Despite the recent spate of scandals that Tiger Woods has undergone, the latest issue of Vanity Fair with him shirtless on the cover has resulted to another flurry of buzz. Who knew that underneath those baggy golf t-shirts are washboard abs?

Now, having abs like Tiger – or something even better like six-packs, washboard abs or a ripped stomach is something that a lot of men aspire to. But how can it be achieved?

If you have long been doing crunch exercises without seeing any results, the following article on how to get washboard abs written by Vince DelMonte is a must-read. DelMonte is the author of “Your Six Pack Quest” which virtually makes him an authority on how you can really get ripped abs.

DelMonte touched up on the different aspects of getting washboard abs, like how important it is not to do too much isolated abs exercises. Instead, you can do crunches on a stability exercise ball to increase your stability. Having a ‘clean diet’ which will remove the layers of fat on your stomach is also a nice first step to take so that you can work on developing your six-pack abs later.

If you’re a guy who is in his late 30s or 40s, don’t you wish that you started bodybuilding when you were still a teenager so that you only need to maintain a muscular frame as you age – and not aimlessly work on bulking up? In the following article by fitness expert Vince DelMonte, he dishes out the top 10 tips on how teenagers can become successful bodybuilders – as young as they are.

This is a pretty important subject, because any wrong move by a teenager who would like to bulk up may produce not-so-desirable results during his adulthood. So what are some of the tops that DelMonte offered? First, teenagers who would like to bulk up should avoid steroids. This may already be a given, but some impressionable teens still make the mistake of taking these drugs just so that they can get the body that they want.

Clean eating or developing healthy eating habits; focusing on full body workouts; conditioning and sticking to basic supplements are the other tips that DelMonte dishes out for teens.

All in all, Vince DelMonte’s 2-part feature on how teens can successfully turn from being a gawky, thin teenager into a muscled, well-built pre-adult is an all-important guide which makes it a must-read.
