So, yes, it's totally possible to see your abs in four weeks. If you're overweight it'll take longer, but the immediate changes should be dramatic enough to keep you going until a six-pack starts taking shape.
To get ripped in a period as short as four weeks means that you do a series of intense workouts. It will require you to strength train more and at a higher intensity and even crank up your cardio full-body workout routine.
Most beginners will see noticeable muscle growth within eight weeks, while more experienced lifters will see changes in three to four weeks. Most individuals gain one to two pounds of lean muscle per month with the right strength training and nutrition plan.
While the process of getting ripped can take a long time depending on how you workout and what your diet looks like, intense training can certainly produce results in around 2 months. During this time you can expect to see weight loss or gain (depending on your goals) and a basic change in your figure.
Go to the gym and lift heavy weights with full-body bodybuilding type workouts three times a week, and at least twice a week go into the park and do sprint training for 30 minute sessions. Put your heart into it and this should transform your body in 5 weeks!
After a month of regular exercise, you will be noticing improvements to your strength and fitness. "You may be able to do more reps in weight training or slightly raise the load, or you're able to walk, jog or cycle a bit faster," Robergs says.
Three weeks is long enough that some pretty significant body comp changes can happen if you're willing to suffer enough. Here's what I'd do: Hit cardio twice a day, 30 minutes each time, once in the morning, once in the evening. Lift seven times a week.
Some people will gain substantially more, and some will gain less muscle over the course of a month. But in general, the average is about 1 kg for males and 0.5 kg for females.
1 kg of muscle may appear to be the size of baseball whilst 1kg of fat will be three times the size and look like a wobbly bowl of Jelly. Muscle is a denser tissue that takes up less room in our bodies than an equal weight of fat.

Your timeline to a six-pack depends on the body fat percentage you're starting with. A good rule of thumb (and a safe one) is to aim to lose 1 to 2 percent of body fat per month. So, unveiling your abs can take anywhere from 3 months to 2 years.
Why the word "jacked": His muscles are clearly larger than most guys, like they're propped up by something — kind of like a jacked-up truck. Favorite day in the gym: Balanced, muscle-building workouts. Diet: Protein, protein, and more protein.
Muscle fitness – expect to see small changes in the first few weeks. Within three to six months, an individual can see a 25 to 100% improvement in their muscular fitness – provided a regular resistance program is followed.
Between two and four weeks of regular exercise you will start to see measurable improvements in your strength and fitness. If weight loss is a goal and your exercise program is being complemented by healthy eating then you may start to see desirable changes in your weight.
So, how much muscle can you realistically gain in one month? For most beginners, gaining 2-4lbs of muscle per month is a realistic rate of muscle gain. More advanced lifters should aim to gain 1-2lbs of muscle per month, as research has shown slower rates of muscle gain the more advanced a lifter becomes.
