My summer fitness program

During the summer of 2014, I went on my own diet and exercise plan. I was sick of being flabby and it was my personal goal to get a six pack. I had done some research  on physical fitness and dieting previously, but I had never actually started a diet.

My summer diet consisted of eating a low amount of carbs, eating a high amount of protein, and abstaining from eating any sweets. In all honesty  I was somewhat crazy when it came to eating fats. I wouldn't eat any meats that had more than one gram of fat per serving. the only fats that I did eat were from avocados and nuts.

Here is an example of a meal plan for a day.



Breakfast:1/2 cup of black beans, a three egg white omelet, a small can of tuna, and some carrots.
2nd meal: chicken breast and vegetables
Lunch: turkey wrap
4th meal: an apple, and some more tuna
Dinner: a salad with little salad dressing and chicken or turkey

Along with eating well, I also started working out a lot. I went on runs often, did many push ups, and many planks. A simple workout routine would include a 30 minute jog with 10 wind sprints, 100 push ups, 100 crunches, and last of all 4 sets of 1 minute planks.

I started to notice results within the first couple days and within about a week or two my friends and others around me started to notice my new appearance as well, and within 3 to 4 weeks I had accomplished my goal of getting a six pack. I was so happy, the satisfaction of having a good looking body was about as good as eating deliciously indulgent foods, so I was able to keep maintain my diet for quite some time.

If you were like me and you want to change the way your body looks you can go on a fitness program of your own. Anyone can do it, but remember you have to push yourself to achieve this goal, it is not just going to be given to you, YOU HAVE TO EARN IT IF YOU WANT IT.
