Six Pack Abs

Unsaturated fats

Since the 1950’s, plant-based unsaturated fats have become the answer of the food industry and government to our health problems. Why then have these problems only increased since that time? Let’s first look at the financial benefits to using unsaturated vegetable fats versus saturated fats like butter. Take a cookie, for example. Butter comes from cows and cows cost money. More money than having a field of sun flowers or corn from which you can press oil. Butter also has a shorter sell-by date. That’s why cookies are no longer made from butter. You will often find the very vague description ‘vegetable fats’ on the label, meaning they chose the cheapest unsaturated fat available at the time.

Cholesterol

Being afraid of high cholesterol is totally unnecessary. In Japan, high cholesterol is seen as a sign of health! Have you seen the health of these people? Why is cholesterol okay in their book but not ours? Once again we need to turn to that single one-sided study done by Ancel Keys in the early 1950’s. We learned to measure cholesterol and divided it up into ‘good’ cholesterol (HDL) and ‘bad’ cholesterol (LDL). Again an entire industry has been based on this, not just the food industry but also the pharmaceutical industry which tells us that their highly dangerous statins (cholesterol-lowering drugs) lower the ‘bad’ LDL cholesterol and up the ‘good’ HDL cholesterol.

I often get asked to write down some basic rules of what to eat and what not to eat. There’s a lot of information out there but it’s often fragmented and, even worse, contradictory. All I can do is give you my vision on fatal and vital foods. I base this on nothing but common sense. Here goes.

I know that all of the elliptical and treadmill worshipers are probably fuming at me now after that article headline, but the fact is, ellipticals and treadmills are one of the least effective methods of working out in existence. With this article, I’ll show you how to get a much more effective fat-burning workout without wasting time mindlessly exercising on a boring elliptical machine or treadmill.

Eating food is something I believe everyone loves to do. If you do not like eating food then you are not human! Food though is not always good for you. Some food that you put into your body is actually harming your body and you don’t want that. You want to make sure that all the food that you are putting into your body is going to be good and healthy for you. The ways that you can make sure that the food is going to be healthy for you is by looking at the nutrition on the packages, also eat as many fruits and vegetables as possible and make sure that you use the food pyramid as a guide.

How do I get six pack abs?

This is perhaps one of the most asked questions by both men and women alike in the health and fitness industry. Six pack abs are a highly desirable feature of any person’s body, but when trying to achieve six pack abs, the majority seems to go about it the wrong way.

They are usually fed the wrong information. They are led to believe that exercise is the key to getting six pack abs, and while it is a huge factor, more important is diet and nutrition.

There has been so much confusion about the topic of good carbohydrates and bad carbohydrates in recent years… I wanted to help clear up some of that confusion for you and set you on a clearer path to lifelong fat loss success and healthier eating.

First of all, although I am not a “low carb” believer (I certainly don’t think extremely low carbohydrate diets are healthy), I do believe that one of the main reasons that the vast majority of people struggle to ever lose weight is that they are over-consuming processed refined carbohydrates such as pasta, bagels, breads, cereals, rice, muffins, sodas, juices, candies, crackers, etc.

The abdominals are probably the most popular muscles group because countless people are obsessed with having a flat stomach. Unfortunately, this muscle group has also raised numerous false abdominal beliefs throughout the years.

The normal human abdominal muscles form a rounded shape. Factors such as individual body type, age and gender could affect the shape and size of one’s abdomen. For this reason, it is physiologically impossible for a person to have a flat stomach.

Although an abdominal exercise could really tone your ab muscles, it does not necessarily mean that it also reduces the fat around its area. The fat surrounding the abdominal muscles will remain unless you burn more calories than your daily calorie intake.

As a fitness freak, I’m always amazed (and puzzled) with the conflict people seem to have with losing weight, yet they refuse to stop eating junk food. An interesting thing I have noticed that almost every single person that has told me that they are “attempting” to lose weight, almost always has their house filled with all sorts of junk food instead of whole unprocessed natural food.

It is not uncommon for people to tell me that they are trying really hard to lose weight, but I will still notice boxes of apple jacks and fruity pebbles on their counters, cakes, candies, and chips in their cupboard, and sodas or syrupy juices in their refrigerator.
