Weight Loss: Abs Diet Workout Worksheet  

Like naked bodies, all workouts are not made alike. If you're currently not exercising, then anything is better than a nightly chips festival on the love seat. But for the most powerful workouts for burning fat and adding muscle, follow the Abs Diet Workout Worksheet.

 

Your goal here is to amass a total of 40 points per week. For each activity, you get full credit for doing the activity continuously for 20 minutes. Exercises in the Abs Diet Workout give you the highest number of points, but if you can't keep to that workout schedule, you can sneak in a few extra points here and there to make your workout work. Don't try to go over 40 points a week, though--there's no extra credit for total exhaustion.
