When it comes to getting a flat stomach and getting visible 6 pack abs, many of us find it very hard to accomplish this or even come close to getting the results that we want.
The problem is that for about 90% of us, when we begin an abdominal program in order to flatten our stomach or get a visible 6 pack is that we often mix up the process and jump right into the exercise portion and pay very little to no attention to the diet portion of the abdominal program.
In order to get that toned flat stomach or that ripped 6 pack abs, instead of making a bee line to the exercise equipment you must first concentrate on getting rid of that layer of fat that sits on top of your abdominal muscles.
This layer of fat accounts for 99% of the reason why most people will never be able to get a visible 6 pack or a sexy toned looking stomach.
Diet is about 80% of the process of burning off that embarrassing pain in the butt fat on your stomach.
It is crucial that you consume meals containing healthy foods that will maximize your body's ability to burn fat and calories.
Instead of consuming these meals in bigger portions 3 times a day you would consume 6 smaller meals per day, this will keep your metabolism burning.
Exercise is the second part of the equation when it comes to burning the fat on your stomach as well as building your abdominal muscles.
Now most of us focus on situps, crunches, leg raises and so on.
These exercises are useless when it comes to maximizing the fat that your body can burn.
In order to maximize your body's fat burning potential while strengthening the core muscles of your stomach you will need to incorporate exercises that focus on compound movements.
These kinds of exercises work multiple large muscle groups all at one time.
The more muscles being worked at once means the more calories that are being burned at one time.
