6-pack abs is everybody’s dream. Fortunately, this dream can be easily brought into reality.
No matter what age group you belong to, you can look great and have a flat tummy.
If you are in your 20s
You are still young and your body is strong and full of energy. You can spend a night out having fun at a disco club enjoying your favorite foods and drinks. At this wonderful age your body is capable of using the calories you consume because your metabolism is very high. You do not need to do too much or put effort to look good. Those young people who keep track of their diet and exercise achieve fantastic results. If you are not into sports all you need to do to have a flat tummy now is to watch what you eat and consume less junk food, alcohol and refined sugars found in cookies and candy. Complex carbs are fine and can be foods such as pasta and rice.
Recommended: Pilates or yoga to maintain your endurance and strength. No special effort is required.
If you are in your 30s
Now it is the right time to start to take some more care of yourself. The main aspect to pay attention to is your menu. Make sure that you eat plenty of vegetables. Lean protein such as turkey, chicken, fish and low-fat cottage cheese is preferred. Avoid refined sugars, because at this age your body will store them as fat. Get rid of unhealthy snacks. If you want to have a slim waist, substitute candies and biscuits with fruit. It is wise to regularly take fish-oil supplements. Taking multi-vitamins won’t do harm either.
Recommended: Most of those who used to be quite active at their 20s and did sports stop exercising when they reach their 30s. This is when people become responsible for a variety of different things in their life. They are supposed to make money, support their families and raise children. They have less time to work out yet their eating habits do not change. The only way out is to eat healthy and join a gym. You can also exercise at home. Here the most important thing is to do sports on a regular basis. At this age it is not yet too late and you can do a lot to look fit and trim although some effort is required.
