Looking for a good stomach workout? Want to burn up the fat in your midsection? You would be surprised to hear that workouts like sit ups and running long distances do work they are not as effective as you might think and don’t usually reveal the results we are looking for.
This is because, to burn up every pound of fat in your belly you need to burn 3,500 calories. Let’s say you are only 5 pound over weight, you would have to burn 17,500 calories to see your abdomen. The average person burns 2,000 calories a day so it would take a little under 9 days to burn the 5 pound off to see your abs. Oh, I forgot, that’s if you’re not eating. The average person takes in 2,000 calories a day so to lose those pounds is going to be a little more difficult, even more difficult if you are taking in more than 2,000 calories a day.
It will be a little more difficult, but not much. That’s because I’m going to show you how to increase your metabolism so that you are burning calories even when you are not working out.
The best workouts for the stomach only work the stomach out indirectly. These are workouts like dumb bell snatches and deal lifts, bench and military presses, squats and lunges. You see, these workouts work your core muscles as well as your legs and arms and your abdomen, of course is part of your body’s core. These workouts do more than just work your muscles. They actually serve to increase your metabolism for days after that. So, even when you are resting you will be burning calories. If you’d like to know more Click Here!

Workout tips to lose weight and stay lean
Perhaps you’ve put on a few unwanted pound in the past 10, 15, 20 years. Perhaps you’re a new mother looking for ways to take the weight off and keep it off. Perhaps you’ve just plaid one too many video games or eaten one too many bags of potato chips. Over the course of a year I lost 40 pounds, so let me share with you some of the ways to lose weight and stay lean.
Let’s start with cardio because this is the obvious place to start. Everyone spends hours and hours on the treadmill at the gym or running when miles the weather is nice. So did I. It’s obvious, the more time you spend the more calories you burn. But, after a while it gets boring and tedious and you stop doing it and fall back into your old habits. I recently learned that by changing up your cardio routine and adding short sprints you will actually be increasing your metabolism and, consequently, burning more calories. So, when you get bored with your routine, add some sprints.
Did you know that the more muscle you carry the more calories you will burn? It’s true. So hit the weights! But, before you do, let me give you some secrets. Exercises that require you to move weight a farther distance are better for you to increase your metabolism and burn more calories. So, a clean and jerk where you lift a weight off the floor and over your head is better for you than curling. The best exercises to increase metabolism are compound exercises that work more than one muscle group at the same time such as: bench press, dips, military press, squats, dead lifts & lunges.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. If you would like to find out more ways to lose weight and stay lean Click Here!

Workout tips for the beginner
Are you looking to start working out but just don’t know where to begin? Perhaps you are a mother who wants to shed the extra pounds of pregnancy. Perhaps you are a teenage boy who has packed on a few too many pounds eating potato chips and playing video games, but now you’ve met the girl of your dreams.
Let me help. Two years ago I was 40 pounds overweight. Today I have dropped the weight and have completely turned my life around. How? Let me tell you.
There are two ways you can start: at home or at the gym. Many people are intimidated with the gym because they feel self conscious. So let’s build confidence at home first. Working out can be as simple as walking around the block for your cardio exercise. Once you get in the habit of this you can start going on hikes in the forest.
You should also be weight training. You can start with body weight exercises at first such as pushups and pull-ups. But, you will eventually want to get a weight bench and some dumbbells. Look for these things at garage sales. When weight training the exercises you should focus on are “compound” exercises such as the bench press, squats or deadlifts. These exercises work more than one muscle group unlike curls which only work the biceps.
Once you’ve built up your confidence it’s time to get a membership to a gym. Don’t worry. Nobody’s looking at you. They’re too busy looking at themselves.
While machines are nice sometimes it is always better to lift with free weights. Free weights require you to balance them which adds to the muscle building and fat burning experience. Did you know that the more muscle you have the more fat you will burn? Did you also know that, while running a long distance will burn more calories, doing some short sprints will increase your metabolism so you will be burning calories even when not working out? There are a number of tricks that you can learn to improve the benefits of your workout. If you are interested justClick Here!

What to eat to get 6 pack abs
It has been said that 6 pack abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym. This couldn’t be more true. You can do all the sit ups and crunches you want. It will not make any difference if you are not following a good nutritional program. I am about to tell you exactly what kind of foods to eat to get 6 pack abs and I’m also going to tell you what foods to avoid. But, I’m also going to tell you exactly how those foods should be eaten which is probably the most important part of all.
The first thing you should know is what foods to avoid. These are overly processed and highly refined foods that typically come in boxes or bags. Avoid at all costs, fast food, soda, French fries and any other food that is more than a few steps away from the way nature intended you to eat it. For example: have a hand full of fresh blueberries not a piece of blue berry pie.
Now, on to the foods you should eat. These are things like lean beef or bison, turkey, chicken and fish. Have raw or steamed vegetables with your meals as well as some fresh fruit. Eat brown rice as opposed to white rice (white rice is overly processed). Eat whole wheat bread as opposed to white bread. Again, eat your foods in a state that is as close to nature as possible.
Now, it’s not just what you eat but how you eat it. You must be a grazer not a gorger. Eat like a gazelle not a lion. This means that instead of three large meals a day you will eat 4 – 6 smaller meals. This is because after a large meal you have a spike in insulin which effects your fat burning capabilities. When you eat 4 – 6 smaller meals your insulin levels are more even and you are able to burn more fat. And, that’s what getting 6 pack abs is all about; burning fat.

What body fat percentage do I have to have great abs?
It’s really a two part question isn’t it? The first part is the simplest. If you are a man you have to be below 10% body fat to have great abs. If you’re a woman you need to get below 16%. Now, the second part of the question is how do I get to that point? Well a lot of people spend a lot of time in the gym and never really get there. So, let me outline a sure fire strategy to get you to the right body fat percentage so that you can have great abs.
The foundation of this strategy is solid nutrition. Stay away from overly processed and highly refined foods such as soda, potato chips, candy bars and even white rice. Eat brown rice instead of white rice and wheat bread as opposed to white bread. The fact of the matter is that you want to eat foods as close to the way nature intended you to eat them. Eat raw or steamed vegetable, eat fresh fruit and nuts. Eat lean beef and bison, chicken, turkey and fish. You should also eat 4-6 small meals a day rather than 3 large meals.
Now that we’ve got a solid nutritional foundation let’s move on to burning fat. Did you know that the more muscle you carry the more fat you burn? So let’s start building muscle by doing compound exercises like the bench press and dead lift, the military press and squats. These types of exercises burn many more calories than curling and flies because they work multiple muscle groups rather than concentrating on one. These exercises also increase your resting rate of metabolism so you are burning more body fat over a longer period of time.
The next step is to develop a cardio regimen to effectively burn fat. You would think that the more miles you run the better. Not necessarily. While running a mile burns more calories than doing to 100 meter dashes, the sprints actually increase your metabolism so that you are burning more calories throughout the day.

