Perfect 10 Abs
Welcome to perfect10abs.com! There are two critical factors to carving out your six pack abs, food and exercise. Today we are going to focus on eating right.
A lot of us wait in line patiently every morning for a 4 dollar caffeine fix at a one of the many fancy coffee chains around. The surprising fact is that you end up with a calorie rich, sugar spiked, high fat concoction that is going to take away around1/3 of your daily calorie intake (on an average). A lot of places have popped up recently to satisfy Americas craving for caffeine packed calories. This takes us to our six simple steps that can help you achieve your goal (and your wallet will thank you too)
- Start healthy
- Portion changes
- Drink water
- Eat Snacks
- Complex Carbohydrates
- Cut Sugar
I cannot stress this enough; breakfast is the MOST important meal of the day. It is very important to start right. The cuts down craving for rest of the day and keeps you satisfied so lunch is not a triple cheese burger with fries and a chocolate milk shake (or worse a large soda!)
Small portion changes make a huge difference to the total amount to calories consumed. Eat 3 meals and 2 snacks a day but cutting unwanted stuff should be easy. For example, cutting out ketchup from breakfast, high calorie dressing from lunch and cutting soda from dinner will save you an approximate 500 calories. While that may not seems like much, its 3500 calories a week! That’s like eating a full extra days worth of food!
Drink plenty of water. It’s good for you. That’s it!
Healthy snacks are a great way to prevent overeating. Almonds at 3 PM with some chocolate milk will keep you from a pasta eating contest at 6PM. There are no excuses for not eating snacks. It does require a little preparation on your part, such as having these readily available. TIP: Skip the office vending machine. The chances of getting something healthy are pretty slim.
Brown rice is better than white rice and wheat bread is better than white bread. Keep this in mind and you’ll save yourself plenty of empty calories. Also, complex carbohydrates will keep you full longer so you won’t be trekking to the refrigerator at 12 AM.
This includes soda/pop, whatever you want to call it, cookies, cakes, ice cream, anything that is made up of HFCS (high fructose corn syrup). Excess sugar is basically converted to fat and stored by the body. Plus sugar spikes hunger and could potentially lead to overeating.
This should give anyone a starting point to pursue their goal of getting six pack abs. Be sure to include some of the best ab exercises in your fitness regimen to balance out your routine.
