How to stop ur belly from being a 1 pack

Dear bloggie,

MFR (Incase u dunno, it's Mother F*cker Rocker) today pop me the question

"wat exercise for abs?"

The basic of every workout is to have a goal. Gain muscle? burn fat? Gain strength? Gain flexibility? Tone ur muscle? So I ask wat kinda abs he wanted, the super slim marathoner one or the hulk one, where u can take people head and slam, can crack their head. He say just wanted to keep his perut buncit less buncit... >_<

So in short, Mother F*cker Rocker was turning into Monkish Fat@$$ Rock. I can understand the feel of looking at ur round potted belly and pondering was how+when in chihuahua did it got so big!? Anyway, here is my answer for reducing ur perut buncit problem.

Sadly, there is no abs exercise for perut buncit problem. There is no such thing as spot removal. What this means in laymen term is, say I use my "brother" below everyday to "exercise", the fat around my "brother" won't go away. To fuel our body when we exercise, our body will burn first carbs... If no more carbs, it will burn fat, followed by protein, last of all if no more protein to burn we die. So that's why we need to exercise more than a period of time (Some claim 20 min), before our body runs outta carbs and onli starts to burn fat. However, here's the most important thing, the fat our body burn... It's not the exercise that determine fat from where get burnt but rather it's our body that determine it. In 10 words or less, we can't control where the fat we burn comes from. Typically, the body have a higher tendency to burn fat from our belly last. That's why it's hard to trim down on the spare tire.

Ok, so wat abs exercise is best then? You see, abs exercises typically will strengthen the core and amp up the muscle there. To unbuncit ur perut however, u need to BURN FAT BABY! Hence the answer is no abs exercise, but rather do cardio. Wat is cardio? Cardio is any activity that evaluates ur heart to the zone where ur body starts burning carbs and fat. If u wan more details on cardio, Here is a GREAT source.

While cardio should be the core of one's workout, one should also consider throwing in a few resistance training to bulk up. The reason is that muscle will ramp up one's metabolism. Higher metabolism = Burn carbs + fat. The main goal here is to have enuff muscle, so even when ur slacking at the sofa, ur burning fat!

Last of all, I think I come to the most important part of this topic. Nutrition! People think u exercise, burn fat, end of story. Well, sad to say... greatest myth of all. The best way to lose fat, is to eat less fatty sh*tz. Take for instance McDonald Big Mac has a whooping 576 calories (50% of em from fat), which takes around 40-50 minutes of jogging to burn!

So that's my take on pot belly's question above... Do note, it's based on what I read since I started "gyming"...
