Myth 1
You Can’t Have Six Pack Abs
Bullsh*t. You have your biceps and triceps, right? Guess
what, you have your abs too. The problem is your abs are
covered with some belly fat. Ultra leanness is necessary
for your abs to appear.
You can have visible abs if you want it bad enough
regardless your genetics and other factors. You just have
to know what to do.
Myth 2
You Get Abs By Doing Ab Exercises
Sorry, but no. You get abs by lowering your overall body
fat percentage. You could do ab exercises for an hour
a day for a year straight and still have a zero sign of
six pack abs at all. That’s because ab exercises do not
reduce belly fat. That’s scientifically proven.
Myth 3
Supplements Are Required To Burn Fat
Nope. The only thing that is required to trigger fat burning
is an energy deficit. You can achieve it by consuming
less or burning more calories. Without a caloric deficit
no fat burners will ever give any results.
Please don’t waste your money on supplements.
Myth 4
Abs Are Made In The Kitchen
Not so fast space cowboy! Although this statement is
partially true, it’s not 100% true either. You could diet
down to ultra lean levels, but it won’t guarantee that
your abs will pop out. If you want to develope eye
catching abs, you need to train them as well.
Myth 5
You Can Shape Your Abs
No. Genetics will determine the configuration of your abs.
Some abs line up evenly, some don’t. For some
people abs are symmetrical, for some they are not.
There is nothing you can do about it except love it and
embrace what your momma gave you!
Myth 6
You Need a Gym To Get In Shape
This is just a lame excuse. You can have an amazing
and super effective wokrout at home with zero
equipment in about 4-12 minutes a day.
Myth 7
Training Abs With High-reps Is Correct
Not exactly. Your abs are no different than any other
muscle in your body. Why would you want to treat
them differently? 50 repetitions of the bicep curls won’t
help you to build big “guns”, neither 50 and more reps
of sit-ups and crunches.
Myth 8
There Is One Killer Ab Exercise
Actually, there are a bunch of different and effective ab
exercises. One better than the other, but none of them
is the best. The thing is, even the top exercise gets
less and less effective over the time.
Myth 9
You Can Isolate Upper And Lower Abs
Six pack abs is one muscle called Rectus Abdominis.
Thereof technically you can’t isolate upper or lower
abs, but you can emphasize a particular part of the
muscle with the right exercises though.
Myth 10
You Must Do a Lot Of Cardio
Of course you have, if your goal is to burn all your lean
muscle mass and you want to end up looking “skinny-
fat”. If not, then no. Stay away from any kind of
prolonger steady state cardio. Running on a treadmill
for 30 minutes or more is literally like taking a pill for
muscle loss that results in decreasing your metabolic
rate shutting down your fat loss progress.
Myth 11
You Must Do a Low Carb Diet
Not at all. Carbs are not evil as you have been told.
Actually they are little angels that give you energy,
keep your brain functioning, normalize your digestion
and minimize the risk of chronic diseases.
Carbohydrates do not load your body up with exess
body fat as long as you do not over do the quantity.
Myth 12
Dietary Fats Make You Gain Fat
Although fats get stored as fat more quickly than other
nutrients, they are not making you fat as long as you
eat the right type of fats and do not overdo the
quantity. Actually, you need healthy fatty acids in your
diet to boost fat loss.
Myth 13
There Is a Shortcut
Contrary to all the ads floating on the Internet, there is no
shortcut to the six pack abs. There is no secret fast-
lane only bodybuilders or fitness models know about.
The truth is getting abs takes time and discipline. How
long it will take for you depends on your current
starting position, your motivation, workout and
nutritional strategy.
