Eating to Promote Your 6-Pack

If your primary goal is to reduce your overall body fat level, then your diet will play a substantial role in this, too. By targeting your nutrition, you can efficiently burn body fat which then helps to reveal your abs and give you that fantastic 6-pack look. And one you can boost with exercise. When a healthy diet is combined with the above exercise methods (HIIT and resistance training), you will start to notice results really soon.

When you have a well-designed healthy weight loss/nutrition plan, you will see there are a few essential variables to master. Here is a quick overview:

Protein:

Protein is crucial when losing fat. Research shows it can help double weight loss while still protecting the hard-earned muscle you already have.

Total Calories:

 Total calorie intake or energy balance or is also imperative. Initially, you must consume fewer calories than your body requires. This helps force it to burn your stored body fat. As a general rule for quick weight loss, I suggest you target around 11 to 12 calories per 1 lb. of overall body weight. For an individual weighing 200 lbs., this equates to 2200 – 2400 calories per day.

Scientifically Researched Supplements: 

Particular supplements can help to enhance weight loss once you have your diet and training regimen in place. Two vital supplements for quick fat loss are green tea and caffeine. Remarkably, both these work on a synergistic level to help burn body fat directly from within the stomach.

This is done by the increase in catecholamines, and it is these that can help the body to move those immovable fat deposits. Here, they release fatty acids into the bloodstream which are then burnt as fuel. To be effective, take about 500 mg of green tea with 200 mg of caffeine, two times per day, once in the morning, once in the early afternoon. This is great, as long as you have no allergies to these substances.

Carbs & Fat:

There are numerous dieting methods around, and these range from low-carb diets to carb backloading. There are also traditional high-carb and low-fat diets. All these methods can work, although it boils down to if protein intake is increased and the daily calorific consumption is reduced. With my system for the 6-Pack Formula, you will soon see excellent results.

Research has shown that low-carb diets are fantastic for the burning of belly fat and overall weight loss. However, if your protein and calorie levels are controlled, a higher carb and a low-fat diet can work just as well. Your carbohydrate and fat intakes should be based on your preferences, so you can eat what you enjoy, as long as you remain within the limits and exercise accordingly.
