6 Pack Abs - Is Diet Really Important?

Tweet

Many people work and work to get 6 pack abs and they do hundreds of crunches and other abdominal exercises. The problem is that after all these exercises they end up disappointed with the results. What most people never understand is that belly fat burning is about a lot more than just exercise and spot training.

According to Fitness Trainer Mary from Joliet, IL, "6 pack abs are 80% diet and 20% exercise." This means if you've been exercising your butt off trying to get a flat stomach, you've only been doing 20% of what you need to do to burn off belly fat.

There are lots of workout routines out there. To be honest it does not matter what your workout plan looks like as long as you are working out and you give your body a challenge. It really depends on what your goals are. There is a such thing as working out smarter.

If your main goal is to build muscle then your workout program should be based around resistance training. It does not matter what type of resistance training you do as people have gotten great results by performing bodyweight workouts, free weight exercises, and even workouts with machines.