Very effective ab workouts
Have you spent hours doing sit ups and stomach crunches and haven’t seen any results yet? Are you looking for the most effective ab work out? Well, I have a secret for you. While ab exercises strengthen your stomach muscles you usually won’t see the results because they are hidden beneath a layer of fat and you can’t spot reduce fat.
What you need to do is to decrease your over all body fat percentage to under 10 percent for a man and 16 percent for a woman. To do this you will do some workout exercises you probably never thought about.
People spend hours and hours running mile after mile and still don’t get to a low enough body fat percentage to see their abs? Why? Because, even though you will burn more calories running longer distances it only raises your metabolism rate for 1 – 2 hours afterward. To really get the best benefit of your cardio routine mix it up and do some short sprints. Doing 10 50 to 100 meter sprints will increase your metabolism for 1 – 2 days afterward, causing you to burn more calories over a longer time.
Next, you need to start lifting weights and building muscle. The more muscle you have the more fat you burn. But, you need to do some very specific exercises called compound exercises. Rather than spending time isolating your muscles do exercises that work multiple muscle groups like: the military press, clean and jerk, bench press, squats and dead lifts. Because these exercises put more of your body to work they serve to increase your metabolism rate as well. Also, they inadvertently work the core muscles of your torso which include your abs.

Upper ab workouts
Looking for a great workout to target your upper abs? I’ve got a secret for you. You can’t isolate one part of your abdomen from another…just like you can’t spot reduce fat. How long have you been doing ab exercsises? See any results yet? That’s what I thought. The vast majority of people in the gym are there with the idea of reaching the holy grail; 6 pack abs However, most of them never do because they are going about it in the wrong way. Listen up and I will steer you in the right direction.
When you work your abs they are getting strong and toned. However, ab exercises do not expend enough energy to burn a lot of fat, which is usually obscuring your abs from public display. To show off all that hard work you have put into your abs you need to reduce your over all body fat percentage. Men need to get below 10% and women need to get below 16%. To do this we need to expend a lot of calories. The average person burns about 2000 calories in an average day. However, it takes 3,500 calories to burn a single pound of fat. This is quite a disparity. If we reduced our caloric intake 500 calories each day it would take a week to lose a single pound of fat. How are we ever going to reach our goal of 6 pack abs?
The trick to burning fat so we can see our abs is to raise our metabolism so that we are burning more fat throughout the day. There are a few ways to do this. Two of the easiest are to drink lots of green tea and take cayenne pepper capsules. Both of these foods have the ability to increase our resting metabolism rate.
But, since you’re in the mood to workout, let’s talk about ways to really get your metabolism revving high.
We’ll start with cardio because that seems to be what everyone does to burn fat. But, did you know that running sprints will actually increase your rate of metabolism so that you are burning more calories 1-2 days after your workout?
Next we’ll move to weight lifting. Doing exercises like dead lifts, clean and jerk and dumb bell snatches will not only raise your metabolism and leave you winded but actually work you abs as well. Try it. You’ll see.

Top 10 ab workouts
Are you looking for the top ten ab workouts because you’re tired of leg lifts and stomach crunches? Perhaps you’re frustrated because you haven’t seen any results. That’s because, while ab workouts do strengthen your stomach muscles the results are more often than not hidden by a layer of fat. This is because you can’t spot reduce fat on your stomach any more than you can reduce it on your chin.
So how do I go about revealing my abs? you must reduce your over all body fat percentage. Men must be below 10% and women must be below 16%. To do this you are going to do some workouts that you never would have guessed. These workouts don’t focus on your abs at all. But, they do raise your resting metabolism rate so that you are burning more calories over a longer period of time.
Wind sprints. It is true that running longer distances burns more calories. But, longer distances only raise your metabolism for an hour or two after your workout. Sprints raise your metabolism for a day or two so that you are burning fat more efficiently.
Weight lifting. The more muscle you have the more fat you will burn. But, it is very important that you focus your efforts on the right type of workout. Don’t spend time on workouts that isolate muscle groups like curling for biceps or flys for pectorals. By doing compound exercises that work multiple muscle groups at once you will be getting an all over body workout and raising your metabolism as well. These are exercises like dead lifts, clean and jerk, bench press, dips and squats. These exercises will also inadvertently strengthen the core muscles of your torso which include your abs.

The right exercise to flat abs
Did you ever wonder which are the right exercises to do for flat abs? Are they sit ups or crunches? Maybe leg lifts would be good. Surprise! Even though these are good for toning the abdominal muscles, they will not actually reduce belly fat to reveal the abs underneath. Consequently, you could have a terrific set of abs, they’re just covered by your beer gut.
To really show off your flat abs you need to reduce body fat (below 10% for men and 16% for women). And, you can’t do that through thousands of sit ups because it’s impossible to spot reduce fat.
So, how do we burn body fat to reveal our flat abs?
Surprise again! One of the best ways to burn fat is to lift weights. The more muscle your body has the more fat your body burns.
But, which weight lifting exercises should I do?
Good question, because there are some exercises that are actually fairly useless and we want to make the most of our exercise time. The exercises you should concentrate on are referred to as compound exercises because they involve more than one muscle group. For example, the bench press works both the pectoral muscles and the triceps as opposed to curling which only works the biceps. There are a number of compound exercises but the primary ones are the: bench press, clean and jerk, military press, dead lift, Romanian dead lift, squat and lunges.
Beside the main muscle groups these compound exercises focus on, they also improve the strength of your body “core” or torso. Consequently, the work to tone and, yes, flatten your abs. Oh, one other thing. These exercises also help to increase your metabolism so that you burn more fat even when you’re not working out.

