Why you do not have "killer abs" or that "6 pack" Abdominal
Muscles?
Ask any woman what is the most attractive part of a male body
and most of the time, they will tell you it's the six pack abs
meaning that your abdominal muscles showing up with beautiful
definition. The abs is considered by many as a sexy muscle and
is a symbol of a fit and healthy man. Women are instinctively
drawn towards a man brimming with health and fitness because it
is a primitive indication that the man is strong enough to
protect her and her brood. A rippling six pack abs is one such
indication. So is it any wonder that in every gym, you will see
men of all ages doing crunches, leg raisers and sit ups
religiously in the hope of obtaining the much coveted killer
abs? Unfortunately, most men will never get to see their
abdominal muscle in its glorious splendor. Why? The following
fitness tip will show you why.
You may not like what I am going to give to you straight in the
face here. But I will give it to you anyway. So here it goes.
Listen up carefully. You may do a zillion crunches a day, then
another another million leg raisers , but as long as there is a
layer of fat covering your tummy, you will never see your abs
because it is covered by the blubber of fat. In fact, your
waistline will become bigger because you are adding muscles
underneath the fats! So instead of having a slim waistline and
showing off your abs, you will have a bigger waistline and
thicker love handles. Now get this straight. There is no such
thing as spot reduction! Once the fats are off, your abs will
show. That I promise you. It is just that simple to display your
abs. Lose fats! That's all.
Late night TV commercials or magazines has been telling you that
you can have well defined abs by using this gadget or that
electronic gizmo. Do you really believe that it is that simple?
If it is so, then everyone will have that six pack abs in no
time, won't they? Then why isn't that so? Because it doesn't
work that way.
To lose fat effectively and permanently for your abdominal
muscles to show, you must include a mildly deficit calorie
restriction diet, frequent cardio workouts and strength training
with weights to build muscle so as to raise your metabolism in
order to lose weight and burn fat naturally. Your weight loss
goals will not be achieved effectively or permanently when any
one of the three elements is done wrongly or not even
incorporated in your slimming program. I repeat the three
elements again :-
a) A mildly caloric deficit diet - A mildly caloric deficit diet
to help you lose weight.
b) Frequent cardio workouts - Frequent cardio workout to
exercise your heart and lungs and burn fat at the same time.
c) Weight Lifting to build muscles - Build muscles to burn fat
permanently as muscles use up more calories from your food for
energy. Lifting weights will also give you a well toned body and
help your abs to show.
Forget about any fad diets or popping slimming pills . These may
work initially but in the long run, they are bound to fail.
