Ab's are made in the kitchen, not in the gym!

  • So very true. I see people waste all their hard work at the gym by believing they can eat whatever they want.

    I have come to realize this lately...and decided to start some research on changing my diet. Any suggestions on books or websites? I have lost a lot of weight from working out, but I am getting to a point to where my diet is needing to change to get the results I want. I may be smaller than I used to be, but that is not all I want anymore. I want to be fit too.

    Check out Tosca Reno's "Eat-Clean Diet".

    A great place to look at magazines such as Women's Health or Shape. I actually started by reading Flex magazine when I decided to make the lifestyle change. Don't be intimidated by the guy on Roids on the cover. Go to the nutrition section. You don't need as many calories as they do, but you need those types of foods if you want to see better definition. Yes we can eat clean, lower carbs and eat whatever we want in moderation or do a million different things to "lose weight". But if you want to go beyond the scale, then you do have to eat right.

    I like how you put the 30%gym and 70% diet.... most people forget to mention you will have tiny, weak skinny person abs if you don't do ab workouts!!
