Top Fat Loss Secrets For Flat Six-Pack Abs and a Lean Stomach

Posted on March 24, 2011 by pmalone Leave a comment

Hey Patrick here,

I wanted to share with you a few fat loss secrets that will help you get lean and get those six-pack abs or lean stomach you always wanted.

Reduce Fat FastThe first and most important thing to get control of in order to lose your belly fat and get flat abs is cleaning up your diet. Exercise is important, but your diet is king when it comes to losing body fat so that you can see your abs.

There’s so much confusion these days about what a healthy diet that promotes fat loss really is… after all, we are bombarded by conflicting messages in the media about what is healthy and what is not, and you have all of these gimmicky diet books about low carb, low fat, high protein, vegetarian, fasting, atkins, south beach, liquid diets, and hundreds more. There’s so much conflicting info, that the average consumer doesn’t even know where to start when it comes to eating for fat loss.

The second thing that works time and time again, is to focus on the intensity of your workouts and focus on working the body as a whole in order to get the best metabolic response to lose that stubborn stomach fat.

In order to really get lean, the workouts should have a high intensity, with short rest periods, working the largest muscle groups of the body, instead of trying to isolate specific small muscles like the biceps, triceps, or calves.

For the third thing, let’s talk about actually training the abs specifically. When it comes to training the abs, if you want real results, I always recommend forgetting about the crunches and situps for the most part. They are ok for someone that is really deconditioned, but most people that already have some training under their belt need a much better stimulus for their abs than crunches. Crunches are one of the abs exercises that actually provide the least amount of resistance, and remember that resistance is what develops and tones the muscles.

Ab Exercises Do Not Cause Stomach Fat Loss

Posted on March 18, 2011 by pmalone Leave a comment

It seems that everyone is always asking me what the best ab workouts are to get a flatter stomach. The common belief that ab workouts will help you to lose belly fat is one of the biggest misconceptions people out there believe. Almost everyone has varying degrees of excess body fat in the abdominal region, and the best way to burn off that extra stomach fat continues to elude most.

The problem is that most people are searching for the wrong exercises and workout types to lose stubborn belly fat. Most people are searching for some miraculous combination of abs exercises combined into the best ab workout ever invented that will burn off their belly fat faster than you can read this article.

Reduce Fat Fast1Unfortunately, ab-specific workouts do NOT burn fat off of your belly. They only tone and strengthen the underlying abdominal muscles. What you really need to focus on is a full body strategic workout that will cause a much greater metabolic rate increase and fat-burning hormonal response from your training program as a whole.

In addition, simply doing cardiovascular workouts will not necessarily create the greatest metabolic response or hormonal response either. What you really need is a much more rounded training program that focuses on training the entire body with resistance training and multi-joint exercises in a higher intensity fashion.

This type of high intensity full body training combined with a healthy balanced diet full of nutrient density on a regular basis, is the real key secret to losing the extra stomach fat that covers up the abs. This is a much better plan of attack than just trying to do ab workouts and hoping that just doing a bunch of ab exercises like crunches and leg raises are going to make you lose your belly fat.

The amazing thing is that the majority of the population still believes that in order to get rid of belly fat, you need to do ab workouts every day using hundreds of reps. I see people giving this type of erroneous advice every day on all of the fitness forums. Please do not waste your time with this type of advice!

Now before you say “how can an abs expert not recommend abdominal exercises”, realize that I do strongly believe that a certain amount of ab-specific exercises mixed into your routines are beneficial. Ab exercises will help you strengthen and tone the abdominal muscles and are useful for other purposes such as a healthy back and posture when done correctly. But the fact remains that ab exercises are not necessary for fat loss.

A much smarter full body resistance training routine and a clean healthy balanced diet are the most important factors. Many of the full body exercises also indirectly work the abdominals and core due to the stabilization required in some of the more difficult variations.

Reducing Fat The Smart Way

Posted on March 18, 2011 by pmalone Leave a comment

Many people wanting to lose weight and fat are looking for the next magic pill, or quick fix diet. The truth is that these “magic” weight loss solutions rarely work and in some cases actually cause some people to gain more weight then when they started.

Why do people end up gaining weight after trying a quick fix for weight loss? Well most quick fixes that claim dramatic weight loss or fat loss results in a matter of days are just flat out lying. While it may be possible to drop 5-10 pounds withing a few days, the truth is most of that weight is water weight and not fat. Basically your body is losing water that is an essential part of your body and very important for losing fat.

Why low fat, low carb, or other fad diets don’t work.

