Everyone wants a flat and tight stomach.  Right?  But, it is one of the most difficult things to do, especially in this country with all the processed foods, fast-food joints, and convenient food items.  And let’s be honest, belly fat is not attractive in the least, unless you are a chubby chaser. 

Being an Orange County personal trainer, the most sought after goal, is a flat and tight stomach.  And for men, that is more difficult, since the stomach area is the first place fat comes on and the last place fat comes off.  Also, there are tons of foods that contribute to belly fat.

First, you just can’t spot reduce fat.  You have to reduce your overall body fat percentage.  If you keep getting leaner, eventually all the fat on your stomach will dissappear.   Unfortunately, most people do not stick on any type of fat-loss program long enough, or the right one to see any dramatric results. 

Personal Training in Orange County, my team and I have helped hundreds of people drop fat and get amazingly tight and lean bodies.  And it is pretty simpe.  The secret is consistency and having set goals.  We do that for our clients.  Just check out the before and after below.

If you just stick to a proven program consistently and have a method to measure your progress, you will get lean enough to get that flat and tone stomach.  You just can’t quit.

Every guy I know wants six pack abs.  And women, of course they want a flat and tone stomach.  But, most people are going about all wrong.  First, it does not matter how many crunches or leg raises you do.  You simply can’t spot reduce fat.  In order for you to get six pack abs and a flat stomach, you need to decrease your overall body fat levels low enough so you can see six pack abs.

The best method is combination of whole-body workouts with weights and intelligent nutrition.  The whole body workouts will do a couple of things for you.  One, they will help you build more muscle, which in turn will increase your metabolism.  Second, the whole-body workouts will burn many more calories and leave your metabolism jamming for 24 to 48 hours afterwards.  Imagine how much fat you will burn in that time.  And three, these whole-body workouts will stimulate your own growth hormone, which is your fat burning hormone.

Next is diet.  This is a place where most falter.  People have no clue how to effectively eat to lose body fat.  First, take all the processed foods at of your diet.  What are processed foods?  Anything that has been chemically altered.  Such as anything in a box.  Second, avoid sugar and flour.  These two products will stimulate your fat-storage hormone, insulin.  You don’t want that.  Third, make sure you are eating 5 to 6 small healthy meals per day in order to stimulate your metolism.

There you go.  Follow these guidelines and I will see some lean and ripped people walking around.  Until next time, take care and keep burning the fat.

Everyone asks me what is the perfect diet to lose belly fat.  I get this question all the time.  It’s the big mystery for most people.  But, if you can find the right formula that belly fat will drop faster than ever.   When it comes to crushing belly fat and getting six pack abs, most people do all the wrong things.

First, let me put an end to some myths.  One, you can not spot reduce fat on your stomach.  You have to lose body fat uniformly throughout your entire body.  Second, ab exercises alone are not going to give you that flat stomach you so crave.  And third, no amount of supplements are going to help you lose belly fat.

Here is the reality for most people.  Most people just do not eat correctly to become lean enough to get that ripped stomach.  Thats as simple as I can put it.  Besides exercising, you will have to really fine tune your diet to get lean enough to see some abs or have a flat stomach.

Here are things you need to cut out:

-Caloric beverages, such as sodas, juices, alcohol, starbucks drinks, etc.

-Packaged meals, such as lean cuisine and Healthy Choice.  Trust me, these are not healthy.

-Saturated fats (Keep this to a minimum), such as red meat.

-Sugars and high fructorse corn syrup, which is found in most processed foods.

-Avoid processed foods.

Here are some foods that will be great to crush fat all over your body:

-lean protein such as egg whites, chicken breast, fish, turkey, whey protein, and lean meats.

-healthy complex carbs, such as oatmeal, potatoes, yams, brown rice, etc.

-fibrous vegetables, such as broccoli, asparagus, green beans.

-Some fruits.

Start including some of these foods into your daily nutrition, combined with a good exercise program, and your belly fat will dissappear in no time.

Everybody wants a beautiful set of abs. For men, it’s the rock hard six pack abs, and for women, it’s the flat and tone stomach. No matter what sex you are, there is no doubt that a nice, flat stomach is much more attractive than a bulging belly. But, how do you get that flat stomach?

There is so much hype out there, from all the over commercialized ab gadgets you see on tv the supposedly miracle fat-loss supplements. Trust me when I tell you this, you don’t need any of that crap.

I am going to shed some light on the truth to losing belly fat. There are a few things you need to know if you are ever going to have a tight and tone stomach:

1. Long, boring, and monotnous cardio is not the best way to burn body fat. In fact, with long cardio you actually can burn valuable muscle tissue, thus slowing down your metabolism and fat burning.

2. You can’t spot reduce belly fat loss. You will lose body fat all over your body uniformally. This is a big misconception. Most people think that if they do hundreds of situps and crunches they are going to get a hard, ripped stomach. NOT TRUE!

3. You need to perform whole body workouts that are going to promote muscle tone. By doing whole body workouts, you will increase your metabolic rate and help release your own body’s growth hormone, thus burning more fat. This is a must.

4. Most of those fat-loss supplements out there do not work. Stop wasting your hard earned money on those pills. What you need is just good old-fashioned nutrition.

As you can see there are a lot of myths out there concerning belly fat loss. To lose belly fat and get a six pack stomach you need to focus on lose body fat all over your body. Here is a simple plan to start losing belly fat and getting that sexy, flat stomach that everyone wants.

1. Perform whole-body workouts at least 3 times per week.

2. Use advanced anerobic cardio, such as interval training, to burn even more fat.

3. Eat a balanced diet of raw foods, approximately 30% protein, 50% carbohydrates, and 20% fat. You can make individual changes based on your activity level.

4. Avoid fast food restaurants and eating out, as there are many hidden calories in the foods you are eating. Simply put, try to avoid as much processed foods as possible. It is these processed foods that are making Americans fatter and fatter.

5. Drink plenty of water. Drinking more water will help you flush out fatty acids and toxins.

6. Avoid caloric beverages. Drinking caloric beverages is just a big wast of calories. They don’t fill you up and that is a surefire way to consume a lot of calories.

Follow these recommendations and you will start losing pounds of belly fat, on your way to a flat stomach before you know it. It does take some effort to get a tight and flat stomach. But, if you want results you have never gotten before, then you need to do things you have never done.
