7 Great Secrets for Great Abs
2008-04-08 16:10:00
Here is a great article from Tom Venuto of Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle in which he teaches you how to get lean without drugs or supplements using secrets of the world’s best bodybuilders and fitness models. Read on for some great advice on how to get those GREAT ABS! Many people say that “abdominals are made in the kitchen, not in the gym,” and there’s a lot of truth to that. You can do thousands of reps of ab work every week, but if your nutrition is not in order, you can forget about getting a great set of 6-pack abs. Eat about 15-20% below your calorie maintenance level. If you use a more aggressive calorie deficit of 25-30%, then do not keep calories too low for too long; increase calories to maintenance or maintenance +10-15% 1-2 days per week. Spread your calories into 5-6 smaller meals instead of 2-3 big ones. Be very conscious of portion size. If you eat too much of anything (even “healthy” food), you can say goodbye to your abs.
