Discover Tips on How To Get Toned Abs

Your success starts with what you put in your mouth…before I get into my rules I need to immediately debunk the myth that a calorie is a calorie. The human body is more complex than that and you must appreciate the differences.

100 calories of lucky charms is NOT the same as
100 calories of broccoli!!

The food that you eat is the foundation of every successful set of toned six pack abs (or even 8 pack abs!).
Contrary to what many believe, it’s even possible to add some lean muscle while getting leaner…..
but again, nutrition is 60% of the battle.

If you are interested in a complete kick ass rapid fat loss program then I highly recomment Joel Marion’s Xtreme Fat Loss Diet. You can find my video review of the Xtreme Fat Loss program here.

Food is a drug.
Lucky charms cereal and Broccoli give two completely
different metabolic and hormonal responses!

Now that I have (hopefully) stressed the importance of your diet, it’s time to talk about fat burning! .

Using cardio exercise as your primary strategy with lack of proper nutrition to get toned and defined abs
will back fire and leave you skinny from muscle loss, flabby and weak!

You must combine an effective meal plan, a well balanced strength training routine and effective metabolic cardio activity. Enough lean protein and a well balanced strength training routine will allow you to maintain your precious calorie burning lean muscle.
