Before I start I want to clear up a common myth. We all have six pack abs right now. Problem is the majority of us can’t see them because they are covered by a layer of fat. This is why doing endless ab exercises don’t work. You will never see your abs until you lose all of your belly fat which is covering them up. Hence, this article will show you how to lose fat and reveal your ripped abs.

I know it sounds outrageous to recommend eating junk food to get ripped abs, so let me clarify. I don’t recommend eating nothing but junk food. That is obviously unhealthy. However, if you want to lose belly fat and get ripped abs you should eat junk food whenever you want.

4 reasons why…

1. HELPS KEEP OUR CRAVINGS IN CHECK

By allowing yourself to eat whatever you want, you are no longer depriving yourself of having anything. This goes a long way in keeping your cravings under control. Let’s face it, the reason why so many of us fail, is because our cravings become unbearable. Usually these cravings are for the foods that we are depriving ourselves from having.

So the key here is, to not deprive yourself of anything. Doing so only encourages your cravings to intensify, to the point that sooner or later, you will succumb to the pressure.

2. IT IS MUCH EASIER AND IT WORKS

The absolute bottom line to successfully losing your belly fat is to simply eat less food than you burn off. Pretty obvious I know, but it’s true. Forget the thinking that a certain food is making you fat, because it doesn’t. Too much food makes you fat!

A calorie is a calorie. There is no difference between a calorie from a carrot, and a calorie from a donut. It is all a form of energy that can be burnt off, or stored as fat if not used. Knowing this, wouldn’t it make sense to eat foods you enjoy? Wouldn’t this make losing fat a hell of a lot easier?

Let me ask you this. Why do you think people lose fat on all different kinds of diets? Because the one thing all these diets have in common is that there total calorie intake is usually less than we need a day. That’s all there is to it. However, the author pinpoints the success of his program down to his very own, special and unique manipulation of protein, carbs or fats, or avoiding this food, and only eating these foods.

So just remember, as long as you eat less calories than you burn off a day, you will lose belly fat and eventually will be sporting your very own ripped abs.

3. EAT HEALTHIER

Believe it or not, but allowing yourself to eat junk food can actually help you eat healthier. This is because it reduces our cravings for junk food. This will result in less binges on junk and may even reduce the amount of junk you actually eat!

I know from personal experience that I eat less junk now then when I was following those strict diets. Eating super strict for a few weeks created such unbearable cravings that I was always bingeing on junk food.

Now that I can eat whatever I want, my emotions are a lot more intact. If I crave something, I have it, but I don’t feel the urge to eat massive quantities of it to make up for weeks of deprivation. I also enjoy eating healthier now, but if I crave a piece of chocolate, you better believe I’ll have apiece. (If not, a week from now I might explode and eat 10 pieces!)

4. CONSISTENCY

You will never lose your excess belly fat and get ripped abs if you lack consistency. You need to able to stick to a program long enough to lose the amount of fat necessary to see your abs. The general rule of thumb is to lose 1-2 pounds of fat a week. Therefore if you need to lose 20 pounds, you want to be consistent for 10-20 weeks.

This is the reason why I recommend eating whatever you want. It will make it a lot more enjoyable, and a lot easier to maintain the consistency required. And contrary to what others may think, it does work. Isn’t it obvious, eat less food than you need and you will lose fat. Simple huh?

This is the problem that most people have about losing stomach fat and getting that flat stomach. They are doing the wrong exercises to accomplish their goal. To really lose that belly fat you need to concentrate on a full body stategic workout that will increase your metabolic rate and fat burning hormonal response.

A cardio workout alone will not necassarily accomplish your goal of increased metabolic rate and fat burning hormonal response. You should have a workout program that focuses on working your whole body with resistance training and multi-joint exercises with high intensity.

Now combine this full body high intensity workout with a healthy diet and you are on your way to a flat sexy stomach. This is a plan that will work so you can stop doing your crunches, leg raisies and other abdonimal exercises to try and lose your belly fat.

Now you should still do ab exercises so you can tone and strengthen your ab muscles. By having a strong core you can achieve other fitness goals like a healthy back and good posture. But by doing these exercises only, you will not burn any fat off your stomach.

Another perk of the full body workout is that most of the exercises are indirectly working on the abs and your core due to the stabilization required in some of the exercises.

Remember to combine your full body workout with a healthy and balanced diet and you will start to see the belly fat go away.

