How Much You Can Change Your Abs in 2 Weeks
Most people who want more defined abs do a couple extra crunches or eat half their pint of Halo Top rather than the whole thing - but Iulia Danilova, a 25-year-old Los Angeles mom to a 2-year-old daughter, recently pulled out ALL the stops in an effort to sculpt her own core, posting before-and-after photos taken two weeks apart.
Although she started out pretty freaking fit in the first place, her transformation shows exactly how much you can realistically change your abs by following safe, science-backed weight loss strategies - like doing cardio and reducing calories from carbohydrates - which can lead to loss of belly fat and help those abs shine.
Leading up to her before photo, Danilova lifted weights for 45 minutes to an hour up to six mornings a week, working different body parts throughout the week. (See? Said she was fit!)
