No More Belly, Baby!


flat abs
What everyone wants....a smooth flat stomach that looks sexy and toned. It's attainable for just about anyone, but you do have to put in the work.

Contrary to what many believe, crunches and ab exercises alone are not going to get you those flat abs. It's a combination of diet and exercise that gets you there. So, let's start with the diet. You know that consuming excessive fat and sugar is a no no already, right? Then, what you need to do here is to have other good, enjoyable, filling foods on hand to keep you from grabbing and snacking on the bad stuff. Here are a few things you can consume instead:


Fruits

Sugarless items and desserts made with a sugar substitute

Leaner meats

Foods and vegetables with a high fiber content that help combat hunger

Soy products

Nuts


Also, don't forget that smaller portions can go a long way in helping you shave the amount of sugar and fat you consume on a daily basis.


We all know that diet alone is not enough to get that trim, toned look. If you're tired of just doing crunches, try some of these ab toning methods for a change:


Pilates exercises

Crunches on a stability ball

Balancing exercises on a BOSU

Hanging leg lifts/raises

Plank exercises

Twists with a light weight medicine ball

Twists with a light weight body bar

Dancer's crunch (in standing position, contract abs all the way in, and then release, repeating 10 to 15 times per set


Now, to finish it all off, you need to get in that cardio. That's the best way to just melt that fat right off. In a cardio rut? Here are a few ways to go about it that you may not have tried:


Power walking

Running

Jump Rope

Step Aerobics

Zumba Classes

Kickbox Aerobics

Racquet Ball

Swimming


To insure yourself the utmost success, you need to make sure to pay attention to all aspects of a good health and fitness program. Streamline your diet, do your strength training and toning exercises, and get your cardio in at least 3 to 4 times a week. Using this simple formula, you will be sure to achieve that flat, sexy stomach that looks good both in clothes and out of them. It's not impossible! Just set your mind to it, and do it! I know you can! So, what are you waiting for? Get busy!
