The Plan

The nice thing about following the Abs Diet is it isn't your typical type of diet. It is a way of changing your lifestyle to become healthier and stronger. Some of the main things I must follow are:
12 Power Foods - must incorporate foods everyday for protein and other health benefits:

1. Almonds and other nuts
2. Beans and Legumes
3. Spinach and Other Green Veggies
4. Dairy
5. Instant Oatmeal
6. Eggs
7. Turkey and other lean meats
8. Peanut Butter
9. Olive Oil
10. Whole Grain Breads and Cereals
11. Protein Powder
12. Raspberries and Other fruits

I must eliminate refined carbs, saturated fats, trans fats, high fructose syrup, partially hydrogenated oil and fatty cuts of meat

I will be eating three small meals a day followed by three snacks in between each meal and 3 strength training sessions at the gym followed by two cardio sessions. Even though the book has certain exercises and cardio to follow i will be changing them up a bit. I will do 30-45 min of cardio and an the two days of strength training shown n the book but also a BodyPump and a Yoga class at my gym once a week.
