Burn Stomach Fat
How To Burn Stomach Fat Quickly
If you’re looking to Burn Stomach Fat and get rid of your love handles, you’re likely going to need to change your current diet and exercise regime. There are no short cuts if that’s what you’re looking for!
Diet and exercise are the fundamentals to burning stomach fat and losing weight. Diet pills may help, but you’ll still need to reduce the amount you eat and do some exercise. Personally I prefer the natural way of looking after my body, rather than popping pills that may or may not be good for me!
If you’re like me, you’ve probably been through phases of regular exercise and diet, followed by months of undoing all of the good work you’ve done.
In my case, in the past, it’s usually been an injury or lack of motivation that has led me to give up the fitness regime.
So what are the answers?
Injuries are usually a result of overtraining. This can be training too hard, too frequently or ramping up the training too quickly in terms of intensity. Get the intensity and frequency right, and you should avoid injuries, I’ve learnt this the hard way over the last few years.
In terms of getting results quickly, whilst diet and exercise are essential components for fat loss, not all diets and exercises are created equally! Eat the ‘right’ foods and do the ‘right’ exercises and you’ll see results quickly. Eat the wrong foods and do all the wrong exercises and you’ll soon lose your motivation!
What continually surprises (annoys) me is the number of personal trainers and gym instructors that give out the totally wrong advice. I’ve seen it at all the fitness clubs I’ve been to! Members are given the same repetitive plans to stick to for weeks, that are designed to deliver minimal results!
So what are the optimal actions you need to burn your stomach fat quickly?
You must eat a balance of natural (unprocessed) foods, with a daily calorie intake that is less than the number of calories you burn.
You need to focus your exercise on intensity rather than frequency and time
You need to lose the hundreds of crunches and sit-ups, they won’t burn your stomach fat.
- You need to avoid repetition in your training regimes
- You need to focus on targeting all over body work outs, not just your abs
- Burning fat in regard to your stomach is more about diet than traditional ab exercises.
Control the foods you eat, and the amounts, together with whole body work outs and you’ll see your stomach flatten quickly. Losing your belly fat will naturally expose your six pack. Crunches and sit-ups simply don’t load the abdominal muscles highly enough to define them or burn any fat.
Instead of doing hundreds of crunches, focus on working your whole body to get the biggest possible metabolic response. Increasing your metabolic rate will to really burn your stubborn stomach fat. Your workouts need to be high intensity, with short rest periods, with focus on working the largest muscle groups of the body, rather than specific smaller muscles like the biceps, triceps, or abs. Working the bigger muscles hard will boost your metabolic rate significantly.
When it comes to frequency, you should not perform muscle building exercises more than once or twice a week, particularly when using high intensity exercises. Allow your muscles time to recover and grow before breaking them down again. Less frequent weight training with higher intensity will burn more fat and grow your muscles much quicker than doing lots of reps with lighter weights four times a week!
When I ran the London Marathon a couple of years ago, I lost nearly 3 stone in four months. Obviously I was doing a lot of cardio then, but what really boosted my weight loss was this Fat Burning Guide .
Not only did it burn my excess fat away, it helped me strengthen my stomach muscles enormously, giving my body the support and stability needed to get me through the rigorous training schedule in such a short time.
To burn stomach fat quickly, I highly recommend you get the guide above, it’s not that expensive and is the best of it’s kind. I’ve covered the basic theory above, but the guide goes into real detail.
