What's going on here?
-
Just thinking about my future
-
Yeah, your future is another set.
-
Previously, Evan and I trained like superheroes,
-
now, we're back and we're getting abs.
-
I gained some injures on my shoulders on my biceps,
-
I did have a little abs showing,
-
but it wasn't like raging six-pack.
-
So this time, I really excited to see how far I can go.
-
I think nutrition, is gonna be way more stretch
-
changing my eating habit was hard the first time around,
-
and can't even imagine what's gonna be like now.
-
So our trainer Steve Zim was great,
-
he tell us everything we need to know about fitness.
-
We're going back to him to get ripped again.
-
Abs, core muscles.
-
I think it's gonna be hard core.
-
Hi, I'm Steve Zim, and we're here in my gym,
-
"A Tighter U" fitness studio, in Culver city.
-
And next six weeks, I'm gonna have Kelsey and Evan
-
get their dream outs.
-
This time there's gonna be seven days of work out,
-
two of the days are just cardio.
-
I was kind of hoping it'd be very similar to last time,
-
we took it a step up.
-
You gotta put your time in it
-
it gonna be at least 20-25 minutes of abs,
-
every time you come in.
-
We're gonna have to do full work outs, too.
-
This isn't just abs, it's part of the story.
-
We got everything's gonna fit in the place.
-
When it comes to abs, you got to think of it
-
in four parts, we've got upper, middle, lower and sides.
-
Everybody likes the muffin top an ab,
-
where they just a lot of crunches,
-
well let's squeeze everything down.
-
We're don't like to open everything up,
-
very important if we teach you how to
-
control you abs, and then lean them out
-
and not bolt them up,
-
and we don't just do sit-ups without weight,
-
you need to add weight.
-
You add weight to everything else we do
-
in the gym, why don't we add weight
-
to the sit-up?
-
With Kelsey what we're trying to achieve are
-
the Elevens.
-
She doesn't want to over develop the muscles
-
in her stomach, but she wants to have the nice line
-
that separates.
-
She's got a flat stomach, but she wants take it to
-
another level.
-
With Evan, he wants to get those cut abs,
-
where you go, "WOW... Boom Boom Boom!"
-
and that is a different kind of work out.
-
And with Evan, especially, he's gonna use a lot of
-
weight on his abs.
-
Abs are three layers of muscle,
-
people don't realize that.
-
So we have to really work it as if we were
-
would work another muscle.
-
We use the Hollywood Supps BCAAs,
-
and melatonin.
-
This keeps your body from cannibalizing muscle,
-
when we're dieting really hard,
-
a lot of times what happens is muscle
-
starts to break down.
-
We can't have that happen.
-
The melatonin helps you sleep deep,
-
the deeper you sleep, the more recovery you get.
-
You're rejuvenated, you're ready to go again.
-
This is the way, we do abs, let's get to it.
-
At the end of the first day of training,
-
Steve straight up told me,
-
we're gonna have to stop here
-
because you're not gonna be able to
-
get out of that tomorrow.
-
If we continue going , you won't be able to
-
feel you abs tomorrow, you'll be like
-
"Ugh..."
-
And I was like, Steve, we've done this before,
-
and like, it's not gonna be that bad.
-
Oh, god, I can't move.
-
So yes the first week was painful,
-
again, I literally rolled sideways out of bed.
-
Steve really challenged me the first week,
-
I was feeling like hot fire ants
-
all over my abs.
-
And I thought all the exercise for the abs
-
would be similar to the ones we did before.
-
Breathing, it's different, stretching it's different.
-
We would add weights, he made me do
-
a lot of crazy exercises.
-
It was like doing the circuits.
-
Giggling is hard, when your abs hurt,
-
and I giggle a lot, can you tell?
-
What if I go out, like have some wine,
-
a like a meal with my friends one night.
-
It's that gonna ruin it?
-
I swear to you, if you drink,
-
tomorrow they won't look the same.
-
-Just in one day, -In one day
-
You'll blow, it's really important that you
-
stick to the food, you stick to the water,
-
you stick to everything I give you
-
because otherwise, we're not gonna see
-
what you want to see.
-
I'm not really sorry, I'm just being honest.
-
To get abs, you have to be really tight
-
on your nutrition.
-
No processed sugar, sugar is a number one thing.
-
We want to keep our carbs, the vegetables,
-
and fruits.
-
Water is your number one best remover fat
-
from your body.
-
We have to drink water.
-
We want to keep our proteins up,
-
we want to make sure we're eating
-
enough calories that are our body is not
-
losing muscle, but it is tearing down back
-
Because when you go so low, you're body
-
starts to eat its own muscle.
