You Are Only 60 Days From Visible Abs

By Steve R Robbins

Arms and abs. Without doubt numbers 1 and 2 on every bodies "I want to have those" list of fitness goals. With a couple relatively small changes to your current fitness routine and diet, getting those abs to show can happen much quicker than you think.

Getting your abs to show is a two part process, with one part being somewhat more critical. We all know that excess body fat is the reason that your abs don't show through. Unfortunately there is no way, regardless of claims by some midsection reducing product websites, to "spot reduce" your body fat. It is simply physically impossible for your body to know you want fat lost in a particular area first, or most. What you CAN do is employ the other process, developing your abdominal muscles more, and in conjunction with total body fat loss, this added development makes their appearance happen more quickly.

One of the biggest reasons "getting your abs to be visible" diets fail, is that after a few weeks of sincerely trying, your abs will not be showing. You won't even see a difference, though your waist line is shrinking. Frustrated, people quit, because it isn't working. But it is, IF you have not been misled, it just takes a little more time than claims some will make. Your abs will be the LAST muscles in your body to show definition, not the first. So, 60 days is a realistic time frame, depending on how overweight you are to begin with. Assuming the average person is 40 lbs overweight, you will need to lose 25 of it before your abs even begin to show. I know this because I have done it before and am 45 days into doing it again.

The 2 single biggest diet modifiers you can make to help any fat reduction plan be successful (notice I said fat reduction, NOT weight loss per se) is to totally eliminate processed carbs and ingest 0 calories in the form of liquids (except for protein based drinks other than milk. I use some of the newest muscle building supplements that are currently available to guarantee the correct content). Obviously you have to have a net daily calorie deficit going to lose any kind of weight, but fat loss is exponentially faster without these 2 calorie sources. In layman's terms that means no bread (not even whole wheat), pasta, rice, noodles, flour in any form and so on. By eliminating caloried drinks your sugar consumption plummets and the resulting sugar spikes that help induce cravings for these kinds of food is gone. So no alcohol, sports drinks, or the worst, fruit juices. Get your nutrients from food, not liquid! This helps you eat less of other kinds of food.

Developing abs will show faster than undeveloping ones, all things else equal. That's just a fact. So don't ignore training your abdominal muscles. It makes the process of fat loss a much shorter requirement. You can find all the helpful FREE weight lifting routines for this kind of ab work, beginner through advanced at MuscleandHealth.
