Exercise To Reduce Belly Fat

Can you exercise to reduce belly fat?

Of course you can.

It’s not only possible, it’s generally recommended.

But while you are putting time into those lower ab crunches and ball exercises, don’t forget your overall fitness.

One study put 366 sedentary men and 462 sedentary women on a 20-week cardiorespiratory fitness training program and found that they lost significant abdominal adipose tissue or belly fat.

These researchers have shown that the cardio exercises significantly reduced total body adiposity as well.

This proved true for both white and black, both men and women.

The scientists measured BMI or body mass index and total adipose mass with underwater weighing. Abdominal subcutaneous and visceral (the dangerous kind) adipose tissue was measured with computed tomagraphy.

At the end of the cardiorespiratory training, individuals who achieved at least moderate fitness showed the most significant belly fat loss (Janssen, Fitness alters the associations of BMI and waist circumference with total and abdominal fat, Obesity Research, March 2004).

What is a cardio workout?

Cardio workouts include running, jogging, bicycling, soccer and other active sports, rollerskating, rowing machines, jumping rope, trampolines, and high resistance elliptical machines.

Need an easy start for your overall fitness program? Simple walking programs are also great for your heart.

Aim for 30 minutes daily and focus on your breathing to work those abdominal muscles better.

So, grab your music, put on those walking shoes, and take off!

Remember, always check with your physician before you make healthy lifestyle changes for diet and fitness.
