Question:
What are some Low Carb foods?
I am trying to lose weight and gain a six pack, But How do I do that? Crunches arent really working for me? HELP!
Answers:
WARNING: A low-carb diet will not help you get a six-pack. Your body NEEDS carbs, and cutting them out is not only harmful to your body but it is also detrimental to your weight loss efforts.
You can't spot-reduce fat. Your body puts it on and takes it off in its own way. The only way for a female to get a six-pack is to get her body fat down to about 12%, and that takes strict diet and regular exercise. Crunches alone won't do it -- sure, they strengthen your abs, but they're not good at stripping away the layer of fat that sits over them. Cardio, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and even strength training will help you lose fat.
If you want some good information about how to get that washboard gut, check out the discussion boards on the Womens Health website (http://www.womenshealth.com/). You'll learn everything you need to know about what to eat, what to avoid, how much to eat, how often to eat, what exercises work, which ones don't, and how much exercise you'll need to do to get there -- if you do it right, you won't have to work out as much as you might think.
