Six Pack Ab Myth

Don’t Believe The Muffin Top Myth

There is one thing that irks me; it’s seeing people led off target by the Muffin Top Myth.

These well-meaning folks devote time and effort under a faulty premise that gets them zero results.

 

The more you put your valuable time and energy into a fitness program; you deserve to see nothing less than incredible results.  Therefore, that’s my commitment to all of my clients.

 

I get upset when I see people working hard without getting any result, and achieving their goals.
So what’s this Muffin Top Myth?

 

The belief that doing a magical ab exercise will get your tummy flatter, shrink your waist, and will get rid of your muffin top.

 

I’m sorry to tell you but there is no such magical ab exercise.

 

If you will continue with your unhealthy life style, the ab exercises will not make your muffin top any smaller.

If you want to shrink your belly, you need to improve on your diet and exercising routine to support fat loss from your entire body, including—but not limited to—your midsection.

This is some tip for you to get rid of your muffin top
Shrink Your Belly Tip #1: Stop Eating Processed Foods

Everyone loves a good shortcut, right? Depends on where that shortcut takes you.

From now on I want you to think of processed foods as a shortcut to belly fat.

I wouldn’t be surprised if future studies prove that the over-processing, chemical additives and high fructose corn syrup that are pumped into processed foods specifically adds fat around your belly.

If you want to shrink your belly then stay away from sugars, sodas, chemically altered fats, processed, packaged, fried and preserved foods.

Shrink Your Belly Tip #2: Eat Fresh, Whole Foods

Once you’ve cut the processed foods out of your diet, fill in the space with lots of fresh foods like:

  • Green vegetables
  • Whole, organic, seasonal fruits
  • Lean, hormone-free, high quality meats
  • Colorful organic veggies
  • Nuts and seeds

I know this list of foods may seem boring at first, but if you stick with it long enough, you’ll grow to love the tantalizing flavors of real food. Moreover, you will come up with your own healthy recipes.

When your diet is filled with healthy foods that are listed above, your body will quickly shed pounds and lean out.

Shrink Your Belly Tip #3: Do Challenging Exercise

One of best way to lose your muffin top forever is with a consistent, progressive exercise program.

  • Consistent: You should be exercising 3-5 times each week.
  • Progressive: For truly awesome results, keep your body guessing with new exercises and increasing intensity.

My exercise programs are specifically crafted to get you into the best shape of your life. I’m passionate about achieving you goals and helping you with your diet plan.

Killer Ab Exercises

Real crunches won’t reduce your body fat, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t strengthen your abdominal muscles. Steady ab exercises are an essential part of a well balanced exercise routine. Try these killer ab exercise:

  • Plank: Lie face down on mat resting on your forearms, palms flat on the floor. Push off the floor, raising up onto your toes and resting on your elbows. Keep your back flat, in a straight line from head to heels. Tilt your pelvis and contract your abdominals to prevent your rear end from sticking up in the air or sagging in the middle. Hold for 30 to 60 seconds, lower to the start position and repeat for 3-5 reps.
  • Knee Tucks: Start on your back, bend your knees with your feet on the floor and knees touching. Extend both arms overhead on either side of your ears, palms facing up. Exhale and bring your knees up towards your chest. Slowly lower your hips back down to start position. Repeat for 12-15 reps.
  • One-Armed Full Sit Ups: Start on your back with your right knee bent, foot flat on the floor, and left leg extended straight out. Extend your right arm to the ceiling and reach your left arm towards your left foot. Sit all the way up, rolling through your back, keeping your right foot on the floor, and your right arm up over your shoulder and your left arm reaching in front of you all the way up. Slowly roll back down to the floor. That’s one rep. Repeat 15 times on one side, 15 times on the other. For an extra challenge hold a dumbbell in your extended arm.
