Tag: stomach fat loss

Weighing Machine The number one rule for a flat stomach is something that is seen on ever banner advertisement on every website, so it seems. These ads claim one trick or tip to instant fat loss. But what are they all on about? Is there one trick to fat loss?

Unless this one trick is to pick up a decent fat burning program and follow the program to the letter, I can’t really see one simple tip helping fat loss that much. However here is what I consider to be the “one major tip” to burning fat.

Bruce Lee himself said that nutrition is the key to getting and maintaining a tight waistline.

If there is one individual in history with a fabulous figure, it was Bruce Lee. He is still held in honor by many bodybuilders today as having one of the best physiques ever. If keeping an eye on our nutrition was good enough for him, it should be good enough for the rest of us!

This was a man who worked out constantly, doing everything from free weights to interval training, body weight exercises to full contact fighting. And he STILL claims that nutrition is important after doing a full days workout, every day. Now that is something to think about.

Recently I have been trying a new way of eating. A little more restrictive than normal. But after being pretty casual about my dietary habits and lifting weights for a while, I have decided to cut down body fat % again. I was interested in bulking up for some time, however now I am going to cut back. I am following a diet called the Cyclical Ketogenic Diet. Read the full diet/workout plan here. Now I have modified it slightly to fit my lifestyle, but part of a new diet or workout is that you adjust to suit, without compromising it.

I am attempting a major loss of fat from my body and have taken a before shot (I am terrible with cameras) and will take an after shot in 30 days and post them up in a blog post. I have been undertaking a bit of a bulk up for a couple of months by eating a lot and lifting heavy, but I have decided I want the cut six pack look back instead of bulking any more.

Nothing gets the fat melting like good hard interval training.

Interval training is something everybody should have in their workout plans. It is more efficient that typical cardio because it is far faster, it is more effective because it makes you work harder and faster causing more muscle breakdown, which increases metabolism, which burns fat :D

Now that you are positive Interval Training (or High Intensity Interval Training) is the key to fat loss, let me explain what it is.

HIIT is when you are alternating between periods of intense exercise and slow exercise with no breaks. For example, instead of going for a monotonous old run like every other joker does, try having a blast at HIIT next time you strap on your jogging shoes. This is exactly how I do it:

  1. I pick a spot where there will be nobody around. My favorite is at a school nearby that has a 400 meter running track.
  2. Hit the spot you have determined is best for your activity. I use this school because I sprint the 100 meters.
  3. After you have stretched, go for a light jog for a couple of hundred meters at alternating paces and stretch your legs. Fling them up high and down low just to make sure that you are ready as you don’t want a busted muscle or bone.
  4. Sprint the 100 meters as hard as your poor body can. Go all out. You might feel like you are going to face plant or slip backwards, but keep going. The idea is to sprint like an absolute mad man.
  5. After you cross the finish line (it can be 100, 200, 300 meters, you choose) then you lower the pace right down to a light jog. I will do a light jog back to the start of the 100 meter track, then sprint again.

When I am doing this, I like to plan out in my head how many sprints I will do BEFORE I get to the track. If I leave it till I feel buggered, then I am probably going to throw in the towel at 3 sprints, instead of 10.

There is a whole lot about intense interval training in the free fat loss and six pack abs course that is available for absolutely nothing from my website.

Until next time, sprint like Usain Bolt on Meth gettin’ chased by his Momma around Jamaica

Nobody wants a long and and boring fat loss workout to get abs. This is one of the most common excuses “I don’t have time because of ……”. Well here goes that excuse busted right in two. If you want to workout at home that is fine, body weight exercises and cardio will get you so far, but the most fat loss comes from lifting weights, that is how body builders get so toned and ripped. However your goals are up to you.

1. Do High Intensity Interval Training

Doing HIIT is like exercising on Meth! Here is an example of how to do it:

  • Warm up and stretch (doesn’t matter what exercise you do you should always warm up some how.
  • Take it easy for 1 minute (If running, just jog, if boxing, hit the bag lightly, if biking, just cruise etc), as soon as that one minute comes, go like a bat out of hell for 30 seconds. This is full on sprinting, full force punches or kicks and intense biking.  After those 30 seconds, go back to cruising mode. Repeat this for 20 minutes and you will be stuffed – guaranteed! If not, you aren’t going hard enough!

2. Do super sets in the gym

This is where you work one muscle, for example chest, on the bench press till failure. The next exercise you do will be something that also works the chest, but in a slightly different way, such as dips. Do this workout till failure too. Do this for a few body parts each time you hit the gym and you only need to spend half the time there!

3. Take 5 minutes 2x per week to work on abs

That is all you need when you are just a beginner (less than 6 months continuous training). Doing exercises such as decline or incline crunches, captains chair crunch, bicycle crunch are all hardcore workouts for the abs that will get the burn like crazy.

Keep your workouts short but intense and your diet strict and you will see faster results than steroids.
