Get off your mind the fact that the shape of your midsection largely determines how good you'll look on the beach this summer for a moment. I'll get back to that in a minute...
Diet
There is an old saying that “abs are made in the kitchen“. To accomplish 6 pack abs, you need to focus mostly on your diet. Getting 6 pack abs is 80% diet and 20% exercise. No matter how great your ab workout is, if you don't clean up your diet, there will still be a layer of fat covering your ab muscles.
Protein is the number one tool to building blocks of muscle. Having enough protein in your diet also gives you a better feeling of fullness and helps your body burn more calories since the body requires more time to digest protein. Some good sources of protein are: egg whites and lean meat.
Carbohydrates are very important in your diet too since carbs aid with muscle repair and recovery. Taking carbohydrates after a workout ensures that they are least likely to become fat . Add around 1 to 2 cups of raw vegetables as well. They absorb the protein properly, control insulin levels, and flood your body with vitamins, minerals, fibers and antioxidants.
This diet came from Vince Gironda, considered as the best trainer of champion bodybuilders in his time.
