Many people think that the fastest way to get a six pack fast, is by doing a bunch of abdominal exercises and workouts. Whilst in reality, working out is not the most important factor by a long shot. Eating the right diet and providing fat burning and muscle building nutrition is far more important. So what goes into the best six pack abs eating plan?

Carbs: these are important as you needs them to keep all your bodies functions going. You see, what many people miss when they outlaw carbs, is that it gives you teh energy levels you need to actually build muscle.

If you half your bodyweight, this is how much grams of carbohydrate you must eat. As it's needed most when your exercising, you should eat it both before and afterwards.

Protein: this is really important for building six pack abs. You see, when you work out your muscle tissue tears. When your muscles repair you will have greater mass and strength. But if you don't have protein your body won't have the raw materials it needs to actually repair itself which will mess up all that time spent working out. For this reason you should consume 1.5 x your bodyweight in grams of protein. And an additional 20g before and after your exercise routine.

Fat: you should do your best to consume just a very small amount of fats whilst on this eating plan. However, you will need some to keep your energy levels up and your bodies functions running. So if you multiply your bodyweight by 0.2, then this is how much fat you should be consuming in grams.

Calories: By cutting your calorie intake you should be able to lose some stomach fat right away. Sometimes, you don't need to do anything but get rid of excess belly fat and your abs will shine through! So only eat around 10 calories for pound of your weight.

Whilst you should keep to this abs eating plan as much as possible, you should also break from it every so often. By doing this your metabolism won't crash due to lack of energy from your cut carbs consumption. So break the diet every few weeks or so and focus on eating a bunch of carbs on those days.

With this knowledge you can now make a start on creating an abs eating plan for yourself, based around your bodyweight. And remember, if you find yourself wavering from your diet, just get back on it as soon as possible.
