Almost everyone I talk to about fitness always wants one thing and that's how to get cut abs, but the problem is they want them right now and they really don't understand how to get them.
It seems like the fitness industry has confused people so much they don't know what to believe besides the fact that there wallets are being drained and there not looking any better in the mirror.
We are surrounded everyday by ads for machines that promise great abs with very little to no work involved and better yet they promise them right now.
There filling a demand, but most of the solutions are nonsense, so stop paying for the latest and greatest and stick to what has been proven to work.
No amount of sit ups or crunches will make your abs cut because ab development is almost not important on the large scale of what you want to accomplish.
The number one factor is going to be your diet followed by regular exercise and then adding in some ab work will help sharpen the look once you get your body fat low enough for them to be visible.
If you have ever heard the phrase " abs are built in the kitchen " then your ahead of the masses who have 20 pounds or more to lose yet they cant understand why the 500 crunches they did during the week hasn't made there abs pop out.
Start eating foods that are fresh and not processed, your going to want at least 80 percent of your diet to be made up of these whole foods that are low in calories and really good for you.
I'm not big on counting calories and unless your a really serious athlete I don't think it should be mandatory for you either, but there is a few things to keep in mind to stay on track.
Basically by exercising and eating better foods your just trying to cause a small calorie deficit each day and when you burn more calories then you consume in a day your slowly going to lose weight each day getting closer to your six pack.
I prefer HIT cardio on the treadmill followed by some steady state cardio on any piece of equipment of my choice to really burn the fat, but any kind of cardio mixed with resistance training will help you get cut abs if you keep the diet tight.
