Six Pack Secrets! It works for Sly Stallone! It will work for you!

Ok now that you are here, there are no secrets to getting and keeping a six pack! I know Sly Stallone would be the first one to tell you that.   I don’t care what the infomercial says or the new book of the week.  Getting a six pack is simple.  Not easy but simple.

This is what Sylvester Stallone had to say in his book, “Sly Moves”;  “Maybe it’s just me, but in the first Rocky, I took supplements and worked out for six months, five hours a day, six days a week, and I never got a body like the one featured at the front of books – and I was under the watchful eye of boxing trainers and anxious studio executives.  It took me from Rocky in 1975 until Rocky III in 1981 to get my “after” body.” No, it’s not just you Sly, my experience has been the same.  It takes time.  Period!   I think you can make incredible gains in 12 weeks especially if you have an all consuming goal but the key is to make fitness part of your lifestyle not just a short term goal.  In addition we know so much more today about getting in shape then back in the 70′s.  I know many of the authors that promote these 12 week challenges and I know for a fact they do them to help inspire and jump start the process for people.  Everyone knows it takes time but focusing for 12 weeks will certainly start the habit of living a healthy lifestyle.

Here are the 5 simple steps to getting a six pack:

1. Eat in such a way that your body sheds fat
2. Lift weights to build muscle, this ignites your metabolism so it burns fat all day long.
3. Do the amount of cardio you need to burn more fat but still recover from your weight training work outs.
4. I put this last for a reason.  It is the least important factor to getting a six pack.  Do ab exercises, along with your exercise routine.
5. Be consistent!

The electric belt, that fancy ab machine, the workout that has you standing on a ball while touching your nose with your foot will not get you the elusive six pack.  You don’t need to exercise like a circus performer to get it, all you have to do is eat right, exercise right and be consistent.

End of story.  Want a simple plan to follow, get my my book, it even comes with 6 online videos to walk you through to success!
