5 Secrets To A Flat Stomach

by Ryan M Hall Fat Loss Expert and Author of The 20/20/20 Diet

Every fat loss website in the world has a tip to lose belly fat, some of them work, most of them don’t, many of them are just plain old snake oil scams. Because I get emails about this on an almost daily basis, here are 5 secrets to a flat stomach that do work, that are scientifically designed to burn belly fat and get you a flat stomach or the six pack abs you crave.

Ab Exercises Alone Won’t Cut It

Most people who want to shrink their tummy start by doing a bunch of abs exercises, but after a week or so, they soon quit because they just don’t get results. This is because ab exercises don’t create enough metabolic change in your body to effectively burn belly fat. If you want to get rid of your stomach flab, you have to focus on exercises that will have your whole body shedding weight day and night. This isn’t to say core strengthening isn’t important. It is extremely important, and should not be ignored, but core exercises alone won’t get you the midsection you want.

Resistance Exercise

The absolute fastest way to start losing weight is to do full body resistance exercises. Exercises like rows, mountain climbers, squats, lunges, pushups or bench press, and overhead press are all great exercises that build or tone muscle and burn huge amounts of calories.

These exercises don’t burn the calories in the gym though. If you do them right, these kinds of work outs will burn more calories when you’re outside the gym, than when you’re actually putting for the effort to move the machine or lift the weight.

Perform total body resistance training at least 2 times a week.

Cardio

I’ll be honest, I don’t like cardio. I prefer to get in the gym and back out again quickly, and cardio just takes too much time…unless it’s done right. If you want to get a flat tummy fast, you have to have some cardio, so your best bet is very intense exercise for a short period of time.

Here is what you can do:

Get on a bike, treadmill, track, or lap swim pool, and go for 20-45 seconds very intensely, try to move as fast and hard as you can, then stop. Take a short rest equal or less than the time you exerted, and then begin again. Do this same thing 8-15 times and then finish for the day. It only takes a few minutes, but it works wonders for shaping your body in a short period of time.

Diet

If you ignore your diet, then you can expect to fail. You have to eat a healthy diet to have the body of your dreams. Eat raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and low fat dairy for snacks and eat a lean meat and vegetable at every meal. The meat and vegetable should be your main course. If pasta or bread is the mainstay of your diet, it may be harder to get the results you crave.

One last note on dieting, don’t drink your calories! Don’t drink soda, don’t drink juice, put down the energy drink already! This is the first thing you should do when trying to start a healthy diet plan.

Get a Plan From a Professional

If you really want to get results fast, your best bet is to get accountable, and get a plan from a pro. A good diet plan with proven exercise principles and a coach that is invested in your success is the best way to succeed in changing to a healthy lifestyle. Studies have proven that having a plan, and a coach will get you results hundreds of times faster than just trying alone.

These 5 secrets to a flat stomach are proven and actually work. There is no scam here, no magic pill, just proven principles. If you want to succeed, you can by following these 5 rules.

What is The Purpose of Electrolytes?

I was reminded today that many people buy sports drinks like Gatorade and Powerade because of the Electrolytes, but most people don’t know what the heck that is. So here’s the low down on what Electrolytes are and what is the purpose of electrolytes.

Very simply, Electrolytes are….(drum roll please) SALT!

That’s right, sports drinks are just flavored salt water. Yes, they taste good, but that is what it boils down to. So why do we drink this after and during exercise?

When you sweat during a workout, especially an intense workout, your body loses electrolytes through your sweat. If you lose too many through sweat and urine in a short period of time, you can die. This is rarely the case for your average gym goer though.

Generally, the only time you would have to worry about extreme dehydration and electrolyte deprivation is if you were exercising intensely, non stop for 3-4 hours or more. So if you’re training for a marathon, then you definitely need some of these tasty, and necessary salts.

That being said, it’s not going to hurt you to have a sports drink after your normal workout, after all, you will be slightly dehydrated, and your body will be craving it.

A side note: vomiting and diarrhea can also lead to dehydration and a need for more electrolytes in the body.

Hope this helps you understand what is the purpose of electrolytes.

Get a Personal Trainer or Training Partner For Faster Weight Loss

A new study was conducted to see if personal trainers improve the results for clients hoping to lose weight.

The study found that people who were observed by a trainer or training partner during exercise lost 362% more fat than a group of people who were not observed by a trainer or training partner.

This isn’t a new idea, and it’s certainly not surprising. We all tend to do better when somebody is standing there pushing us to do better. It’s social support. we try to improve to match what is expected of us. We do this at work, at home and pretty much every where else, so it makes sense that losing weight is no different.

So what does that mean? It means that you will have a much better chance of losing weight if you work with a trainer or training partner.

