20 Days To Six Pack Workout Plan At Home

In the last decade or so, with the large-scale emergence of high tech fitness centres, somewhere along the way, we seem to have picked up the notion that expensive gym machinery, equipment and expert coaches are a must to sculpt our abdomens. 

Which, let us tell you, is 100% not true. While these things certainly do help to a certain extent, it would be wrong to think that abs are an impossible feat to achieve without them. 

There are a lot of exercises that can quite quickly be done from the comfort of our homes, with the help of just a yoga mat and little guidance. 

Here are 4 six pack exercise at home that is beginner-friendly and will start to show results within 20 days:

• Mountain Climbers
  To lose the excess belly fat from your midsection, you will have to start with exercises that target your core. Mountain climbers will engage your core, thigh, shoulder, arm, and butt muscles when done correctly. Start with a high plank position, with your arms in the line of your shoulders, back and legs straight, your weight resting on your palms and not your toes. Now, bring off your legs to your chest and quickly switch this position by using the other leg this time. The idea is to 'climb' a mountain, but on the floor. You can adjust the intensity according to your capacity.
   
• Jumping Jacks
  Jumping jacks are known for engaging every muscle in the body, including the abs making it one of the best six exercises at home. First, stand straight with your hands at your sides and legs together. Then, jump by bending your knee a little and spread your legs shoulder length apart as you land. Next, jump again, but this time goes back to your original position. Do as many as you can in one go.
   
• Side planks/ Plank variations
  If you want to get rock hard abs by doing six pack exercise at home, you will also have to work your entire abdomen instead of just your core. Side planks will make a necessary addition to your circuit as they target your obliques. Start by lying on your right side with your elbow lifting your upper body and right feet on the left. Now slowly start lifting your hips off the floor and stop when your body is in a straight line. Make sure your elbow is in line with your shoulder, and your palm is balled into a fist. Crunches

• Crunches are exercises that engage all of your core muscles, tone and strengthen them.
  Lie down on your back with you folded at the knees and feet placed flat on the floor, hip-width apart. Brace your core and inhale. Now, exhale and slowly lift your upper body just a few inches off the floor without moving your legs. Keep your neck relaxed. Go back to the start position, and without a break, repeat. Aim for at least 10-15 in one go. You can also try variations like oblique crunches, bicycle crunches and reverse crunches.

  There's no denying that getting a toned midsection free of love handles and tummy fat is a wish all of us harbour. So, now that you know 5 six pack exercise at home, you can start working towards achieving the vision of your body you have in your mind!
