Quick Abs - What You Eat and What You Do

By Jose Loni

We hear of all these ab exercises, fad diets and machines that promise you great abs. To get quick abs, just focus on diet plus exercise. By having a balance between what we eat and regular exercise, we can get quick results.

Diet plus exercise are the keys to getting quick abs. By controlling what we eat, we ensure that our body will not store any more fat. Then by increasing our exercise activity to affect our metabolism, the body will burn more body fat and make the abs more visible.

A balanced diet consists of complex carbohydrates, lean proteins and only minimal fat. This combination is an ideal fuel source for our body. Foods high in fat and sugar take longer to use up so it is essential to avoid these or you end up storing even more fat than burning them.

Choosing to eat small, frequent meals is a great way to limit our caloric intake with the additional benefit of keeping us energized throughout the day. Because our system isn't overloaded with calories in just a single meal, there are more chances for it to completely burn off what was consumed, leaving less chances for fat accumulation and storage.

Daily physical activity is key to speed up your metabolism. Maintaining such activity forces the body to burn more calories than usual and doing this regularly will make the body efficient at burning fat.

Exercises that focus on multi-joint exercises such as squats, lunges, split squats, push ups, chin ups and dead lifts are great at burning more calories compared to single joint exercises like bicep curls and knee extensions.

Exercising with greater intensity with weights and interval training forces the body to really exert and function with lower oxygen present in the muscles. When this occurs, the body is forced to replenish the muscles with oxygen after the activity. It continues to repair and remove waste from the muscles, even after the activity is done. As a result, the body ends up burning fat all day and night.

Therefore, a balance of healthy food choices and smart workouts really do combine to the loss of body fat resulting in getting quick, great-looking abs. - 17274
