Karen Pang has great abs

Since you’re reading this article it’s pretty safe to assume you want to have a great set of abs. If you want to develop a  set of visibly toned abs, today’s post outlines 4 essential steps to get great abs as well as get a buffed, sexy body like the fitness model pictured to the left.

So what are the 4 steps to great abs?

Step 1: Make the commitment. Almost everyone wants to look good in front of the mirror and to members of the opposite sex (in as well as out of clothes).  BUT few people are willing to do what it takes to make it happen. And until you make that commitment, losing abdominal fat, getting in shape and creating amazing abs is merely a wish you’d like to see comet true. But once you cross that line …. it becomes a goal. And goals require a certain amount of thinking and planning.

If you’re serious about getting great abs and don’t want to “spin your wheels” through the process of getting lean enough to have visible sexy abs, you should check out Tom Venuto’s Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle program.

Step 2: Evaluate your diet.  A lot of people think you’ve got to “go on a diet” to eliminate the stomach fat that stands between you and those  visible six pack abs you want. That’s not always the case. What you must do is take an objective look at every single food item you put in your mouth and ask yourself “is this going to help me reach my goal?“. if it’s not helping you, replace it with food that supports your plan to get great abs.

Step 3:  Develop a solid, all-purpose work out plan. The best way to work your abs (from my experience) is to work the entire body! So your plan should include strength training component (free weights or body weight exercises) and a cardio exercise component (IMO  “traditional” cardio isn’t necessary … jump rope, power walk through the park, run the stairs, etc.) to

You can get great abs like these

lose unwanted body fat as well as develop lean fat burning muscle. All you need is 3 -4 days a week to work out. The remainder of your week is for rest and recovery.

Step 4: Follow through. This is where action talks and the B.S. walks. Almost anyone can go through the initial planning phases of this plan to get great abs. But only the truly motivated will actually follow through on taking action.  So if you’re serious about developing a set of amazing abs with the buffed body to go with them … cut out the excuses and take action until you can stand in front of the mirror admiring your amazing abs (or stand in front of your favorite person, while they admire your amazing abs ; ).

But what about exercise … can’t I make up for not eating healthy by having a superior work out program?

No. Even though there are some great fat burning exercises to help you lose abdominal fat, these exercises can’t overcome a poor nutrition plan. As I’ve said in previous posts and articles, your focus must be on your day to day diet.

Okay so what foods should I be eating to lose enough abdominal fat to get visible six pack abs? Do I have to eat a bunch of bean sprouts and tofu to get results?

Even though bean sprouts and tofu are good sources of protein, you’re not limited to eating this type of food. You want to eat good sources of lean protein, carbs from high fiber sources and good fats. In the 10 Fat Burning Foods post I give you 10 (duh) foods that you should be eating to get rid of excess body flab. Click the link to check out the recommended foods.

Here are 3 more foods you should eat if you ever hope to lose enough abdominal fat to get six pack abs:

1. Kale – leafy greens like kale and mustard greens are loaded with vitamins, minerals, fiber and protein making them perfect for men & women on a six pack abs diet. Just be careful not to overcook them – if you do, this super food won’t be so super;

2. Fish – pretty much any wild fish is great for losing weight because they’re a good source of low fat protein. And fish like salmon are an excellent source of omega 3 polyunsaturated fats which is known to reduce risk of sudden heart failure. How you cook fish is going to determine whether or not you get the most nutritional benefit from eating it … so skip frying it and go the grilled or baked route ;

3.  Jalapenos – Jalapenos … if your tongue can handle them, are an excellent fat burning food. The reason for this is they contain a chemical called capsaicin which speeds up your heart rate and the increased rate in turn speeds up the metabolism.

BONUS: Drink Milk. Milk? Yes …. milk. Here’s why: the calcium in it can help your body burn more calories (can trigger your metabolism to speed up) AND milk is rich in complex carbohydrates which boost your metabolism by keeping your insulin levels low after you polish off a meal.

These are just a few of the foods that you can eat when dieting for abs.