Other studies have shown that groups of people working with trainers exercise 20-30% harder when they are watched by a trainer.

Mind you, the trainer doesn’t have to be Jillian Michaels Screaming in your face, it just needs to be a supportive person who will push you to do more. That is the real secret to the biggest loser.

Get a trainer or training partner to get better and faster weight loss results.

You Don’t Need Bridal Boot Camp For Wedding Weight Loss

admin — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 03:47:58 +0000

Looking your best on your wedding day is one of the biggest concerns any bride has as the big day approaches. So most women panic and search for fad diets and crash exercise programs, but you don’t need a Bridal Boot Camp for Wedding Weight Loss. You can use the simple advice in this article to lose weight for your wedding and be the glowing bride you picture yourself to be.

Time

If you can, it’s best to give yourself plenty of time to work on your wedding weight loss. After all, it’s easier to hit your target weight a month early and maintain than to crash diet for weeks in hopes that you’ll make your goal. With that said, it’s best to give yourself 5-6 months of time to get into wedding day shape. You don’t need a bridal boot camp if you give yourself plenty of time and follow solid, proven fat loss principles to slim down and get the figure you want to see in your pictures. If you already have less than 6 months until the big day, don’t panic, and for your own sake, don’t grab the first fad juice detox diet or acai berry weight loss scam you can in the hopes that you’ll be a fitness model by the time you stand up on the alter. Just relax, because you can still have healthy weight loss even if you’re on a time crunch.

Exercise

Here is the part most of my clients dread when I say it, you have to workout. You don’t need some intense, 2 hour a day, bridal boot camp, but if you want to lose weight fast and healthy, you have to exercise. Now, many people think that just taking a short walk will cut it. That’s just not going to get you the results you want to see. It will help, and any extra activity is good, but a walk now and then isn’t going to be your magic solution to fast wedding weight loss. Here are a few tips for the best exercises:

Exercise Tips

Join a Gym: It’s best if you can use resistance exercises with dumbbells and cable machines in the gym to tone up your body and get fit for your wedding. But if you’re just not able or willing to join a gym just yet, go out and get a set of adjustable, or at least 20 lb dumbbells so that you can get your muscles burning a few times a week. With these dumbbells, you will be able to do a lot of exercises in the comfort of your own home. Now the trick is to actually do it without skipping a workout.

Use intensity: don’t just do a few reps and call it quits. Don’t do 5 squats and walk away without a sweat. Keep the workout intense. You need to be sweating and breathing heavy now so that you’re not sweating and breathing heavy when walk down the aisle. Do some push ups, jumping jacks, and dumbbell squats and do them until it burns, then do a few more. Toning your body isn’t always fun, but it is always worth it.

Use Resistance: Cardio is good for weight loss, but it’s not the end all be all of losing fat. In fact, resistance exercise and toning your muscles will serve you much better for fast fat loss as well as a higher metabolism. Do some resistance exercise at least 2-3 times a week.

Diet

When it comes to dieting for your wedding, there are a few simple steps you can take that will make a very big difference in the way your dress fits.

First of all, get rid of soda, juice, energy drinks and all those sugary drinks that taste so good, but fill you up with sugar. They are going straight to your waste and they are going to stop your wedding weight loss if you’re not careful. Can the soda and start drinking water, tea, and some coffee without sugar.

Eat 5-6 little meals a day. You may have heard it before, but here it is again. If you want to speed up your metabolism to burn fat for your wedding, you should eat small healthy meals 5-6 times a day. This will make an instant impact on the way you look and feel.

Cut out the bad carbs. Since we don’t have the space for a full explanation of good vs bad carbs, here’s a quick rundown of what you should ditch if you’re looking for bridal weight loss. Foods like pancakes, waffles, french toast, those breakfast sandwiches, bagels and even normal sandwich bread will stand in the way of your goals. Most pasta will as well. In fact, you should aim to get your carbs from vegetables, with smaller servings of rice and pasta on the side.

Don’t eat fried food. Yes it’s common sense, but I hear people every day fooling themselves into thinking that chicken strips are healthy. They’re fried and full of bad fats and fast carbs. If you want to look your best on your big day, get rid of french fries, fried chicken (even in sandwiches), and any other fried food that tastes so good.

Finally, drink more water. Drink a glass of water before and after every meal. It will aid in digestion and trick your body into feeling full.

As you can see, you don’t need a bridal boot camp for wedding weight loss. You can do it the healthy and natural way if you just follow the simple steps outlined in this article.

Luckily, nobody was hurt, but this is just one of those things that makes you chuckle. Obviously, this isn’t going to look good for the local business, and is probably very embarrassing.
