1 How Do I Get Rid Of This? The Truth: How to Burn Abdominal Fat

2 Burn The Fat: A Full Body Approach
Unfortunately, you can not “spot burn” a particular body part that is accumulating excess fat. This means, you will need to take a full body approach towards losing weight to manage a particular area.

3 Your Best Bet Cardio, Cardio, Cardio! Abdominal Exercises:
Cardiovascular exercise burns more calories than other forms of exercise. Abdominal Exercises: While still beneficial, they will only strengthen the muscles behind the layer of fat tissue. They will not burn away the layer of fat covering the muscles as most people try to do!

4 Then what should I do? Perform 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercise 5 days a week. Walking, swimming, bicycling, etc. Walking is one of the best cardiovascular exercises to engage the core muscles. As you walk, the core muscles begin to fatigue. Focus on maintaining proper posture through the duration of the walk to achieve the maximum benefits.

5 Additional Help… Weight Training helps increase lean muscle mass.
Lean muscle has a higher resting metabolism than fat tissue. This means your body will burn more calories in a resting state! Focus on a total body strength routine Perform repetitions on 8-10 of the major muscles groups on 2-3 nonconsecutive days a week.

6 Additional Help… Yoga and Pilates Core Exercises
Great options for increasing core strength and flexibility. When done in conjunction with cardiovascular exercise, these practices can help decrease the midsection while improving posture. Core Exercises Beneficial for building lean muscle mass in the core area and improving posture.

7 Stability Ball or Mat Ab Crunch
The same basic movement: The goal is to contract the abdominal muscles and curl the shoulder blades up to a 30 degree angle. Stability Ball - perform the exercise with a stability ball supporting your lower back with your feet on the floor. Mat Table Ab Crunch - perform the exercise while lying on a mat table with your feet flat on the mat.

8 Reverse Abdominal Curl
This exercise will target the lower abdominal muscles. Position yourself in the same position as if you were performing a regular abdominal curl Contract your lower abdominal muscles to pull your legs back over your stomach area
