Exercising on unstable surfaces is the fastest way to improve your results in your six pack ab quest. In an effort to improve results amongst all of my clients, unstable surface training has become a major influence, also leading to smaller bellies, stronger low backs, and faster results in all aspects of fitness.

Training for functional abdominal strength while training for aesthetic purposes just makes sense. Functionally, your abs work to stabilize your lower spine, flex your trunk, rotate your trunk, and digest food. It is always important to consider the actions of the muscles you are training for two reasons:

Improving your opportunity to stimulate all of a muscle, as opposed to a single region that would normally be recruited from an exercise. Additionally, you will have a sense of becoming stronger with daily activities, which ultimately leads to increased compliance in the gym.

Trimming your waistline to the point that you will be able to have six pack abs requires the consideration of dietary habits. In actuality, I do not prefer that people diet. Instead, I’d like to see people choose foods that are inefficient in nature, meaning that they require more energy for digestion. In doing so, you will require more energy use through digestion and improve belly fat loss results.

Six pack ab success depends largely on consistency and diligence. In order to improve your fitness level to this extent, it is best to progress slowly over time. An exercise program aimed at long-term results is an exercise program aimed at long-term success.
