#MakingMEGAinSouthAfrica

Happened last night was the launching of Mega Magazine in South Africa September 2014. In this issue Mega featured Erich Gonzales, Julia Barretto, Kathryn Bernardo and Maja Salvador and shot at Northern Cape, South Africa.

Among the four celebrities featured in this issue, this 2 are my favorites. This based from photo Ive seen from Mark Nicdao and Patrick Respect instagram.

I have always been a fan. I just love her beauty aside from the fact that this lady is so talented. I love her energy and how strong she is amidst other people bash on her whatever move/decision she does. A great celebrity to look-up to.

In this photo shoot you can see her regal and sophisticated beauty behind the bubbly and energetic personality. Her photo screams "I am the legal performer!" ;)

Would also add this... Maja Salvador look so stunning and regal with Rajo Laurel's creation at the Mega Magazine in South Africa September 2014 launching last night. I really love Rajo's design! Photo grabbed from Rex Atienza instagram.

Spell FIERCE and HOT...It'll be Erich Gonzales! After seeing the photos from this shoot I wouldn't wonder Erich will gain much more fans and followers because I just did. Her beauty is such amazingly goddess-like. Among the four celebrities in the cover Erich really standout. Even if you can see that she is behind other 3 celebrities your attention will always caught her face.

Pointers To Achieve Six Pack Abs Easily

Six pack ab strength training is not as hard as it looks. Most people spend way too much time working on areas that will never lead them towards the six pack that they've always wanted. Instead, if you were to focus on your metabolism, with a slight bias towards ab strengthening, you would be able to decrease your body fat, improve your stamina, eat more (not less), and get in and out of the gym faster.

Increasing metabolism requires proper nutritional habits, improved posture, and high intensity exercise.

By choosing balanced meals, sufficient calories, and appropriate meal timing you have an ability to demand more energy from your body during any given workout, thereby taking more away from each workout in less time. Improving posture leads to improved oxygenation of muscles, improved circulation, increased self-confidence, and improved cosmetics. High intensity exercise leads to lactic acid production, minuscule tears of muscles that require repair following bouts of exercise, and momentary muscular failure. These characteristics force your body to undergo a repair process that lasts days after leaving the gym, instead of the hour or two you may spend in the gym. Naturally, as with any process in your body, processes consume energy, and energy equals metabolism.

Decreasing body fat is a product of increasing your muscle to fat ratio (muscle:fat.)

The easiest way to do this is by adding lean muscle mass to your body, and then working on losing weight from there. Because muscle consumes more calories than body fat, you will be able to eat more, burn more off, and feel stronger throughout your day. Instead of restricting calories and feeling lethargic, you will be able to rise above and feel motivated to succeed the following day with your goals.

Eat more, not less.

Most people try to diet when they want to improve physique. What's more? They stay in the gym longer, but they have less to burn. Instead, think of food as fuel and exercise as fire. In order to keep the fire burning, you have to continually feed it fuel. Exercise is the same way. If you would like your body to function optimally, consider eating at least a snack every 2-3 hours. Preferably, your snack will look just like the balanced meal you ate earlier in the day, but a smaller portion. Over time, your body will learn to accept and use more calories, provide more fuel to the fire, and dramatically improve your results in the gym.

Six pack ab training is achievable if you know what you're doing. Increasing metabolism, decreasing body fat, and improving dietary habits leads to faster and longer lasting results.
