If you’re a man on a mission to get
washboard abs, it’s helpful to keep a few factors in mind for how to reach this
goal in record time.
When most men set the goal to get washboard
abs, they begin doing an endless series of crunches that never seems to let up.
In the process, they end up feeling
frustrated and upset that they just don’t seem to be moving closer to success.
So how do you get washboard abs? What
secrets to success don’t you understand?
Let’s have a quick look at the main points
to keep in mind with regards to how you can get washboard abs quickly and
easily.
Focus
On Your Diet First
First things first, if you really want to
get washboard abs, the very initial thing that you will have to do is focus on
your diet. Diet is
going to play the largest role in helping you shed excess fat around your
middle, so if you aren’t taking care of this, you aren’t going to see progress.
You should be focusing on a diet that is
full of lean protein sources, healthy fats, and carbohydrates coming mostly
from fruits and vegetables.
Grains should be placed right around the
workout period for optimal fat burning effects and energy maintenance.
Lift
Heavy Weights
Next, when looking at your workouts, make
sure that you keep the weight you’re lifting on the heavy side. When some people start to turn their focus to
fat loss, they get caught up in lifting lightweights for high reps.
Don’t let yourself do this. Not only does
that set you up for lean muscle mass loss as you proceed on your reduced
calorie intake, but it’s also going to have a lower metabolic effect on the
body.
For males especially who have the
testosterone to generate lean muscle mass relatively quickly, heavy weights are
a must.
Perform
Weighted Crunches
When looking at your abdominal workout
sessions, you can’t go wrong adding in some weighted ab work. While females are
very concerned with building a svelte waistline and thus are better off keeping
weight out of the picture, if you’re a male who is looking to make your abs
‘pop’, weighted ab work is the way to go.
This will help to build up the ridges that
the six pack abs are made of, increasing your ab appearance.
Limit
Your Alcohol
Finally, keep your alcohol intake as low as
you possibly can. This is a hard one for
many people as alcohol is something that they do enjoy indulging in, but keep
in mind that alcohol will set you back.
As soon as it enters your system, fat burning comes to a halt and won’t
continue on again until it’s oxidized off.
If you can keep these points in mind as you
continue to go about your fat burning workout program, you can ensure that you
see the success that you’re after and attain flat, defined abs.
