6 Minute Abs Workout To Lose Stomach Fat2 Comments

Topics: Abs Exercise

 

Shhhh!  I've got a secret to share with you.  You can't really lose stomach fat by doing an "abs workout."  But you're smart.  I'm sure you already knew that if you're an avid reader of my blog and newsletters. :)

But I do have some good news.  Provided that you eat the way I teach you to eat (read: single ingredient, unprocessed foods) and you workout the way I tell you (weight based interval training, sprint intervals, etc)., an abs workout like I have below will go a long way in helping to define your stomach after you lose the stomach fat.

I would do the following 6 minute abs workout as a finisher…either after a weight based interval training/bootcamp workour or after your sprints.

In this abs workout, there are 6 exercises.  Please perform each one for 30 seconds, and immediately go to the next exercise.  You'll do 2 rounds of this abs workout, clock never stops.

The movements:

Plank Jack

Spiderman Plank

Mountain Scissors

Rock and Rock Plank

Diagonal Spiderman Plank

Diagonal Mountain Jumpers

2 rounds

Check out the video below for a demonstration of the abs workout.  And then try it out and let me know how it goes.

Vermont Fitness Adventure – 2011 AgendaNo Comments »

Topics: Abs Exercise

 

Trip Overview:

Revel in the color palette of New England’s fall foliage as we explore the lofty mountains, babbling brooks, pastoral farms and quaint villages that characterize Vermont. Get ready to mix it up with hiking in the forests, biking quiet roads past classic New England farms, world-class bootcamps and canoeing through ample offerings of autumn color.

2011 Vermont Fitness Adventure Agenda

 

Day 1 (Monday) Everyone arrives today by 1:00 and we kick off the afternoon with a spectacular hike on Moss Glen Falls Trail.  This is the perfect hike to get us acclimated to the Vermont surroundings and we are rewarded with breathtaking waterfalls at the top.  After the hike, we stop at The Cold Hollow Cider Mill, one of the top producers of fresh apple cider in all of New England and one of the very few that press year-round.  Here cider is still made the old fashioned way, with a rack and cloth press built in the 1920s. We'll relax in the evening with a home cooked meal and get to know our new friends better.
Day 2 We kick today off with a fat scorching bootcamp class with panoramic mountain views.  After a home cooked breakfast, we continue our morning of fitness fun with a relaxing yoga class, to make sure we train not only the body, but also the mind.  In the afternoon, we'll hike Lake Mansfield Trail. At the trailhead, there is a beautiful view of a large glacial cirque (a rounded "scooped-out" valley). The trail follows an old logging road for awhile before crossing a brook and ascending to the Long Trail. This is an awesome hike, with good views along the trail, beaver dams and a waterfall. Guaranteed to be non-stop excitement.  After a homemade dinner, we'll relax with an inspirational movie.

Day 3 kicks off with another fat blasting, heart pumping bootcamp class.  After a delicious home cooked breakfast, prepare yourself, because it’s all about the bike:
Weave through a landscape of farms, wooded mountains and pastures dotted with black-and-white Holstein cows. Our route climbs steeply to Bragg Farm Sugar House, the only sugar house in the area to still use buckets for collecting sap. After tasting maple syrup to your heart’s content, hop back on your bike and head out on tranquil dirt roads. Ascend slowly to Lake Elmore, where we enjoy a picnic lunch along the colorful shore before continuing to the lovely town of Stowe. For more miles, set out on the longer option over rolling hills, through stunning scenery and on some dirt-packed roads, meeting up with the group in Stowe.  After a delicious and well deserved home cooked meal, we'll relax on a moonlit walk.

Day 4 We begin with a calorie scorching bootcamp class with gorgeous views of the mountains of Stowe, which is known as the Aspen of the East.. After a hearty, homemade breakfast, we’ll hike the Waterbury Trail on Hunger Mountain.  This is a really nice hike because of the lack of development. Hunger has views of the Green Mountains to the west and Groton State Forest and the White Mountains of New Hampshire to the east.  And along the way, there is some spots where you can cool off with a babbling brook.  In the afternoon, This afternoon we canoe or kayak (at your option) the gentle Lamoille River through rolling farmlands with plenty of fall color and distant views of Mt. Mansfield.  Great blue herons, beaver, otter, kingfishers and hawks may be observed during our two hour paddle. After a home cooked dinner, we'll relax with a inspirational movie.

