By Howe Russ


Given the amount of hype and misinformation in the fitness world today, it's hard not to smile when you see statements claiming to teach people how to get a six pack in 3 minutes or less. That's because usually it's little more than a gimmick or fad diet. However, if you truly want to learn how to lose weight properly then there are ways to ensure maximum results with minimum time spent in the gym. What are they?

The answer awaits you. [
Learn the facts on how to get a six pack in 3 minutes with this gym program.

While there is tons of scientific evidence to support theories that short bursts of exercise are very effective for fat loss and lean muscle building, many folks confuse this with an easy quick fix. Make no mistakes, you'll need to get your diet in check if you want to see any results at all.

Your gym time can be cut to a relatively short time providing you have been able to tailor your diet correctly and trim off any unnecessary bad foods which were holding your progress back in the past. The abdomen is comprised of mainly small muscles, which do not need to be trained for a long period of time in order to become lean or more toned.

Are you ready to workout? Here is a three-to-five minute session which will get your blood pumping and help you get started on your way to defined abs.

* Mountain Climber (knees brought in towards chest).

* Ninety Degree Crunches (knees held at ninety degrees throughout).

* Advanced Plank (body in top push-up position throughout).

Many people confuse intensity with going as fast as you can. That's not what you need to do here. Intensity means keeping your rest periods limited to just a few seconds. Your repetitions should be performed with a good technique every single time. Move between the 3 moves in short 30 second bursts. Two rounds of this circuit will only require a 3 minute window of time, making it very easy to fit into even the busiest of schedules.

While 2 rounds will push you hard to begin with, you should be ready to progress to the full 3 round circuit after around two weeks.

While you probably know at least one person who insists on doing hundreds of reps on the Ab Crunch machine, you'll quickly discover that short high intensity workouts yield results which are just as good, except they require far less of a time commitment.

The key word there is time. Notice we said minimum time, not minimum effort. The results you earn from that three-to-five minute session will be hard work, despite the relatively short time you'll be working out.

How long should it take until you begin to see results? Like we mentioned at the start of this article, your diet will play a key role in this. If you are able to maintain a healthy, balanced diet while regularly performing high intensity sessions such as the one given today then you should expect to see results after just a couple of weeks.

Discovering how to get a six pack in 3 minutes may seem like Mission Impossible but there are genuinely ways of achieving this if you are prepared to put in the effort. If you want to learn how to lose weight effectively and safely, high intensity circuit workouts are a great method to implement into your plan for a fast return on the relatively small investment of time they require.