If you’re serious about getting lean enough to have a visible sexy set of six pack abs, you must have a good nutrition plan that’s going to help you achieve the results you want.

Don’t make the mistake of thinking (falsely) that you make up for the lack of a solid nutrition program with a great work out routine. I know a lot of guys who think they can overcompensate by working out harder at the gym, but it doesn’t work! What you eat and how you eat is the key to getting those abs you want.

A program like the Truth About Abs reveals excellent information about nutrition (and working out) to lose abdominal fat that stands between you & the sexy abs you want, keep it off and get in the best shape of your life! Click Here to get the details on the program today.

Let’s face it … everybody wants to have a great set of toned abs.  From the teenager working hard to get a ripped six pack, the over 30 guy trying to get back in ‘fighting’ shape, to the mom who wants her body to look like it did before she had children. And there are lots of six pack abs diet and abs work out programs on & offline that promise to help you lose abdominal fat and get toned abs really fast with very little effort on your part.

The sad truth is …. many of these programs are nothing but hype and the only thing you will lose is time & money. But this doesn’t mean that getting the abs you want is impossible!

No.

If You’re Serious About Losing Abdominal Fat And Getting Amazing Toned Abs, Here Are 5 TRUTHS You Should Know:

1. You Can’t Spot-Reduce

Many people search for the best abs exercise to tone their abs, but the truth is you can’t target a specific part of your body for fat loss. You lose excess fat from your entire body. And the best way to do this is to consume fewer calories while eating nutrient rich foods and working out 3 – 4 days a week for at least 30 minutes a session.

2.    Cardio (the Right Way) Is Important

Cardio can help you burn fat and boost your metabolism IF you do it the right way. 30 minutes of high intensity interval training 3-4 times a week will help you burn fat quickly and seriously boost your level of fitness. Boxing, kick boxing, playing tennis, jumping rope and doing wind sprints are great exercises to burn fat.

3.    Cut Back On the Calories

To lose abdominal fat it’s necessary to have a caloric deficit. And to do this you need to burn more calories than you consume. And the easiest way to do this is to eat smaller portions of nutrient dense foods. Create a daily caloric deficit and you have no choice BUT to lose weight. A healthy rate of weight loss is about 0.5 – 2 pounds per week .

4.    If You Want Abdominal Fat Loss … Sit Ups Are Useless

A lot of people are surprised by this because we’ve been told over and over to do sit ups and crunches to develop six pack abs. BUT the truth is  … these exercises (if done right) are only good for strengthening your abs and lower back. The don’t do anything for getting rid of fat around your midsection.

5.    Exercises You Should Do

Instead of traditional ab exercises do these instead: planks, squats or lunges with dumbells/barbells, push ups and hanging leg raises (hang from a pull up bar and bring your knees toward your chest in a upward crunch motion).

Getting toned abs isn’t as easy as the TV infomercials try to make you believe, but anyone with the desire and determination to do it can lose abdominal fat. Just NEVER give up. And not only will you tone your abs, but you will be healthier and be in the best shape of your life.

I know many of you are looking for tips to help you lose the abdominal fat that stands between you and those sexy six pack abs you want. So I thought it would be helpful to give you 15 easy to follow diet for abs tips you can use to get rid of abdominal fat.

No none of these 15 tips require you to make any crazy sacrifices or anything like that. BUT you are going to have to give up or at least cut back on a few things to get the maximum benefit from these super fat burning tips.

Here are your 15 easy to follow tips to help you get rid of your spare tire:

1. If you really want to lose stomach fat, FOCUS on your diet.  As I’ve said before, 90% of your results are going to come from WHAT you eat (and HOW). Exercise, while very important to get six pack abs program, is responsible for the remaining 10%. With such a large percentage of your success tied to the food you consume, you need to take every opportunity to add to your knowledge of how to diet for abs and nutrition.

2. Keep a journal of all the foods you eat and the beverages you drink daily. Doing this will help you become more aware of your eating habits and will reveal the areas you should make changes in.

