Stomach Fat Loss – Dream Or Reality – You Be The Judge!

Everyone wants a flat stomach. Those unsightly rolls of fat certainly don’t assist when you are trying to impress the opposite sex on the beach. They are also unhealthy and can cause problems for you in later life. So whether you are interested in stomach fat loss purely for vanity or you just want to stay healthy into old age, then read on.

Let?s Get Started

One of the biggest mistakes people make when trying to get a firm flat stomach is to do heaps of exercises like situps and various other torturous regimes, in the false hope that they will get a six pack stomach. The reality is somewhat different, because what happens is that…yes, your abs will get stronger and you may well have a six pack, but nobody is going to see them because they are buried under all those rolls of fat!

Yes, you guessed it, you need to burn of the fat first and then, only then, after working on your exercises and your nutritional plan, will you be able to display that enviable flat stomach.  I know, I know! It hurts to think about having to plan this regime properly, but has anything worked up until now….if it had, you wouldn’t be reading this!

Ok! What Do We Do Now?

First you need to put a realistic, doable fitness and diet plan into place that you will be motivated to follow without fail. Nobody is going to castigate you for not sticking to the plan, but at the end of the day, if you don?t do it, the only losers are going to be you and your little (or big!) fat attachments!

The Dreaded Exercise

Your exercise regime does not need to be ridiculously hard. This is not a torture plan, you should enjoy the exercise and on this basis, 3 times a week is more than enough. Time spent exercising should be between 30mins to 1 hour.

Exercises should be of the aerobic variety, to burn those calories off. You can save the Arnold Schwarzenegger exercises for later when you really feel ready for the burn!. The exercises can be things such as using the treadmill or the bicycle…they just need to make your body burn calories.

Remember to talk with the coach at the gym before you begin, to ask them to design a set of exercises to suit your needs.  These exercises should not overstress your body, but at the same time should not be so easy that they have no effect. Review this plan on a regular basis with the coach at the gym, to ensure your success.

On the days when you are not exercising, try going for a gentle walk for 20 or 30 minutes, or play some football with your kids….anything just to keep the ball rolling (no pun intended!). What you will then find is that your body will become accustomed to activity every day and you will feel like a different person after a relatively short period of using this plan.

Now For the Food Part

Next you need to consider the food part! You need to bear in mind that the fat didn?t find its way onto your stomach all on its own. It had some help….well actually, a lot of help….from yours truly…you know what I mean…too much beer, fat, rich foods etc etc!

You need to educate yourself with healthy eating habits or that stomach fat loss just isn?t going to happen. It isn?t difficult, if you use a bit of common sense…steer clear of those Big Macs and all that greasy food, Eat fresh fruit, fresh vegetables and homemade food whenever possible. The results of a good diet plan, together with your exercise regime should be nothing less than dramatic, so long as you stick to the plan!  To make it easier for you, I have also included a link to a great resource which will show you exactly how to achieve effective stomach fat loss through proper nutrition. Good luck.
