7 Steps to Losing Belly Fat. Here are my top 7 tips to getting rid of your belly fat to reveal your six pack abs. All year you have been working hard in the gym and hitting those abs every training session.

Now its time to show them off this summer. Follow these 7 steps to have the best visible midsection on the beach.

1. Cut your calories! Its time for a caloric deficit, to help slim your waist line down, taking in a lower amount of calories will mean your body will have to breakdown more fat for energy as you keep your workouts intense.

2. Hit up intervals every time! Whenever you do cardio in your workouts you got to hit interval training this is going to increase the intensity of your workout and help boost your metabolism for up to 38 hours.

3. Keep doing your resistance training! By keeping up with your weight training you will increase your metabolism by up to 20% per day and burn more calories after your workout and muscle tissue repairs.

4. Cut out the sugar! Sugar (glucose) is fast a acting carbohydrate that you don’t need in a fat loss program, we need slower release carbohydrates to keep your blood sugar and insulin levels low. Glucose comes in nearly every sweet tasting product on the supermarket shelf. But is going to do nothing for your six pack mission so stay away from it to have visible abs.

5. Get plenty of sleep! Studies have shown that by getting 7-8 hours sleep a night will help you lose fat faster by up to 10% as your body have more time to repair and recover from your workouts.

6. Keep it short and sweet! Keep your workouts nice and short about 30-40 minutes will be great for your midsection quest. By doing shorter workouts you have to work more intensely to get results. Use shorter rest periods and faster repetitions.

7. Eat more! Eating more times in the day will help boost your metabolism more times during the day and help towards getting your six pack. Follow these easy steps and have your six pack on show this summer!
