5 Tips To A Flat Stomach And Rock Hard Abs

I want to give you 5 weird tips you might not know when it comes to getting a flat stomach and firm abs.



#1 - The best interval training work-to-rest ratio for losing belly fat might be 1-to-1.5.

In an Australian study, researchers found that doing intervals for 8 seconds followed by 12 seconds of rest resulted in significantly more belly fat burning than long slow cardio.

Now I know that 8 seconds on and 12 seconds off sounds a little annoying (just try doing that on a machine), but the good news is that these researchers found that going for 24 seconds followed by a 36 second rest works just as well for boosting fat burning hormones.

#2 - Dr. Chris Mohr's #1 weird diet tip is...

I just finished up a 2-part fat loss nutrition interview with Dr. Mohr and he told me that his simple, yet slightly weird #1 diet tip for fat loss is...

"Get almost all of your carbohydrates from fruits and vegetables."

I really liked that tip because I've been telling people this for years, and it's part of the Fat Loss Foundation you'll discover as part of the Simple Nutrition manual in the TT Abs package here:

====> Turbulence Training For Abs

Oh, and here's my weird blender drink recipe I mentioned earlier...

The Supercharged Strawberry-Banana blender drink:

1 ripe banana, frozen strawberries, spinach, flax oil (trust me, you can't taste the spinach OR the flax seed oil), cashew butter, chocolate vegetarian protein powder, and almond milk.

It was one of the best recipes I've made in a while.

#3 - You need to be able to do a Plank exercise for 2 minutes.

Dr. Stuart McGill, the world's leading expert on low back health, says in his book that a person with fit abs should be able to do a plank exercise for 2 minutes straight.

If you can't do the plank for 2 minutes, then you need to lose belly fat and you need to get a program that works your abs properly.

The best program for you is the follow-along Turbulence Training for Abs DVDs here:

=====> Turbulence Training For Abs

(You'll also get the Simple Nutrition Manual & DVD as a bonus and you'll save big bucks on the DVDs until Wednesday night.)

#4 - New research shows that supersets training burns more calories than traditional straight set resistance training.

And that's exactly what you'll get in every Turbulence Training workout, including the TT for Abs DVDS.

The TT programs save you time (getting you done in half the time of a traditional resistance workout) while helping you burn more fat.

#5 - To see your abs, a man will need to be close to 10% fat and a woman will need to be at about 16% fat.

Of course, the more muscle you have, the easier it will be too see your abs, so you'll still be able to see a 4-pack on muscular guys when they have 12-13% fat.

But the bottom line is that you need to use the Simple Nutrition plan combined with the Turbulence Training for Abs workouts to burn belly fat to see your sexy abs.

BONUS Tip - A great way to work your abs harder than normal planks  is the Stability Ball Plank.

Research reported in Men's Health magazine reported this exercise to be 30% harder on your abs than a regular plank.

And last Friday I used an interesting technique with this exercise that caused my abs to be sore for days. I'll tell you all about it tomorrow.

6 Pack Abs: Fat Burning Workouts To See Your Abs

You hear so much today about core workouts for fat burning these days, but I don't think people really get it. Doing "core exercises" on a BOSU ball is a waste of time if you can't do the exercise properly standing on a flat floor. This misinformation has taken us in the wrong direction to get 6 pack abs.

Instead, there is a much better way to do core workouts for fat burning that don't involve circus tricks, and that is to use a variety of total-body, multi-muscle movements and total-body ab exercises. In fact, we won't even refer to "core training" or "core workouts" any longer, because I don't think "core exercises" is a scientific term.

Instead of using "core workouts", we're going to focus on total body fat burning workouts and exercises that focus on the upper torso and also use the legs. Plus, we're not going to do any crunches. In fact, you can have a workout that is completely free of both cardio and crunches and you can still get great 6-pack abs and fat burning results. I believe you actually need to remove cardio and crunches from your workout program if you want to get fast results, because both of those (so called) fat burning exercise techniques are a waste of your time.

In a fat burning workout, you should always start with a bodyweight warm-up that includes exercises for your lower body, upper body, and torso. Fortunately, by choosing the right exercises - rather than using core exercises that include BOSU balls and the like - you can warm-up your body in as little as two movements.

For example, if you used the Prisoner Squat and Elevated Pushup, you would work your lower body and upper back (Prisoner Squat) and your upper body and torso (Elevated Pushups). That's all you need to get your muscles prepared for the upcoming total-body supersets.

After the warm-up, you should do resistance training for fat burning. This takes only 10-20 minutes because you are choosing the right fat burning exercises, and again you skip the BOSU ball circus exercises for your "core". Forget about the stuff and stick to the basics. If you are doing a dumbbell workout, use a dumbbell split squat and decline pushup as your first superset. Your abs will have to work really hard in both calorie-burning exercises to maintain proper position and posture.

After that superset, use dumbbell rows (a powerful core exercise if there ever was one!) and stability ball leg curls to work the back of the legs. You can then finish the core of your workout with a 3rd superset featuring X-body mountain climber and side planks, two of the best so-called "core exercises" for your obliques. If you want to get those sexy muscles that tuck into your waistband, go with these ab exercise superset for fat loss. It's powerful stuff.

To finish off your fat burning workout, use interval training instead of long, slow boring cardio. Your abs will work harder doing the heavy breathing of the interval training, and you will get more results in less time, because you only need to do half the exercise time when using interval training. Research shows you'll get more fat burning results doing only 20 minutes of interval training compared to the results you get doing 40 minutes of cardio.

If you stick to this type of fat loss program, using only total-body fat burning exercises and interval training, and forgetting about crunches and cardio, you will lose fat fast.

Six Pack Abs What They Are And How They Work

Six Pack Abs What Where How?


If you ask most men and women what one of thier main fitness goal is, it would be to have lean, flat rock hard six pack abs – it looks just like a washboard, and it’s something most people strive to have, but few know how to get them. Six pack abs are muscles that go from your chest to your pelvic region.

The muscle runs flat and there are some tendons that crisscross over the muscle, which make it all separate and appear as a washboard effect. The muscle helps with any movement in your body that’s associated with your core, so it pays to strengthen the muscle for more than just aesthetic reasons.

You also have oblique muscles that are both external and internal and attached to your ribs. The external ones are diagonal in your body and the internal ones appear at a right angle to them. They’re there to provide extra support for your body.

The abdominis is another muscle hiding under the layers of belly fat that you may currently be fighting. It helps support the abdominal wall and helps with your core strength.

Knowing what your ab muscles are helps you to train them more efficiently. You can first work on burning the layers of fat off of your torso so that your ab muscles have the potential to show up. By using workouts made up of total body fat burning exercises (Squats, Deadlifts, Rows, Pullups, Clean and Press etc.) focusing your efforts on more effective full body exercises that stimulate a much greater fat-burning and muscle building hormonal response, burn more calories, stimulate the metabolism to a higher extent, and also indirectly work the abs to a decent degree anyway, is what will have that extra body fat off quick. plus you might be surprised how much work your core and abs get by using these total body fat burning exercises.

After losing your extra body fat then you can start doing some ab specific exercises in your workouts for defining your abs so that you will have that six pack abs look. Start with simple exercises like reverse crunches, rollouts etc, but don't over do it twice a week is plenty remember what I said about the ab work you get from the total body fat burning exercises? Over time, you’ll see your abs become stronger and you won’t be afraid to take off your shirt and let others see those six pack abs you’ve worked so hard to achieve.
