The quickest way to lose belly fat is a combination of healthy eating and exercise. The exercise can help you lose fat all over your body and help you tone your belly muscles. There is no particular diet or exercise that can target belly fat specifically. But you can target those muscles and tone them while you’re burning fat from everywhere.
First, find an eating plan that works for you. Many people prefer a low carbohydrate diet. The lack of processed starches and sugars can help reduce abdominal bloating and gas. This can help your stomach seem smaller right away.
Other people prefer higher carb diets like those that include things like bread and pasta and they follow a very low-fat plan. Some people do much better on this type of plan than on a low-carb diet. The only way to know what’s right for you is to try one or the other and see how it feels.
The best eating plan the world won’t work for you if you can’t stick to it. So choose low-fat, low-carb, low-calorie, whole food, vegetarian or any kind of eating plan that you can stick to and then follow that plan.
The next thing to do is to work out an aerobic exercise plan. It doesn’t have to be anything more than brisk walking 4 to 5 times a week. But you need to burn more calories than you consume so that you can melt fat away. You’ll lose fat all over your body, and while some places might slim down quicker than others, there’s no way to target your stomach with this type of exercise.
The third thing you need to do is to do specific exercises that will tone your stomach area. While this won’t make the fat in that area go away any quicker it will reduce the size of the area because you’re tightening up the muscles. There are several exercises you can do.
Any exercises that say they focus on your core area will help make your belly smaller. But the specific exercises that work well are crunches, and any exercises that involve bending or turning at the waist. If your back is in good health then touching your toes repeatedly can help whittle your waistline.
Twists and even full sit-ups, if your back can handle them, will also help. Using a hula hoop is an excellent way to trim your waist. Even kickboxing exercises like Tae Bo routines, because of the punching from side to side that helps turn you at the waist, can help slim your waistline down.
Crunches are one of the easiest things to do that don’t require any kind of equipment. In a safe because you’re not doing a full sit-up but just raising up enough to tighten your stomach muscles and tone them.
Doing all three of these things together is the quickest way to lose belly fat. Healthy eating, aerobic fat burning exercise, and spot reducing exercises focusing on your belly will help you slim your waistline as quickly as possible.
