Flatten Your Stomach To Expose The Six Pack Abs
Dreamt of getting six pack abs, didn't you? Tried hard, but.
Struggled for months and yet the ripped midsection remained elusive.
Read this article; it can help you pinpoint the reason for unsatisfactory results. Then, make correction in your program and consciously start working to force the six pack abs show themselves. You do not need any costly gadgets that promise to "develop" the abdominals
What You Need To Do
Begin by working to bring down the fat percentage in your body. This will uncover the six pack; allow them to surface. As dietician, we recommend that ideal percentage of fat for men should be around 10% (by body weight) and that for women around 17%. At the same time, a properly formulated workout program should be followed to consolidate the abdominals.
Sounds easy so far? Let us look at the diet part. Remember a few important points about the foods that you consume:
Prefer whole, unprocessed organic foods to refined, processed and preserved foods. Fresh produce yields best nutrition.
Choose foods that are high in nutritive contents (excluding fat content); more often than not packed and preserved foods have bulk but lack nutritive value.
Replace a part of the grains in your diet with fruits and vegetables. This is a sure shot for helping your body fight off fat
Ensure that your meals do contain a good amount of proteins. This will help repair and replace wear and tear of your muscles.
Fiber helps control release of sugars from the digested foods, hence do not forget to include fiber in your plate. Not overloading the system with too much sugar at one time will avoid conversion of extra sugar into fat.
Fat, as required by the body, can come from nuts, seeds, fish oils, olive and canola oils as well as avocados. Many of these items also help balance levels of hormones in the body a prime reason for staying younger for longer years.
Going through above dietary recommendations, you will realize that it is not at all difficult to regulate the nutritional requirements while avoiding the harmful constituents. Once you understand this, then it will no longer be a punishment to say no to bad foods or, at least, limiting their intake.
Now, let us take a look at the training or the workout part.
Your first aim should be lose the accumulated fat around your middle when you will be able to see the abs. For this to happen, start with simple exercises like squats, lunges, pushups as well as exercises using dumbbells. Gym ball is a useful apparatus for many of the simpler but effective exercises. While not ignoring the full body, focus on the mid section a little more.
How effective is your training? Answer: sweating and need for heavier breathing. Change your exercises after every three or four days to avoid monotony. Gradually introduce tougher exercises in your training regime.
Include outdoor sessions too. Sprinting up a hill, or swimming as if your are in Olympics will give you the effect of resistance training which is generally regarded as the best way to achieve your goal. They take the wind out of you, causing heavy breathing. More oxygen in your body more will be the burning effect on the fat. Remember, burning cannot take place without enough oxygen; at the same time extra oxygen will lead to profuse burning! There goes the fat because of higher metabolic activity! Sounds good, does it not? Well! It works as effectively as well.
Start gradually to begin with. Look forward to the day when you can go full blast and feel happy that you have done your bit to help the body show off those coveted six pack of abs.
Last, but not the least, maintaining the ripped abs is as important as "building" them. So, an active lifestyle with regular exercises (need not always be in the gym) and healthy nutrition is the golden rule.
It matters not if you are a man or a woman, young or old looking to get the six pack abs, you can do so either in a gym or at home by following the guidelines enunciated in this article.
To the readers' health.