-
And when you eat muscle, it's not
-
gonna develop into six-pack.
-
All we're doing is gonna get you tiny.
-
Do not starve yourselves please,
-
then you're not gonna make good muscle.
-
I knew that diet is the way you can mess up
-
getting abs.
-
Food is very precious, all the food that I didn't finish,
-
all the snacks I hesitated to eat,
-
and I never knew I was gonna miss
-
the smell of alcohol.
-
You know a lot of people hate the smell of
-
alcohol, it smells so good!
-
What is happening to me?
-
So last night I had a dream that I
-
kept eating these airhead extremes.
-
I'm having dreams about my diet!
-
There were so many company events
-
that were happening.
-
There's always booze, there's always cheese,
-
there's always snacks.
-
How's that pasta?
-
So good, Evan, are you sure you don't want one?
-
Can I eat or drink anything at this event?
-
No, the answer is no.
-
The answer is no
-
It's absolutely...
-
Crap
-
The social aspect was really difficult,
-
it's really hard when all of your friends are
-
enjoying meals together, and you want to
-
participate.
-
They all look at you, like crazy.
-
Why are the best things in the world the worst for you?
-
Ah! I hate this diet!
-
So it's week 3, and unfortunately
-
I injured my ankle, it's been in pain for last three days,
-
and hard to use.
-
My body wasn't looking as fit as it had been before,
-
it felt like they were backtracking.
-
And I was getting really frustrated,
-
and Evan's allowed to eat brown rice,
-
so I thought was allowed to eat brown rice.
-
But our diets are different because the results
-
were looking forward different.
-
So, I kept kind of minimizing what I could eat
-
to the point where I got really frustrated
-
in the middle because all I was eating,
-
was grilled chicken with nothing on it,
-
and broccoli.
-
And that was it, that was all I was eating.
-
I'm going insane, I'm going insane.
-
Kelsey is going through a period where she's
-
getting stuck on food,
-
she's not feeling good about herself,
-
she hurt her ankle,
-
her abs, didn't look good.
-
She hasn't done the cardio, so she has a
-
little layer.
-
It's more puffs, it's not really pat.
-
She's depressed about that, we ran over
-
a whole new food thing,
-
we revamped her, we're getting her excited,
-
and we're gonna figure our another way of doing cardio
-
until her ankle's better.
-
We're gonna use the row machine and other things
-
she uses her upper body, so that we don't
-
get her stuck.
-
What Kelsey's going through happens to everyone,
-
I promise you.
-
Don't go crazy, really start to think.
-
Slowly but surely passed by that plateau,
-
it's easy to look at yourself in the mirror everyday,
-
and not see the progress,
-
and to get frustrated.
-
For me progress was a lot better by third week maybe,
-
started to see abs on my body,
-
and it was crazy, everything was going smoothly.
-
My diet was good, exercises were good,
-
I was getting enough sleep.
-
Until, I find out I was losing weight
-
and because I started as such a low body fat,
-
it's not ideal for me to lose weight
-
because if I'm losing weight
-
that means I was losing muscles.
-
I'm kind of freaked out because I really really
-
did not want to shrink.
-
With Evan, what we're noticing that he's coming down
-
maybe too quick.
-
We have to say, whoa! Let's hold on a second.
-
What do we need to look at?
-
Maybe we should add a hundred calories
-
to your food.
-
Maybe we should come down a little
-
on the cardio.
-
You have to self adjust as you're going on
-
because I don't want you to do a hundred
-
miles an hour.
-
A lot of people they eat very little once again,
-
they do too much cardio.
-
And yes we see the abs but yes the muscles
-
starts to go away.
-
We want to make sure his proteins
-
are at a high level,
-
so we don't break down the muscle.
-
It's so important.
-
So finally the middle ground where I'm not
-
eating too much,
-
but I'm not starving myself,
-
was very very difficult for me.
-
Thankfully as the time went by,
-
I figure out what to do, and I stayed on the right track.
-
Week 5, I was planning some cosplay
-
I decided that I was going to wear a crap top,
-
like walking around with your midriff exposed,
-
it was scary I've been working so hard,
-
I wanted to look good,
-
and I got pictures back.
-
And I was super surprised that my abs are showing,
-
so it was so crazy!
-
All my friends like blown away.
-
One of those things were sometimes you have to
-
step back, and you don't see the progress,
-
but when your friends don't see you for a little while,
-
they see the progress.
-
I am changing, my body is changing.
-
I'm working hard, doing the proper diet,
-
that's healthy, and getting the results.
-
I was so excited for the final day,
-
'cause one, I get to eat fried chicken again,
-
and two, I was eager to find out
-
how much I've changed.
