Beach, summer, sea side – comming soon. But are your abs ready for that?
If you have fat belly – mostly this is a sign that you are living an unhealthy lifestyle. And I hope you aren’t proud of it! So – lets transform you fat belly to a sexy, flat belly.. Ok?
This means – a brand new lifestyle! And the first thing to do is to change your habits. Next time when someone asks you “What is junk food?”, I want you to proudly say ”I don’t know!” – forget fast food and snacks! You can cook a dinner in 5 minutes – everyone can afford 5 minutes…
So the next thing – get a diet plan. Not only get, but follow it! Do as it is said there – don’t cheat yourself here… and don’t be pessimistic – this will make the whole thing a lot harder.
And to be perfectly clear – diet is not eating! Diet is eating the right things at the right time. If you won’t eat you won’t lose weight, and you can even get some diseases. To lose weight you need energy, and humans do not get energy from petroleum or electricity, humans get energy from food! So stay energized in the right proportions!
I just gave you some basic directions but you will need to research this even more to be a successive flat belly owner!
But hey! Who said that it is really hard to get ripped six pack? It is not. You must have the right attitude only. And if you will have the right way thinking, you will get your abs in no time and with fun! Let’s go!
So you have a layer of fat that covers your abs, you say? Hey don’t get sad, this means that you already have a six pack! You only need to get that fat off and you will be that sexy individual with dozens of girls (or boys) surrounding you! Diet is what you need my friend!
Calories.. Heard of them? I’m sure you have! If you burn 3500 calories you burn 1 pound of fat. So this is what we do – we will cut down the daily calorie intake and pump up the protein intake. In fact we will stay away from foods with highly refined sugar and saturated fat, fiber up your diet, and drink lots of water. Add lots of cardio exercises and guess what will you see after some time? – Your long dreamed SIX PACK!
Ok, now that you have get rid of that fatty-fat, you should now concentrate more on developing your abs a bit. Sure you have abs, but don’t you want them more sexy and attractive?! I`m sure you do! So I will list down some exercises for you.. remember – it’s fun, fun to perform and even more fun to have that tight and sexy six pack abs! So the exercises you should perform in you abs developing process -crunches, reverse crunches, knee raises, side leg raises, side crunches, back extensions. Do them every other day 4-5 sets with 15-20 reps and you will succeed!
But be patient! Stay focused, because you can’t get perfect abs in a month… focus on your goal and time will not matter! You will feel more confident with every day passing! You will succeed more and more because of your confidence! Just believe in yourself… do it for yourself and only for yourself, because you are the special individual with the great potential in life – you are the one who can do everything you want!

This is definitely possible, and you can even achieve it sooner if you get the right workout and diet plan.
You are skinny, but you want to build muscle.
That means 2 primary things:
#1 – You need to lift weights
#2 – You need to eat more protein and calories
Also, I have some bad news for you.
Running cross country and track actually hurts your chances of building muscle. Long sessions of cardio prevent ideal muscle growth.
If you want an example, compare the bodies of sprinters to those of the distance track runners. Shorter, more intense cardio is better for muscle growth.
So what about you?
You need to start eating more. Ideally, more protein shakes/bars as well as weight-gainer shakes/bars. Honestly, with the all the lifting and running you’ll be doing, you should be trying to stuff your face all day long! The more calories the better!
As for weight training, you need to focus more on lifting heavy.
Find weights you can only do about 5-8 reps of, and try sticking to no more than 3-4 sets.
Stick to just a few of the main muscle-building moves like:
-bench press
-squat
-military press
-row
-deadlift
If you put it all together, you can achieve your goals.
But for you, I recommend just lifting and eating and lifting and eating and you will be ripped!
Good luck!!
