      This website shows how even healthy foods have many calories but are way better to eat than foods that are high in calories. One main example is the difference between the amount of calories in nuts and seeds vs. junk food. For example, macadamia buts have 718 calories. Yet they are full of vitamns, minerals and healthy fibers and fats. On the other hand, junk food is very high in calories but are also very unhealthy.

Bodybuilding.com - How To Get A Six-Pack - Complete Ab Program! - 0 views

  • Learning how to get a six-pack does not require expensive workout equipment promoted through obnoxious infomercials. You can't flick on the TV anymore without seeing two new abdominal exercise machines being promoted at once. There are so many of them that if you get suckered into these 'ab workout' gimmicks, you will be broke quicker than Ben Johnson sprints the 100 meter dash! And get this: Of the $520 million dollars a year spent on exercise equipment, abdominal machines get a $208 million dollar piece of the pie!
  • Learning how to get a six-pack does not require thousands or even hundreds of crunches a day. So much for the Brittany Spears ab workout! Crunches are decent but totally overused and associated with more being better.
  • Learning how to get a six-pack does not involve starvation diets. Starvation diets starve the muscle when you should be feeding the muscle instead. Guess what happens when you starve your body? Your metabolism shuts down out of survival and causes your body to store fat.

  • Abdominals Are A Muscle, Too! You want your arms to be bigger, your shoulders to be broader and your chest to be fuller, correct? And what is the solution to making these muscle groups increase in size? High intensity weight training, overload, consistency and a healthy surplus of calories. Starting to sound familiar? The same goes for your abdominals. Your abdominals are a muscle group that requires the same formula and attention and are not any different from other muscle groups. For some reason many consider abdominals to be a 'special' body part that requires a different set of rules and a completely different formula for training.
  • To get thick, dense abs - the ones that 'pop' out - you must train them with intensity and overload. Here are some practical tips you can apply to your program so that you can be the 'man' or 'gal' at your gym with a ripped and muscular six-pack. Then I will provide a sample
  • If your abs are your worse body part, then why do you keep training them last, at the end of your workout? Which muscles group will receive the highest priority when you train? The ones done at the start of your workout or the ones done at the end of the workout? Of course, the exercises done at the start of the workout while you have the most energy and focus.
  • he typical response is "Nobody does abdominals first..." That is pure BS. This just supports the notion that many people who work out don't ever question what they hear or do. They want to be spoon-fed answers and follow the trends of others without thinking for themselves. I ALWAYS train abdominals first in a workout if they need the highest attention.
  • What's going to receive better results? A muscle group that is trained one time a week or two times a week (assuming you recovered prior to the second workout commencing)? Of course, the muscle that is trained 2x a week. The more stimulus on a muscle, the more growth. That is why professional athletes are professional athletes. They have conditioned their bodies to such a high amount of stress that they are able to train more frequently.
  • Right now some of you can see a perfectly set of staggered abs that are wide and thick and separated by a line down the middle. Some of you have the classic four-pack which is four big abs with a smooth lower section. Some of you have tiny cubicle boxes sitting high on your abdominal wall. Some of you have the picture perfect eight-pack that makes people's jaws drop.
  • If building a sexy six-pack is on your 'to do' list for 2007, then start training abdominals 2-4x a week. I will teach you in a moment how to split your abdominals up into two different days based on movement.
  • To train your abdominals safely and effectively you must know the basic movement patterns of your abs and train them within all sub-categories: Truck Flexion (upper abs) Hip Flexion (lower abs) Rotation (obliques) Lateral Flexion (obliques)
  • Perform this workout at least two times a week separated by at least 48 hours rest. You should experience a deep muscle soreness after each one of these workouts. Focus on using a load that causes failure within 8-12 reps and then move to the next exercise. This is a non-stop circuit. Rest 1-2 minutes and repeat until you reach 4 sets total. Exercise Sets Reps Tempo Rest Hanging Leg Raises 1-4 8-12 311 - Rope Crunch 1-4 8-12 311 - Reverse Crunch 1-4 8-12 311 - Weighted Ball Crunch 1-4 8-12 311 1-2 minutes
  • As said earlier, buiding razor sharp abs is not the easiest task in the work but nor is it the hardest. The above abdominal exercises will help you build a deeply separated and evenly placed set of abs in little time. The truth is that if you can't see your abs, then the best exercise for your abs will be better diet.

      I think that getting abs just requires the right knowledge and this site provides it. There are so many myths on abs and it is hard to get good info on them. The best thing to do is look on a source like this or ask someone you know with abs or just the trainer at the gym .

THE ROLE OF RED MEAT IN OUR DIET - 0 views

  • Red meat has played a significant role in human evolution and remains a core food in most people's diet Red meat is naturally nutrient rich and provides so many of the essential nutrients our body requires for optimum health. Red meat is full of goodness; it tastes great, is extremely versatile and it deliciously satisfies appetites, whether eaten as part of a main meal or a snack. The goodness found in red meat Often, we are not aware of all the many nutritional benefits to be found in the food we eat and red meat is probably one of those foods. However, it is a truly amazing source of so many nutrients that are essential for healthy bodies: Protein Red meat is a significant source of high-quality protein, providing all the essential amino acids necessary for healthy body functioning and particularly important for growing children. The protein in beef and lamb is highly digestible - around 94% compared with a 78% digestibility in beans and 86% in whole wheat. Iron Red meat is a very rich source of haem-iron which is needed to form haemoglobin which carries oxygen in the blood around the body. Oxygen is essential for producing energy from food to help the body function. The haem-iron in red meat is well absorbed compared to non-haem iron in plant foods. Zinc Red meat is a good source of zinc; an essential nutrient for the immune system, growth and wound healing. The zinc in red meat and other animal foods is better absorbed than from most plant foods. Omega-3 fatty acids After fish, red meat has the second highest contribution of omega-3 and is an important natural resource of this nutrient. Omega-3s are essential to the healthy functioning of the nervous system and important to heart health.

      This article is fantastic in banishing my concerns about meat in my diet. I always think that meat is a source of great fat but it tastes great. This article acts kind of like a cook book and tells you how should be eating your meat so that it's healthy for you and won't kill you! Also preparing your own meals is a good way to learn some cooking skills, save some money from going to McDonalds, and it's healthy!
