The Perfect Sit-Up

Today I will give a detailed description for the perfect technique for thesit-up. Do the sit up with poor technique, and it will make no difference to your abs whatsoever. But do sit-ups (or crunches) with correct technique and it is very important ingredient in your ‘flat abs’ journey.

how-to-do-sit-ups-3

So how should the sit-up be done?

1/ Lay face up, with your knees bent, your feet flat, and your hands touching the side of your head with your elbows pointing out sideways.

2/ Engage your stomach muscles and lift your shoulders off the floor using you abs. Only lift as high as your stomach will take you, do not sit completely upright as this only uses your back.

3/ As you lift up, keep a gap between your chin and chest (imagine you have a tennis ball between them) and keep your eyes pointed up towards the ceiling all the time.

4/ At the top of the movement squeeze as high as you can for 1 second, then slowly lower back down.

Today’s Takeaway – You won’t be able to do as many sit-ups as you have done in the past by doing them this way, but you will get 10 times the fat burning and ab flattening benefit.

99% of us don't get enough protein in our diet!

Do you eat enough protein to recover from your workouts and to help you burn fat as efficiently as possible? Unfortunately 99% of us don’t!

Protein is an essential food for anyone who is exercising and/or trying to lose weight. Use the search tool in thr right column for more information on this.

But 99% of people don’t get enough of it. You should be eating around 1.5 grams of protein for every kilogram you weigh. For example, if you weight 70 kilos you should eat 105 grams of protein a day.

If you are just eating protein at lunch and dinner it is unlikely you will get near you target. Most people get around 1 gram of protein per gram of body-weight.

So what’s the answer?

Eat protein throughout the day. Most people eat lunch around 1pm and dinner 7pm. And between 7pm and 1pm they eat very little protein. So try eating it at breakfast. Eggs is one great example.

Also try snacking on nuts throughout the day as they provide a good source of protein as well.

If you really can’t see yourself doing either of these things, then you should consider a protein powder supplement (use search tool on right for more details).

Today’s Takeaway – Increase your protein intake if you want to lose weight. It will make a massive difference.

How Do You Choose A Good Personal Trainer?

I totally agree that there are a lot of ‘cowboys’ out there working as Personal Trainers. I have come across a lot of fellow trainers in my time in the industry, and frankly some of them have no idea what they are doing.

Unfortunately you can be qualified as a personal trainer with just 2 weeks worth of education. I know that sounds crazy but its true. This two weeks of training can give someone the ‘REPS Level 2′ qualification that they need.
Obviously this is where the problems come in, in terms of lack of knowledge and experience.
So how can you check out your personal trainer before going ahead with them?
1/ Visit the REPS Official website – “http://www.exerciseregister.org/“  and type in the persons name. If they are not there at all – run a mile. Ideally they will have a ‘Level 3′ qualification – you need to undertake a lot more training to achieve this. Type in my name  ‘Rob Bowman’ and you will know the sort of thing you should look for.
2/ Any reputable personal trainer will offer you a free consultation before signing up. This gives you the chance to check them out and ask any questions you like before signing up. Have a list of questions ready before you meet them, and if they don’t come up with the right answers, try someone else. If they don’t offer a free consultation at all, again run a mile!
Today’s Takeaway – Choosing a Personal Training is a massive decision, whilst your ongoing fitness and weight loss success could rely on. So shop around, and make sure you choose the right personal trainer for the job.
