flaxseed oil / fishoil or CLA oil are GOOD ESSENTIAL FATS, that look a lot like amino acids and are used by the body to build hormones and to dissolve minerals vitamins etc so they can enter your bloodstream...
When you diet you tend to cut out fats, thats ok, but you need some fat (like oil to keep your engine running) Whether you are on or off season its best to stay low in BAD fats and have 6 grams of GOOD fats a day. GOOD fats actually help do mobilize other stubborn fat
As for the six packs ( in my case a 9 pack (4 on each side and 2 halve rows that tie into my groin)) concerned:
While spot reduction around and on top off the waist is nearly impossible, you CAN attack the fat between the lumps of bread that make up your x-pack.
At the end of your AB workout....
Use POSING STATIC CONTRACTIONS . Stand before mirror and flex the abs hard , hold the contraction for 1 minute (you can not do this while doing a lying crunch)
What will happen is that some fat cells will be damaged and teared appart (squuezed between the rows).
I got this trick from a female medicin student (she makes for good ab workouts too o yeah)
if you do some cardio after that u you can burn the free fatty acids
About the bread and butter exercises for the abs....
* Start with lower abs first, as they are weaker and upper abs will always assist. Trying to work lower abs after upper abs are fried is not smart....
* REPS: you have the high rep "i train abs every day, sets of 200 reps until 1000" , like the good old thierry pastel. You have the low rep (4 sets 4-6 reps with roman chair and heavy plates and let the juice and diet build my abs) advocates... You know, Yates, Micheal Francois, At the show you can see their abs, but it are clearly just big unrefined lumps of lyposucced meat. The kind of building blocks you get from squatting/deadlifting with insane amounts of weight.
What we are seeking for is the kind of abs you see on Shawn Ray or Flex Wheeler......
Depending on genetics and whether the clenbuterol-T3-ketitofen-ECA-primobolan stack you bought from this mean and lean looking mofo in the gym was fake or not... both approaches be used.
To be sure i recommend to do sets with ressistance that allows 8 - 12 reps, rest for only 10 seconds after that to release lactic acid and do two more sets after that . THIS is COUNT AS ONE GIANT SET!
- 3 * giant set hangin leg raises ( no straps, in time your grip and chins will i,prove ALOT from hangin leg raises, work forearms instead to improve grip)
- rest a minute
- 3 * giant sets reverse crunches
- 3 * ginat regular crunches (hold contraction for 3 seconds)
- 3 * normal sets situps (rest a minute inbetween)
- 3 * triple drop sets crunch machine
- 4 sets cable crunches to the sides ( 2 left 2 right)
10 minutes of broomstick twisting to polish the waisline
- 4 sets of STATIC AB POSING CONTRACTIONS
- do some 30 minutes cardio after that
If possible Before breakfast, be sure you had your ECA- Yohimbine stack or the now advertised PPA stack at thist board....
Now go and cut those diamonds....
