Lower Ab Workout

You will probably have seen some great pictures of teen guys on the Internet with hard, ripped abs. How did they do it? Well, the reality is that some of these guys just got lucky with their genes. There is no doubt that some bodies are more disposed towards the abs being more prominent, more visible, and there are a few guys that will never develop a really prominent six pack because there is just too much skin and tissue on top of their abs. The good news is that almost everyone can, with a good lower ab workout program, get in great shape whether they end up with a full set of ripped abs or a flatter stomach even if the abs are not so prominent. One thing - if you are not through puberty, you will have a hard time building muscle - your body is just not ready for it and you don't have enough of the hormone called testosterone. For you younger guys, the best thing to do it keep physically active while you wait.

If you are a typical skinny teen guy, lean and without much muscle, I have some great news for you. Getting a six pack is going to be easier for you than for any other group of people on the planet. Your abdominals may be underdeveloped, but they are there right below the surface of your skin, fully visible. The other bonus is that as a teenager, hormones are racing around your body and building muscle is easier. This means that you will have a lot less work to do to get a great looking six pack. Even a 15 minute lower ab exercise session three times a week would get you a washboard stomach in a few months, and even after a couple of weeks you should be able to see a definite improvement. You will need to keep it up though if you want the best results.

The good news is that yes, you can still end up with a six pack if you start out as an overweight teen guy. The bad news is that, unlike your skinny friend above, for you it will take more work. This is because you will need to reduce your overall calorie intake if you want a six pack, because the muscle in question is hidden beneath a layer of stomach fat, so even if you exercise that muscle and build it up using a great lower ab workout routine, it will still not be visible under that tummy fat. So, you need to incorporate a healthy, lower calorie diet program into your regime - plenty of veggies, fresh fruit and when you eat meat make it lean meat. The upside is that in return for all the hard work you will be improving your general health into the bargain and you should feel a whole lot better physically and also mentally.

If you really do want a fitter, leaner look, why not take that first step today? Take a look at some of the lower ab workout programs out there on the Internet. There are some good free websites, and there are plenty of e-books and DVDs that you can buy for not much money. The great thing about following a program is that you don't feel so alone - it gives you support for those bad days and keeps you motivated. However you choose to do it, I recommend that you set a routine for yourself, and get into the habit of doing it at a set time. So, what are you waiting for?
