Why You Still Don’t Have a Six-Pack After Doing 1000 Crunches a Day
At times, you might think it’s impossible to get that shredded 6-pack, even though you’ve been doing ab exercises for ages. But there’s no reason to get desperate. People who already have that perfect look often say that “abs are made in the kitchen.” And it seems like this curious phrase might be the secret to success.
We at Trends believe anything is possible if you put your mind to it. So let’s find out why abs are “made in the kitchen” and how it can help us achieve our goals.
Ab workouts won’t help you lose belly fat.
Exercising alone won’t give you visible abs.
Unless you eat healthily, it’ll be difficult to get that coveted ab definition just by doing exercises. You’ll still likely have a layer of fat covering the abs. So, while you might already have a 6-pack from exercising, they just aren’t as visible as you’d like. Sure, it’s possible to lose fat by exercising, like by adding cardio and resistance training, which has been shown to help lose weight, for example; but it just may not be enough.
It’s much easier to reduce your caloric intake through diet than to try to burn off all the fat you’ve gained by eating a lot of unhealthy food. That’s why the best way to lose belly fat and finally get defined abs is to combine a healthy diet with exercise.
