Achieving that elusive and frustrating killer 6-pack is almost close to impossible. I say otherwise. But, It is surely not about having that wicked washboard stomachs we see in Hollywood films. It is all about understanding our abs’ practical function for our body, if we could comprehend that, then we would know how and when to start working on it.

Most body builders work their abs in the later part of their routine; little do they know that our abs’ main function is to strengthen our core. A solid core is the most essential muscle group of the body, as it is the core that holds the body’s weight and balance. Not only that, strength building starts from the abdominal muscles.

A professional weight lifter depends on his solidly built middle body’s strength to lift tremendous amounts of weights. A sprint runner builds speed through upper body balance and leg strength. Essentially, while in the gym, find time to work your abdominal muscles. Cardiovascular exercises could alleviate the possibility of achieving a killer 6-pack. It is the idea that we have to eliminate the fat surrounding the abdominal area thus exposing the muscles underneath. There are several effective ways to go about it, it is not easy but it is definitely doable. Intense abdominal workout with high repetitions is most effective in ripping out that 6-pack.

Shedding away that excess abdominal fat is never easy; in fact it is the hardest most difficult part of our anatomy to sculpt.  This is where proper dieting plays a major role. The key is not to starve yourself but eat a regular 4-6 smaller meal a day, plenty of protein and 3-4 hours apart. This would keep your metabolism up but keep the build up of fat off.

Guys will be guys. No matter what the profession and no matter how much you earn.

We all love to have that killer chest. Well we are in luck, amongst the entire major muscle group the chest area is the easiest to pump up!  So let us cut to the chase and get going.

1. Flat bench press - This is your ordinary bench press, but one of the top muscle-building and strength gaining exercises. This exercise will give your middle chest a good work out.

2. Incline bench press - Your bench must be inclined at about 45 degrees. Bring the bar down to your upper chest, inches away from your chin. Very good for upper chest.

3. Decline bench press - You want your bench declined so that your feet are at a higher level off the ground than your head. The bar should come down to your lower chest. This exercise is good for your lower chest.

Make sure each repetition is done correctly. You do not want momentum. Do each repetition slowly for maximum strength. Workout 2-3 times a week and try getting up to 4 sets of between 8-10 reps for each exercise. You want to feel pretty sore and get nice and pumped at the end of each exercises. If you don’t feel pumped, then you’re not lifting enough weight and the only person missing the full effect is yourself. So if you want to gain chest muscle, then you need to start pushing yourself to the limit. It might be hard at first, but when you start getting into it you will see good results.

Overtime, man’s perception of beauty changed. Well beauty is beauty, but Man has discovered that appeal or attractiveness comes from different sizes, colour and taste. Man is so obsessed with beauty that he has gone to great lengths just to achieve a perfect killer appeal.  Body sculpting is a very ancient art, that it still very much alive today.

In ancient times, being fat in some cultures was considered appealing. But in the late 20th century, where health and beauty are noted to have a very close kinship, people all over the world are suddenly aware of the increasing appeal of a chiselled physique.

Upper class metro sexual gyms and spas are sprouting like mushrooms everywhere.

But with proper attitude, diet and exercise anything is possible.

Okay, so now let us narrow down our quest to the TOP 4 exercises which you can do at home. Be mindful of the golden rule that a washboard flat stomach, ripped down to the smallest visible fiber is a primal factor in sexiness. So here we go:

1.   The Abs Push Up. To do this exercise, start in a push up position and tighten your abs. Then bend your left leg and move your left knee up beneath your stomach, diagonally toward your right shoulder, and then back. Repeat this exercise twenty times and then do the same exercise using the other leg.

2.  Chopping Wood. Start in the squat position and hold a free-weight of a light to medium weight in front of your left angle. Then extend your legs and move your hands toward the opposite (right) shoulder. Also do this one twenty times.

3.  Scissors Kicking. Position yourself on your back and place your hands under your lower back for balance. Then keeping your low back pressed tightly against the floor raise both of your legs, pointing straight, a few inches off the floor. Next  while contracting your abdominal muscles and keeping your back pressed closely to the floor, raise your right leg straight up in a 90-degree angle. Then in a fast tempo bring your right leg down to its previous position while at the same time lifting the left leg. Continue this alternate exercise twenty times.

4.   Alternate Twist. Sit down on the floor, bend your knees and stretch your arms out in front of you, fingers interlocked. Then lean back slightly so that your chest is at a forty-five degree angle in relation to the ground. All the while remembering to always keep your abs contracted. Secondly, begin twisting your body from one side to another, still keeping your abs tight and leaning back a little bit. Also do this one twenty times.

There you have them. Four bodybuilding workouts and exercises that will get you started toward the body of your dreams that others will be jealous of and silently wish they had.
