In order to get ripped six pack abs, you need to have a lot of lean muscle and very low level of body fat, most probably in the single digits. If you have these two factors, consider that you have six pack abs. YOU SHOULD!
The easiest way to go about doing so is focusing on total body exercises 3 days a week and eating at a calorie deficit of 500 calories below maintenance level. Doing so will create more calorie expenditure and for every 3500 calories you burn, you lose 1 lb of fat which is more fun to lose than normal weight because that could also mean you are losing more muscle (WHICH IS BAD!). Read my review on Turbulence Training for more workouts and diet plans on how to get ripped six pack abs.
Most people believe that there are certain rep ranges to build muscle faster than the rest but the fact is that a simple way to gain more muscle fast is by doing higher reps of HIGHER weights! Most people go for 15 to 20 reps with a low weight range and target failure to feel the “pump” but that does very little to grow the muscle. Imagine doing the exact same exercise at the same rep range with more strength and much higher weights?
In the Truth About Building Muscle program, you learn many things about building muscle with certain rep ranges and weight rangers. In order to do so, first you need to train your body at the rep range of 6-8 while increasing the weights progressively in every workout. After a few short weeks, try lifting a heavy weight that you can go to failure at 15 reps… I bet you will see more results with this method than you would by simply going high reps with low weights.
There is no special magic exercise or food that can be claimed to be the best way to lose weight fast, but there are special workout routines and diet plans that will help you achieve similar goals.
The best way to lose weight fast is by reducing your calorie intake by 500 calories below maintenance level and performing 3 very intense resistance training workouts per week. By joining both diet and exercise, you convert your body into a fat burning furnace which allows your body to burn fat all day and all night, even while you sleep!
You can find such instructions in a step by step manner in popular instructional guides like Craig Ballantyne’s Turbulence Training routine.
Eating 5 to 6 meals a day with high fiber carbs and lean protein in every meal is by far the best way to lose weight fast. They say you are what you eat. If you eat accordingly, you can get a body like a Greek warrior. All you need to do is to enhance your calorie deficit by performing resistance training workouts that lead to a very high level of calorie expenditure causing your body to change positively in a very short period of time.
