Okay, so you want to know how to get a six pack in a month. Is it really possible to get your abdominals that toned so quickly? The thing about six pack abs is that everyone seems to want them but so few people are actually willing to do what it takes to get them. The thing is everyone has abdominal muscles, but for most of us they are covered by a layer of fat. The truth is your abs won’t show unless your body fat is less that 10% (15% for women).
So, the approach you need to take towards getting rid of belly fat is to think in terms of reducing your body’s oevrall fat percentage. But in order to do this, you first need to know what your body fat percentage is at the moment. You can have a personal trainer or doctor measure this for you, or you can get a body composition monitor.
So, once you know what your body fat percentage is, you can then work out how much weight you have to lose in order to be able to get your body fat percentage down to its ideal level.
As an example, let’s use 200 pounds as your current body weight, and 20% as your current body fat percentage. If you wanted to get down to 9% body fat, you would do the following calculation:
* 0.2 (20%) – 0.09 (9%) = 0.11
* Add 1 = 1.11
* 200 divided by 1.11 =’0 pounds (your new body weight goal)
So this means you need to lose 20 pounds of your overall weight. However, you will want to do this without losing any muscle. The only way you can safely do this is to do is slowly, like over the course of about 20 to 22 weeks, using a combination of exercise and good nutrition. If you try do lose weight it any faster than that then you will mess up your metabolism, and that’s really not something you want to do.
