Flat ab February End Results

As promised I will share with you my secrets to a flat tummy. This month I solely focused on getting my six pack back... funny thing is I did not perform 1 crunch. That's right, you heard me. My results were solely from nutrition factors. Switching up my diet && continuing my workout plan I have been on. So here are ten things I changed this month to get my abs back.

1) I carried around a 32oz water bottle with me all day && drank 32 ounces 8 times a day
2) Started my day with a glass of green tea & ended it with a glass of green tea
3) started paying attention to my fiber intake & went from not even 15g a day to 30g a day
4) ate every 2 hours
5) I am an extremely picky eater (especially when it comes to vegetables) so I tried a new vegetable each week & was surprised to find out that I love zucchini! So now I make vegetables a snack
6) cardio! I started doing empty stomach cardio one day a week as soon as I wake up to blast that tummy fat
7) PORTION control.. paid attention to what a serving size was and stuck to that... though for a couple days I was starving my stomach got used to it.. Also all my meals had to fit in a 4x4 to go box
8) Workout routine: I've been sticking to Chalean Extreme & lifting heavy weights
9) went from two cheat days a week to one every two weeks!
10) started a stretching routine I do before bed every night (specifically targeting the core)

Six weeks to 6-Pack Abs

There are no excuses!!! Moms can have abs too. The past six weeks I have been doing the Chalean Extreme Workout program & could not be more pleased with my results thus far. I am halfway through & so far this is my favorite workout routine! I never really realized how heavy I could actually lift... & since I've started lifting heavy I've been getting leaner. Yes ladies.. I am SMALLER by lifting heavy weights.. no bulk here. Not to mention my abs are starting to show through from just one ab workout a week! This is my soul mate workout.

I get the most compliments on my abs... especially from moms wondering how I did it after having a baby. Well you all know I did P90X after having my son.... but I did not do the ab workouts. I honestly HATE working my abs. Instead I added extra balance challenges to each exercise that would make me work harder to keep my core stable. Between that & lots of cardio I got my 6 pack back! Plus when working with new Moms our abdominal muscles are not connected like they used to be pre-pregnancy. So doing some of the typical "ab workouts" can make things worse rather than better.

So no ab workouts for me. Crazy huh? We are all used to going to the gym each day doing 100s of sit ups & working our abs to death on all these machines... Which is great... but that is only building the muscles!!! You need to burn the fat off that is covering those puppies! Which can easily be done through clean eating & like I mentioned earlier... CARDIO!  Now don't get me wrong... having an ab routine is awesome. Personally though I don't feel the need to work my abs out all too often & what I do works for me. If you are one of those people who love working your abs make it a split routine... work them 2-3 times a week. If you over do it you can get into what is called "overtraining" & you will not see results. 

Now just because I personally don't work my abs out all that often doesn't mean I don't have awesome flat ab tricks & tips. But it surprises a lot of people that I have the stomach I do without much effort (in the gym that is). Stay tuned all month long to find out exactly how I get & keep my flat abs.
