Because I’ll show you exactly why doing crunches, situps and running for hours is the worst thing you can do to lose stomach fat!

The wrong way to lose stomach fat is to think that you can “spot reduce” your fat from the stomach only… That’s a BIG misconception and makes thousands of people never reach their fat loss goals in a timely fashion. So what can you do in order to solve this problem?

The answer is simple! There is no quick or fast solution, only steady fat loss. Since you will need to lose body fat all over the body, and that in turn will also burn fat around the stomach, your best exercise plan is to work the biggest muscles in your body, that will need the most energy (calories) to work. So the best muscles to work out in order to lose stomach fat is actually your legs, arms, and chest, as well as your back… because these are the biggest muscles and increase your metabolism when stimulated.

So how do we stimulate these muscles? Is not running stimulating these muscles you might ask? Yes, but the problem with running for a long period of time is that you also burn muscle, not only fat. You want as much lean muscle as possible. That’s why marathon runners are so skinny, but lean. They burn fat, but also muscle. Look at 100 m dash runners, they have more muscle, so what do they do differently?

They are doing high intense interval training or sprints. This will help stimulate extreme fat loss and also boost your metabolism. This also helps stimulate the muscles and create an effective after burn.

Another important factor for burning abdominal fat is to lift some weights, by alternating exercises, such as squats, and push-ups. Alternate these exercises 2-3 times without resting. That is called a superset and is an extremely effective way to boost your fat burning machine.

The last component to losing belly fat is you diet. If you are eating fat burning foods that take up a lot of energy to burn, but also provide the body with the nutrients it needs, you are doing GREAT! The only hard part is to know what these are, but there are experts who know exactly what they are.

Some can be, brown rice, broccoli, spinach, oatmeal, lean meats and eggs.
