Abs by July?
First, some basic info 15, female, 5'9" I weigh 132 lbs, waist measurement of about 28 and a supposed body fat percentage of 16% (According to some online calculators) I've eat very healthy and workout everyday. My goal is to have a flat stomach/abs by July, which would give me a little more than a month. My general question is- is this a realistic goal? Also, Ive read contradicting info everywhere.. some say that 20 minutes of HIIT is ideal for fat burning, some say that prolonged, steady running is better. I'm a runner, so I find 20 minutes of HIIT rather easy. But the books say that by running/doing cardio for more than twenty minutes will just counteract the strength training I do and break down lean muscle mass. Would the muscle still be depleting if I ran for twenty minutes in the morning, and twenty minutes at night, per say? Or would this have the same muscle-eating effect? For my goal- abs- what is a good plan? Some kind of exercise/fitness guideline would be wonderful. Up until now Ive been running anywhere from 30-60 minutes a day, either in intervals or steadily..

- I can't give you much information on what to do except that to see those abs you have have to drop to about 15% body fat to see them which is pretty easy and you should be able to do in a month since you're about 16%. Good luck.
- yes it is possible a good plan is p90x - ab ripper x
- Do this first thing in the morning when you wake up, one time before lunchtime, and one time before you sleep. http://youtube.com/watch?v=fk_usVg7Fp0 It will work if you do it properly. This workout gives results pretty fast. You'll see results within about 5 days. Your abs will probably hurt bad but thats ok. If you can feel them, then they are working. Stay away from alot of fats. Eat a good amount of protein and drink lots of water. Throughout the course of your day, tense your abs and feel them work. Good luck, work it out!
