Fat Loss Secrets to Get Flat Six Pack Abs
The Top Fat Loss Secrets for Flat Six-Pack Abs and a Lean Stomach
http://www.workoutanddietstips.com
Today I would like to uncover some of the hardest hitting strategies
for getting rid of that stubborn stomach fat to uncover those flat
six pack abs that everyone wants.
I am often asked if I had to pick 3 things that work time and time
again to get flat lean abs, what would they be?
The first and most important thing to focus on and get control of
to lose your belly fat and get flat abs is cleaning up your diet.
Exercise is obviously important, but your diet is king when it
comes to losing body fat so that you can see your abs.
There's a lot of confusion these days about what a healthy diet
that promotes fat loss consists of and we are bombarded by conflicting
messages especially in the media about what is healthy and what is not.
You have all of these gimmicky diet books about low carb, low fat,
high protein, vegetarian, raw food, fasting, atkins, south beach,
liquid diets, and a ton more.
There's so much conflicting information, that the average consumer
doesn't have a clue where to start when it comes to eating for fat loss.
The second thing that works time and time again, is to focus on the
intensity of your workouts and focus on working the whole body in
order to get the best metabolic response to lose that stubborn stomach fat.
In order to really get lean, the workouts must have a high intensity,
with short rest periods in between exercises, working the largest
muscle groups of the body, instead of trying to isolate the small
muscles like the biceps, triceps, or calves.
For the third thing is about training the abs specifically.
When it comes to training the abs, if you want real results, I
always recommend forgetting about the crunches and situps for
the most part.
They are ok for someone that is not in very good shape, but most
people that already have some training under their belt need a
much better stimulus for their abs than crunches.
Crunches are one of the abs exercises that is probably overdone
because they actually provide the least amount of resistance,
and remember, resistance is what develops and tones the muscles.
One of THE highest resistance exercises for the abs, is hanging
leg raises (but NOT the way you see most people doing them at the gym).
The key to doing these and actually working the hell out of your abs
is to curl your pelvis up as you raise your legs. Almost nobody ever
does this right.
To be honest, the majority of people cannot do this at first,
but I have found some strategies on how to progress to doing
these correctly.
I know this sounds funny to most people, but the MAIN thing that
people are doing wrong to get those flat 6-pack abs is they spend
entirely too much time focusing on training their abs!
WAY too much time spent on abs exercises.
Sounds crazy, but it's true.
Remember, having flat and visible six pack abs is all about reducing
your body fat to a low percentage.
In order for you to do that, your workouts must focus on stimulating
a fat burning hormonal environment in your body, and increasing your
metabolic rate.
That just does not happen when you focus too much time training the
smaller muscle group like the abs.
Instead, you must use most of your time focusing on working the
largest muscle groups of the body like your legs, back, and chest.
That's what stimulates your metabolism and the fat burning hormones
that will get you truly lean and sporting a flat sixxer!
As far as what exercises you should do when it comes to developing
the abs themselves, I again refer to any kind of hanging ab exercises,
as well as some good floor abs exercises like lying leg thrusts.
However, maximum definition in the abs and midsection comes
specifically from losing bodyfat.
The most effective exercises featured in my program for that
goal are various forms of swings and snatches (unique dumbbell
or kettlebell exercises that almost nobody ever does in normal gyms),
squats, deadlifts, lunges, step-ups, clean & presses, mountain climbers,
sprinting, and other full body exercises and calisthenics.
If you want great looking flat abs, focus on those instead of
focusing so much on training the abs directly!
When it comes to diet, here are some simple generalizations to
get people started on the right path immediately.
The most important thing is that your diet is as natural and
unprocessed as possible.
It almost always comes back to the overprocessing of food that
makes it unhealthy, and makes it totally wreck your metabolism
and hormone balance in your body.
For example, why eat refined grains, when you can eat whole grains
(even better are sprouted grains, as I usually recommend limiting
grain foods overall for best results).
Why eat refined sugar, when you can get natural sources of sugar
from a high nutrient whole food like fruit.
Why eat highly processed, refined, and hydrogenated vegetable oils
(these are THE worst thing in the modern diet), when you can eat
natural sources of healthy fats like nuts, avocados, fish, eggs,
coconut milk, organically raised meat, and so forth.
The point is to not fall for some gimmick like extremely low carbs
(although I do believe in a fairly reduced carb intake as that is
a big problem for most people), low fat, super high protein, or any
other combination that has you focusing on one macronutrient vs. another.
Your body needs all macronutrients to thrive and obtain a variety of
vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc. Trying to cut an entire food
group out just works against what your body needs.
I hope you enjoyed this article and plucked several nuggets of info
to get you motivated to start showing off your flat abs shortly.
