Easy Six Pack
One Purchase for an Easy Six Pack
By Adam Sinicki
There
are lots of things that stand in our way and prevent us from getting
a six pack normally. Among these things are the fact that its so easy
to get bored when working out and to put off doing it. This is
particularly true of heading outside to go running, or to do anything
else that requires heading out into the cold - which unfortunately
caters for the majority of CV. At the same time, working up a sweat
is something you often just find you're not in the mood for. The
other problem is that a lot of people think they can get an easy six
pack simply from doing sit ups over and over again, when of course in
reality this will just result in your getting to used to this fairly
easy movement, and never really causing the micro tears necessary to
build muscle or the calorie burning necessary to lose weight.
Fortunately
there is one purchase you can make that will help a lot in getting an
easy six pack, and that's a pull up bar. Immediately you might think
that this was a purchase more for training your arms than for an easy
six pack, but this is a very limited view of the humble pull up bar
which is in reality an incredible tool for training almost every
muscle group in the body.
Fortunately
the pull up bar is also particularly good for the
abs, and for
an easy six pack there are few better pieces of equipment. First of,
there are a lot of exercises you can do with a pull up bar
specifically for an easy six pack. Among these are sit ups with your
feet pinned down by the pull up bar which you can achieve by
resetting the bar to a lower position. Another thing you can use a
pull bar for, this time with it at it's normal height, is leg raises.
Here you simply hang from the pull up bar by your arms and then raise
and lower your legs keeping them extended directly in front of you.
This is a great work out in particular for the upper abs which are
very hard to train. Another great exercise that's very similar is to
bring your knees up in front of your chest in what is called a 'frog
kick'. This exercise is a similar way to train the abs, but is much
easier for beginners. Try transitioning straight from the leg raises,
and then moving on to the frog kicks once you can't do any more.
The great
news though is that pull ups can also train your abs and as you have
to keep your body straight as you pull up these are a brilliant
workout for the entire body. If pull ups become to easy you also have
chin ups, 'around the worlds' (which involve moving your body in a
circular motion while you have lifted yourself up on the bar) and one
armed pull ups. As you get stronger you'll also get heavier and this
means that you can never 'out grow' the pull up bar.
Pull up
bars are very cheap, and at the same time they have a huge range of
different possible training moves. They utilise your bodyweight and
attach to your door frame ensuring that you need no additional
equipment, and don't need to go outside. At the same time they are
fun and challenging and don't take very long to complete. Just three
sets of ten pull ups and three sets of ten leg raises every other day
will make you start to see rapid results (partly because they train
the whole body rather than just the abs). You can
even set
yourself the rule that you do 10 pull ups every time you pass through
the door. If you buy a pull up bar then, and you're strict, it will
be on of the best ways to get an easy six pack.
