Question by paul p: My “workout” routine?
have always been a pretty skinny guy, and i was wondering if the current routine i practise every day will help me get some kind of muscle, i’m not looking to get a really pronounced six pack, just a nice “outline” of a six pack, and i would also hope to get bigger (not huge) biceps. I do 10 press-ups, have a very short rest, then 10 sit-ups, another short rest then another 10 press-ups but with my feet resting on a chair, and i finish with another 10 sit-ups. I do this twice a day, just after i wake up and before i go to bed. I have time and i am not really looking to get magic abs over night. What i want to know is if this current routine will eventually lead to bigger muscles as long is do it every day, and also gradually try to increase the number of press/sit-ups i do. Thank you

There are many different ab routines, all of which have some kind of benefit, but not all of them are very effective. After testing many routines, for several years, this is the routine with the fastest, most definitive results.

First you must absolutely dedicate yourself to a healthy diet. You don’t have to cut calories, or count calories, or follow some crazy herbal tea diet, or cleanse your insides every week. You just need to stop eating junk.

Healthy food is not nearly as calorie dense as junk food, so you can eat quite a bit, plenty to fill you up, and your calorie intake shouldn’t get high enough to turn to fat. Generally speaking, healthy foods are things like whole grain wheat bread, or pita bread, skim milk, non fat yogurt, almonds and cashews, natural peanut butter, fruits, veggies, chicken breast, tuna fish, non fat cheese, top sirloin, nothing fried, no juices, etc etc…They say abs are made in the kitchen, and this is 70% true. You must eat healthy, and cut away body fat to have 6-pack abs. This also means some kind of cardio routine. Do cardio at least 30 minutes every other day, as this is crucial in cutting away that stubborn belly fat.

Eventually, you can get yourself down to 8-10% bodyfat, and looked ripped, but still not have very impressive abs. This is because larger abdominal muscles is what makes a six pack look good, and to get larger muscles, you must utilize some kind of weight resistance training routine. For me, after trying many routines, I ended up doing a simple routine, about 10 minutes long, 4 days a week. I found that changing up the routine is what brought fast results. Here’s what you do. Pick 10 different ab exercises, at least, and write them down. This can be things like crunches, sit-ups, leg raises, high-knee jogging in place, inverted crunches, crunches on a medicine ball, heel pulse ups, etc.. Search ‘ab exercise routines’ to find more.

Once you have your list, each day you work out, pick 5 of them. Any five. Do the first one for 2 minutes straight, then move to the next one, then the next, and continue until you’re done with the five, without a break. This ends up being several hundred reps, and is incredibly effective. It’s not easy, and you may get out of breath since you’re not stopping for 10 minutes straight. This truly does work though. If you’re finding it’s too hard, just work as hard as you can and eventually you’ll fly through the whole routine with ease. Once this routine is easy for you, add a couple more advanced exercises in the mix, and try working an extra round or 2, equaling 12 to 14 minutes overall. Don’t forget, mix it up. Every day, choose a different group of 5 exercises. This keeps the boredom away, and it stops you from hitting a plateau.

This is the routine I’ve used, and have shared with friends, always to find it gets great results.

HOWDY-Do, it’s Mark and today I’d like to go over an advanced 4 week abs routine for you:

This six pack program will produce ripped abs in no time, your friends will envy you and the girls will stare!;-)

It’s an advance athletic abs routine, so if you find it hard don’t worry: simply do what you can and before you know it this will be easy!

Once all the exercises in this program are mastered, very strong and sharp, carved abdominals are NEARLY guaranteed!

Nearly? Yes, because there is one caveat, of course… you know it:The best six pack will be invisible when if covered by lard, and if that is the problem you can just check out my many videos and articles about fat burning.

The program incorporates 4 separate workouts, a different one for each of the four weeks. Abs training is normally done after legs or just all on its own.

List of exercises:• Athletic Crunches• Garhammer Raises• Athletic Abs Tri-Set• Abs-Levers (aka Dragon Flags)

The Tables for each phase:Week 1 Sets Reps Tempo Rest IntervalAthletic Crunches 3-5 20-25 1010 120 seconds

How to understand the tables:3-5×20-25 reps at a 1010 tempo, rest 2 minutes.That means: 3-5 sets of Athletic Crunches, 20-25 reps each set, 1 second up and one second down (1010: 1 down, 0 rest, 1 up, 0 rest), rest for2 minutes and do another 2-4 sets.

Table 2, Week2:Week 2 Sets Reps Tempo Rest IntervalGarhammer Raises 3-5 15-20 10X0 150 seconds

A very difficult one!3-5×15-20 reps with a 10X0 tempo (X means explosive, in this case explode up), 2.5 minutes rest.So you do 3-5 sets Garhammer Raises, 15-20 reps for each set, you explode up and go down one second down, rest for 2.5 minutes and do another 2-4 sets.

Week 3:Week 3 Sets Reps Tempo Rest IntervalAthletric Abs Tri-Set 2-4 15-20/20-25/10-15 10X0 180 seconds

Tri-sets are three exercises done one after the other without rest between the 3. When the tri-set is finished you take a good breather for 180 seconds and then repeat.

The Athletic Abs Tri Set consists of Garhammer Raises, Athletic Crunches and Leg-Raises.Notation: 2-4×15-20/20-25/10-15 reps at a 10X0 tempo, rest 3 minutes.

Read like this: 2-4 x Garhammer Raises for 15-20 reps, immediately into the Athletic Crunches, 20-25 reps, followed right away by another 10-15 reps of Leg Raises!;-)

It’s Fun!;-) Then you got 3 minutes before doing 1-3 sets more.

Week 4:Week 4 Sets Reps Tempo Rest IntervalAbs Levers (Flags) 5-7 6 40X0 180 seconds

Here I give you the toughest six pack exercise out there by far!;-)Those abs will be sore for DAYS!

We use a very slow, 4 second eccentric tempo (going down) and X – so explosive-when going up.

In the beginning you can cheat by bending at the hip on up, then straighten out and go down as normal. With this technique you should be able to do the proper flags right quick.

Prescribed are 5-7 sets of 6 reps, with 3 minutes rest.

In summary: one exercise for each phase/week, 4 weeks altogether.

It’s no prob to use 4 weeks per EXERCISE, that extends the program from 4 to 16 weeks, or any time frame in between the two is OK.

Try this 4 week abs routine and a rock hard, chiseled six pack can be yours in no time flat!Just make sure it’s not hidden by fat!

P.S.You can check out my videos on all the described exercises here on my Blog:http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/268/mark%E2%80%99s-4-week-abs-routine/

Have Fun, and when it hurts to sneeze remember that’s a good sign!;-)

See ya in a bit!

www.trainerjosh.com This is New Moon’s Taylor Lautner’s (The Werewolf named Jake) workout routine he used to get in shape for the film New Moon. This is a quick breakdown of one of his workouts as Taylor Lautner’s trainer had him switching up his workout routine regularly. Taylor went 40% heavier on the weightlifting than what he would normally lift, this allowed him to put on more muscle size. He also paid careful attention to his diet and the nutrition part should never be ignored at all. For the full workout details go to http
