by admin on July 26, 2010

what is the quickest and best way to get a ripped midsection by the end of June? is it possible? I go to the gym at least 4 times a week and I work out a different muscle group along with 15-20 of abs every day.

For the "washboard" look, shoot for # of reps. At least 100. I do abs every other day for 10 to 12 mins. straight. I’ll do crunches (upper abs) til failure, immediately followed by frog kicks (lower abs) til failure, then go right to side crunches(obliques) on each side til failre, then back to regular crunches. This gives the ab muscles the ripped look that you’re looking for.
On the diet, shoot for lower carbs…about 180 to 250 grams a day. Every 10th day have a "cheat" day, where you eat a normal (about 350 to 400 grams) amount of carbs. Decrease your fat intake to about 50 grams daily, none of it trans fat. As for protein, with the amount of gym time you do, have at least your bodyweight x 1.5 to arrive at how many grams of protein you need. If you do need or want to overeat on any given day, try to stick to eating high protein foods, not carbs.
Also, add some cardio, at least 4 or 5 times a week for 1 hour, to your workouts. This will increase your metabolism and burn more fat.
This should lower your bodyfat level and sitrate you ab muscles.

A DIET IS WHAT YOU EAT….there for we are all on a diet….
THINK LIFESTYLE CHANGE

You got the change the way you think and feel about food

TRY THIS, and stick to it.

The first 3-4 weeks are the hardest until your body adjusts to the change.
Results will be in about the same time

Fruits and Veggies

Eat more plants and keep away from stuff that was made in plants.

Don’t eat anything that comes in a can, box or package….
…..THEY HAVE ADDITIVES IN THEM THAT MAKE YOU ADDICTED TO THE FOOD…..
If man made it, don’t eat it

NO white BREAD or SUGAR

NO PIZZA, I am in the pizza business, and it is not good for you, very high in FAT and Calories

NO FRIED FOOD…

Stay away from FAST FOOD

NO POP, SODA or FIZZY DRINKS

Walk your dog, or walk a friends dog

Don’t think of it as a diet, but think of it as a lifestyle change

I have lost 28.5 pounds in 3 months, drink lots of water. I usually eat a meal of what ever I want once a week….controlled portion….this really works………

Write down every thing you eat

take a multivitamin at night

To have ripped abs, you have to have a very low body fat %, like under 12% i believe. So that means running or another form of cardio 45 mins 5 times a week. Also go here, the top 10 ab exercises to get a 6 pack. http://exercise.about.com/od/abs/ss/abexercises.htm

So eat about 1600 calories of healthy foods, stay awy from salty and sugary foods, and never give up man. good luck
