Keys to getting a six pack:
You can have the greatest, most muscular set of abs in the world, but if they are blanketed by a layer of body fat, who cares. In order to rid yourself of the extra body fat around your midsection, you need to incorporate effective cardio sessions into your fitness plan. You cannot spot-reduce the midsection by doing extra ab exercises like crunches or sit-ups. You first must burn off the body fat through proper cardio to properly define the area.
Abdominal training by itself will not do much. Cardio needs to be intense enough to do the trick. Three to four sessions a week of intense jogging, running, the Stairmaster, the elliptical, jumping rope, or biking should be enough to get the process in gear. Swimming, hiking, and taking aerobics classes are beneficial as well. Nothing beats jogging or running. It is the most intense, efficient, and effective method of burning calories. If running outside hurts your joints, try running inside on a treadmill or outside on a dirt path. It definitely is easier on the body.
Again, you NEED three to four intense cardio sessions a week to help create a calorie deficit and help rid the body of the fat that covers your abs.
Proper Nutrition:
Do not sabotage your results in the gym by giving yourself a passport to pig out. Ridding the body of fat once and for all is accomplished by proper nutrition more so than incorporating cardio. At the end of the day, if you have consumed more calories than you have expended, you add body fat. So you need to burn more calories than you consume.
Nutrition is important because you can reduce the amount of calories you take in, therefore greatly having an effect on the amount which you have to expend through cardio. Eat five to six small, well-balanced meals spaced apart about every three to four hours. Try to keep something healthy on hand.
If not, when you become real hungry, you will opt for something that isn’t as good for you. When you become overly hungry, all rational thinking goes out the window.
But it is important to get something in you. Not eating on time or at all is almost as bad as eating too much. Keep protein intake high (approximately 50% of daily calories), carbs moderate (40%), and fats minimal (10%).
Muscle fiber is made of tightly-wound protein molecules that is damaged during a workout, so you need more protein than the sedentary person to help that muscle tissue repair. Carbohydrates have an important role in the body, but do not base your meals on them. Try to avoid simple sugars like cane sugar, honey, fruit juices, syrups, and even a lot of fruit.
Drink at least a gallon of clean water each day as well. It will help in nutrient absorption and digestion and will help flush toxins from the body.
Bottom line, make sure you are supplying your body with well-balanced, healthy food every three to four hours.
Weight training The Abdominals:
Here is where most people go wrong in their attempt to develop their abs. I often ask those I train, “Would you train your biceps with sets of 50 reps with no weight?” Of course, they say “no.” How about your chest, 50 reps with no weight? Another no. I then ask, “Then why would you do that with your abs?”
Here’s an important key. If you want proper ab development, you need to add resistance (weight) to your ab exercises. Abs are muscles just like biceps, triceps, pecs, glutes, whatever. You need resistance to properly strengthen and build them. The same goes for abdominals

This is the intermediate level Turbulence Training workout B. You will begin with the warm-up for the intermediate level and then begin your first superset with dumbbell squats and stability ball rollouts, which is a difficult abdominal exercise.
So, for the db squats, hold the dumbbells at your sides at arm’s length with your feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart. Next, you will squat to parallel and then push back up while keeping your chest and head up. Be sure to keep your shoulder blades together and have a nice proud posture at all times for 8 repetitions.
Move quickly over the stability ball rollout. To get in position for this exercise, begin by kneeling on a mat with the ball close to you and your hands down low on the ball. With your abs braced, rollout, stretching the abdominals, and roll back in. So, as you go out, keep your body in a straight line and feel the stretch and then contract your abs to come back up. Be conservative and only go out as far as you feel comfortable. You will perform all repetitions of this exercise and then rest for one minute and repeat the superset 2 more times for a total of 3 supersets.
In the second superset of workout B, you will do a dumbbell reverse lunge which is like a split squat and pair that with a side plank.
For the reverse lunge, hold the dumbbells at your side and step backwards, bend your front knee and drop your hips straight down, keeping the back knee just off the ground and then return to the start position. So, pull yourself back up with the glutes and the hamstrings of the lead leg. Do 8 repetitions and then switch to the other side.
Without rest move immediately into the side plank for a 20 second hold. For proper form, place your body in a straight line, chest up and out with your shoulder blades back. Once you’ve done 20 seconds for one side, switch over and do another 20 for the other side. After you finish this exercise take a one minute rest and repeat the superset 2 more times for a total of 3 supersets.
It’s important to really work on your form in this exercise and in all exercises as it will help you to get use to standing and sitting with better posture and hopefully help relieve any pain that you might have in your upper back.
In the final superset of workout B from the intermediate Turbulence Training program, you will pair a dumbbell row with a back extension on the ball. For the db row, you are going to have the db in one hand, while the other hand is going to rest on the end of the bench as is the knee on the same side. Now, keep your back flat and bend your back knee, while planting the foot into the ground. Place the db at arm’s length, and then using your upper back and lats (a back muscle), bring your shoulder blade towards the midline and row that dumbbell up to your chest. Be sure to perform this exercise without changing any other body position but your shoulder. So, do all repetitions for one side and then switch sides.
Without rest move on to the back extension on the ball. For this exercise, make sure you place the ball on a non-slip surface. Next, place your feet up against a wall and press your thighs into the ball. Then you will lean forward without using your hands and then come back up. You will use not only your lower back to come back up, but also your glutes and your hamstrings. So, perform all repetitions, take a one minute rest and then repeat the superset 2 more times for a total of 3 supersets.
That’s it for your strength training and you can now move on to the interval training and finish off with stretching.

Directions:
Complete all reps of one exercise, then move immediately to the next. May take breaks when needed, but the goal is to finish the entire 300 reps in shortest amount of time possible.
“The 300 workout gets its name from the total number of repetitions that must be completed during the session. Contrary to popular belief, this workout was NOT performed every single day, or even weekly, for that matter. This is more of a challenge workout that is used sparingly to monitor progress and gauge your overall fitness level. This body weight 300 challenge workout will provide the same benefits as the original movie 300 workout, but may be easier for most of you who want to workout at home without any equipment. I want you to try one of these workouts this week and leave your time in the comments section below.” It’s a killer bodyweight workout that will help you shed fat and to get ripped like the Spartans in the movie 300. The great thing about this workout is that it requires NO weights or exercise equipment. You can easily do this workout at home. When you do this workout make sure you start a timer so you can keep track of all your progress. I’ve tried this workout before and it is definitely one to where you will be sore the next day. It’s a great workout to lose fat and gain muscle – not to mention to help burn fat and develop a six pack. Try this one out and let me know what you think.