The best way to get flat, sexy abs
The best way to get flat sexy abs does not involve diets or lots of sit ups or even lots of running. It involves increasing your rate of metabolism so that you are burning fat at a faster rate throughout the day.
Let’s take a look at the places people usually go wrong in trying to achieve flat, sexy abs.
Diet. Diets are doomed to fail because they are a temporary fix to a long term problem. You want to take the weight off and keep it off. To do this you need to change your approach to nutrition in general. Stop eating overly processed highly refined foods with lots of sugars in them. Cut out the soda and fast food. Eat foods closer to the way nature intended. Fresh vegetables, nuts and fruit are better snacks than potato chips and pretzels. Eat lean beef, chicken and fish. Bison meat is the perfect meal.
Sit ups. The reason doing lots of sit ups doesn’t work is because you can’t spot reduce fat. You can’t eliminate fat from your belly any more than you could eliminate it from your right arm. You’ve got to reduce the your over all body fat percentage to under 10% for men and under 16% for women.
While running long distances does burn calories, running ten 100 meter sprints will increase your rate of metabolism and you’ll burn more calories throughout the day.
One of the other best ways of increasing your overall rate of metabolism is to do weight lifting exercises that work multiple muscle groups at the same time. The more muscle you have, the more fat you will burn. But, if you do exercises such as the clean and jerk, bench press and dead lift you will be increasing your metabolism and burning more calories than you would have otherwise.

Why is this you ask? Because you’ve already got flat abs, they just need to be revealed from behind a layer of body fat. And how exactly do you do this? Let me say it again. By increasing your metabolism to burn away the body fat down to a level that your abs can be seen. This is under 10% for men and under 16% for women.
OK, so how do I go about increasing my metabolism, hmm? Well, one of the other best ways of increasing your overall rate of metabolism is to do weight lifting exercises that work multiple muscle groups at the same time. The more muscle you have, the more fat you will burn. But, if you do exercises such as the clean and jerk, bench press and dead lift you will be increasing your metabolism and burning more calories than you would have otherwise.
OK, so what about running? Yes, running is definitely important. But, not the kind you might be thinking. It’s true, running long distances does burn more calories than sprinting short distances. This should not be neglected. However, doing ten 100 meter sprints will serve to increase your metabolism just as doing the exercises above. This is because anaerobic exercises (weight training, sprinting) cause your body to react to the exertion you put forth for hours after you are done. This raises your metabolism and, consequently, burn more fat.

Because you’ve already got flat abs, they just need to be revealed from behind a layer of body fat. How do you do this?

These exercises work multiple muscle groups at the same time which has the effect of increasing your resting rate of metabolism so that you are burning more calories during the day. They also serve to strengthen your core or torso muscles in general meaning your back and that thing on the other side of your back…your abs. Oh, I forgot to mention that the more muscle you have the more fat you will burn throughout the day. The more fat you burn throughout the day, the sooner the flat abs that you already have will be revealed to the world!

Simple ab workouts
The simplest ab work out is the ab vacuum. This strengthens and tones your abs by using isometrics. It is so simple that it can be done while you are standing in line at the grocery store or anywhere else you have a few minutes to kill. Basically, you are just going to suck your stomach in like you would at the beach when someone sexy walks by.
Start by sucking your belly button as far back as you can and hold it for ten to twenty seconds before releasing. Pretty simple right?
Now, let’s talk about the reason that you want a simple work out. You probably don’t have a lot of time to spend to get in shape right? Well, I’ve got a secret for you. Ab workouts will strengthen your ab muscles but people rarely see the results because of the fat they carry around their midsection.
An even simpler way of revealing your abs is to increase your resting metabolism rate so that you are burning more calories throughout the day. To show off your abs men need to be below 10% body fat and women need to be below 16%. The average person burns 2000 calories in a day and a pound of fat is 3,500 calories. So if you lowered your caloric intake to 1500 a day it would take you 7 days to burn a pound of fat.
Here are some other simple ways to raise your metabolism so you burn more calories in a day.
Drink green tea and take cayenne pepper capsules. Both of these foods have been found to increase the body’s resting metabolism rate so that you burn more calories over a longer period of time.

Sexy ab workouts
Are you looking for a great workout to get those sexy abs you see on movie stars and models? Have you tried doing sit ups and crunches, leg lifts and knee lifts without much success? Well, the way to get those sexy abs is actually fairly easy. It’s just that most people misdirect their efforts.
First, to get a nice set of sexy abs you need to burn the fat away from your midsection. The problem with sit ups and other ab exercises is that they do not actually burn that many calories and, if they did, you can’t spot reduce fat on your body. To burn the fat away from your midsection you need to burn the fat from your entire body as well.
There are a number of great ways to do this. They take less time than you are probably spending in the gym already and they are all very surprising.
Let’s take a look at cardio first. Cardio burns fat, this is correct. The longer the distance you run, the more fat you will burn. This is true as well. However, did you know that sprinting actually increases your resting rate of metabolism so that you are burning calories even after your workout is over. You can spend less time doing ten 100 meter dashes and burn more calories over the course of a week.
Now, let’s take a look at weight lifting because the more muscle you have the more calories you will burn. A lot of people make the mistake of concentrating on individual muscle groups like the bicep and the pectorals. Like sit ups, these types of exercises don’t burn a lot of calories. To burn lots of calories you need to incorporate more of your body in the work out. Instead of curls and flies do dumb bell snatches and dead lifts. Do military presses and renegade rows. There are a whole lot of workouts that actually yield results, it’s just that people aren’t aware of them. If you would like to learn more Click Here!

Routine workout advice
Are you just starting to get back into a workout routine after years away from the gym? Perhaps you’ve never been to the gym in your life and need to figure out some sort of daily pattern of what the heck to do. A few years ago I lost 40 pounds after years of sitting on the couch. So, let me give you some advice on how to get into or back into the swing of things.
First, start small. Don’t expect too much of yourself when you are beginning that way you will be impressed by the results you do achieve.
Second, do a combination of both weight lifting and cardio. Weight lifting will build muscle and the more muscle you have the more fat you burn. Cardio is important too. However, you don’t have to spend hours every day on a treadmill. By doing ten 50 – 100 meter sprints you will actually raise your metabolism so that you are burning more calories when you do spend longer on the treadmill.
Third, there is no reason to do sit ups or any sort of ab workouts until you have gotten down to the body fat percentage that will make your ab muscles visible. Men need below 10% body fat and women below 16%.
Four, you don’t need to spend hours a day in the gym. Just spend between 30 – 45 minutes five days a week. You can do cardio one day and lift weights the next. Variety is the spice of life and will keep you from getting bored.
Finally, here are some weight loss secrets that will add to the effectiveness of your efforts. Exercising in the morning before eating burns off the fat calories rather than carb calories so this is an optimal time. Green tea has been found to significantly increase the metabolism and therefore contributes to weight loss. Brew yourself some green tea and save it as iced tea to drink while you are working out. And, last but not least, take cayenne pepper capsules. The benefits of this spice are too numerous to list here but one of them is that it also increases your metabolism.

