Talking Tough About Toning Abs

People interested in toning abs usually miss one crucial thing:

? they tend to think it's about the workout.? These are the folks who'll do crunch after crunch and leg lift after leg lift.? They'll work their abs till the pain is so bad they can no longer even move.? They'll do this for months, maybe years:? still the persistent ring of flab still remains.? Even with the workouts, they still can't see the ripples they've worked so hard to get.? So they've built their abs, but what can they do about toning them?

The answer is deceptively simple:? the key to toning abs is diet.? There are at least two factors in a good workout regimen;?the exercise and the diet.? This has always been the case, no matter what one ad or another tells you.? It doesn't matter how much Slim fast you drink;?if you're still sitting on your butt for sixteen hours a day and sleeping for the other eight, you are not going to get in shape.? On the same token:? it doesn't matter how many crunches, sit--ups, leg-lifts, bicycles, or waves that you do;? if you're still eating pork rinds for lunch and Ho-Hos for dessert, your abs will always retain the same flabbiness you've been trying to get rid of this whole time.

This is a key concept that most of the get-fit-quick schemes on TV conveniently forget to tell you.? All right:? so it's not really that they've forgotten to tell you;?it?s that they want you to believe that you can have the body of a god without having to put any work into it.? They tell you these things in order to do one thing, and one thing only:? to sell you something.? Usually that something is sneakily paired with a something else (owned by the same company) to fill in the other component of a proper work-out regimen.? The truth is that these companies know that toning abs is, in fact, a two-pronged process.? They hope that you don't figure that out till you've called their company and bought their product.?

Let me be absolutely clear:? any commercial you see is selling you something.? Welcome to America.? Every ad company wants to sell you something assuming you're too stupid to realize what they're selling you.? Frankly, if you're gullible enough to think that a diet can tone your abs on its own, you deserve to be taken for the money you spend on that diet.? If you think that any single ab machine can give you the toned, rock-hard abs you see the models parading around with, you deserve to be taken for the money you spend on that machine.? Know that if you find a hybrid approach-- exercise AND diet together-- you will be much better off in your quest to tone those abs.
