Pack of 5 really useful tips

These 6-pack tips will help you develop chiseled abs. Now, it takes a bit of time to get ripped, but these tips will greatly minimize that time.

So, try them. I think you’ll be surprised how much they help!

1. Eat less

OK, if you want to have ‘ripped’ abs then you need to lose body fat. No one will be able to see your abs, no matter how big they are, if you have fat covering them.

And the only way to lose body fat is to eat less. That’s as simple as it gets. Nobody likes to diet, but there it is.

Once you’ve reduced your body fat enough, your muscles (especially your abs) will start to shine. You will look more muscular and sexy, even if you just lost weight.

2. Lose 1 to 1.5 pounds per week

Lose just a little bit of fat each week. Don’t go on a crazy crash diet and try to lose a ton of weight fast; you will only be harming your progress.

Why? Well, if you lose weight faster than 1 or 1.5 pounds a week, you’ll lose about half fat and half muscle after that. Which is not a good ratio; Muscle is precious like gold, and you must protect it at all costs!

Of course, this does not mean that it will take you longer to reach your goal. You will be taking the most efficient path to be marked.

3. Lift weights

Lifting weight is vitally important to getting a ripped 6 pack. Lifting weights will not only build your muscles, but it will also help you retain muscle mass when dieting and burning calories.

Now your weight training program doesn’t need to be incredibly complicated. Lift weights once or twice a week, if you work hard, that’s fine.

Oh, and for your routine, keep it simple. Don’t overdo small lifts like bicep curls and calf extensions. Break a sweat and work hard with some big lifts like squats, deadlifts, bench press, standing press, clean and press, and chin-ups.

Abdominal exercises are helpful, but only after you’ve lost most of the body fat you need to lose. That’s the time to start worrying about making your abdominal muscle bigger.

4. Tea and espresso

Green tea and coffee (especially espresso) will help you lose weight. And not for the reasons you might think.

First of all, none of these have calories. Okay, maybe if you have five shots of espresso it will be two or three, but it’s essentially zero. Which makes them so much better to drink than orange juice, milk, or triple-mocha-frapa-latte-whatever-with-three-shots-of-vanilla.

Both tea and coffee also contain caffeine, which helps mobilize fatty acids (so you can more easily burn fat for fuel) and keep you active. Again, this won’t make up for a poor diet, but it will help when combined with good eating habits.

5. Being cold

Going cold will help you lose fat. Not a ton, but some.

See, your body burns a lot of energy each day to keep you at a constant body temperature. If you’re cold, whether it’s turning down the thermostat, taking cold showers, wearing fewer layers, or drinking tons of cold water, you’ll lose weight faster.
