downside of following a
traditional low-carb diet,
for an extended period of
time, is trying to maintain, or preserve lean
muscle mass. As you
take away a source of
fuel for your body (carbohydrates) your body is
going to search for an alternate source of energy.
In an ideal world, your
body would only burn fat
as source of fuel, which
is the ultimate goal, but
unfortunately your body
also has a tendency to
also break down muscle
in the process. This is
why our Panel of Experts
all personally follow (for
their own goals) and recommend a Carb-Cycling
approach.

story. For example, you can step on the scale without losing weight, but still have lost fat (by gaining
lean muscle). Remember that muscle weighs more
than fat, so it only take a small gain in lean muscle
to offset any weight lost in fat. This is why
its important to measure your body fat
percentage as part of your progress
tracking. Its also important to redo
your calculations at least once every 30
days, to make any necessary caloric/macronutrient adjustments.

As we mentioned in
previous pages, we have
created a carb-cycling
strategy to help you burn
fat and reveal those abs
youve always wanted. The
key to success with any
endeavor is consistency,
and its no different with a
nutrition plan. In order to
achieve success with this
carb-cycling diet, you need
to consistently track all
three macronutrients: fats,
proteins and carbohydrates.

Even if you dont recognize the term Steady State cardio (SS), sometimes referred
to as LISS (Low Intensity Steady State), chances are you still know what it is.
When you see someone on an elliptical machine, or treadmill, keeping a steady
pace, and steady heart-rate for 30 minutes, this is steady state cardiovascular
training. Steady state cardio programs typically involve 30-45 minutes, keeping
your heart rate of 60-75% of your MHR (Maximum Heart Rate). You can
calculate your MHR with the calculator below.

Whitney Reid:
I like to mix up my HIIT training. I either do a sprint workout on a track or incorporate
super-sets during my workouts. The sprints take me back to my football training days.
HIGH INTENSITY
INTERVAL
TRAINING
HIIT (High Intensity Interval
Training) is a very
effective method
for lowering your
body fat. Unlike
Steady State/LISS
training, where your
heart rate is consistent throughout
your training sesssion, HIIT training
sessions are completed using
alternating periods of high-intensity
and low-intensity activity. A general
rule of thumb is to combine highintensity periods and resting periods
into a 1:1 or 1:3 ratio. For instance,
you can sprint for one minute and
jog for one minute or sprint for one
minute and jog for three.
HIIT training can help you burn
more fat and calories in a single
session in less time versus steady
state cardio! HIIT actually helps your
body to continue burning calories
after the session is complete. In fact,
research has shown that just 10
minutes of HIIT can burn the same
amount of calories as a 50 minute
steady state cardio session.

usually lost in many peoples ab training. Whenever you decide to add weight to any ab exercise, you
want to make sure to perform that exercise first
in your routine because it will take more energy
and strength to complete each rep with the added
resistance. These exercises will also be performed
at a medium rep range of 12-15 reps per set. To
finish off each routine, well do more body weight
exercises and increase reps to 15-20 per set. This
all-around ab program will have your
abs burning and will lay the
foundation for that six pack

Courtney King:
I have started to incorporate a lot more abs into
my workout regimen. I think a lot of women are
scared to train abs because they are afraid they
will get blocky! Its really all about how you
train them and what exercises you incorporate.
I like to train abs weighted and non weighted,
switch it up and do different exercises. Also,
when lifting focus on your breathing and
engaging your core properly.

Steven Cao:
When training abs, its important
to focus on contracting the actual
muscle group instead of just going
through the motion. You want
to feel the squeeze and do slow
controlled reps to get the most out
