Question:

Are Ab machines good for getting a six pack? 

 

 

 

Answer:

Ab machines can produce some results for toning the abdominal muscles. However, many people simply need to lose a portion of the stored fat around the belly before any signs of a six pack can be clear to see. No matter how strong or toned those abdominals are, generous amounts of stored fat around the stomach will always hide the abdominal muscles from view.


Therefore, no matter how much you improve them by training on an ab machine, they will never be revealed until the excess fat is lost. For this, you need to reduce the calorie intake slowly, and preferably at the same time, increase the amount you burn off through more activity and/or exercise sessions.


To be honest, I believe that for many people, an Ab machine may be wasted money. Many of us have enough abdominal muscle that can be shown well, however, most of us just have too much fat around the stomach to see them clearly enough. The goal should be to reduce fat stores to get a six pack.

 

Thicker Waist Size!

In fact, another point to consider is if you trained intensely on the ab machine alone, you will build up and thicken the ab muscles as they become stronger. The trouble with doing this is your waist may start to get slightly bigger, even though you're not actually getting fatter.


The bottom line is Ab machines are good for toning the stomach muscles, but six packs are achieved by lowering the amount of fat around the waist so the muscles can be seen. Do not waste all your efforts by doing the wrong type of exercise for your specific weight loss goals!
