You Too Can Have Ripped Abs And Look Fantastic At The Beach

Jan. 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Are you able to envision jogging along the sand in your swimmers with absolutely everyone looking at your rippling washboard abs. Most eyes jealously admiring your suntanned, toned shape.

Ok, here's the simple truth, "there aren't any simple strategies to build ripped abdominals"!

Nevertheless there are a few methods that will give you amazing results (and some which will waste your time and effort).

If you decide to do normal "Sit Up's" for countless reps you're really unlikely to create rippling muscles, on the other hand, you may have terrific endurance. If you do "straight leg sit ups" it's possible that you may harm your lower back because of the the tension placed upon it. It might be better to steer clear of sit ups no matter what. The same goes with "lying straight leg lifts".

One of the best activities intended for abs is crunches. Lay on your back with your feet on the floor, a chair or bench. Curl up your upper body towards your knees (always keeping your lower back on the floor). At the top position, hold for a few seconds, while flexing your abs. You will still only acquire a short range of motion using this exercise however it will work wonders.

There are lots of versions of the crunch. Try performing these with a twist to work the side oblique muscles. Lying on the ground, try doing Jacknife crunches, elevating your legs when you crunch, and try to reach past your toes with your fingers.

Several personal trainers tell you that in a set of ten reps, the first 9 would be the warm up and the tenth generates the muscle. I think this will be enhanced if you feel that the one that delivers the results is in fact number 11!

Should you be holding a layer of excess unwanted fat you will never be able to show off a set of ripped abs. Burning off that additional few weight can make a huge difference.  

Stay away from all processed food and cut out the carbonated beverages, even the "low cal" ones. You do not want the artificial sweeteners and chemicals.

Should you have a sweet tooth and are occasionally enticed to have chocolates it may be preferable to have a small piece from time to time instead of obsessing over it and then pigging out with a multitude of chocolate bars (this is not a free pass to eat chocolate, be sensible, chocolate is probably why you need to lose weight in the first place). Shop for fresh fruit and each time you have hungers for something sweet, have some fruit. You will enjoy the sweetness without the guilt.

As with every new program it is recommended that you choose to start slowly and build up steadily as you gain experience. Even Arnold needed to start with low weight loads and educated from more knowledgeable weight lifters.