3. Cut back on sugary treats like chocolate, ice cream, cakes and cookies. You don’t have to eliminate them, but you should limit these types of foods to 1-2 times a week max as part of your ‘cheat’ plan.

4. Eat good sources of proteins at every meal. You can eat egg whites or a yogurt with fruit for breakfast, tuna, a turkey burger or turkey breast for lunch, and chicken, fish and beans for dinner.

5. Eat meals filled with whole grain foods, vegetables and beans – but no meat – at least twice a week. Doing this will increase your intake of fiber and cut fat.

6. Cut out the sodas,  especially the ‘diet’ sodas. And cut out the hard alcoholic drinks. If you’re a beer lover, you can have an 12 oz. bottle of Michelob Ultra or Miller Lite 1-2 times a week.

7. Eat at least 2 servings of fresh, in season fruit daily for breakfast and afternoon snacks or desserts. Some of the best fruits for fat burning diets are grapefruits, apples, blueberries and oranges.

8. Drink water! Drink at least 64 oz. of water throughout the day. A twist of lemon or lime adds some flavor and helps you burn belly fat. Many dieters balk at doing this, but your body needs water to metabolize fat and to stay hydrated. Drinking water also flushes fluids from your system and helps control your appetite.

9. Eat fats in moderation. You should eat ‘good’ fats in moderation and eliminate ‘bad’ fats from your diet altogether. Beware of so called “low-fat” or “lite” products, which can be more fattening than the product they’re replacing.

10. Chew your food slowly and talk while eating. You will discover that you feel more satisfied eating slower than you would if you raced through your meal. You will consume fewer calories because you’re eating less.

11. Eat grated carrots – they make an excellent snack. Grated carrots are more filling than a whole carrot and high in fiber.

12. Eat more fiber rich foods – whole grain breads or cereals and fruits for example. The increased fiber will help you digest your food better and help you reduce body fat.

13. Choose food that you can chew. It may sound strange, but the act of chewing will make you feel more full. This means eating fruit instead of drinking fruit juice. If you have soup, make sure it is the chunky kind.

14. Plan your meals and snacks for the day and stick to it. This will prevent you from grabbing any old high calorie food or empty calorie snack when you’re feeling hungry.

15. Turn off the TV when eating your meals and snacks. Studies have proved that we eat larger portions of food when watching television – probably because we are mor focused on whatever show or event we’re watching than the amount of food we are eating.

By following the abs diet tips presented in this article, you will lose stomach fat. A diet for six pack abs can be very challenging, but just stick with it. You will get that sexy six pack you want. Your clothes will fit better, you will look better and get more attention from the opposite sex … which is always nice .

Now there are many reason why people throw in the towel.

If you want to break through this confusion, discover how to read/analyze food labels. And you’ll know for yourself if a food item can help you or hurt you in your diet for abs program.

Click Here if you want start losing stubborn belly fat and finally get amazing six pack abs TODAY!

To help you cut through the confusion, this article reveals 5 tips you REALLY should know about food labels when you’re on a six pack abs diet.

Here’s one BIG THING you need to know before you read any further:

Everything you need to know to make the best choices about foods to help your burn more calories can be found on (a) the nutritional facts panel; and (b) the ingredients listing.

So pay close attention to:

a. serving size & the number of servings;

b. calories in a serving & calories from fat;

c. total fat;

d. total carbohydrates; and

e. protein

Now here are the 5 food label tips you really need to know IF you ever hope to lose stomach fat and get sexy, visible abs:

1. Serving size & number of servings in the food package reveals the actual amount of nutrients you would be consuming if you eat this food. Nutrients are ALWAYS listed as per serving, so be sure the serving size and the number of servings don’t work against you in your dieting to get six pack abs program.

2. Beware of the amount of calories & the calories from fat per serving. Most of us don’t pay attention to the amount of calories we consume and as a result, we take in much more than our bodies need.

3. Eat ‘good’ fats in moderation and cut out the ’bad’ fats. You want to eat moderate amounts of unsaturated fats while staying away from saturated fats and trans fatty acids, which can boost your body’s cholesterol levels and clog your arteries.

