The Abs Diet Does Not Work In Isolation
Readers, take note: The abs diet does not work in isolation. To successfully attain six pack abs, we must commit to a lifestyle change that encompasses a healthy eating habit, daily physical activity, and relaxation techniques to lower life stress.
A variety of diets exist out there, but the key to a successful diet is still one that does not encourage deprivation, but rather a diet that focuses on intelligent choices and reduced intake. The more you starve yourself, the more your body goes into emergency mode, leading to greater fat storage around the stomach area and less fat used as energy to prepare for the emergency.
Consuming a healthy diet that is controlled in calories allows our body to immediately burn those calories, as well as, start burning excess fat to fuel our body's energy requirements. In addition, eating frequent, but smaller- portion meals in a day helps burn more calories from digesting these meals and also stabilizes our blood sugar and energy levels resulting in lower food consumption.
Ideally, daily physical activity should include interval and resistance training to raise our metabolism. The energy bursts from interval training maximizes fat burning by keeping the body in "ready" and active mode. The resulting muscles we build from training now requires more energy to maintain, thus, more excess body fat can be tapped as fuel.
An increased metabolism also means harder working muscles, which again, use up more fuel. Our body now becomes more efficient at collecting whatever fuel it can find as an energy source, usually getting it from excess fat stores.
Stress is another factor that we need to reduce in our lives. When our body is in a stressful situation, it reacts by releasing the Cortisol hormone that stores fat in our stomach area. Relaxation activities such as yoga, meditation, deep breathing and learning to cope with stress have all been effective at reducing stress levels.
There is no ab diet that will get us ripped abs. Instead of dieting, choosing exercise, watching what we eat, reducing stress from our lives will get quicker longer lasting results, which will give us the six pack abs that we want. - 17269