Any diet that eliminates are severely restricts a certain type of food such as fat or carbohydrates is not a good long term solution. Most of these diets work in the beginning however they are not sustainable over a long period of time. Do you think you could live the rest of your life without ever eating pasta or pizza ever again?? I don’t, and I don’t pretend to think I ever could. Having a healthy balance of fat, carbohydrates, and protein in your diet and very important to your success in any weight loss program.

So next time you hear about the next “magic” weigh loss secret…remember you’ll be better off in the long run without it.

Tips For Losing Weight and Fat

Posted on March 15, 2011 by pmalone Leave a comment

The below weight and fat loss tips are very helpful. Any diet or exercise routine you are considering that goes against these tips may be harmful or a waste of your time. Now that I’ve given my disclaimer let’s get into the weight loss tips.

Weight Loss Tip #1:

Make sure your primary focus is on health first. Taking dangerous diet pills that contain artificial stimulants and appetite suppressants will only serve to compromise your well-being down the road. And there is no guarantee that this junk will actually even work in the first place!

Weight Loss Tip #2:

If you do plan on using any kind of supplementation along with your weight loss diet plan, the best thing you can use is an all-natural colon cleanser. A good colon cleanser can have you losing many pounds of toxic build-up in a matter of a few days. This is real weight loss that can have you looking thinner and flatter before you really even do anything!

Weight Loss Tip #3:

When it comes to your diet, there’s really only one thing you need to focus on. Is it calories? Carbohydrates? Fat grams? Protein? No! It’s metabolism! You want to eat foods that naturally boost your metabolism. Your metabolism is basically your internal energy-producing and fat-burning engine that, when revved up nice and hot, will have you losing weight effortlessly… and lightning fast!

Weight Loss Tip #4:

Not only is the kind of food you eat important to rev up your metabolism and transform your body into an automatic fat burning furnace, but how you eat also plays a major role. The old school belief that you’ve got to starve yourself to lose weight is not only false, it’s counter-productive. You want to eat more… that’s right, MORE! 4 or 5 small-to-medium sized meals every day is ideal.

Think of your metabolism as a fat-burning fire inside your body. If you starve the fire, it’s going to go out, and very little fat burning will commence. If you feed it too much, or the wrong kind of food (imagine trying to make a fire grow by dumping a bunch of dirt on it), that won’t work, either. But constantly feeding the fire with high quality fuel will get it burning hotter and hotter… and hotter… and hotter!

Weight Loss Tip #5:

Keep a tight core. Tighten your abdominal muscles as much as possible. Keep them tight as you shower, do the dishes, go on a jog, walk the dog, watch television, work… whenever. The more your keep your abs flexed, the more calories you burn and the nicer your midsection will look!

These 5 weight loss tips are very easy and effective to implement. Remember eating a healthy diet and daily exercise is your best weapon against unwanted weight and fat.

Hi Patrick here, thanks for visiting my website “Reduce Fat Fast Help”.

Now that spring and summer are close upon us many people are wondering how they can reduce fat fast, and especially the belly fat they may have accumulated over the winter months. I know from experience since I’m in that situation right now.

It seems that during the winter it’s easy for me to take off from diet and exercise and just as easy for the pounds to creep on. I especially gain weight in my mid-section (Belly Fat) and my face. Men and women gain fat differently. For men most of the weight is gained in their belly and face. For women it tends to be their hips, thighs, and butt. I know ladies, its not what you want to hear.

So what’s the best way to lose fat fast you may be wondering?

Well a lot of people think that if they do tons of sit-ups and ab exercises this will help flatten their stomach and get rid of any excess belly fat faster. This is incorrect. There is no way to “spot reduce” and lose weight in any 1 specific area. No matter what you read on the internet, or what infomercials you see on television….you cannot spot reduce and lose weight in just your belly.

The truth is that when you gain weight you’ll usually notice it first in one part of your body, and as you gain more weight you’ll see it in other parts of your body. So when it comes time to losing weight it’s reversed. Wherever you noticed the most recent weight gain, that will be the first to come off. And wherever you noticed the initial weight gain, that will be the last to come off.

Lets use me as an example. I was fairly overweight recently. When I first gain weight its mostly in my stomach, and the more weight I gain it eventually shows a lot in my face. When I start losing a lot of weight it’s noticeable right away in my face. But it seems like my stomach is the last place to really start noticing a difference.

Now don’t get discouraged by this. This is good information to know so you don’t get upset and give up before your reach your goals. What you want to do to get rid of your belly fat is to reduce your overall body fat percentage. You do this by eating right and exercising. I’m sorry there are no magic pills or magic machines that are going to make you instantly thinner without diet or exercise.

Hopefully this post will help get you on the right track to getting rid of your belly fat, as well as living a more healthy life style. I’m be posting more helpful tips on how to lose weight and fat over the next several days.

Thanks,
Patrick
