Why Most People Don’t Maximize Their #IWANTABZ Results

Effort Without Direction Is Just Exhausting!

The I Want Abs contest isn’t about shortcuts, hacks, or who can suffer the most. Visible abs come from consistent training, disciplined nutrition, solid recovery, and showing up even when motivation is low. The people who change the most aren’t doing more — they’re doing less, better.

If you want to maximize your effort during the contest, your goal is simple: stop wasting energy and double down on what actually moves the needle!!

Sweating isn’t the goal. Progress is.

• Lift weights to keep muscle while losing fat

• Focus on compound moves (squats, presses, pulls)

• Use conditioning strategically, not endlessly

• Push intensity through load, tempo, or pace

• Track your lifts so effort is measurable

👉 If you don’t know what you’re improving, you’re just guessing.

Abs Are Revealed Through Nutrition

Training can’t fix inconsistent eating.

• Eat protein every single day (yes, even busy days)

• Keep meals simple and structured

• Avoid all-or-nothing thinking

• Fuel workouts — don’t starve yourself

• Stay hydrated to support digestion and performance

Abs don’t show up because you “tried hard.” They show up because you ate consistently.

Recovery Is a Performance Multiplier

You can’t train at max effort if you’re exhausted.

• Sleep matters more than another workout

• Stress increases cravings and water retention

• Hydration affects energy and digestion

• Recovery lets you train hard again

Fat loss happens when your body feels safe — not when it’s wrecked.

Supplements Support Output (They Don’t Replace Effort)

Supplements work best after the basics are in place.

• Pre-workout → better focus and intensity

• Aminos → muscle support during a deficit

• Electrolytes → hydration and performance

They enhance consistency. They don’t replace it.

Daily Execution Wins

Abs are built on boring days.

• Schedule workouts like appointments

• Prep protein ahead of time

• Keep steps and movement consistent

• Track weekly progress, not daily emotions

• Show up even when motivation dips

Max Effort isn’t doing everything. It’s doing the right things, repeatedly, with intent.
