WHY ABS?

LET’S BE HONEST WE ALL STRIVE TO LOOK MORE AESTHETICALLY PLEASING, FEEL GOOD AND LOOK GOOD TO THE OPPOSITE SEX. WITH THAT SAID, ONE OF THE SINGLE MOST ALLURING PHYSICAL TRAITS ARE ABS. BUT HOW MANY ARE WILLING TO DO WHAT IT TAKES TO GET THEM?  I KNOW YOU ARE SAYING I’LL DO 1,000 SIT UPS A DAY, JUMP ROPE BECAUSE BOXERS HAVE ABS, STOP DRINKING AND OR BETTER YET I’LL TAKE SUPPLEMENTS. I HAVE ONE ANSWER TO ALL THOSE: HELL NO!!!!. YOU CAN’T CHEAT UNHEALTHY EATING HABITS. THE BIG SECRET IS EVERYONE HAS ABS. I KNOW COMPLETELY SHOCKING. THE ISSUE IS THE LAYERS OF FAT THAT ARE COVERING THOSE ABS. SO BEFORE YOU COMMIT TO A 30 DAY AB CHALLENGE, WEARING A SWEATBAND ALLDAY AND ARE DOING A JUICE DETOX. ASK YOURSELF WHAT AM I EATING? WHAT ARE MY PROBLEM FOODS AND OR DRINKS? HOW CAN I CUT BACK UNTIL I CAN COMPLETELY ELIMINATE THEM? 

ONCE THAT IS DONE, HERE IS WHERE THE REAL WORK STARTS. NOW WE ARE LOOKING AT HEALTHY EATING HABITS, AND THE BEST METHOD FOR STARTING THIS JOURNEY IS TO REMEMBER K.I.S.S (KEEP IT SIMPLE SILLY). HERE’S A BREAK  DOWN TO HELP YOU OUT:

PROTEIN 

MEATS ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE PALM OF YOUR HAND 3-5OZ; BEANS/LEGUMES THE SIZE SHOULD BE A CLOSED FIST OR ½ CUP. 

CARBOHYDRATES 

(YES CARBS AREN’T BAD, THEY ACTUALLY BREAK DOWN TO SOURCES OF ENERGY) GRAINS/ STARCHY CARBS SHOULD BE THE SIZE OF A CUPPED HAND OR ¾-1 CUP; FRESH FRUIT THE SIZE OF A CLOSED FISTS OR ABOUT ½ CUP-1CUP. 

HEALTHY FATS 

OILS NO MORE THAN 1 TABLESPOON (NO DROWNING THE PAN)

NUTS/SEEDS/COCONUT 10-12 NUTS OR ABOUT ¼ CUP

NUT BUTTERS NO MORE THAN 1-2 TABLESPOONS

AVOCADO (YES A GREAT HEALTHY FAT BUT PLEASE MODERATION) ONE HALF OF A MEDIUM SIZE IS ALL NEED.

NOW HERE’S WHAT YOU ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE ACTUAL WORK OUT BECAUSE MOST WON’T WANT TO CHANGE EATING HABITS UNTIL THEY NOTICE NO RESULTS. BUT HERE IS THE KEY BROKEN DOWN 3 STEPS.

FASTED CARDIO 

FASTED CARDIO IS EFFECTIVE BECAUSE YOU ARE BURNING ON YOUR BODIES FAT STORAGE. MOST BENEFICIAL FIRST THING IN THE MORNING AND IT SPIKES YOUR METABOLISM TO BURN ALL DAY

H.I.I.T 

HIGH INTENSE INTERVAL TRAINING IS CREATING THE HIGHEST BURN POSSIBLE IN THE SHORTEST AMOUNT OF TIME. IT’S FORCING YOU BODY TO USE THE MOST MAXIMUM EFFORT POSSIBLE. H.I.I.T CAN LAST FROM 10-45 MINS.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST…...

WEIGHT TRAINING

WEIGHT TRAINING IS EFFECTIVE BECAUSE IT STIMULATES MUSCLE GROWTH. THE MORE MUSCLE YOU HAVE THE MORE YOU BURN BECAUSE BUILDING INCREASES YOUR REST METABOLISM WHICH BASICALLY MEANS THE AMOUNT OF CALORIES YOU BURN AS YOU REST. LET'S BE REAL WE ALL NEED THAT!!

SO TAKE THESE  TIPS INTO CONSIDERATION AND APPLY THEM. 

AGAIN, THE ABS ARE THERE IT’S UP TO YOU TO REVEAL THEM!
