Can I Even Get Six Pack Abs?Can everyone get six pack abs? The simple answer is yes. Most of us have two arms two legs and two ears; we also have the same abdominal muscles. The main difference between your stomach and the dorky looking guy you see here, (and no, that's NOT me), is that he's got very little fat hiding his. Of course there are stomach exercises that can be done to help bring out the beast! But the operative word is help. Every training center, including mine ( www.leriken.com ) has a class dedicated to what a lot of people think is the Holy Grail of physical fitness: a flat stomach. I always tell my clients that if you want a washboard stomach targeting your core area will definitely help, but what's just as important, and maybe even more important, is diet , and cutting out bad fat-after all, that's what's hiding everything. If your eating habits aren't working in conjunction with your physical fitness goals then let me tell you that you're fighting a losing battle. Muscle burns more calories than fat but you need to kick-start your metabolic weight loss and readjust your metabolism and if you're constantly overeating, especially if it's high fat, high sugar, high calorie food, all your hard work isn't going to have a chance to show. When it comes to your mid-section you can do all the proper exercises with perfect form and sure, that area will get stronger, but if your goal is to look like a fitness model then you have to strip away the fat through diet and the proper training methods, which includes sustained cardiovasclar training to burn that fat. So yes, this goal can be achieved by just about anyone but first you have to understand the
