How David Beckham Maintains His Fitness in Late Thirties

So you want to lose the beer belly and recreate a David Beckham washboard stomach? Well it's not as hard as you think. We all kept a close eye on Beckham during this year's World Cup. Girls drooled and blokes went green with jealousy at the sight of his six pack. But achieving that toned tummy is not as hard as it looks - just follow our nutritional and fitness advice and you could soon have a body to die for, or tone up a bit at least!
One of the most recognizable sportsmen on the planet, Beckham has enjoyed the spotlight since making his Premier League debut for Manchester United in 1995. His workout and diet are the secret to his killer, ripped figure. David prefers total body routines, versus focusing on one body part, to get the lean, muscular look he‘s known for. And he also performs compound movements rather than isolation exercises for the same reason.
Diet plan of the football star - David Beckham
•Don't cut out all fat - Stick to Mediterranean-style fats like olive oil, fish, nuts and avocado. These will help to keep cholesterol levels lower without risk of heart diseases.
•Cut out carbonates - This means no full-sugar fizzy drinks, even the diet versions as these drinks can cause bloating and water retention.
•Calci-yummy - Cut out full-fat dairy products and instead use low/non-fat products that are high in calcium. Research has shown that people who included non fat calcium sources in their diet lost more weight than their calcium free counterparts.
•Get drinking! - No, not the six pack of Stella - get drinking water. It's great for flushing the toxins out of your system and can also help you burn extra fat. Weight loss experts believe that drinking only one ounce of water is effective for fat burning - but try and drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses a day, it can only do you good.
•Reduce starch - Many people over eat carbohydrates. Try and cut your usual portions of rice, pasta and potatoes by half. In their place have a cupful of vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, or green beans. While a cup of white rice contains 240 calories, a cup of steamed veg has only 50 - you do the maths!
•Pump up the protein - It's important to increase your protein by an extra 20 per cent, if you are planning on reducing your total calories. It will maintain your muscle mass and keep your metabolism at a high gear.
•Creatine - Well-known for being used to pump up muscles, it can also help burn calories - as many as 100 a day. Try taking five grams a day after your workout for at least six weeks.
