Six pack abs seem to be the holy grail of fitness. A fitness magazine would not be a fitness magazine if it was not showing a model with a six pack on the front cover. Six pack abs are very attractive, it is no wonder why everyone wants them. In order to get ripped abdominals however, you must be disciplined in 2 areas of your life, what you eat and what you do with your workouts. Exercise and nutrition are important factors in the six pack equation.
EXERCISE
Weight lifting and interval training are what will help you shed fat and burn fat while you sleep. Weight lifting is often overlooked and not considered as important as cardio, but weight lifting is probably the most important factor. For example, if you and your friend went to the movies and while at the movies you decided to eat a candy bar, who would burn more calories? Well, if your friend is a frequent weight lifter then he is burning off that candy bar a lot faster than you. Always remember that muscle burns fat. The more lean muscle you have the more fat you will burn by just standing still.
Interval training is also important. Interval training is a type of cardio exercise. What you do is, run at a fast pace for 30 seconds and jog at a slow for one minute to a minute and a half. This equals to one interval. For a complete interval sessions you would need to do at least six intervals and this is usually more than enough.
NUTRITION
Nutrition is also important because it will give your body the required energy to complete your workouts. Eating the right foods at the right time is extremely important is you want to lose your belly fat. Sticking with whole grain, lean proteins, fruits, and vegetables will allow you to get a six pack in as little as 90 days.
