Flat belly challenge: Tips to get a flat belly faster

Would a challenge spur you to workout out more? Studies have shown that a healthy competition breeds better results so that's why we love workout challenges here!

For this flat belly challenge we'll be doing 10-15 reps of the following exercises for 3 sets. Challenge starts tomorrow Feb 15 and ends Feb 21st. The exercises include;

Leg lifts
Sit ups
Bicycle crunch
30secs full plank

To get the best out of this challenge follow these tips:

1. Avoid eating late at night and cut short on calorie dense foods and drinks, especially junk food and soft drinks.

2. Lemon detox: Drink more Lemon water because Lemon detoxifies your system and is great for weight loss. It also helps burn fat especially around the belly region. The best way to ensure you drink more Lemon water is to add fresh Lemon juice to every glass of water you drink. You can achieve this by immersing slices of Lemon into a jug of water and let that be your source of water for the day. Refill the jug before the water runs out and setup a new detox everyday .

I'd use 3 Lemons for a litre of water, you can increase this if you want your Lemon water to be very concentrated. You can substitute Lemon with Lime or Grapefruit. You can also use these 3 citrus fruits for your detox water.

3. Aim to work out everyday of the challenge and try to do 2 sessions per day. One session before your bath in the morning and the second session in the evening.

4 . To keep yourself from craving food all the time, eat more fibre and protein dense foods. Eat more fruits and veggies too.