Rock hard male abs
Planning on going to the beach this summer and want to be able to show off a set of rock hard abs for the ladies? It’s really not that hard if you know what to do. The problem is that most men focus on the wrong things when trying to achieve those fabled rock hard abs.
The first stop on the way to the beach is the grocery store. No, not for tanning oil but for some good nutritious food. It has been said that rock hard abs are made in the kitchen and not in the gym and, if you are eating overly processed foods that come in bags or boxes you are never going to make it to the beach. Start eating fresh fruit, nuts and vegetables. Eat fish, chicken and lean beef. There is no need to go on a diet because diets are designed to last a short time. Just change the way you eat and you’re off to a great start.
The second stop on the way to the beach is the gym. But, you need to know what exercises to do. A lot of people spend a lot of time doing ab exercises only to see no results. This is because you can’t spot reduce fat. Most people have a reasonably good set of abs. they are just hidden behind a beer gut. To remove the layer of fat that is obscuring your abs you need to get down to 10% body fat. There are two ways to do this, by building muscle and increasing your resting metabolism rate. It is a known fact that the more muscle you have, the more muscle you will burn. So, put on some muscle. But there are better exercises for increasing metabolism than others. The exercises you will want to concentrate on are the bench press, military press, clean and jerk, dead lifts and squats. There are some others as well, but these are the central players in getting you some rock hard abs.
Why is this? Because these exercises work your body’s core, or torso. They work your back and your front as well as the primary muscle groups they target. And, because they work so many muscles at once, the body is exhausted and it increases your metabolism.

Rock hard female abs
OK ladies. So you want to get into shape and get a set of rock hard female abs? The trick for women is to get down to below 16% body fat. There are a number of ways to go about this. Let’s start with the easiest and finish with the hardest.
1. Drink lots of green tea and take cayenne pepper capsules. Researchers have found that both of these foods have the ability to increase your resting metabolism rate and, therefore, burn more fat. There, that wasn’t too hard was it?
2. Do not go on a diet. Diets are short term fixes to a lifetime situation. Simply change your nutrition habits. Instead of eating highly processed and refined foods that come in a box or a bag eat foods that are closer to the way nature intended. Eat fruits and vegetables and nuts. Eat lean beef or bison, fish and chicken or turkey. Still not too bad, right?
3. Start doing cardio. But, the type of cardio you do will be important. While running or doing the stairmaster for hours on end will burn lots of calories, doing short sprints will actually increase your metabolism so that you will be burning fat even when you rest. There, that was a little harder but, not really too bad.
4. Start lifting weights. The more muscle you have the more fat you will burn to get down to the 16% body fat range. The best exercises to do this work multiple muscle groups and will help increase your metabolism. Do exercises like dead lifts and clean and jerk, squats and lunges (these will firm up your legs and butt as well).
5. Now that you’ve finished all those other steps to getting down to a 16% body fat you can start doing sit ups and leg lifts, crunches and bicycles. These will really bring out your rock hard female abs

Personal training workout tips
Are you looking to start a workout regimen and don’t know where to begin? Because I had lifted weights and run cross country when I was younger I thought I knew what I was doing a few years back when I decided to lose 40 pounds. However, I have recently learned some things that have changed the way I am working out. Let me share them with you.
Did you know that doing 10 50 to 100 meter dashes will actually increase your metabolism? It’s true. While spending hours on the treadmill will burn more calories while you are working out, doing short sprints will allow you to burn more calories in your sleep. Consequently I have a lot more time to devote to other things.
Did you know that the more muscle you carry the more fat you will burn? Yes, and the best way to build this muscle is by focusing on weight lifting exercises that work multiple muscle groups rather than only one. Like a lot of people, I used to focus on single muscle groups like biceps, triceps, pectorals etc. but, after learning what I have, I’ve started doing things like the dead lift and the clean and jerk. These exercises work a multitude of muscle groups and will leave you exhausted in a short time.
Here’s a little secret about weight lifting exercises that I recently learned. Exercises like the bicep curl don’t do much for you in terms of burning calories because you are only using one muscle group and the range of motion is not that great. The clean and jerk on the other hand requires you to lift a weight off the ground and over your head which is a significantly greater distance and uses more muscle groups. This has the same effect as running sprints because it increases your metabolism and you will be burning more calories for days on end.

Most effective ab workouts
Are you looking for the most effective ab workouts in the world? Well, prepare to be surprised. Perhaps you are looking for the most effective ab workouts because after years of doing sit ups and crunches you still can’t see your abs. This is because you can no more spot reduce fat on your stomach than you can on your elbow. To see your abs you must reduce your overall body fat % (below 10% for men and 16% for women).
To do this we are not going to work the abs at all! Well, at least not directly. We are going to work all the other muscles in your body.
The most effective ab workouts are compound workouts which work multiple muscle groups at a time rather than individual muscles. Let’s start with the legs.
1. Dead lift. In this exercise you stand with your legs shoulder width apart and bend over a bar bell. While looking forward and maintaining a straight back you squat down and pick up the bar bell to your waist. That’s it.
2. Squats. In this exercise you will place a barbell on your shoulders and simply squat with the weight as if you are sitting down before coming back up and repeating the motion.
3. Romanian dead lift. Also, known as the straight leg dead lift. This is similar to the regular dead lift but you don’t squat to pick up the weight. It is important to remember that your legs must be slightly bent.
4. Lunges. You can do this workout with or without holding dumbbells in your hands. Simply stand in place and step forward with one foot while you lower your other knee toward the ground. This workout can either be done in place or walking. Make sure to repeat and equal number of times for both legs.
In no more than a half an hour you will have worked out all the muscle in your legs and butt as well as the muscles of your torso, including your abs. They are simple exercises but don’t let looks fool you. They will give you a killer workout and leave you winded.
Now let’s move on to the upper body.
5. Military Press. In this exercise you start by holding a barbell at the level of your shoulders and you raise it over your head. Lower the barbell and repeat.
6. Clean and jerk. This exercise starts with the barbell on the floor. Simply grab it with your hands faced down and lift it up to your chest in one motion. Then in another motion raise it over your head. Lower and repeat
7. Dumbell snatches. Start with a dumbbell between your legs. Bend down, grab it and lift to high over your head. Lower and repeat.
By doing these exercises you will be working out your entire body and even when you don’t think you are working your abs, you are. This is because these exercises inadvertently work the core muscles of your torso including your back and abs.

To do this we are not going to work the abs at all! Well, at least not directly. We are going to work all the other muscles in your body.
The most effective ab workouts are compound workouts which work multiple muscle groups at a time rather than individual muscles. Let’s start with the legs.
1. Dead lift. In this exercise you stand with your legs shoulder width apart and bend over a bar bell. While looking forward and maintaining a straight back you squat down and pick up the bar bell to your waist. That’s it.
2. Squats. In this exercise you will place a barbell on your shoulders and simply squat with the weight as if you are sitting down before coming back up and repeating the motion.

