Rock Hard Abs - Bucks County Personal Trainer Teaches Muscle & Fat Loss

By Jose Loni

Work your muscles, lose fat and get rock hard abs. Everyday, we always see a new machine or ab exercise promising rock hard abs. Well, by increasing your muscle mass through weight training, you will lose fat and get rock hard abs!

New exercises, ab machines or diets all promise the same thing- fantastic abs. It's incredible how they market the new machines and exercises to make you believe that if you use their product, you will look like the over-muscled bodybuilder or the super trim fitness model that they have demonstrating the exercises.

Here's the reality check! You will not look like those fitness models in a few weeks of using their products.

Approach it from another way, put on more muscle, increase your metabolism and burn fat so you will have overall less fat and rock hard abs!

Resistance training has a way of making the muscles rapidly adapt to the increased demand of the exercise. As the intensity of the activity increases, the muscles must also work harder, which requires more energy to do the increased muscle activity. The body needs to supply the muscles with the energy to carry out its activity.

The body will go and look for sources of energy to supply the muscles. The body will consume the food we eat and use that first. Then when more energy is required, the body will take the stored body fat and convert that into fuel for the muscles to use.

When we exercise, the body's muscles are worked at a great intensity, which decreases the oxygen in the muscles. The moment the body has a chance to bring oxygen to the muscles, it will work hard to try to repair, replenish and remove waste products from the muscles.

This repair and nourishment of the muscles can occur throughout the day and causes the body to burn more calories even after the exercise session is over. As a result, the body becomes a fat burning machine, even when it is not exercising.

Training causes the muscles to increase in size, which will proportionally increase the overall muscle activity and burn more fat.

More muscle means less fat, which inevitably means rock hard abs. It is really that simple! Train hard and lose the fat.
