Quick Weight Loss - How to Lose Weight Quickly
Recommended Answer:
Your question is impossible to answer with a "yes" or "no". So, here are some comments.
Tone is an ambiguous word with no clear definition. It comes from "tonus" which is the tension in muscle at rest. That''s not something you can change unless a muscle is atrophied. Generally tonus has to do with age only and is something that muscles lose as people age.
Because "tone" is a slang term which means different things to different people, it is best to avoid using it.
Five meals a day doesn''t tell us anything. They could make you fat or they could make you slim depending on what the meals consist of.
Exercise is not the key to fat loss. Diet is.
Any exercise will burn calories but no exercise will burn fat unless your diet allows it. You can burn fat in your sleep or you can run all day and never burn any fat. It all depends on your diet.
Fat loss is determined by calorie control, not by exercise. Good exercises for burning calories are speed walking, biking, swimming, dancing, etc. and ANY other physical activity which makes you move a lot of weight for a long time. But NO exercise is good for burning fat if you eat too many calories because you can always eat more calories than you can burn.
Too many people waste energy and time because they do not understand this one simple point. The result is too often giving up in frustration, abandoning gym memberships they continue to pay for, and many other unnecessary problems not the least of which is a lack of success.
An average person must walk about five miles every day for a week to burn the calories equivalent to a pound of body fat. So, unless you think walking about five miles a day (or doing an equivalent amount of exercise) with no guarantee of fat loss makes sense, focus your fat loss program on diet.
Diet for fat loss. Exercise for fitness.
You can''t change your metabolism except by adding muscle and you need a lot of muscle for a slight increase in metabolism...and you have to keep working out to keep the muscle. You''ll burn about an extra 5-50 cal/day per pounds of new muscle mass depending on variables.
Everyone has abs. What makes the washboard abs so rare is abs covering fat and the fact that that fat is in the first place people add body fat and the last place they lose it. So, if you''re leaning toward endomorphy and find losing fat at the waist difficult, you''re going to have difficulty getting a ripped set of abs. It is that difficulty that make a shredded stomach so desirable and that means the answer to your question is; most people will have to do some sort of fat management to get ripped. Whether or not you call fat management dieting depends on your use of the vernacular.

You can forget diet pills and supplements. Diet pills won''t support a washboard waistline over the long term and cutting formulas are no more than scams. Cardio doesn''t help either without the proper diet required to create a fat burning mode. So, there is no escaping the fact that if you were not born with the genetically trim waistline, you''re going to have to work for it and that work will have more to do with diet than anything else.
Notwithstanding the above, if you just want to build ab muscle, here''s how.
