In this post I’m going to give you some abs dieting tips that will make sure that you are getting all the nutrition you need to get a six pack. This is not a complete guide like the best six pack abs diet plan, but it will give you the tips you need to gain abdominal muscle and lose belly fat.
Eat Large Quantities Of Food
Remember the book Eat More, Weigh Less? There was some truth to the title. For several years now, Penn State University researcher Dr. Barbara Rolls, has been studying how the volume of food in a meal affects our satiety and therefore the number of calories we ingest. A concept she has termed Volumetrics.
Whey Less
Whey helps build muscle tissue, that’s old news. But, did you know that its rich leucine content also means it stimulates fatty acid oxidation (leucine also upregulates muscle protein synthesis while decreasing muscle protein breakdown). A 2006 study showed that adding 60 grams of whey protein/day, in comparison to 60 grams of soy protein or 60 grams of carbohydrate, led to significant decreases in body fat and weight after 6 months.
Whey protein has also been shown to increase satiety. Increase satiety and theoretically you should eat less later! You’ll be less hungry at least. Whether or not you eat is up to you.
Quit Boozing
If you are going to drink alcohol, at least drink wine and get a few antioxidants. But seriously, cut the alcohol.
Do you know anyone who has ripped abs and still drinks on a regular basis (and yes, weekly counts as regularly!)? No, you don’t, unless they are a genetic freak of nature. And, if you were a genetic freak of nature with naturally rock-hard abs, you probably wouldn’t be reading this article.
Eat Fatty Fish
Omega 3s are tied to a healthy heart, healthy skin, decreased depression and a variety of other benefits. They also reduce adipose tissue, most especially in the abdominal area. Studies have revealed that omega 3s upregulate the expression of genes that lead to fatty acid oxidation and decrease the development of obesity.
Drink Green Tea
Green tea extract when combined with caffeine, increases energy expenditure (calories burned). Studies have also shown that habitual green tea consumers are better able to maintain their weight.
Sticking to these abs dieting tips alongside the best abs exercises and you will begin losing belly fat and getting six pack abs fast.