4. Eliminate refined sugars & artificial sweeteners from your diet. This blew me away: Americans eat about 156 lbs. of
refined sugar each year. Hard to believe, but it’s true.  Food companies aren’t going to help you cut down; they hide sugar in ‘fat free’ or ‘low fat’ foods. And artificial sweeteners like Aspertaime or high fructose corn syrup actually cause you to gain more body fat, so beware of foods that contain them.

5. Eat good sources of protein daily with every meal. Make sure you’re getting enough protein to help you lose belly fat and build lean muscle. How much protein do you need a day? Opinions vary, but most experts recommend 15 – 30 grams of protein per day.

Click Here if you ever hope to discover the truth about what’s really standing between you and the sexy six pack abs you want …

Are you dazed & confused about how to lose abdominal fat and get the visible sexy six pack abs you want?

Don’t feel bad about it because you’ve got a lot of company. Even with all the information online, in books and in magazines on how to lose abdominal fat and get six pack abs, many men & women continue to make BIG mistakes when on a six pack abs diet.

sexy abs like these come from superior nutrition and abs training

If you want to avoid making these mistakes or discover how to stop making them, keep reading this article.  I’m revealing 5 proven six pack abs diet tips you can use right now to get sexy six pack abs.

Here are your 5 dieting for abs tips:

1.Stay away from food items cleverly disguised as ‘healthy’ foods. Avoid foods packaged and sold as ‘low fat’, ‘lite’, ‘low fat’, ‘sugar free’ or ‘low carb’. These foods often use artificial sweeteners and high fructose corn syrup, which can lead to serious health problems. And they don’t help you lose belly fat … they actually make you fatter.

2. Cut out ’bad’ fats from your diet. Americans eat far too many foods that are loaded with ‘bad’ fats – saturated fats and trans fatty acids, which can lead to heart disease and high blood pressure. But don’t make the mistake of thinking all fats are ‘bad’.  Why? Because contrary to what you’ve been told, all fats are not your enemy! Your body needs ‘good’ fats, like unsaturated fats, to function properly and stay healthy.

3. Consume nutrient dense foods that help you burn more calories. Eat grapefruit, apples, lean pork, asparagus, broccoli, salmon, tuna and green tea. The more calories you burn up, the easier it will be to lose stubborn abdominal fat.

4. Work out 3 – 4 times a week. While most of your six pack abs diet success is the result of what you eat (it’s estimated that 90% of your results comes from what you eat and how), the remaining 10% comes from getting regular exercise. If you want to look good in or out of your clothes, you’ve got to consistently work out for at least 30 minutes 3 – 4 times a week.

5. Do high intensity interval training to build lean muscle to help burn more excess body fat. Based upon my experience, building lean muscle through high intensity resistance workouts (not cardio) is the best way to torch  body fat.  Building lean muscle not only gives you a much more sexier look, it also help your body burn more fat.

BONUS: Sit-ups are great for training your core, but doing 100′s of them won’t help you lose one ounce of abdominal fat! If you want visible six pack abs do this:  lower your percentage of body fat enough for your abs to become visible. The lower your percentage of body fat, the more visible your abdominal muscles will  be. This is why you HAVE TO combine regular high intensity interval training with your six pack abs diet program.

BUT I see a lot of people making some basic mistakes when it comes to working out. And these mistakes are causing them to not reach their abs fitness goals.

If you want to want to avoid these mistakes and get great abs, this article reveals 3 powerful  abs work out tips you really should know about before you begin your get toned abs exercise program.

Now let’s review these 3 powerful tips you can use (right now) in your lose ab fat work out program:

1. If you want to lose abdominal fat and get an amazing  set of visible six pack abs, the first thing you need is commitment.

Everyone says they want to look good in and out of their clothes, but FEW ARE WILLING to pay the price.  Until you make that commitment, you’re just hoping and wishing.  So make up your mind – right now. And once you cross that line, there’s no more excuses for not making the time to work out 3-4 times a week.  No more excuses for not pushing yourself when you exercise.

