If firming up your midsection is on your to-do list, you’re not alone. Getting rid of stubborn belly fat is one of the most common goals for people looking to lose weight and get fit. And while targeted fat loss or spot reduction does not work, you can tighten and tone this area — along with the rest of your body — by exercising and following a healthy diet. Belly fat is hard to eliminate Reducing belly fat is often more challenging than dropping inches from other parts of the body because doing so relies heavily on diet, says Caley Crawford, NASM CPT, and Director of Education for Row House. “We often think if we do enough sit-ups, then we’ll get a flatter stomach; however, abs also happen in the kitchen,” says Crawford. “So, if you’re looking to lose belly fat, it’s crucial that you partner a strong and healthy diet with your exercise routine,” she says. You’ll also need to consider your age and genes. According to the Mayo Clinic, they can play a small role in where you store fat.

by admin in Workouts 0 comments
Pull-ups are a great exercise to add to your next full-body or arm strength circuit, but they can be intimidating for those who don’t know how to do them. Don’t be intimidated!
