However, if you truly want to learn how to lose weight properly then there are ways to ensure maximum results with minimum time spent in the gym. What are they?

While there is tons of scientific evidence to support theories that short bursts of exercise are very effective for fat loss and lean muscle building, many folks confuse this with an easy quick fix. Make no mistakes, you'll need to get your diet in check if you want to see any results at all.

Getting a stronger, leaner midsection ultimately comes down to your diet. Your gym time is still important, but it can be kept very short if you are able to focus on eating a healthier, balanced daily diet. Many people place far too much importance on what plan they are following or which exercises they're performing, but if you don't diet wisely it doesn't matter which exercises you use. You won't get through that layer of fat covering your stomach.

Perform today's workout without any equipment, other than a stopwatch. It can be done anywhere and it will help you to shed some unwanted body fat.

* Full Mountain Climber (feet off floor at the top of each step).

* Right Angle Crunches (knees held in a right angle position during the movement).

* 45 Degree Plank (Up on hands in the top push-up position, holding at a perfect 45 degree angle).

Try performing every exercise listed above for just 30 seconds at maximum intensity. Keep good technique throughout and try to limit your rest periods to the amount of time it takes to transition from one move to the other. Once you have completed all three, that's one round over. Aim for three rounds in total, which will provide you with a five minute abdominal workout routine which can be performed anywhere at all.

Try two rounds to start, but aim to progress towards three after a few weeks.

If you find regular sets and reps of ab crunches or leg raises dull then you will enjoy this type of high intensity, minimum rest workout which can be performed in considerably less time than most people spend working their midsection. Training your abs will begin to feel a little less like a chore, and more like a challenge to improve upon your previous attempt.

Don't confuse minimum time with zero effort, however. In fact, you'll find this short blast just as tough as any other!

If you are able to ensure that you stay on top of your diet and get plenty of water, avoiding fizzy soda drinks and sugary treats each day, then you should expect to see a very positive change within just a couple of weeks thanks to the proven impact of high intensity training.

If you were one of the many people wondering if there really was a way to figure out how to lose weight without spending all day at the gym, you now know how to get a six pack in 3 minutes per day. That's something which other people spend years trying to discover, so be sure to use your new knowledge wisely.
