To Perfect Abs - 3 massive tips to get a 6 pack

Ok, my sons have six packs. One of them is seven years old, the other three. Have I trained them how to make a 6 pack? No, I am not some idiot father who has them down the gym (though they do like playing 'hang tough' on my barbell - you'll see later why that might actually help! No, the reason you can see their six packs is they have less than 10% body fat. Unlike many parents we don't give them junk food, just simple unprocessed food meals. My wife enjoys making them, and prefers to give them natural balanced meals. We give them enough portions to make sure they clear their plates but don't over do it. They never shout that they are hungry and still get one or two treats during the day. But they also burn it off running around.

Processed foods wreck your hormones, and won't help you to perfect abs deffinition, they lower the metabolic rate - see later why that is an important factor.