2.  After you make that commitment and set your goals, create a good fat burning exercise routine. Your plan should include traditional ab exercises to strengthen your core, fat burning whole body exercises to torch your fat and resistance training to develop lean muscle.

Don’t overtrain your abs by doing 100′s of crunches. Crunches won’t get you visible six pack abs - they will only strengthen them. You need to do exercises that work your entire body – not just your abs – to burn off excess body fat. 

To avoid the exercise mistakes that make me cringe,  add high intensity interval training to your get toned abs program.  High intensity interval training makes your muscles work harder by  constantly changing the intensity level of your exercises.  This keeps your muscles from getting used to your workouts while burning more body fat.

3.  No matter how good your abs work out program is, you need to change your diet.  This doesn’t mean you need to “go on a diet”.  What it does mean is that you need to change the way you look at food, change what you eat and even the way you eat – so you can reach your six pack abs goals.

Don’t pooh – pooh the diet component of your program. Your workout CAN’T make up for a poor diet.  Only 10% of your six pack abs results comes from exercising. The other 90% comes from what you eat and how you eat!

So discover how to diet for six pack abs, study/analyze food labels to help you make smarter food choices, stay away from processed foods and junk foods.  Eat high quality proteins, good fats, fiber rich foods and complex carbohydrates.

There’s much more to getting toned abs than what I’ve revealed in these 3 tips . BUT they’re what you really need to know about – especially if you’re starting out or if you’ve hit a road block – if you ever hope to develop a serious set of ripped six pack abs.

In The Truth About Six Pack Abs, Mike Geary reveals the exercises you should be doing if you really want to get  toned abs. And he gives you more than 60 body weight exercises to get great abs and how to make your workouts 2x as effective so you can lose abdominal fat & keep it off!

3. Get Toned Abs -The Secret to Getting Great Toned Abs You Can Love I hope this doesn’t come as a surprise to you, but doing lots of crunches or sit ups to get toned abs is an exercise in futility. It’s true! Let’s get this straight right now:...

You need to take extra care when reading food labels at the grocery store.  This is especially true of  foods being marketed to consumers as ’fat free’.

Most foods sold as ‘fat free’, ‘diet’ or ’low fat’ have very little – if any - nutritional value. If you aren’t careful … these foods can actually make your belly (not to mention the rest of your body) fatter.

The plain truth is these are the WORST foods you can eat when you’re trying to burn belly fat and get six pack abs.

Since it has been a while since I posted a new article, I’m going to reveal 4 of the worst of these so called ‘fat free’ foods you need to beware of.  I’m also going to give you some foods that will help you burn more calories.

Now here are 4 foods to AVOID of when you’re dieting for six pack abs:

1.  Diet soda.  No matter which brand you pick, they’re all BAD for you.  Here’s why: diet soda is loaded with the artificial sweetner aspartame, which can lead to (a) increased fat storage, weight gain and appetite – all no-no’s when dieting to get a six pack; and (b) a number of very serious health disorders, including seizures and brain tumors.

2.  Glaceau Vitamin Water.  It’s marketed as vitamin enriched water, but all the natural minerals have been stripped from this beverage in the process of making the drink.  And it’s loaded with sugars and artificial sweeteners – high fructose corn syrup & cane (read processed) sugar – that are linked to obesity, diseases of the liver and cancer.

3.  Yogurts labeled as fat free or low fat.  Be very careful with these types of yogurts. They can be low calorie or low fat, but the sugars are what make it bad for you if you’re dieting for six pack abs. Take Yoplait 99% fat free yogurt for example. It’s 170 calories and only 1.5 grams of fat, but it has 27 grams of sugars (the Thick & Creamy has 28 grams of sugar).

4.  Nutrition bars.  This includes weight loss bars, cereal bars and protein bars.  Not all of them are bad, but some are no better than junk food. If you see a laundry list of ingredients that include corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, hydrogenated oils and processed soy proteins, put it back and step away from the junk.

