Belly Fat Loss With Exercise

Belly Fat Loss With Exercise

by Kareem F Samhouri, DPT, CSCS, HFI

Belly fat loss with exercise can be challenging for someone that doesn’t fully understand how fat loss works in the human body. In truth, noticing fat loss in your abdominal region is usually last. Fat loss normally occurs in all other body parts first, with special exception to the hips, buttocks, love handles, and belly.

High intensity exercise is known to reduce body fat percentage, thereby constituting a more targeted fat loss program. Compound movement sequences in an exercise program, as well as proper flexibility and strength requirements with each exercise, dramatically improve results with fat loss programs.

Body weight resistance exercise will help almost ninety-percent of clients achieve the results they are seeking in the gym. Many people are focused on lifting heavy weights for better results, but this is not necessary.

Heavy weight lifting, several times per week, is not necessary for most people’s goals. Most people come to personal trainers with the intention of losing fat, decreasing body weight, and improving stamina. In order to this effectively, I cannot think of a better way than forcing the body to be able to resist its own weight through dynamic and challenging movements. Some of my favorite body weight exercises include the burpee, squat thrust, pull up, plank, push up superset, and reverse lunge.

All of the above examples are efficient with belly fat loss because they are considered to be compound, or multi-joint, movements. Whole body movements are proven to increase the number of calories spent inside and outside of the gym, while simultaneously improving fat loss results.
