How to get 6 Pack Abs The Easy Way - By: Martin O Flynn

Would you like an easier way to getting six pack abs that doing 100 press ups every day?

The following 6 tips will help you get the 6 pack abs you always wanted;

Tip #1: Do not skip breakfast. It is the most important meal of the day. When you awake your metabolism is accelerated and fat starts to burn.

Avoid 'high sugar' content cereals targeted at kids, and instead eat either a bowl of porridge or a high fiber based cereal. These are very low in fat, and give you a feeling of being 'full', making you less likely to snack on sweet treats during the day.

Calories will burn while you perform your daily tasks. By avoiding breakfast you will snack on sugar based treats during the day. These are very high in calories. Always kick start your day with a bowl of high fiber cereal.

Tip #2: Incorporate good eating habits into your daily routine. Aside from eating a healthy high fiber breakfast, you need to make sure that good fats are incorporated in to your diet. Some people shudder on hearing the word fats, well, there are fats that are good for you. Fish oil, flaxseed oil, and extra virgin olive oil are the healthy fats necessary for vital body functions and thus as part of a balanced diet.

Alcohol is arguably the single greatest reason why most individuals will never have a 6 pack. A pint measure of stout alone contains over 240 calories. If you must drink alcohol then drink the purer variant. Drinking a Vodka and Diet Coke will only amount to 60 calories. That is 400% less calories than stout, for every drink you take.

If you can't resist reaching for the packet of biscuits, then eat one low calorie digestive biscuit instead your usual 3/4 with every cup of tea. Make the one biscuit last for the full cup of tea. If you usually have 3 biscuits every day with your cup of tea that is 1,095 biscuits a year or 65,700 calories. If you reduce this to one low fat biscuit a day that is 9,125 calories. That is a significant ‘calorie’ busting move.

Tip #3: Drink 2 litres of Water every day. The more water you drink, the better. You don’t have to stick with 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 processes.

If drinking milk, then choose skimmed milk. There are healthier alternatives; all you need to do is make sure that whenever you go to the store to buy groceries, you choose the healthier alternative.

Tip #4: Diet is incomplete if you don’t put some mobility into your routine. So incorporate an exercise routine into your life. It is inadequate to focus totally on doing hundreds of sit ups a day.

You need to look beyond just the abdomen and focus on full body conditioning. When aiming for six pack abs, cardiovascular exercises are a must. This will accelerate your bodies metabolism and start burning the fat from your abdomen.

You need to do approx. 20 minutes cardio exercise every day. Aside from cardiovascular exercises you can also do some weight training to get the body that you want.

You can do cardiovascular exercise by making small changes in your daily routine. Instead of taking the lift, take the stairs. Walk to work if you can. If you get the bus or a cab, get off a stop or two sooner and walk the rest of the distance.

Too many people focus on sit-ups when trying to get a 6 pack. What they don’t realize is that they may very well already have ‘rock hard’ 6 pack abs, but they are hidden beneath a layer of fat. So dedicate 85% of your time on ‘fat burning’ activities such as; treadmill, stepper, rowing machine, and bar bell exercises. This will accelerate the fat burn and help to reveal those 6-pack abs.

Not all exercises can be done inside the gym, take your exercise outside. Take a walk, flex you tummy muscles at a cocktail party, you can even do some exercises during your break time while you are sitting down on your chair.

When driving in your car suck in your tummy as much as possible and hold for a count of 10 before releasing. Repeat as often as desired, until your tummy muscles tire.

Tip #5: Get Adequate Sleep. 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 your muscular system by decreasing the stress hormone levels. If you go to bed after a gym work out, your body is still burning calories as it works to repair the muscles exercised in the gym.

Tip #6: Develop a consistent regime. You may plan or devise your own exercise regime, but getting your six pack abs just does not stay there. You must be consistent with the plan or regime you devised.

So to summarize; Develop a routine such as Gym every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 7am – 8.30am. First 60 minutes cardio, last 30 minutes weights. Stick to this and make it a set routine.

Eat a healthy high fiber breakfast, proper well balanced meals and avoid snacking on sugar treats. Avoid too much alcohol electing for spirits over stout or beer and get 8 hours sleep every night.
