Tips and Tricks to get Six Pack ABS

Eat Less
To lose weight from any area of your body, you must work in a caloric deficit. This means eating less than is required to maintain your body weight. Its approximately 500 calories less than maintenance.

Eat enough Protein
Protein will help you build lean muscle as well as burn body fat. Protein has the highest thermogenic effect on the body (the thermic effect of food is the amount of energy required to digest and process the food you eat).



Eat Carbs after Workouts
When you eat carbs after workout, they have the smallest chance of turning into body fat.

Try to eat moderate amounts of carbs and 1 or 2 cups of vegetables with each meal. This will ensure that your body gets the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber it needs to function at its peak and remain healthy.

Eat Healthy Fats
You need to include healthy fats in your diet, primarily from polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats such as raw nuts, nut butters, fish oils, and olive oils into your diet.

Fat from these sources will keep your insulin levels stable, which is very important if your goal is to lose belly fat and reveal six pack abs.

Combining lean protein with the correct types and amounts of green leafy vegetables, good carbs, and fats you will begin to super charge your metabolism and turn your body into fat burning machine.

Cut out processed Foods
Foods that have been through some sort of preservation have lost their nutrients and are really just empty, unhealthy calories. Processed foods are full of unhealthy fats, a ton of sugar or sugar substitute and synthetic vitamins and minerals. These ingredients include artificial sweeteners, artificial colors, hydrogenated oils, and high fructose corn syrup. Non food ingredients, which are considered toxins, may end up languishing in your system, often stored with fat.

Anything that's packaged is a processed good. Look for the super foods like nutrient dense, low calorie fruits and vegetables. These give the most vitamins and minerals to energize your body.

Drink Water
Water is flushing out your kidneys and entire digestive system, hydrating your body, and brain, thereby allowing your metabolism to function more effectively, and just making for a nicer skin tone and appearance, drinking more water causes you to release more water through excretion, thereby dropping "water retention". 

Lift Weights
The more muscle you have, the more fat you can burn effectively. It makes perfect sense to get stronger by lifting weights. Lifting weights, while being in a slight caloric deficit is the best combo for fat loss. Lifting heavy weights not only burns more calories during your workout but may also increase your metabolism.

Use Cardio Workouts
Mix of High Intensity Interval Training and Steady State Sessions, two to four times per week, depending on how much excess weight you have to lose. Whenever possible, do the aerobic workouts in the morning on an empty stomach to burn more fat. Separate these workouts as much as you can from weight training sessions. So, if you plan to lift on the same day, do cardio in the morning and lift that evening.

Train your ABS
To sculpt a six pack you need to develop the core muscles that are responsible for the shape of the abs.

Compound exercises like squat and deadlift necessitate more recovery than isolation movements like the biceps curl or side raise.

Abs can take more of a damage than the larger muscle groups. Therefore it's necessary to put more work in your abs workout than usual.
