The Most Common Reasons For Not Evolving Abdomen.

The abdomen is one of the most famous muscles after pectoral and biceps at the same time is the muscle that most people fail to develop or be able to generate a remarkable change. With this in mind, look at the most common reasons for your abdomen not be growing and how to get around these problems.

1 - exercises being held  without charge:

The abdomen is a muscle like any other and therefore need stimulus and "reasons" to grow.Many people end up measuring the effectiveness of an abdominal workout by the number of repetitions they can do, when they should try to progress using loads (as well as any other muscle).

Use excessive repetitions (over 20) will only generate an increase in muscle strength and flee the focus which is actually muscle hypertrophy. Give preference to exercises that can be done with loading and first put them into practice, using the exercises using only body weight lastly, as a "finisher".

2 - Lack or excess training frequency:

The muscles that make up the abdomen usually recover fast, but not as fast as many people usually think. You can train the abdomen up to 3 times a week, giving rest at least one day between workouts. This way you can maximize the amount of stimuli we give to the muscles grow while still giving proper time for muscle recovery.

3 - Avoid machines and pulleys:

We know we should give preference to free weight exercises to generate maximum hypertrophy, however there is an exception to the abdomen: simply do not have many "free" exercise choices in addition to the exercises done with the body. In this case the exercises using machines and pulleys are great allies to add charge to the workout.

4 - Diet:

Despite being a beaten subject, the diet is nonetheless one of the most common reasons for people failing to change the look of the abdomen. Including many people already have strong abdomens and "set" which, unfortunately, are hidden beneath the fat.

To show your workout results, many people need to download the content of fat and this is not achieved only with training or with the erroneous idea of ​​doing thousands of crunches to burn fat location. This is only achieved through reduced calorie diet (cutting).

Remember also that train hard without having a defined abdomen, it is far from being a waste of time. Having a strong and well-developed abdomen can help in carrying out various other exercises and even protect you from injury
