How to Lose Weight Around Your Stomach

Losing weight from any area of the body is a process that requires dedication and time, and should be undertaken with nutrition and safety in mind. Contrary to popular belief, performing exercises that target areas of the body do not necessarily aid in removing fat from that area. Healthy and balanced steps must be taken to remove fat from any area, including a healthy diet, aerobic and cardiovascular exercise, abdominal exercises and weight training.

Instructions

1

Perform aerobic and cardiovascular exercises for at least 30 to 60 per workout. Moderate the intensity of cardiovascular activities such as biking, running and stair climbing.

2

Eat a diet low in calories, fat and sugar, with emphasis on fruits, vegetables and protein. Avoid excessive carbohydrates, but stay within a healthy caloric range.

3

Integrate weight training into your exercise routine after about two to four weeks. This will help increase your muscle mass, which can help raise your metabolism.

4

Tighten and tone your abdominal muscles by performing core intensive moves, including sit-ups, crunches or V sits. As the cardiovascular exercise burns away the fat, these muscles will become more and more visible.