Consult a professional trainer to get a good full body workout and show you how to do each exercise correctly.

You want some abs, right?

You want to lose stomach fat and get a firm, flat stomach…maybe even with a little definition…maybe even a six-pack.

Who doesn’t? I know I do. That’s why I work so hard to get and maintain my physique.

It was tough, but it’s not impossible. I’m sick of hearing people say they don’t have the genetics to lose stomach fat and get a firm, flat stomach, let alone get six-pack abs.

That’s a bunch of crap! If you’re reading this, you can lose stomach fat. As a matter of fact, you can lose as much stomach fat as you want and even get that six-pack.

You just need to do things differently than you are right now.

First, if you’re not doing anything…do something. Sounds stupid, but you’d be surprised how often I need to tell people that.

Second, you need to stop doing crunches, sit-ups, twists, leg lifts, etc. Doing hundreds and thousands of those exercises every week will not help you lose stomach fat, let alone get a flat, firm stomach and they especially won’t help you get a six-pack. Not when you have a layer of flabby goo sitting on your waist line.

You need to burn the fat off your stomach and to do that you need to eat right and you need to do fat burning full body workouts.

Here’s an example of a fat loss workout I just gave to a client that was specifically designed to help him lose stomach fat and get six-pack abs.

Perform this workout as a circuit and do as many circuits as you can in 15 minutes. Do this circuit before your regular workout when you’re still fresh 2-3 times per week for the next 4 weeks.

1A) Dumbbell Split Squat – 10 reps per side

1B) “T” Push-up – 10 reps

1C) Overhead Squat – 10 reps

1D) Cross Body Mountain Climber – 30 seconds

1E) Push-up w/Dumbbell Row – 8 per arm

That workout will work your entire body, and each exercise is designed to put extra emphasis on your abs. If you do it right, you will feel it in your abs and you will lose stomach fat.

As far as fat loss nutrition and fat loss cardio go, here’s the easiest things I can tell you. When it comes to nutrition, you’ve got to eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, no juices sorry, limit any food that comes in a bag or box and cut your dinner portions by about 25%.

For cardio, stick with interval training rather than boring steady state cardio that lasts for hours upon hours on end. Interval training is proven to burn more stomach fat than steady state cardio and has helped virtually everyone I’ve ever trained lose stomach fat fast.

Now that you are armed with that fast six-pack abs workout designed to help you lose stomach fat, plus you’ve got a little more advice when it comes to fat loss nutrition and fat loss cardio…get to it!

Do the workout and eat more fruits and veggies and you will see dramatic results in terms of stomach fat. You will have a firm, flat stomach and who knows you may even get that six-pack.

Tip No. 1: Posture Improvement

Poor posture is a common problem with many people. When you slouch it makes your stomach look bigger. Correct posture ought to be as follows. Your ears should be aligned over your shoulders; shoulders should be aligned over hips, hips over the knees, and knees over the ankles when you want to walk properly. The result is that you actually look slimmer without even going to the gym. In actuality because you improve your posture you also improve your ability to breath and this leads to increased energy.

Tip No. 2: Pilates

Pilates is recommended as an intelligent way of using the abdominals as well as arms, legs, and back muscles. It focuses on developing the rectus abdominis by which we mean the top abdominal muscle layer. It also pays attention to the internal as well as the external obliques. Altogether, this is considered as slow, high quality exercise that ensures strength and flexibility as well.

Plank: Let your hands and knees work to create what is called a push-up plank position. You are basically doing a balancing act. Put your wrists under your shoulders while you ensure that your back remains straight. Your abs should remain tight. Try to hold this position for a while then exhale.

Leg Lowers: Let the upper body be curled, your chest over ribs. Your hands should be behind your head. Lift the legs up with knees bent at 90 degrees. Keep your hips down as you gradually lower the legs toward the floor. Don’t change the bend in the knees, but simply lift them back up naturally.

Seated Rotations: Sit up, bend your knees and legs together. Your arms should be placced across your chest and tuck your tailbone. Then roll back a little as you rotate the spine right and left.

Tip No. 3: Diet and Digestion

Eat less and move more, should be your motivating mantra. You should strive to burn off more calories than you take in. That is what really helps to reduce body fat.

No matter how many ab exercises you do, if you arent able to control your diet properly, there will always be an extra fat layer around the area of your abdominals. So don’t binge, gorge or be lax with your diet. Be in control and don’t over eat. This way you lose abdominal fat abs training to lose belly fat.
