Question

i do about 100 to 150 crunches a night

Answer 1

Eat six times a day! :
breakfast 8am
snack 11am
lunch 1pm
Snack 4pm
Dinner 6pm
Snack 9pm!

this is the best way of course it has to be coupled with weight training and cardio!! the best place I find to learn about this stuff is mens health.com!!

Answer 2

Well with all those crunches the six pack is probiably already there. Not sure of your current bodyfat percentage but it has to be pretty low all around for a six pack. If your not already at a low percentage, you'll need to add some cardio to your workout to lower the overall bodyfat.

You may also have a hard time gaining muscle mass predetermined by your metabolism, i don't know. You can also try adding some leg lifts or flutter kicks for the lower abs and grab a 45lb weight plate and add some poundage to cruches/sit-ups. Not sure of your particular situation, but hope this helps.

Answer 3

Talk to your doctor, they can tell you everyone's metabolism is differant. You also may want to consult with a nutritionist and a personal trainer. I recommend looking for a good personal trainer, one with a nutrition background. They can guide you through the whole process, you diet alone will not rip your abs, if nature was going to do it on her own you wouldn't ahve to do much. More than likely it is going to take some work so look into it.

Answer 4

You need to do more than that . . push yourself. I do 400-500 crunchies a day and after 1 week you will see results. If you don't eat a ton of high fat foods or lots of carbs and work out every other day you will see results. I promise. Join Bally's!

Answer 5

tons of fruits and nuts.

high-protein foods. reduce carbohydrate and fat intake.

hydration is essential when working the abs. unfortunately, a 6-pack can often be obscured by water retention. sometimes, models/bodybuilders fast before the photoshoot, so the lack of water will result in them being able to show off their muscle definition.

Answer 6

Any that has crunches and the same amount of calories eaten as burned. Seriously, it works.

Answer 7

beer diet. Available in 6-packs.

Answer 8

Get one of them books about how to get in shape in your local book stores.

My coach told us to read that sh!t...

Some like "The Abs Diet -Get fit and stay fit plan"

It has 12 essential foods that you gotta eat to have them 6 packs.

Peace.

Answer 9

the beer diet...you can get some nice 6 packs on that diet...6 packs of miller are good...

Please read the recommendations below. Also, go to the book store and locate the book "Weight Training for Dummies". In chapter 15 you will find excellent information on how to perform abdominal exercises correctly. Page 218 of the book dispels all the myths surrounding abdominal training.

The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:

*1) Burn more calories then you're consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity minus the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF). A website that explains this formula in more detail and will help you determine how many calories you need to reach or maintain a certain weight is at http://www.primusweb.com/fitnesspartner/library/weight/calsburned.htm

Get a diet and fitness calculator that you can put on your computer or cell phone. This will allow you to easily calculate the above formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.

Set realistic goals for your ideal body weight. Here are two websites that will calculate a suggested body weight:
Adults: http://www.halls.md/ideal-weight/body.htm
Teens/Children: http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/exercise/weight/bmi.html

It is difficult and unhealthy to lose more than one or two pounds per week. There are 3,500 calories in a pound. If you eat 500 fewer calories per day for a week you will lose one pound. If you burn through exercise 500 more calories per day for a week you will lose one pound.

*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.

Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:
