The Truth about Six Pack Abs - Part 1

Six Pack Abs! Don't we all want them! This is perhaps the number one fitness goal that most people have. We don't care about how many miles we can run or how strong we can be, we just want six pack abs! Period.

If you are like the rest of us, that simply means 'trimming' the fat off your belly by doing regular crunches and some cardio exercises. Have you ever heard yourself say "The rest of my body is fine, just have to lose two to three inches off my stomach."?

In fact this is what most first time gym goers want. That's their number one fitness goal.

Are they way off! There is no such thing as spot reduction. You cannot, I repeat, cannot reduce fat off one part of the body. The only way to do that is through surgery. You have no control over the fat burning process. Get this straight first.

Another misconception is that if I do a hundred, two hundred or five hundred crunches a day, I will get six pack abs. Wrong! Doing this will definitely give you solid, strong abs. No doubt about that, but you will never be able to see them because they will be covered in layers of fat!

The only way to get six pack abs is to lower your body fat to below 10 percent. That's it. That's the magic secret. There is no other way. No miracle ab cruncher machines, sauna belt or pills will do it. These are all fake. Don't waste your time and money on them.

You now know the secret. Its simple. Just lower your body fat to below 10% and you will have six pack abs.

However to do this in a healthy way requires dedication, willpower and effort. In the next part of this series I will try to guide you through the process so that within 6 months you too can have six packs! I did it, so can you!