More home ab workouts
Here are some great and surprising ab workouts that you can do in the privacy of your own home. You can use dumb bells or even just the weight of your body. Now, I said that these ab workouts will be surprising, and they will be, so I need to explain some things first. Most traditional ab workouts really don’t yield the results people want. This is because you can’t spot reduce fat on the belly and sit ups, crunches and other typical workouts don’t burn enough calories to reduce body fat percentage.
For men to see their abs their body fat percentage needs to be below 10% and for women it needs to be below 16%. The only way to really do that is to increase your resting rate of metabolism. That is what the following exercises will do. They look deceptively simple, and they are, but they will cause you to exert such effort that your body will go through a metabolic change. Lastly, they also work your abs even though they don’t look like it. Take my word, try it and you’ll feel it in your abs the next day.
Squat: Standing up and looking straight ahead squat into a sitting position, keeping your back straight and your eyes forward and then stand up again. Do this repeatedly.
Dead lift: Squatting over a pair of dumb bells and looking straight ahead lift the dumb bells, keeping your back straight and your eyes forward stand up and then lower the dumbbells again. Do this repeatedly.
One armed dumbbell snatch: Standing up over a dumb bell and looking straight ahead squat down and pick up the dumb bell. Then, in one motion, stand up and lift the dumb bell over your head. Then return it to the ground, lowering your body in a squatting position. Do this repeatedly.
Dumb bell swings: Squatting over a dumb bell lift it as you stand up and raise it with both of your arms shoulder height in front of you. Lower it to the ground again with your body in a squatting position.

Middle ab workouts
I’ve got a secret for you. You can’t isolate your middle ab muscles from your lower or upper ab muscles. Now, I’ve got another secret for you. You can’t spot reduce fat on your stomach any more than you can spot reduce fat on your elbow. This is why, even though ab workouts do strengthen ab muscles, you can’t see the results.
In order to see your abs men must get below 10% body fat and women must get below 16%. You will simply not be able to burn the kind of calories required to do this by doing ab exercises.
Now, here is the biggest secret of all. To work your abs you need to work your other muscles instead. The exercises I am going to show you are designed to work all the muscles in your body as well as the core muscles of your torso which include your abs. Above and beyond that, they will raise your body’s metabolism for days afterward so that you are getting the fat burning effects of the workout well into the future.

Men’s fitness tips - daily nutrition
You’ve been doing your cardio and lifting your weights religiously for some time now but the results you want are still not there. That’s because exercise is a pyramid and, while nutrition is usually the easiest part of the triangle (no running or heavy lifting at the dinner table), it is usually the most over looked.
First, there is no need to ever go on a diet. The problem with diets is that they limit consumption of a certain energy sources such as protein, carbs, or fat so that you are craving something your body naturally need and when you go off the diet you put the weight back on.
While gorging yourself on carbs is not recommended starving your body of carbs is not either. Carbs are your body’s preferred source of energy. One reason why people lose weigh on a low carb diet is that they lose water weight by depleting their muscle glycogen. Glycogen is essentially carbohydrate that is stored in your muscle. Water is also held in the muscle cells along with the glycogen. Consequently, when you lose glycogen you also lose water weight. The problem with this is that your body becomes like a raisin which was a grape that is just sucked of its juices.
Another type of diet is a low fat diet. However, fat is essential to the body and eliminating fat is not as beneficial as it may seem. Did you know that even though the native Inuit of Alaska traditionally ate a very high fat diet they had a very low rate of obesity. In the islands of the Pacific coconut fat has traditionally comprised 60%-70% of caloric intake however these people have historically been very lean.
So what’s a guy to do? Nutrition need not be a chore. It can be as simple as changing some dietary habits. My wife lost 40-50 pounds in a year by simply eliminating soda from her diet. This is because the main culprit to poor nutrition an epidemic of obesity is not carbs or fat it is processed foods. The people of Alaska and the Pacific did not eat overly processed foods. They ate food the way it was meant to be eaten. Fruits, nuts and vegetables, fish, chicken and beef are meant to be eaten in their most natural and unprocessed state.
As Mike Geary says in The Truth About Six Pack Abs “The historical increase in the use of highly processed and refined foods such as refined flour, refined sugar, and refined/hydrogenated vegetable oils coincides with the increase in degenerative diseases such as heart disease and obesity.”
So, if you want to make the most of your gains in the gym or on the track or however you maintain yourself just make some fundamental changes to your diet. And, if you are interested in finding out more, take a look at this. Click Here!

Men’s ab workouts
The best workouts for abs, surprisingly enough, don’t focus on the abs at all. This is because you can’t spot reduce fat on your abs. This is also because exercises that focus on individual muscle groups don’t expend enough energy to burn calories or, more importantly, increase your metabolism.
The best ab workouts to do if you are a man or, for that matter a woman, are compound exercises which work multiple muscle groups at the same time. The following workouts will not only work all the muscles in your body but the core muscles of your back and, of course, abs.
1. Military Press. This exercise works the shoulder muscles primarily. However, because your core muscles are used to maintain balance it also works the back and abs.
2. Clean and jerk. This exercise works the back muscles, the muscles on the back of the upper leg, biceps and forearms.
3. Dead lift. This exercise works the back, butt and the muscles on the back of the upper leg.
4. Squats. This exercise works the muscles on the front of the upper leg, the muscles on the back of the upper leg, butt, Hip, and Calves.
5. Romanian dead lift. This exercise works your entire torso, legs and forearms.
6. Lunges. These will work your entire legs and butt.
While these exercises may appear simple, they will leave you winded and give you a killer burn. They will also increase your metabolism for 1-2 days after and enable you to burn more calories.