BONUS Tips:

Beware of foods containing: (a) a high fat calorie count; (b) artificial flavors; (c)  artificial sweeteners like high fructose corn syrup and aspartame; (d) trans fats; (e) artificial flavors; (f) a high sodium count; and (g) refined sugars.

Always weigh out the value of the good ingredients against the bad.

Ok now that you know what you should avoid, here are 4 foods you want to INCLUDE in your dieting for six pack abs program:

1.  Regular yogurt with fruit at the bottom.  Yes it has more calories than the ‘fat free’ and ‘low fat’ yogurts, but it’s loaded with vitamins, minerals and protein.

2.  Green tea.  This is one of my personal favorites. Why? Because it helps your body burn more calories.  Make sure you buy green tea from your local health food store or Korean grocery. Use honey to sweeten it to your liking.

3.  Cayenne and/or jalapeno peppers.  These hot, spicy peppers increase your heart rate, which in turn increases your metabolism. The bottomline: cayenne and jalapeno peppers help your body burn more calories.

4.  Lean pork.  The other white meat is loaded with protein.  The benefit for you in your dieting for six pack abs program is that your body works harder to digest proteins – this causes your body to burn more calories.

The tips revealed in this article can help you reach your get six pack abs goals IF you apply them.  If you want more dieting for six pack abs tips, you should definitely subscribe to Six Pack Abs Diet.

If you want to avoid these six pack dieting boo boos (and I don’t see why you wouldn’t), keep reading. In this article you’re going to discover 3 six pack abs mistakes you really want to avoid IF you’re serious about  getting six pack abs.

1.  Taking a “Go Strict or Go Home” Approach

The big mistake go strict or go home dieters make is attempting to be perfect dieters. When they can’t, they quit.

In the beginning they’re gung ho. They follow their six pack abs diet to the ‘T’.  And for awhile they do, but something happens that causes them to stray from the plan. They see themselves as having failed and return to eating the same foods they threw out when they began the diet for abs program!

Forget about perfection.  Be honest with yourself.  Plan, from the beginning of your fat burning diet, to eat an off-limits treat – no more than once or twice a week – as a reward for keeping your abs diet plan and workout schedule.

2.  Setting A Fat Loss Goal That Can’t Be Achieved

This is a HUGE mistake.  Setting a belly fat loss goal that’s too big to be achieved is a sure fire path that leads to throwing in the towel on your six pack abs diet and giving up.

Goals in general need to be clear and in writing.  To have success with a dieting for abs program, the goals you set must be realistic.  A goal to get rid of 10 pounds of fat in 5 weeks is far more realistic and achievable than a goal to lose 30 lbs. of  fat in 3 weeks.

We’ve seen certain reality shows where the contestants have achieved amazing results.  But that’s TV and in some cases, corners were cut to get those results.  Goals based on your reality are much more helpful to you getting washboard abs.

There are going to be weeks when you hit your target or exceed it and some where you won’t.  Just keep track of your weekly results and continue to following your diet for abs plan until you reach your goal. Then set new ones to help you maintain or improve your belly fat loss results.

3.  Looking At Changes In Diet As Only Temporary

Another BIG mistake you really want to avoid at ALL COSTS is looking at your diet as a temporary thing.  The danger is in falling back after reaching your goal(s) and putting back on all the fat you lost … or more.

You might have an excellent diet plan that’s proven to to torch excess fat. BUT if you view it as a short term thing … you HAVE NOT discovered how to make long term changes to what (and how) you eat to maintain the results.  That’s what happened to actress Kirstie Alley.
By her own admission, she didn’t learn how to make the permanent changes needed to keep looking great.  That’s why she put back on all the fat she worked so hard to lose (and then some)!

The key is to view your program as a lifestyle change.  Make new long term goals to keep your new body healthy and looking good in and out of your clothes.

Here are the most important things you can take away from this article: (a) be honest with yourself about what you’re doing in your six pack abs diet; (b) learn from your mistakes and change adjustments; and (c) keep moving toward your goal(s) — don’t give up. Make the commitment to STICK WITH THE PLAN until you get the results you want.
