What Is The Real Secret Behind Six Pack Abs?

Have you ever done sit ups on the roller chair, crunches on a deflated ball, standing crunches with a DVD, and just about every other abdominal workout you could think of and still ended up wondering why you can’t get the six pack abs that everyone wants? There are all kinds of products on the market that are supposed to deliver the six pack without all kinds of energy or time. Yet no matter how many different products we buy, how many swizzle seats or half inflated balls we own, the ripped hard core abs that super models have must be reserved only for those guys.

Naturally, the makers of workout DVDs and equipment are going to tell us that we can get ripped abs to the core since it is essential to us the way a flat stomach is to the girls. It’s easy for the ads to drone on and one about how this guy went from flab to six pack abs in less than a month and that he did it all without dieting.

All they have to do to cover up any mis-truths they may be making is add that little disclaimer about how the results they show you are not typical. So where does that leave guys like me who keep trying but are forever fighting off that little extra with no muscle definition at all.

You don’t have to be chubby or even “big boned” to want ripped abs. I know plenty of skinny guys that have been trying for years to develop some abdominal definition. Despite all of their hard work and the fortune that they have spent on supplements and work out aids, they are still skinny little rails and they still have this concave look to their abs.

So if all of the evidence is pointing to the idea that maybe six pack abs are really nothing more than genetic anomalies then why do we keep trying so hard? Have you ever noticed that the beautiful people have more beautiful people and then all the way down the genetic line these hard core ripped abs show up about the ripe old age of 12? It wouldn’t be such a slap in the face if the kids eventually lost them to cheeseburger and beer fat, but they don’t. They keep their hard core abs pretty much all the way through their adult life.

I think it’s time to stop leaning so hard on scientific breakthroughs, supplement shots that tastes like something my cat would leave in the litter box, and funky little machines that promise you that the results are not typical. Let’s get back to the natural laws of physics for a change.

Physics and other sciences basically tell us that inertia leads to inertia. More than that, science can also explain that when we eat more calories than we can possibly burn, we get fat. Rich proteins without much fat are good for building muscles (most of us learned that in early elementary school) and muscles respond to repetitive use by getting bigger and more defined.

The real secret to six pack abs isn’t in a magical drink or a pill. It’s really just about watching what you’re eating, putting in enough protein, and doing the same type of workout that got you through your childhood fitness test. Real work leads to real results. Diet influences these results. And those results are not just typical, they are inevitable.