Information about fitness
According to recent surveys America leads the world as the fattest nation on Earth with 30.6% of the population having a Body Mass Index of over 30. Body Mass Index (BMI) evaluates an individual’s weight in relationship to his height. The UK and Australia are also in the top ten countries suffering from obesity. What is the cause of this epidemic?
Well, I would posit that it is the increased consumption of overly processed and refined foods in the U.S. and throughout the world. Did you know that, even though the Inuit of Alaska and the Pacific Islanders both consumed diets with high fat contents they were traditionally very lean people. The diets of the Masai and Samburu people of Africa consist primarily of raw milk, beef and blood and they consume an average of 4-5 times the quantity of fat as we do in the U.S. but they still remain lean. Why? Because these people are eating their foods in their unprocessed, unrefined state.
On July 15th of 2008 a study was issued that 89% of children’s food products lack proper nutritional value even though 62 % of those products make health claims on the packaging! I have heard that obesity is the new face of starvation and, with statistics like that, who can dispute it?
The problem is that we have forgotten how and what to eat. If you are looking to begin a fitness program the first and easiest step in the make some fundamental changes in what you eat. Instead of overly processed foods in boxes or cans but fresh fruit, vegetables and nuts. Instead of TV dinners make lean beef, chicken and fish. There is no need to go on a diet. Diets are doomed to failure because you starve the body of things it needs for a period of time only to gorge on them when the diet is over. What I am talking about is a fundamental shift in the way you approach food.
After you have made that initial change start eating smaller meals but more often throughout the day.
These changes are easy and gradual but will make a drastic difference in your life. Once you have made those changes you can go on and begin a fitness regimen that consists weight lifting and cardio exercises. If you would like to know more about all these topics, as well as a detailed meal plat to lose weight and stay healthy please Click Here!

How to look like a celebrity with great abs
Are you a woman who wants a great set of head turning abs like the women in cosmopolitan and the other magazines in the check out counter? Don’t have the money for a personal trainer? Let me give you a simple three step plan to getting those abs. It is easier than you might think.
1. No diets! Yes, that is right, no diets. Diets are actually counterproductive and designed to fail. This is because you starve yourself of something your body needs and then you gorge yourself on it when the diet is over. You want a long term solution, not a quick fix. So, the first step to your celebrity like abs is to fundamentally change your dietary habits. Avoid sugars and fried foods. Avoid overly refined and highly processed foods like soda, French fries and potato chips. Eat fresh foods like vegetables, nuts and fruit. Eat lean beef or bison, turkey, chicken and fish.
Now, once that is done you need to eat a couple of other secret foods that will help you burn fat, and it’s all about burning fat. For you to get the abs you want you need t get down to under a 16% body fat. Drinking green tea and taking cayenne pepper capsules will increase your metabolism and help you do just that.
2. Let’s continue burning fat by building muscle. The more muscle you carry the more fat you burn. So, to do this you need to stat lifting weights. Don’t worry, you will not become some muscle bound spectacle. The female body is just not suited to become that muscular unless you really try. You will want to focus on compound exercises that work many muscles in your body, raise your resting metabolism rate and tone and strengthen the muscles in your torso (your abs). These exercises are things like: the clean and jerk, bench press, dead lift, squats and lunges.
3. Now that you’ve changed your diet and raised your rate of metabolism we are going to continue to burn more and more fat in order to reveal the celebrity within you. A good cardio program will burn lots of calories. However, just because running a mile burns more calories than sprinting 100 yards doesn’t mean you should ignore the shorter distances. Sprinting actually increases your rate of metabolism as well as the other things above so that when you run a mile you will actually be burning more calories than you would have otherwise.

How to get flat abs in two days
Flat abs in two days? That’s a pretty big request, isn’t it? Well, let me do you one better. Viola! You’ve already got flat abs! they are just hiding behind a curtain of body fat. The trick now becomes to reveal what’s hiding behind the curtain. Fortunately for you the best way to do this does not involve diets or lots of sit ups or even lots of running. It involves increasing your rate of metabolism so that you are burning fat at a faster rate throughout the day. By increasing your metabolism to burn away the body fat down to a level that your already flat abs can be seen by the world. This means under 10% fat for men and under 16% for women.
One of the other best ways of increasing your overall rate of metabolism is to do weight lifting exercises that work multiple muscle groups at the same time. The more muscle you have, the more fat you will burn. But, if you do exercises such as the clean and jerk, bench press and dead lift you will be increasing your metabolism and burning more calories than you would have otherwise. The best exercises to get flat abs are not sit ups or crunches. They aren’t the elliptical or stairmaster. They are the Bench press, Dead lift, Romanian dead lift, Clean and jerk, Military press, Lunges, Squats and, last but not least, sprints.
Confused? Well, here’s the story. All of these exercises, except sprints, are what are know as compound exercises. These exercises work multiple muscle groups at the same time which has the effect of increasing your resting rate of metabolism so that you are burning more calories during the day. They also serve to strengthen your core or torso muscles in general meaning your back and that thing on the other side of your back…your abs. Oh, I forgot to mention that the more muscle you have the more fat you will burn throughout the day. The more fat you burn throughout the day, the sooner the flat abs that you already have will be revealed to the world!
I thought I had to spend lots of time running long distances to burn calories. Well, let’s talk about sprints now. It’s true, running long distances does burn more calories than sprinting short distances. This should not be neglected. However, doing ten 100 meter sprints will serve to increase your metabolism just as doing the exercises above. This is because anaerobic exercises (weight training, sprinting) cause your body to react to the exertion you put forth for hours after you are done. This raises your metabolism and, consequently, burn more fat.

The average person burns 2000 calories in an average day. To burn a pound of fat takes 3500 calories. So, you simply need to increase your metabolism to burn more calories a day.
So, how do you raise your metabolism in very little time? Here are a few quick and easy ways.
Drink lots of green tea. Researchers have discovered that an ingredient green tea actually acts to increase your metabolism.
Take cayenne pepper capsules. Just like green tea, cayenne pepper serves to increase your metabolism up to 4 hours after you eat it.
Eat four to six smaller meals throughout the day rather than 3 large meals. The act of eating requires your body to burn calories. The more often you do it the more calories you’ll burn.

Home ab workouts
Do you want to firm up your abs but don’t want to go through the hassle of going to the gym. No problem. The exercises I’m going to tell you about can be done with nothing more than a set of dumbbells or even just your body weight. Dumb bells for abs? Am I reading the right article? Yes, you are. Let me tell you a little secret that not too many people know about, because the vast majority of people who spend lots of time working their abs don’t see the results. Even though ab workouts firm and strengthen the ab muscles the results are usually never seen because those muscles are hidden by a layer of fat.
The real trick of getting a nice set of abs is to lower your overall body fat percentage to less than 10% for men and 16% for women. The following exercises will not only workout all the muscles in your body but increase your metabolism for days after so that you are burning more fat.
1. Military Press.
2. Clean and jerk.
3. Dead lift.
4. Squats.
5. Romanian dead lift.
6. Lunges.
It has been said that great abs are made in the kitchen and not the gym. So, since you are working out at home, it is appropriate that we talk about proper nutrition as well.
Recent surveys have shown that America is the most obese country in the world with English speaking countries like the UK and Australia in the top ten. One of the main reasons for this is all the highly processed and overly refined foods that we consume. If we simply switch from eating pre packaged or fast foods to eating food closer to their more natural and more nutritious state we will be far ahead of the game.
Rather than eating a fast food burger for lunch pack some tuna salad. Rather than eating some potato chips eat a hand full of nuts. Rather than eating something out of a box for dinner, make some fish. These foods are significantly better for you and it won’t be long until you notice a difference in your body.

