Tips for Getting Flatter Abs in 30 Days [4 Weeks]

For you to get flatter abs in a month or thereabouts, there are certain tips that can help you achieve that, and they are as follows:

1 – Clean Up Your Diet

If you really intend to get a flat abs, then it is imperative you avoid consuming junk and processed foods, and substitute them with nutritious foods, especially the ones that contain excellent amount of protein and healthy fats as well as moderate amount of carbs.

Foods to Eat For Flatter Abs

These are foods with significant content of protein, healthy fats, and carbs, e.g.:

Fish
Lean chicken breasts
Legumes
Beans
Whole grains
Fresh vegetables
Low-sugar fruits
Dairy
Nuts and seeds

Foods to Avoid For Flatter Abs

These are foods with high sugar, refined carbs, and fat. e.g.:

Fruit juice
Fast food
Cakes, candy, cookies and other related foods
Fried foods
White rice, white bread and pasta
Flavored yogurts

In addition to the above, also avoid taking sugary drinks or supermarket fruit juices that contain excessive amount of sugar and additives because they will frustrate your results and delay you from reaching your desired weight loss goals.

It is best you replace such drinks with the natural water. You can as well add lemon and a small amount of honey to make the water taste better.

2 – Avoid Chewing Gum

Your chances of getting flatter abs quick are very slim if you don’t cut back on chewing gum.

The reason is that chewing gum causes you to swallow excess tummy-bloating air, which will negatively affect your desired weight loss goal.

Additionally, these gums are often loaded with sugar, alcohol and artificial sweeteners, which make weight loss almost impossible.

What’s the way out?

If you must chew at all, then you should opt for organic gums like Glee Gum or Simple Gum because they contain low-calorie and also they have no artificial sweeteners, which could trigger weight gain in your stomach region.

3 – Say No to White Flour

Foods made with white flour such as white pasta, white bread, white rice, etc. contain only few amounts of fiber and will ultimately cause your stomach to bloat up.

In fact, multiple studies reveal that white flour is one of the leading causes of belly fat, and for this reason it is best you avoid and replace it with whole grain products as you hope for a flatter abs.

4 – Add Resistance Training

Multiple studies show that practicing strength-training exercises that target your arms, shoulders, chest, back and legs can help accelerate the goal of getting a flat tummy in few weeks.

5 – Stick to the Plan

Creating or having a routine is not just enough; you must make sure you discipline yourself by sticking to the plan so as to be able to get that your long-desired flatter abs.

Remember to say no to excuses, perform the exercises as and when due, practice healthy eating habits, etc. and you will reach your goal in little to no time!
