6 Second Abs

February 7th, 2011

6 second Abs is a resistance band that provides a more effective workout. The 6 Second Abs resistance bands are also able to target specific muscle areas compare to crunches that are done on the floor. The 6 Second Abs is said to be up to 15 times more effective than doing regular crunches. The 6 Second Abs has three essential elements; perfect form, perfect tempo and the right resistance. The 6 Second Abs maintains the proper form for a more effective crunch while on a comfortable seated crunch, has audible clicks that serve as a guide to a perfect crunch that lasts for 6 seconds and has 5 adjustable resistance levels, from around 15 to 55 pounds.

The 6 Second Abs also come with two sets of resistance bands; 2 yellow-colored resistance bands and 2orange-colored resistance bands, each weighing 15 pounds of resistance. One may also choose to get a 6 Second Abs upgrade kit which includes 2 red bands, each weighing approximately 37.5 pounds. If red bands are purchased, one’s band system will then provide nine different resistance levels ranging from 15 to 75 pounds. With the help of 6 Second Abs, one will then be able to train all abdominal muscles with just a few short sets or simply target specific muscles. Continue reading “6 Second Abs” »

Regular crunch is done by lying on the ground with knees bent, back should be brought off the ground just enough for the abdomen to contract.

Lastly, the crossbody crunch is done as if doing a regular crunch except that one hand is at the side of the head. One may still end up thinking on how to get abs in a month or better yet, how to get abs in a week. It takes a lot of dedication, time, patience and hardwork to be able to get well-toned abs. Sit ups and crunches can help but not unless it is done properly, it would still be useless to achieve well-toned abs. Some girls also wonder how to get abs. Continue reading “How to Get Abs” »