Recent surveys have shown that America is the most obese country in the world with English speaking countries like the UK and Australia in the top ten. One of the main reasons for this is all the highly processed and overly refined foods that we consume. If we simply switch from eating pre packaged or fast foods to eating food closer to their more natural and more nutritious state we will be far ahead of the game.
Rather than eating a fast food burger for lunch pack some tuna salad. Rather than eating some potato chips eat a hand full of nuts. Rather than eating something out of a box for dinner, make some fish. These foods are significantly better for you and it won’t be long until you notice a difference in your body.

Great abs in two weeks
So, you want a great set of abs in two weeks. Depending on where you are in the process I just might be able to help. The trick is burning fat. If you are a man you need to get under 10% body fat. If you are a woman you need to get under 16%. So, if you are in range of that goal you will get those great abs in two weeks. If not, it may take a little longer. Regardless, I can show you some tips so that you spend your time productively rather than on things that won’t work.
Do you want to burn fat at a faster rate all day long rather than when you are just in the gym? I thought so. To do this we need to increase your metabolism. Here are some quick ways to do this.
Drink lots of green tea and take cayenne pepper capsules. These two foods have been proven to increase your resting rate of metabolism so that you burn more fat when you are working out as well as when you are resting.
Are you spending lots of time on the treadmill doing cardio? You can actually spend less time and get better results. By doing 10 sprints every day or so you actually raise your body’s rate of metabolism. This way you will be burning even more fat the next time you get on the treadmill.
Lastly, are you isolating individual muscle groups when you lift weights? Well stop. Start doing compound exercise which work multiple muscle groups at the same time. These exercises have the benefit of raising your metabolism as well as toning your core muscles, i.e. your abs.

Get great abs in only six weeks
Are you going on vacation or hitting the beach in six weeks and have to pack some great abs along with the swim suit? Well then, let’s get started.
First it’s all about burning fat. For a man you need to be below 10% body fat, for a woman you need to be below 16%. Let’s take a step by step approach to this.
Do not start with a diet! Diets are designed to fail simply because they are a short term solution. You need to fundamentally change the way you eat. Avoid overly processed foods. Eat foods that nature wants you to eat like bison, lean beef, chicken, turkey and fish. Snack on fresh veggies, fruit and nuts. Nutrition is important because you can work out all you want but, if you don’t have a foundation of good nutrition, it will do you no good.
Now, let’s get to the gym. No, don’t do sit ups and crunches! At least not yet. We’re going to work on increasing your resting rate of metabolism so that you are burning calories at a higher rate throughout the day rather than just when you work out. To do this we are going to be doing compound exercises such as squats, bench press, dead lifts, dips and military press as well as others. Because these exercises work more than one muscle group at a time they serve to increase your body’s resting metabolism rate and cause you to burn more calories throughout the day. These exercises also tone and strengthen the core muscles in your torso which includes your abs.
Next we are going to develop a cardio regimen that is based on, no not running miles and miles a day, but short sprints. Yes, that’s right. Sprints actually serve to increase your metabolism just like the exercises above so that you burn more fat when you do run longer distances but also while you sleep.
The last thing you might want to do is the easiest. Drink lots of green tea. It has also been proven to raise your metabolism. Put all these things together and watch the pound melt away over the next six weeks.

Get great abs
Going on vacation? Want to get a great set of abs? Or perhaps you’ve met that perfect someone and you want to turn their head. Well, it is easier than you might think.
Step one: Don’t diet. That’s right; I told you it might be easier than you think. Diets are a short term fix for a long term goal. You want to keep the weight off and maintain a great set of abs. To do this you must change the way you approach the way you eat. Most people don’t have great abs because they don’t eat properly. Stay away from over processed foods like TV dinners, potato chips, pretzels etc. Stay away of highly refined foods like soda and candy bars. My wife lost 40 – 50 lbs. in a year just by cutting out soda. You will want to start eating more healthy foods such as chicken and fruits and vegetables and brown rice. Also, you will want to eat more often. Yes, more often. I told you it might be easier than you think. However you will want to eat smaller portions. Eat 4 – 6 small meals a day.
Step two: the next step to fabulous abs is to begin burning fat. Men need to get below 10% body fat and women need to get below 16% before they start revealing their great set of abs. You don’t do this by doing all sorts of ab exercises however. Why? Because they don’t actually do too much to burn fat. Surprisingly, the more muscle you have the more fat you will burn, so, you want to build muscle by lifting weights. The exercises that burn the most fat and increase your metabolism are called compound exercises. These work multiple muscle groups at the same time.
Step three: begin a cardio regimen to burn even more fat. However, you don’t need to spend hours and hours on the treadmill or elliptical. See, easier than you thought, right? While running longer distances burns more calories running short wind sprints raises your metabolism so you burn more calories throughout the day.
Put these three simple steps together and your great set of abs will be turning heads in no time.

Flatten your stomach workouts
Looking for a workout to flatten your stomach? Let’s think about that. If you want to flatten your stomach it must mean you’ve got something protruding from it, like fat. This is the case with most people. The problem is that typical stomach workout like sit ups and crunches don’t actually remove the fat. They build muscle under the fat, but then do little to reduce the fat that would result in a flat stomach.
This is due to a number of reasons. First, you cannot spot reduce fat on your stomach any more than you can under your chin. You need to reduce your overall body fat percentage. Second, even if you could spot reduce fat, typical stomach workouts don’t burn a lot of calories.
To reduce fat we need to burn calories. To do this we need a workout that is going to cause your body to exert a lot of calories. These are workouts like dumb bell snatches and dead lifts, squats, bench presses and clean and presses. These are compound exercises that give you an all over body workout. They also have some other benefits as well, they build muscle and the more muscle you have the more fat you will burn. They also put your body into a metabolic shift so that you are burning calories for many days after the exertion of the workout.
A lot of people do cardio exercises as well to burn fat. It is common sense to think that if you run a longer distance you will burn more calories than if you run a few sprints. This is true. However, sprints have the same effect as the weight exercises above. They cause your body to go into a metabolic shift. So, if you mix sprints with long distance you will be burning even more calories than by running distances alone. If you would like to know more Click Here!

