3 Myths On Ab Workouts That People Actually Believe

I got back from the gym today and I saw more than 7 different people wasting their time on ineffective ab training. I couldn\’t believe it!

And that is really sad. Especially how almost everyone goes to the gym to get a flat stomach or to gain some muscle, but about 90% of people were actually doing the wrong workouts and doing so they will never achieve their goals that they want so bad. Matter of fact, almost every single person makes these 3 big ab workout mistakes!

Myth #1. You Must be doing about hundreds of crunches if not more and many many sit ups to burn off fat and get a flat stomach. If you actually rely on boring sit ups and crunches to get rid of belly fat you will never lose belly fat.

To give your abs a good hard workout, you must use total body ab exercises instead of those weak exercises that don\’t have enough of an impact on your abs to do anything, workouts as stability ball roll outs and stability ball jackknives are better

Myth #2 – In only four cheap payments of $29.99, You will be able to buy a magic working six pack abs machine from a late at night infomercial. Haha! I wish that one of those abdominal exercise machines worked at least half as good as those so called experts say. All of those infomercial gadgets do not, repeat, do not burn off belly fat or flatten your stomach for those abs you are craving. All those things do is burn your hard worked money and flatten your wallet, not your stomach.

To be able to get a lot more fat burning results in the least amount of time, you must be using fat burning interval training for at least three times a week for 20 minutes. It is that simple, not no bogus infomercials trying to get your money or boring crunches or sit up that does not do the job.

Myth 3. To receive six pack abs you need to work your abs out everyday. Nope! One of the big secrets from top fat loss trainers is to stop wasting your time on repetitive ab training and replace all of it with total body workouts that work and only need to be done three times a week, for 20 minutes each time!

You need to include resistance training in your ab exercises that you will be doing, resistance objects like cable crunches or using a weight that you can do 10 – 15 reps per each set of. Also only work your abs out three times a week.
