How to Get Ripped with 6 Simple Diet Tips

The quest for six-pack abs may seem like an unattainable goal to many. There are so many diets to try, so many workouts to do, and the amount of information and methods can seem overwhelming.

At SIXPAD, we like to keep things simple and straightforward. Here are six simple diet tips to help you get ripped fast.

Drink up

To banish the bloat, you need to drink water – lots of it. Water helps flush out toxins and helps your body’s metabolism run at its best.

Eat plenty of protein

Muscles need amino acids. And where do amino acids come from? The answer is protein. Protein helps the muscles rebuild after they’ve been fatigued from activation and overload, which happens when you work out or use SIXPAD. Protein is found in eggs, chicken, greek yogurt, beef, and other animal products, as well as legumes and quinoa. Eat a protein-rich snack within an hour of your workout for optimal results.

Keep micros in mind

Micronutrients such as potassium, vitamins A, C, and E, and a host of others are found in fruits and veggies. Try adding Romaine lettuce to a salad or top that protein-rich Greek yogurt with some blueberries. Micronutrients help protect the body from free radicals and gives your body an extra boost.

Eat complex carbs

Not all carbs are created equal. Slower-digesting, complex carbs, such as sweet potatoes, don’t cause insulin spikes that simple carbs, such as potato chips, do. In fact, if your goal is to build amazing abs, then you need complex carbs in your diet to aid in recovery.

Eat healthy fats

You must eat fat to burn fat, and no, we’re not talking about fatty foods like french fries. We’re talking about fats such as avocado, coconut oil and nuts and seeds, which helps repair cell structure. This will help your progress as you train in the gym and with your SIXPAD.

Be balanced

Your body and your abs need a variety of nutrients for optimal health and strength. Keep portions sensible, and remember that crash diets don’t help you maintain your ideal weight in the long-term. Pace yourself for long-term, maintainable results. To amp up results, try the revolutionary CMM Pulse of SIXPAD’s Abs Fit. Its EMS technology will activate and maintain your muscles wherever you are.
