Breakfast is always a hard one for most people. We are surround by cereals and sugary breakfast options everywhere which load us with carbohydrates.

The other day I wrote a blog about my 9 tips for sculpted abs. However, since then many of you have contacted me and asked more about nutrition and diet and what to eat to get that 6-pack we all want.

We all have abs, they are just more or less visible. To make your abs visible you need to ensure that your body fat percentage is fairly low, but also that you avoid foods that might trigger bloating and water retention. This is obviously highly individual so try to stay in tune with your body to see what foods you might react to.

However, it’s important that you don’t eat too little as this can make you waste muscle and create a stress response in your body. You need to take it slow…  Getting the body of your dreams is like a marathon, not a 30-second sprint! You need to persevere and be consistent!
