So you'd like to look better naked. You've started taking on those undesirable bulges, love handles, and back rolls with waist exercises.
Fantastic decision. Now here are 3 issues you'll need to avoid in your quest for a lustworthy midriff:
Carbohydrate and Sugars
Sure you've heard this before: taking in junk food will make you blow up like a deer tick. Here's a secret that you might not already know: in order to resemble a greek goddess or god, you don't have to eliminate "bad foods" entirely, just limit your consumption of certain items.
The leading offender? Not fat, but sugars and carbohydrate. These foods tend to cause insulin spikes that, long story short, tell your body to store excess calories as fat. So you can do your waist exercises 'til your blue in the face: if your system is still working to store calories as fat, you're not going to get any slimmer.
Exactly how do you identify foods with sugar and carbohydrate in them? Read the label. If the food has anything more than 0 grams of sugar/carbohydrate in it, then voila, it contains sugar. A second easy test: if the food is white, it's probably a carbohydrate. Good examples include pasta, breads, potatoes, and rice.
For many people, eliminating sugar from our diets all in one blow is virtually impossible. Instead, try some tricks to scale back gradually. Instead of a bowl of cereal for breakfast, have a couple of EggBeaters and some spinach. Have your standard lunch, snacks, and dinner for a couple of weeks and track your progress. After a couple of weeks, start replacing the sugars and carbohydrate in your lunch with lean meats or veggies.
Phase out sugar and carbohydrate slowly, and give yourself a cheat day every 7-10 days.
Being Inconsistent
Attacking your waist each and every day one week and not at all the next is really a recipe for failure. The typical cause of inconsistency? Failing to make your workouts a priority.
If your waist exercises are not your #1 priority, then when it comes time to scheduling an exercise routine, writing, cooking, playing video games, or chatting with your family or friends is often more tempting and will win out.
Make your exercises the first priority. This is your life, and it's going to be more difficult to appreciate it if you aren't comfortable in your own body, so schedule your weekly workouts and the rest should be secondary.
Not Working Hard Enough
Your body will get stronger and adapt to the stresses you put it through. This includes your waist exercises, and it means that keeping the very same routine with the exact same intensity will lead to an eventual plateau; you'll see no more gains and you'll probably get exasperated and quit.
To avoid this, keep a diary, notebook, or spreadsheet of your waist exercise routine. If one specific workout felt easier this week, make a note to increase the reps, weight, or intensity the next time you do that or a related workout.
If it's easy to do, your body won't benefit. Push yourself to work just a little harder each and every week and within a few weeks you won't believe how far you've come.