We start off Day 5 with a rapid fat loss bootcamp class.  After breakfast, we'll hike Stowe Pinnacle and Hogback Mountain Trail. The Stowe Pinnacle Trail is relatively short but steep, with a bald open summit from which you can see the Green Mountains to the west (including Camel’s Hump, the Bolton Range, the Nebraska Notch, Mt. Mansfield and the Sterling Mountain Range) and the Worcester Range.  After lunch we'll relax our mind and body with one final yoga class.  We’ll then head out to Stowe Village for some sightseeing and shopping as we explore the local flavor of the town.  We’ll even stop in Waterbury at Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream Factory, Vermont’s leading tourist attraction.  After a brief video and tour of the factory, we treat ourselves. We'll arrive back to the lodge in time for a healthy cooking class as we learn how to prepare a very healthy, and delicious dinner.  We'll unwind with a moonlit walk.

Day 6 is our final day.  We'll have one more fat blasting, heart pumping bootcamp class.  After breakfast we'll gather around as a group, review the trip, and set some new fitness goals to work on after we arrive home.  We'll depart around noon.

My 5 Favorite SupplementsNo Comments »

Topics: Abs Nutrition

 

So, I'm on a really awesome eating plan right now which
I started one week ago today.

I've even kept my food log on Facebook the last 7 days.

I love it when my diet is really dialed in.  I can already notice
how much better I feel and how lean my abs are getting
again.

Today I want to share with you my 5 favorite supplements
that I'm taking and why I'm taking them.

1) Krill Oil – Gives me quality Omega-3's that my body needs
and has 47 times the antioxidant power than regular fish oil

2) Whey Protein – protein helps to build lean muscle which
boosts metabolism.  It also keeps you full and satisfied.
Since eating a protein at every meal can increase your
metabolism (since you burn more calories through digesting
it), I like to have a protein at every meal.  So I usually drink
1-2 protein shakes a day.

3) Greens Powder – Since I have a hard time eating enough
green vegetables each day, the one I take contains 76 ingredients
based on greens, fruits, veggies, enzymes, pre and probiotics,
and more.

4) Post Workout Formula – You probably know by now that
your post workout nutrition can help you burn more fat and
get better results out of your workout.  The one I take has
the perfect 2:1 ratio of carbs to protein.

5) Anti-Aging – Yes I'm old, so I'm taking an anti-aging
formula for overall health.  It helps with joint pain, blood
pressure, the nervous system and a bunch of other things
that old people like me have to worry about. ; )

And there you have it – my 5 favorite supplements that I'm
taking right now while I am on a serious lean body program
and for my overall health.

Have an awesome day!

Scott

5 Minute Fat Loss SecretNo Comments »

Topics: Abs Exercise

 

You're busy, I'm busy, we're all busy right?  Then how about a fat loss workout routine that fits your busy schedule?  Are the 90 minute workouts of P90X something you can sustain the rest of your life?  Maybe.  But probably not. 

Check out this quick fat burning workout that will get your heart pumping and your body sweatin' in just a few short minutes.  Best of all, you can do this with just a medicine ball (optional) and a pair of dummbells and the workout can be done anywhere.

One round of this circuit takes just 5 minutes, so if you're short on time (let's say you only have 10 minutes), do 2 rounds of this circuit.  Maybe on the weekend you have time for a 20 minute circuit, so do 4 rounds.

The workout is easy to follow along – there are 5 exercises.  At each exercise, you'll perform the movement for 40 seconds.  Rest for 20 seconds before moving on to the next exercise (so you switch exercises at the top of each minute).  So one time through will take 5 minutes, 2 times through the circuit takes 10 minutes and so on (the clock never stops until the workout is complete).

The exercises are below:

7 Weird Movements For Flatter Abs3 Comments

Topics: Abs Exercise

 

Conventional abs exercises, like traditional crunches and sit ups, don't flatten your belly, right?  I mean if they did, everyone that finished their workouts with hundreds of crunches each day would have washbard abs.

And we also know by now that to rock a flat belly in your swimsuit, you need to have a natural, whole, clean diet and should be eating these foods.

But if you're looking for more effective exercises for flatter abs, and have your diet and weight training under control, try these variations of the plank to put a jolt into your abs workout.  You'll find that these are fun, and much more effective ways to tighten your belly without a single crunch.
