So What's The Best Way To lose that excess stomach fat and get rock hard abs?
Build Muscle. Plain and Simple. The more muscle you have the more fat you burn. Now when I say build muscle I'm not talking about huge pro bodybuilder muscles.
I'm going to give you 3 tips to start building lean muscle, lose your stomach fat, have low body fat and get rock hard abs.
1. 95% of the exercises you use in your workouts should be compound exercises. It doesn't matter if your goal is to build muscle or lose fat.
*upper body - bench press, pushups, dips, rows 1-arm dumbbell rows, seated cable rows, bent over barbell rows, pullups, chinup, overhead dumbbell and barbell presses, barbell or kettlebell clean & presses
*Lower Body - front squats, back squats, overhead squats, bodyweight squats, regular deadlifts, sumo deadlifts, Romanian deadlifts, lunges, step-ups, jump lunges.
*Core and Ab exercises (important, but are 2nd priority, abs and core will be worked with the compound exercises). You might be surprised how much work your abs get during a set of front squats.
The other 5% of your exercises can focus on single joint exercises (isolation exercises). These exercises are only accessory exercises.
2. Train hard and intensely 3-4 days/week for 45-60 minutes per workout. Max workout time is 60 minutes (45 would be best) as training too much beyond this point can trigger excess catabolism. You want to stay anabolic, but you still need to train your body hard and intensely enough to build muscle and lose fat.
Try a super-set workout to maximize the intensity. My favorite combinations are opposing upper and lower body exercises, such as squats coupled with pullups as a superset, or bench press coupled with bent over rows.
Don't underestimate the effectiveness of these types of workouts done with heavy weights and a high intensity. The first time in my life that I experienced significant muscle gains were when I started doing these types of workouts.
These are mainstays of almost any effective workout adjust caloric intake whether your goal is fat burning or to build muscle.
3. Eat clean (the real key to losing stomach fat and getting rock hard abs) with quality whole foods. REAL foods instead of highly processed over-hyped supplement powders and bars.
The quality of protein (and additional nutrition from vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants) are best assimilated by the body from real whole foods. Instead of from processed protein powders, chemical-laden bars, and meal replacements.
