Ever wondered about the secret to getting that elusive sixpack?

Rohan reveals how to reveal those elusive stomach muscles..

The abdominal area is where most bodies store some fat. The result is this area is often not the way we would like it to look. Having a strong and defined midsection results from a combination of two things – strong muscles in that area, and reducing the fat layer over the muscles. In short, diet and exercise.

The stronger your abs are, the more they can be seen. As they strengthen, these muscles get rounder forming the so called “six-pack”. To strengthen them, aim to do some core work every day. They can take it, after all they are already used to doing low-level work all day every day to stabilise you – they just like to complain a lot about doing hard work! To stimulate significant growth, you need to challenge these muscles hard, i.e. training to failure with more than just body weight.

However, no matter how strong your abs are, if they’re covered by a thick layer of fat they won’t be seen. That’s why diet is vital! Aim to eat a little less energy than the amount of energy you spend each day. Most smartphone fitness apps or online sites can determine your energy needs. Eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegies and limit foods you know aren’t great – those high in fat and sugar. This will help reduce body fat levels.

There aren’t short cuts for abs. But maybe it’s time to just do the work to get the result … it is achievable.
