Next we have Crunch Fitness in Blackhawk Plaza In Danville. Very nice remodel job in 2009 when Crunch took over of the location from Bally Total Fitness. Great well rounded classes and  personal training. All new equipment makes this club hard to pass up especially if you live close by.

Now not to dissuade you, but I can tell you from having worked in health clubs for over 10 years, that about 80% of the people who join will usually show up for the first month and then disappear from the gym or are abducted…I’m still trying to figure this out:)

Seriously…How do you prevent this? Get accountability!

If you are a fitness newbie then you might want to get personal training

Picking the right personal trainer can be tough too. Most people who train with me do so because they feel comfortable with me and trust me and know I can do what I say. Make sure you feel comfortable and get the best trainer you can afford.

Having trained in this area for over ten years I have seen lots of trainers come and go and can tell you do not look at the trainers shape and think because they are fit they must be a good trainer. On the other hand look at there current clients and past clients to see how effective they are at training. I tell my clients “you are my billboard so you better make me look good” and then I give them my dedication and commitment so we can transform their body and life for the better.

Because we often we create obstacles that prevent us from exercising. This is a great reason to hire a professional trainer ACCOUNTABILITY. After you find the right personal trainer and  get started, you’ll find it easier to get healthy because you will exercise, eat right and have the help to reach your goals.

Before you decide to start training make sure you can commit to making it a part of your life. Results take time . How much time? That really depends on your health, your goals, and your trainer among other things. I can tell you that most of my clients have to commit to at least 6 months with me, minimum.  If they want fast and cheap I send them on their way.

So why am I telling you this. I want you to forget the idea that there is some magic to getting a six pack abs. Granted genetics plays a role but whats really involved in sculpting the perfect set of ab muscles never change. When I tell you it may come as a huge revelation or maybe it wont. The fact remains there is a straightforward system that works every time…over time.
What? Did you think there was a shortcut?

If this has been a goal or dream for you , I encourage you to get dedicated and put some disciple in your life to do it. Because once you know what to do there are no more excuses. So here we go and listen to what I am telling you very carefully. Diet + Exercise= Fit Sexy Body. So now the cats out of the bag sort o speak. Let me break it down for you.

The diet part is actually simple; you need to eat in a way that makes your body drop body fat to the point where you are happy with how you look. You have probably never heard it put this way before. But I can tell you having looked and worked with all types of bodies from professional athletes to realtors everybody is different. So 15% body fat on Gina who is 6’6 may be fine. but if Gina were 4,6 then Houston we have a problem. Do you kinda see that. There is more to it than I can cover here so for sake of briefness lets continue…

Six Pack Jack!

As you probably know from reading other posts of mine or one of my ebooks, I know that people eat too many carbohydrates, the wrong proteins, and don’t get enough sleep. Generally the only diet I endorse is a form of the paleo diet I will talk about later. I believe that balance is the key and if you stay away from anything man made or processed you will do fine. I will cover specifics later.

But now for exercise.

this is where most of you fail and end up in front of me or another personal trainer with the Jay I’m doing everything right but no six pack…wa wa wa:) Seriously to get a set of six pack abs you will have to do two things; get in the correct kind of cardio to increase your metabolism and blow torch the fat and do the right kind of ab exercises. Yep there are good and plain ridiculous ab exercises.

Now as far as cardio exercise you must use variety and intervals correctly to maximize your effort and fat burning. This is critical and the difference between good and great results. I will cover the variables later on down the road like, how much , how long, and when, etc. For now lets continue and talk…

ABS..Basically your abs are the six pack muscles and your muscles called the rectus abdominus. I break them up into upper, middle, and lower and have specific exercises to target

Sexy Abs Just Feel Amazing

each area. The best exercise for your abs tho that hits all areas and is a good beginner….sit-ups done correctly do wonders for the tummy. If you are not doing situps currently try this do 6 sets of 10-20 reps before your workout every other day for 6 weeks. Once you can do this like its no big deal then up the anti by holding a 10lb dumbbell on your upper chest and do 6 sets of 10-20 reps for another 6 weeks and after this you will see what I’m talking about….provided you are eating correctly too.

