Top 3 Rookie Mistakes That Keep You From Getting Six Pack Abs
Mistake #1: You focus on abs training only
To get six pack abs, you need to develop your abs (using abs exercises) and you need to lose stomach fat. Abs exercises won’t help you lose stomach fat. To lose stomach fat, you need to expend more energy than you eat. To expend more energy than you eat, do interval training and lift weights.
Mistake #2: You perform only easy abs exercises
Can you do more than 20 sit-ups in a row? If you can, it’s time you either upgrade your sit-ups, or pick harder exercises. Bodybuilders and exercise scientists have known for a long time that the best repetition range to build muscle (including abdominal muscles) is 8-12. In other words, if you can do more than 12 repetitions of your favorite abs exercise, it’s too easy. Upgrade it.
Mistake #3: You pause between repetitions
When you work out your abs, do you pause between repetitions? Since many abs exercises are done on the floor, rookies often rest their upper back and head on the ground between each repetition. This relaxes their abs, and basically defeats the whole purpose of training them. When you work out your abs, do not rest your upper back and head on the floor between repetitions. That will force your abs to stay tight throughout the exercise, and will help them grow into a six pack.

The most important aspect of any good exercise program has got to be your diet and eating habits. Even if you do have a set of six pack abs, you won’t see them, if they are covered in a big layer of fat. You have to slim down, as well as exercise.
