Those of us who enjoy a good run now and then can all understand the demands that are required for the activity. Some of the most obvious are good weather, comfortable, supportive shoes and attire, and not to mention time! It can soon become hard for us to run for long periods of time–the painful impact it can have on knees and ankles just doesn’t seem worth it sometimes. Not to mention that the appeal to job outdoors easily looses appeal when the weather turns inclement.

Those of us who aren’t so much into running may be looking for a low-keyworkout that offers the same excellent health benefits you can get from jogging or running with the dependability of remaining inside. How can one really enjoy an exercise after having to piece together two or three different routines or jump on and off several different machines?

Once upon a time the fitness world was ruled by the stairmaster and the treadmill. People were ecstatic to finally find an exercise machine that produced “jogger’s physique” results without having to actually run. But those machines are incredibly space-consuming, not to mention bulky!

Now there is a new machine that is not only much less bulky than the stairmasters and treadmills of yesterday, but is also offers an extremely graceful movement. The elliptical trainer can be as low or high-impact as you want because you are the one who sets the pace!

One of the most admirable things about elliptical trainers is that you can work out your whole body in one fluid motion. everything from your shoulders to your calves will feel the burn! You don’t have to force yourself through hours of sweating, exhausting workouts to gain decent muscle tone. If you’re worried about the element of time, just ask yourself if you can manage about 20 minutes a day, three to five days a week. Even if you use the elliptical trainer while watching your favorite show, the workout still counts!

Elliptical trainers vary in price range and can be purchased online or at most fitness equipment stores. You don’t have to purchase an elliptical trainer to use one, as they can usually be found at most gyms now.

The most important thing to remember is that a flat stomach isn’t made in the gym, it’s made in the kitchen. You already do exercise regularly and the 6 small meals is the way to go. Be patient. It is becoming harder and harder to strip the last bit of fat as your body is trying hard to keep some resources for “rainy days” (which isn’t bad thing by my opinion).

A good diet containing enough high-quality protein (such as chicken, beef, fish, or a good whey protein), moderate amounts of unrefined carbohydrate, and plenty of healthy fats (found in salmon, mackerel, or flax oil) is the best way to strip away the fat and reveal your abdominal muscles.

1. Eat healthier and cut down on junk food, such as replacing potato chips and chocolate with fruit. You’ll see a world of difference.

2. Watch how many soft drinks you consume. Consider flavored water as an alternative if you must.

3. Do aerobic exercise daily at a 30 minute minimum and include 1-2 day(s) rest break each week. Anything that brings your heart rate up. Take up dancing, running,, tae-bo, and walking at a good pace.

4. Eat lots of lean protein (like beans and nuts – have some meat, it is rather good for you as long as you do not eat the fat!), fruits and dark vegetables, and whole wheat breads and grains. They keep you fuller longer than white breads like in cakes, cookies, and sweets. Also, stay away from dairy products.

5. To better work the entire abdominal region, vary your exercises: crunches work the upper abdomen; leg raises work the lower abdomen; side bends work the obliques (also known as love handles).

6. It is better to aim at burning fat altogether since it is impossible to spot train. And sure, you can do 100 daily crunches. But if you’ve got a layer of fat covering up your ab work, then what’s the point? You need to burn the stomach fat to see the changes.

7. Consider some form of anaerobic exercise, as well. Some simple resistance training, or light weight lifting, will not only help you burn fat more efficiently, but tone up the rest of your body as well.

8. Raising your metabolic rate is crucial. The higher your metabolic rate, the more energy (and thus fat) you’ll burn even when you aren’t doing anything. Try compound exercises like deadlifts with heavier weights. See “How to Do a Deadlift” for more information.

9. To increase your metabolic rate, increase the frequency of your meals to 6-8 times a day. Every 2 to 3 hours injest a small meal. This increased frequency, will put your metabolisim into overdrive. WARNING do not over-eat… small meals only. For greatest effect only eat carbohydrates before 2pm, from then on, only proteins.

10. Do crunches every day. You must be consistant or else it won’t work. The only person holding you back from your dream stomach is you!

11. Do a lot of cardio

12. Eat at least two hours before your sleep fat wont burn well while asleep