If you follow this plan you will see results and depending on how much body fat you need to lose you can see those lovely bumps appearing quite nicely on your tummy called your ab muscles. The other great thing about strengthening your abs besides looking great is that strengthening your abs can help your back and your overall posture. So drop and give me 20 and let me know how it goes and if you decide you need professional help…you know who to call:) Jay Corbett 925-272-4847

Danville Personal Trainer

Every year I hear the same line…”this is the year” you guys make  the commitment to get in shape and lose weight. Some of you may even have the motivation to begin on your own but the sad truth is most of you will never even literally make it off the ground and its not  because you lack the knowledge or the motivation.There is usually some strong reason for you to lose weight and get in shape like you have an important event coming up like your  high school reunion, someones wedding, or that Cancun trip. But sadly its in vain cause you are again lying to yourself and you are going to break the promise you made that you will lose  x pounds before the event.Whether you want to lose weight, increase lean muscle mass, become more flexible, or train for sport, a Personal Trainer  In Danville can help. Because I am a voracious learner you always receive the most cutting edge instruction on fitness, Personal Trainers in Danville can provide more than just help with the “how to”. Danville Personal Trainers also offer nutrition counseling.

If the idea of working out in a gym like Crunch Fitness In Blackhawk, or 24hr Fitness in Danville horrifies you….and it should…, and you are more comfortable in your own home,  Personal Trainers in Danville will design a program that will work in your garage , in home gym, or backyard, no equipment necessary too. Personal Trainers in Danville usually bring their own gear.

Innovative tips to help define your six pack abs, lose body fat, build muscle, and live a healthier lifestyle. I’ll even cover controversial topics that mainstream health professionals are afraid to tell you such as how certain saturated fats can actually be good for you, and how long duration cardio exercise can actually be bad for you! “I don’t train my abs very much. Once a week for about 15 – 20 minutes. That’s it. Seriously – no kidding. I do however work my abs when doing exercise for my other body parts.

From training at Bally at Blackhawk, and coaching fitness boot camps in Danville for over 5 years now, I have discovered the secret about Killer Six Pack Abs. Its truly amazing too that since 65% of American adults are overweight or obese, most of us can relate to the feelings of frustration and failure associated with so many diet and exercise plans.

Killer Abs Workout Mantra  – Because your abs are part of your core stabilizer muscles and are activated whenever you do any upper body exercise even when lying on a bench!Yes when you do squats, bent rows barbell/dumbbell curls, shoulder press, chin ups, you are working your abs.

Trust me that If you’re trying to get a six-pack, you need low body fat. Men between 4-10% and Women 5-12%

Many people incorrectly assume that if they do enough crunches, sooner or later they will get a six-pack. That unfortunately represents most of the people I overhear at Bally and 24hr fitness. Unfortunately, in many cases, they don’t realize that they already have a six pack – their six pack is hidden under their body fat!

Developing that six pack belly doesn’t come easy. There’s no machine that can do the work for you. Abs must be developed the old fashioned way. You have to earn them — and you start with core training. Yes, you can exercise abs with the perfect abdominal workout. But without good,  solid nutritional strategies, you won’t be melting away your excess body fat so that others can SEE your six pack abs.

Just by eating properly you will be contributing to belly-busting everyday you will observe a slowly slimming tummy. All it takes to get you closer to those killer abs you’ve been aiming for is by adding healthy foods to your diet and don’t forget to work out too.  Most of the programs that you are probably familiar with focus on ab specific exercises, which would seem to make sense, but actually isn’t true.

You are probably under the impression that a six pack is always just barely unobtainable, and all you have to do is figure out the secret exercise to give you yours. It seams to happen the easiest with the abs though, in all the other exercises I have I also thought I was the only one to get this from exercise but its good to know there are others out there.

The fun way to a killer six pack! Join My Dublin Boot Camp :There you can experience a scientifically proven and revolutionary ab blasting body shaping program. The program includes workouts that are fun, challenging and get results. Its a  great full body workout and a killer abs workout for that matter too! Most people are blown away at how easy you can get the body of your dreams when you know what to do.
