June 18, 2010   Categories: Lose Fat

So you’re looking for some “belly fat exercises” to trim your waste line and improve the calibre of pretty much apiece aspect of your life. Just think about it – you’ll look better, you’ll feel better, you’ll have more energy and you’ll be more confident than ever. If only it was that easy. If only there was a couple “belly fat exercises” that you could do to rid your stomach region of the excess fat forever. Well, unfortunately, their isn’t.

As a certified individualized trainer with over a decade of experience under my belt, there’s nothing more irritating than seeing hopeful, yet unknowing people basically being lied to in countless magazines ads and late night infomercials. There’s no illusion pills that will give you a six pack and there’s no “belly fat exercises” that will trim your mid-section on their own – no matter what the equipment manufacturers are telling you.

Sure, performing “belly fat exercises” will help strengthen the abdominals but from an aesthetic standpoint, what good are strong abs if you still have a huge layer of fat covering them? “Belly fat exercises” are not the solution to long term fat loss. So, rather than relying on “belly fat exercises” as your be-all, end all solution to weight loss, here’s what you need to do to lose the weight and more importantly, keep it off.

Create a calorie deficit – this can be accomplished through proper intake habits and a sound exercise program. By a “sound exercise program”, I’m referring to implementing multi-joint/compound movements that build lean muscle tissue while burning a lot of calories in the process. You can’t just perform a couple “belly fat exercises” and think that will be enough to rid your body of its “spare tire” and “love handles”.

You also need to take small portions of food frequently throughout the day. Doing so will keep your metabolism revved up so you’ll burn more calories – all while getting the important nutrients your body needs to function properly. Adding lean muscle is also important as apiece pound of lean tissue on your frame will increase your metabolic rate by 50-100 calories. So theoretically, the muscle you have on your legs and arms will help burn the fat off your stomach.

Remember, there’s no such thing as “spot reducing”. Once again, you can’t just perform a few “belly fat exercises” and anticipate to lose your stomach fat. Performing “belly fat exercises” will help you burn calories (all workouts burn calories) and sure, “belly fat exercises” will help strengthen the abdominal region so when you end up losing the weight via more effective methods, all those “belly fat exercises” that you did will leave you with some nice definition in your mid-section. However, keep in mind that your main priority should be on intake right and following a well designed exercise program.
