Most exercise experts advocate the use of a post-workout meal to
enhance the benefits of your work out and this is essential for a six pack
abs diet. Many people grab a sports drink or candy bar, thinking that a
quick blast of carbs is all they need for recovery. This couldn’t be
further from the truth. Post-workout food prep is not rocket science, but
not using the correct nutrients to refuel after a workout makes it harder
to do a good six pack abs diet.
To Supplement or Not to Supplement That is The Six
Pack Abs Diet Question
There are a multitude of supplement products marketed for a six pack
abs diet. They swear that you’ll get ripped and look like the people who
advertise their products. Most of these supplements are extremely
expensive, and if you are not into competitive bodybuilding, way too
calorie-laden to be of much help for your six pack abs diet. In addition
to expense, they can be a real pain to measure, mix, and carry on a day

to day basis. Not too many people I know carry shaker cups, huge cans
of whey powder, glucose powder and assorted other ingredients to the
gym or to work with them every day. The few people I know that
actually do this are competition-level athletes, and it is part of their job.
First of all, yes, you do need carbs, but you also need some protein as
well. Both of these ingredients work with each other to speed muscle
recovery and reload you for the rest of your day. The meal for your six
pack abs diet should be easy to prepare, easy to consume, and not cost a
fortune to buy.
Top Re-Load Foods for a Six Pack Abs Diet
1. Apples: a medium sized apple has about 45 calories in it-it
provides both carb and fiber and will give you the sugar boost you
need post-workout.

2. Peanut butter: while somewhat high in calories, 1 Tablespoon of
regular peanut butter provides 4 grams of protein and only 98
calories to your six pack abs diet. Oddly, the ‘no-sugar’ variety
seems to have more calories than regular, so don’t waste your
money on it.
3. Yogurt with fruit: this is the perfect end to a workout. I use
Chobani Greek yogurt (Black Cherry) and a six oz cup has 140
calories, no fat, and 14 grams of protein. Yogurt is easily
digestible and goes to work quickly to replenish your body with
needed fuel to get you through to your next meal. Any brand of
no-fat yogurt is good, check the labeling for nutritional
information. Even better-there’s no prep involved and all you need
is a spoon.
4. Celery and Hummus: Hummus is both delicious and packed with
protein and carb. Pair with celery for a crunchy, filling snack. This
is what I personally chomp on. Are you asking why not peanut
butter and celery? The answer is simple, peanut butter will kill me

within 15 minutes of eating it (my mom found out the hard way
before allergy testing, I was 3 and stuck in the ICU for 5 days!)
5. If you don’t have any other options, a lower calorie version of a
bottled protein shake is good. Prepare to spend anywhere up to
$3.00.bottle for it. Check to make sure that it comes in under 200
calories for your six pack abs diet.
Some trainers have advocated this post workout time as the perfect time
to indulge in usually off-limits foods; you probably could get away with
a candy bar or something similar in the short run( oh yeah- Capt’n
Crunch here I come…), but for a real six pack abs diet to work, you need
to instead chose better and more healthy foods for long term results.