Flat, sexy tummy
How do I go about getting a flat sexy tummy, you may ask? A lot of people spend a lot of time with this goal in mind and never achieve their desired results. This is because they are focusing on the wrong exercises. How may sit ups have you done and you still don’t have that flat, sexy tummy?
Here’s the story. You can do as many sit ups as you want and your abdomen muscles will get firm. However, they will remain obscured by your body fat if you don’t reduce it to below 10% for men and 16% for women. And, here’s the secret, you can’t spot reduce fat. This is why sit ups are not going to help you achieve that flat, sexy tummy you so desperately desire.
The way to reduce your body fat is to build muscle and increase your resting metabolism rate. The more muscle you have, the more fat you will burn. So, what exercises should you do to build muscle and increase your metabolism? The best ones are as follows: bench press, military press, dead lifts, squats, clean and jerk and sprints.
Sprints? Yes, sprints. The thing that all these exercises have in common is that they put the body into a state of shock because of the increased energy they require. One of the ways the body responds is by increasing your resting rate of metabolism. This means that, even while you are sleeping, you will be burning more calories

Flat abs workout
Did you know that a flat abs workout doesn’t need to focus on the abs at all? Why? Because you can’t spot reduce fat. You cannot reduce the fat under your chin any more than you can reduce the fat on your belly or anywhere else for that matter. It needs to be a holistic approach. So, how do I do it you wonder? Let me tell you.
Most people’s efforts to get flat abs are misdirected because they spend way too much time doing long drawn out cardio exercises. While these can be beneficial they should not be the sole focus of your efforts.
Lift weights. The more muscle you carry the more fat you burn. But here’s the trick. The exercises you do must work multiple muscle groups at the same time. Exercises such as the bench press, dead lift and military press work cause you to exert more effort with more of your body and actually help increase your rate of metabolism. Doing these and other exercises will help you reduce your overall body fat percentage and help to reveal your nice flat abs.
Do cardio, but do the right type of cardio. While running three miles on the treadmill burns more calories than running ten 100 meter sprints, the sprints actually serve to increase your rate of metabolism. Consequently, you will be burning more calories over the course of the day.
Some other sneaky ways of increasing your metabolism are to drink lots of green tea. Green tea has been found to significantly increase your resting rate of metabolism in a number of studies. Eat multiple small meals throughout the day. This will give your body an energy source at regular intervals throughout the day and increase your metabolism. Finally, take cayenne pepper capsules. Yes, surprising as it sounds, this simple spice increases your metabolism for up to two to four hours after you eat it.

Fitness information and nutrition
Are you trying to develop a fitness program but just need some information? Well, the first step toward physical fitness will be the easiest. No running, no lifting weights, and, believe it or not, no diets. You just have to change the way you approach nutrition.
The reason I say no diets is because diets, by their inherent nature, are designed to fail. They are short term changes in your eating habits that often result in over eating when they are done. You need to approach nutrition differently and change the things you are eating and how often you eat them. You can actually lose weight by eating more frequently 5-6 small meals a day rather than 3 big meals. Yes, that’s right. Think about grazing animals versus gorging animals in nature. The gazelle is more slender than the rhino isn’t it?
But, to be honest, depending on your schedule, 3-4 or 5-6 smaller meals throughout the day might not be practical. So, let’s start with making some fundamental changes in what you eat. Recent surveys have show that America is the most obese country in the world with English speaking countries like the UK and Australia in the top ten. One of the main reasons for this is all the highly processed and overly refined foods that we consume. If we simply switch from eating pre packaged or fast foods to eating food closer to their more natural and more nutritious state we will be far ahead of the game.
Rather than eating a fast food burger for lunch pack some tuna salad. Rather than eating some potato chips eat a hand full of nuts. Rather than eating something out of a box for dinner, make some fish. These foods are significantly better for you and it won’t be long until you notice a difference in your body.
Once you have made these fundamental changes in your life you can move on to things like walking, hiking, even running and lifting weights. I found it very helpful when I lost over 40 pounds to have a plan in place. If you are interested in finding out more Click Here!

Fabulous abs
Looking for a set of fabulous abs to show off at the beach this summer? A set of abs that make heads turn and people want to talk to you? Well, it is actually quite easy. The reason most people never achieve them is because they are eating incorrectly and then, when they exercise, they are focusing on the wrong things.
So let’s take it one step at a time.
The first step is proper nutrition. You are going to want to get down to 16% body fat if you are a woman and 10% body fat if you are a man. To do this, do not go on a diet. I repeat, do not go on a diet. A diet is a short term solution to a lifelong condition. What you are going to want to do is to fundamentally change the way you approach your nutrition. One of the reasons that the world is suffering from an obesity epidemic is that the foundation of most people’s diets are overly processed and highly refined foods. Avoid these as much as possible. My wife lost 40 – 50 pounds in a year just by eliminating soda from her diet. Eat fresh, real foods like vegetables and fruit, nuts, chicken, turkey, fish and beef or bison.
Once you have established a foundation of good nutrition it is time to focus on exercise. However, you will not be doing the exercises you think you will. There is no need to do any sit ups or crunches, at least not at first. Remember, the goal is to burn body fat and ab exercises simply don’t do that. However, the more muscle you have the more fat you will burn. So, the exercises you want to focus on are the bench press and squats, dead lifts, lunges, clean and jerk and a few other compound exercises that work multiple muscle groups at the same time. Not only do they build the muscle groups they focus, they will firm and tone your torso as well.
You will also want to start a cardio regimen. However, again, probably not the type you think. Most people spend half their lives on a treadmill in the attempt to get fabulous abs and they don’t need to. Remember, the goal is to reduce fat. You can spend an hour on the stairmaster and burn 500 calories. However, you can do just ten short sprints and increase your metabolism so that you are burning more calories all day long.

Exercises for rock hard abs
Want to know the best exercises for rock hard abs? Is it sit ups? No, it’s got to be crunches. Or, how about leg lifts?
While those are good exercises to strengthen your rock hard abs the problem is that they don’t do too much to reduce fat. And, too much fat around the midsection is most everybody’s problem when it comes to showing off your rock hard abs.
So, what are the best exercises then for a set of rock hard abs?
A lot of people go to the gym and concentrate on their biceps even though the bicep is a relatively small and useless muscle compared to the other muscle groups. The mistake that these people are making is that they are not doing compound exercises. Compound exercises are exercises that work more than one muscle group at the same time. The Bench Press works the triceps and the pectorals. The dead lift works the back and the legs. The reason that these exercises are so good is because they inadvertently work the core muscles of your back and abdomen. They also serve to increase your body’s metabolism so that you are burning more calories even when you are not working out.
The next step to revealing your rock hard abs is cardio. While running miles and miles burns calories doing ten 100 yard sprints actually raises your resting metabolism rate so that, again, you will be burning calories even when you are not working out.
