Your Best Exercise to Lose Belly Fat

One thing I get asked all the time is "what's the best exercise to lose belly fat?", so I'll answer it to the best of my knowledge right here, because more than likely there are thousands of people out there still struggling with loosing weight around there belly.

Here's the answer to your question: There is no one best exercise to lose belly fat! Because you can't "spot reduce" stored fat on any part of your body.

If you really want to lose belly fat, it is important you understand the fundamentals of how weight loss works, generally for men belly fat is the last place to go, women don't have the same problem(around hips). With that being said, I have outlined some important steps you simply need to follow to see great results.

Most people believe that in order to lose belly fat you have do repetitive sets of abs crunches, sit-ups etc. Truth is, I only work my abs every other day and even then with a max 10min workout! You Don't need to perform lots of crunches to lose belly fat, you need to work your bigger muscles because they burn more calories resulting in less fat around your stomach!

Here are three simple steps to help you lose belly fat:

First of all you need to create a calorie deficit in your body, on top of this you need to create an environment which complements this. (fat burning metabolism)

step 1- Restrict amount of calories. Start by watching your carb intake, a lot of carbs tends to turn into fat, basically limit your bread, rice and sugars.

step 2- start strength training. By building muscle you are effectively burning 3 times more calories than normal cardio, studies have been proven that 45mins of cardio will keep your metabolism working for 3-4 hours later.Muscle building will ignite the metabolism for up to 48hours later!

step 3- by doing some cardio you will also see faster results for losing belly fat! Don't be fooled into thinking that weights alone is enough...try to run/walk/bike at least 1-2 days a week.

If you follow these 3 steps consistently, then you will know what the answer to "the best exercise to lose belly fat". As you can see, there is not just one answer to this question, take your time and don't get upset if you fall off the horse every now and then, just make sure you get back on it!
