It covers everything you need to know about getting six pack abs.
The author, Mike Geary is an experienced personal trainer who has been teaching people how to get a leaner body for years.
Here are some tips that are covered in his program.
I hope these help you get a better outlook on getting six pack abs for real.
1) Start eating foods in their most natural state.
I know you may be thinking that these foods taste bad but they are actually great for killing any cravings you have for junk food.
Foods like lean meats, fruits, nuts, beans, and vegetables are all great for burning pure belly fat.
Here is a list of super foods that you should include in your abs diet for better results.
- Chicken
- Spinach
- Natural Peanut Butter
- Baked Beans
- Bacon (believe it or not)
- Whole Eggs (the yolks are loaded with nutrients)
- Tomatoes
- Bananas
- Oranges
- Oatmeal
- Blueberries
They are a waste of money.
The only supplement that are worth getting is whey protein powder and that is if you have trouble getting enough protein in your diet.
You do not even need vitamin pills as long as you focus on the foods you eat.
3) Do effective ab exercises.
Some great exercises are hanging knee raises, sit ups on an exercise ball, and reverse crunches.
These are way more effective than doing basic crunches on the floor.
They do not strain your back and neck either.
4) Do compound exercises too.
To really burn belly fat compound exercises will really help because they burn loads of calories as opposed to just doing ab exercises.
A great abs workout would focus on compound movements like squats, push ups, deadlifts, shoulder presses and then ab exercises like the ones above.
5) Get proper recovery.
Your abs are muscles just like your biceps and chest.
Do not work them too much and make sure you give them about 48 hours rest.
6) Do cardio to really speed up the fat loss.
To lose your belly fat faster consider going for jogs every other day.
If you are out of shape then I would suggest starting off with steady cardio like walking or jogging then.
move onto something more intense like interval training.
7) Drink water to help wash away your gut.
Aim for 8 glasses of water a day.
It helps your digestive system and burns pure fat.
For every cup you drink your body burns about 8 calories.
