Easy Ab Tips


Have you ever seen people with rock hard, six pack abs and wish that you have one like that? There are people who would like to have a great body without spending too much time in the gym. With the fast paced kind of lifestyle that most people have, would there be easy ways to get the body that you want? 10-Minute Trainer and the Power Half Hour are options many of my friends have picked up. 

Actually, there are some easy and simple tips that would help you get the six pack stomach that you want. Avoid eating while watching the television. Since your mind and focus will be on the movie and television show that you are watching, you would not be able to watch the amount of food that you are eating. You may tend to overeat while watching television.

Besides, when you can have Tony Horton on your TV, why have anything else?

Do not skip breakfast. It is the most important meal of the day. Upon waking up, the metabolism is accelerated and fat starts to burn. You would need enough food to cope to cope up with the day. Calories would burn while you perform your daily tasks. By avoiding a meal, you tend to overeat the next meal. Since you would feel that need to make up for the lost fat. The morning is also a splendid opportunity for my fitness monsters to throw in a quick 10-Minute Trainer exercise after a Shakeology breakfast.

Incorporate good eating habits to your daily routine. Aside from making sure you eat regularly and not in front of the television, you need to make sure that good fats are incorporated to your diet. Some people shudder in the word fats, well, there are fats that are good for your. Fish oil, flaxseed oil, extra virgin olive oil are the healthy fats.

Water is good for you. The more water you drink, the better. You don’t have to stick just drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water when you can drink more. But we are required to drink that much water everyday to keep hydrated. This would regulate fat burning and body metabolic process. This is the mantra of the truly focused athlete. 

If drinking milk, then choose skim milk. There are healthier and tastier alternatives, all you need to do is make sure that whenever you go to the store to buy groceries, you choose the healthier alternative. I personally prefer almond milk (Silk brand). Think about it this way: Cow's milk is specifically designed by genetics for what? Fattening baby calves.

Diet is incomplete if you don’t put some mobility into your routine. So still incorporate exercise routine into your lives. Doing a hundreds of sit-ups a day is not good enough. Think about your whole body and not only about your abdomen. When aiming for six pack abs, cardiovascular exercises are a must. This kind of exercise increase stamina and heart condition, it burns fat in a quick way. Cardiovascular exercises can be done 5 minutes a day, and can increase it to 45 minutes. Aside from cardiovascular exercises you can also do some weight training to get the body that you want. Every movement the body does is tied by the core. Fire your Core! 10-Minute Trainer blends these ideas perfectly.

Not all exercises can be done inside the gym nor should they be kept to your living room; take your exercise outside. Take a walk, stand straight in a cocktail party, you can even do some exercises during your break time while you are sitting down on your chair. 

Aside from proper diet and exercise, getting the minimum seven to eight hours of sleep every night is very important. Sleeping rejuvenates your body. It repairs muscular system by decreasing the stress hormone levels. 

And last, you need to be consistent. You may plan or devise your own exercise regimen, but getting your six pack abs just does not stay there. You must be consistent with the plan or regimen you devised. That is why diet or exercise do not work, because we lack consistency in doing things. Six pack abs are easy, as long as you put yourself into it.



Strive for more. Do your best forget the rest. In the time it took you to do this, you could have done one of the powerful and economic workouts in the 10-Minute Trainer videos.
