Everyone wants to know how to get a tight, fit abdomen. We know it, and here we are not going to deceive you. Saying goodbye to the dreaded float is complicated, especially if you are still paying the consequences of the holidays.
Tattoo yourself this: The excesses on the plate, when they are not burned, accumulate in the abdominal area. And then come the wailing.
Losing a belly and wearing a six-pack is a great male obsession. A recent study carried out by the Allergan company reveals that 73% of men and women in Spain consider excess body fat their main aesthetic concern.
Specifically, excess fat located in specific areas of the body (abdomen and flanks) or under the chin is their first aesthetic concern and the second for women (behind cellulite).
Wearing a six-pack is possible
Although it is difficult to have a flat stomach, it is not impossible and we are going to tell you how. To start, set up an effective training plan focused on increasing spending: Running, swimming, CrossFit, or spinning (or shekel, so fashionable lately) are excellent options to mobilize the whole body and react to the fat mass in the love handles.
Regarding the frequency and duration of the sessions, experts recommend, with few exceptions, training 2 or 3 days a week for 60 minutes.
Also, program a table to follow strictly that includes all possible types of abs (high, low, oblique), without forgetting the wonderful effect of a good plank (as in the opening photo).
Upgrade the plate
The second (but more important) thing is food. Ignore outrageous, tyrannical, or express diets that will only make you lose water and not fat. Instead, focus on establishing healthy eating habits (not diet) that, combined with increased exercise, help you build a caloric deficit that helps your body pull away accumulated fat.
You don’t have to be a food guru. What’s more, surely you will know the theory perfectly but you will need to go to practice. You know: five meals a day in small quantities and well distributed, drink at least 2 liters of water, increase the consumption of vegetables and proteins, limit carbohydrates, avoid carbonated drinks.
“If you want to lose your belly, you must flee from empty calories like the plague. That is, goodbye to alcohol and excess sugar. Cut down on bad fats and refined flours.
Creams for abs
There is a third leg that helps in the six-pack strategy. It is the application of reducing creams. Unlike regular body milk, toning lotions help to locally accelerate blood flow, producing certain drainage that helps define the silhouette.
Their effect is twofold: on the one hand, they help reduce fluids and therefore help to mobilize a certain degree of fatty tissue, and on the other, they smooth the skin. Trust us: they work. Of course, to see obvious results they must be combined with the previous tips since miracles do not exist.
And how are they used? Well, as the manufacturer says. Although some people prefer to do it before training, it is recommended after exercise when the absorption capacity of the skin is greater.
In the form of application, there is no doubt: always in circular movements, massaging the area for 40 or 60 seconds with gentle pinching. Do it twice a day, morning and night.
Now choose which abdominal cream you will buy:
Burn, burn, burn
On stick
As you sleep
In bar
