How Do Women Get a Six Pack Fast?

Due to genetics, some people naturally have defined abdominal muscles and low body fat, but most people need to work hard to get six-pack abs. With dedication and hard work, one can get a six-pack fast using a "proven" system, according to Fit FAQ, which consists of three areas of "attack."

  1. Managing Body Fat

    • Getting rid of excess fat from the body and the abdominal area is a key part of getting a six-pack, so that the abdominal muscles can be seen instead of hidden under a layer of fat. According to Fit FAQ, "In order to really 'see' your abs you'll need to get your overall bodyfat levels down to about 7 to 8 percent (for men) or 13 to 14 percent (for women)." This can be achieved with a healthy, balanced diet and an exercise regimen with at least three sessions of strength training and four sessions of cardiovascular exercise per week.

    Strengthening Abs

    • In order to get a six-pack quickly, Fit FAQ recommends ab-specific exercises, although free-weight exercises will already help build strong abdominal muscles. The website recommends three specific ab workouts, the Bicycle Maneuver, Hanging Leg Raises, and the Forearm Plank.

    Making a Six-Pack Visible

    • Once a six-pack has been achieved, it's important to emphasize the abdominal muscles. It's recommended by Fit FAQ that people use self-tanner as a safe way to get a tan and use a safe hair-removal product on the abdomen. Additionally, if cellulite or stretch marks are a problem, a product designed to reduce these is also suggested.
