what you can do around your house. You need to have a high intensity cardio workout so look for things like hills or stairs to run or challenging bike trails you can get your heart racing on. Try to do an intense cardio workout at least three days a week.
You need to work on building muscle on the days you aren’t doing intense cardio. Muscle will burn more fat 24 hours a day and that will help uncover your abs. Even if you don’t target your abs, you will be working them indirectly and once you burn the fat away, you will have a great looking midsection. If you are creative, you can find lots of ways to build muscle without going to the gym. There are lots of body weight only exercises you can do like squats, lunges, push ups, pull ups, and tons of traditional abdominal exercises. You can also do things like rope climbing or even strongman type exercises – you know, the ones you see on TV where the really big guys do things like carry around boulders and pull cars.
Some of these exercises will take a little while to set up and get used to, but if you are saving a lot of time not driving to the gym, this will still be faster. If you have a good attitude about it, you will have a lot of fun doing this.
