WORKOUT TIP
the abominable abdominal:
Washboard abs are the hottest item in the fitness world and sought after by both men and women. Washboard abs require a lot of discipline, healthy low fat diet and a fairly low percentage of body fat. Many people have an excellent abdominal routine but they also have a thin layer of subcutaneous fat covering up all their hard work. It's important to burn off this layer of fat to see the fruits of your labor.
Working your abs smarter, not longer will help you get in a good workout without doing 250 crunches. For many, the crunch is the only exercise in their abdominal workout and they just keep piling on more sets and reps to reach their fitness goals. If you want to develop your abs, you have to use different exercises just like you would with any other muscle.
