3 tips for ripped abs !!!

What we need to know to achieve the desired abdominal definition. In today’s world we are offered various “easy” and “fast” systems which promise to turn you from a person with flabby stomach to one with a 8-pack
abs – THEY ARE LYING ! If it was that easy to just buy some pills, or buy one of those notorious vibrating belts, all people would have had ripped and defined abs, right ? I’m going to tell you three things you can do to achieve ripped abs.

 1 – Reduce the food 
To shed body fat, you have to burn more calories than you consume. Don’t forget though, your body requires calories to go through its daily vital processes. You should NEVER restrict calories too drastically, because this leads to slower metabolism, and will interfere with your goals. Besides that, the extreme calorie restriction may lead to loss of muscle mass due to the lack of energy resources. Your body metabolizes body fat for energy, once the fat is depleted, the body searches for other energy sources and may start to catabolise muscle tissue.

2 – Eat smaller meals, often 
eat every three hours. Eat slow digesting carbs, proteins and fats (which have to be in small amounts). You have to eat at least 4-6 times a day. Eating smaller meals every 3 hours is going to activate your metabolism even more, and this is something we want to achieve. Resistance training also greatly effects metabolism, so don’t skip workouts.

3 – Cardiovascular training 
Cardio is a must, if you want ripped abs. It reduces your body fat percentage, promotes cardiovascular health, improves blood circulation, reduces stress, effects you muscle tone and overall conditioning. Like all exercise, cardio leads to endorphin secretion- the body’s hormone of happiness. Feel free to comment and ask me questions under the article.
