Achieving the coveted six-pack abs is a goal for many people. The most obvious reason is because they are attractive. Another reason is because they are difficult to obtain. It takes discipline to develop a six-pack and discipline to maintain it as well. I have read different articles on the topic and most of the advice is pretty much the same.

So What’s the Big Secret to the Six-Pack?

There are varying opinions but it all comes down to two basic things:

1. Fat burning
2. Nutrition

I once heard that everyone has a six-pack. It’s just for some of us, they are hidden under a layer of fat. In order for them to show, the fat layer must be burned off, also known as lowering your overall body fat percentage. There are different ways to burn fat but the most common way that I’ve learned is by building muscle. The reason being that muscle burns fat, so the more you have, the more you will burn. Building muscle is typically done by lifting weights.

Cardio also burns fat but I have read various opinions about what type of cardio is best. HIIT (high intensity interval training) is often suggested as a better option than long periods of steady state cardio. HIIT is supposed to burn fat more effectively and even long after your workout is done. I personally enjoy HIIT because the workouts are short and there is a lot of variety in terms of exercises you can do.

Ab exercises are also key but shouldn’t be the main focus of exercise when trying to burn fat.

Nutrition

Those abs aren’t going to show so long as you eat an unhealthy diet. If your goal is to have rock hard abs, then it is crucial that you take your nutrition seriously. It has to be just as important as your workouts. If you don’t, you will be holding yourself back. Good eating habits involve staying away from processed food. Eating clean is a good option but not many people can commit to it. It means eating 5 to 6 small meals per day. Staying clear of junk food and alcohol. You cook most of your meals yourself and modify your meals when dining out. It takes a lot of discipline.
