The Best Way I Know To Lose Stubborn Belly Fat
Everyone wants to know how
to lose fat around their
abs, well, here's how I do
it...
The #1 question that is
asked on all fitness sites,
bodybuilding forums,
magazines and late night TV
infomercials sounds a lot
like these:
How to I lose the stubborn
belly fat? How do I lose
abdominal fat? How to do I
get great abs? How do I lose
the stomach pouch off the
lower abs?
These are all too common
question and they are so
popular that it's the reason
the weight reduction arena
is a multi- billion dollar
(yes billion) industry.
You are about to read the
real secret to great abs and
how to lose the abdominal
fat without spending money
on supplements or following
some diet-of-the-month and
it's going to be a very
simple formula that you can
follow. Remember...
Your abdominal muscle is
like the rest of the muscles
in your body. They require
training if you want them to
be larger and stronger. A
common mis-conception is
that you must train your abs
several times a week. This
will only lead to
overtraining. Your abs are a
muscle. Train it like
everything else. No need to
focus and go overboard. Two
to three times a week of
focused ab work or core
strength is generally the
rule for 6 pack abs.
An Easy 3-Step System
For Ripped Abdominals:
Step 1
Training: 1% of your
overall ab development will
actually come from training.
Consider the fact that most
people think 90% of your
results come from training,
you can see this isn't the
popular consensus. Needless
to say, that's where most
focus their efforts. They
don't get their nutrition in
order, they don't use cardio
effectively so the masses
just do more ab training and
more crunches. Ultimately
for your abs to show you
must have abs to show and a
low percentage of body fat
for them to appear. More
training does nothing to
eliminate the layer of fat
that is covering them. This
is commonly know as spot
reduction. Training an area
for the sole purpose of
eliminating fat in that
area.
Tip - Do not make training
the #1 priority to show off
those abs. Train them like
any other muscle. More ab
work will not make your abs
appear. Focus on lowering
your body fat levels and not
spot reduction.
Step 2:
Cardio: 9% of your effort
can be directed as using
cardio as a fat burning
tool. High intensity
interval training is by far
the fastest and most
efficient method you can use
to shed the pounds. You'll
want to keep in mind, using
cardio is a tool. Not a
foundation. This simply
means that doing marathon
sessions will not be to your
advantage. Learn to use
cardio effectively and you
can enhance and boost your
metabolism beyond what even
eating the right foods can
do. Some competitive
bodybuilders use cardio up
to twice a day for 30 days
to just chisel off that last
remaining layer of fat
that's cover up the
abdominal region.
Tip - Cardio can be done
twice a day for a full body
shock! Just keep in mind
this method is a short term
tool and not a routine you
would use for any length of
time.
Step 3:
Nutrition: 90% of your
efforts will be based upon
your diet. In order to show
off the abs, you must get
rid of the layer of fat that
is covering them up. It is
that simple. Many people
will train their abs and do
all kinds of cardio and they
still forget that nutrition
plays such a massive roll in
getting rid of belly fat.
You must know how many
calories a day you need to
eat and what to eat in order
to get your nutrition on
track and working for you.
Going to the gym more often,
doing more cardio and more
hanging crunches will do you
no good if you fail 90% of
the test.
Tip - Use nutritional
fundamentals to turn your
body into a fat burning
furnace.
Wait just a second...
Before you rush off to
check your nutrition, cardio
and training, take this next
concept into consideration.
Loose Skin: Skin is very
elastic and over time (age)
or with a large amount of
weight reduction it may not
just spring back like it
did. In this case, surgery
may be the only option once
you have reached a very low
level of overall body fat.
-Many women may experience
this because of pregnancy.
-Many men and women may
experience this because of a
large amount of weight
reduction.
For example, if a man was
under 10% body fat and had
loose skin, this is a prime
example where skin may need
to be taken away because of
other circumstances. While
this is pretty rare it does
happen and if the skin
cannot bounce back, there's
little options a person has
except to have it removed.
What this means is...
If you have a low enough
(12-15% or less body fat for
a woman in this example) and
you still have a lot of
loose skin from slimming
down or pregnancy, you may
want to explore the option
of having that excess skin
removed.
With that said...
The secret to ripped abs is
nothing more then 3-steps in
this order of importance:
-Nutrition
-Cardio
-Training
You see, all of the
programs you'll find will
adhere to these 3 concepts.
Once you have the abs, you
need to show them. In order
to show them, you will need
to get rid of the layer of
fat that is covering them
up. It's easy to lose the
belly fat when you know how.
