How to Have a Six Pack Without any Equipment
While bulging muscles are the goal of many men, the most desired physical attribute is to have a washboard stomach or six pack abdominal muscles. You don't need a gym membership to achieve it. You can do it at home with a few simple pieces of equipment and a set routine that forces your abs to tighten and define.

Make a commitment not only in the area of working out your abs but also in sticking to your diet. The work you put in to strengthening your abs is only half of the task. It is a mandatory part, but sticking to a diet is the other half. You need to reduce your calorie intake to about 500 calories below your maintenance calorie requirements.

Couple your lower calorie intake with aerobic exercise to reduce your body fat. You already have abs ready to shine forth but you have body fat covering them up. You have to reduce the body fat to be able to see your six pack abs come out.

Define an abs routine that you will do every day. Most exercises that concentrate on building muscles require 24 to 48 hours of rest before you work them again. Abs are the only muscle group you can work every single day of the week. Commit to doing your abs routine at least four times a week.

Include the four best abs exercises in your routine. Include two sets of 25 crunches on a Swiss ball. Add to the routine two sets of 15 V-ups and two sets of bicycle maneuver, each lasting a minute. The exercise that has the biggest impact on your abs is the roman chair. You should start with two sets of 10 reps of straight leg raises and knee ups. Each of these is a starting point. Increase the number of reps on each exercise as you get stronger and have more endurance. As you progress, increase the number of sets to three or four.
