The Secret To Fab Abs

ImageWhat are the main components of the Abs Diet?
In the Abs Diet, the main component is certainly the eating principles -- specifically, making sure that you eat often enough to keep your metabolism revved and making sure you eat the right fat-burning and good-for-you Abs Diet Powerfoods that will help keep you satisfied all day long. But of course, the magic bullet is the exercise plan -- a circuit of exercises that both gets your heart rate up and also adds lean, toned muscle, which in itself will increase the rate in which you burn fat. 

What rate of weight loss can women expect when following the Abs Diet?
Of course, it depends on the woman and a lot of factors (like the starting weight). But I found that women can reasonably expect a 5-pound loss in the first two weeks (and possibly a bit more). But women should also look at such things as waist size and body-fat percentage, because the addition of lean muscle, especially at first, may throw off the scale a bit, but will pay huge dividends in the end.

What sets the Abs Diet for Women apart from other core strengthening workouts?
This is total-body: It works legs, upper body, abs, and we include a high-intensity interval session to really get the metabolic rate going. Best of all, these are all short workouts with major results. You don't need to spend a ton of time in the gym or doing long running sessions in order to change your body.
