How To Get Ripped Abs Challenge – Day 17
Today is day 17 of my How to Get Ripped Abs Challenge. I did my workout B which includes several full body exercises and really gets the heart rate going. I find the split squats very challenging because I’m not used to doing reps in the 12-15 range. This has really given my thighs a new twist and I can actually tell I’m getting a little bit of lean mass on my legs. I haven’t worked my legs that hard in the last year so these workouts are really bringing them up quick.
The workouts in the gym are probably the toughest I have ever done in my life. Actually they have been the toughest gym workouts I have ever done. By the end of the session my shirt was soaking wet and I could have wrung it out. I’m not even using any thermogenic fat burners. I’m keeping my supplements very healthy and natural so the only fat burner I am taking is green tea which has a little bit of caffeine in it. How to Get Ripped Abs will get you leaner than ever on the workout plan and diet alone. There is no need for any of the fat burners on the market. I’m only using Fish Oil, Green Tea, Alpha Lipoic Acid, and a multivitamin each day. I want to be as healthy as possible at the end of this.
I didn’t have dinner until fairly late so I didn’t have a starchy carb with dinner. I made a huge grilled chicken salad that was delicious and filled me up for the night. If you eat late salads are perfect. How to Get Ripped Abs allows for fairly high carbs in the first phase at around 50%. Going into the next phase of the diet I will be alternating low carb with high carb days. Even the low carb days aren’t that low considering it is still 20% of the calories then so I’ll still be taking in over 100 grams of carbs on the low carb day. I can switch over to that on either week 3 or 4. The fat loss has been really solid on the high carbs so I might go another week. I would like to get myself in a little better condition before I start dropping the carbs.
Another good day and on target.
