• Stomach fat is the hardest fat to remove from
  your body. It is also one of the most dangerous
  kinds of fats that you can carry on your body!

3
TIP 1

• Dieting without exercising and proper nutrition
  may burn muscle mass and not fat which is NOT
  what you want! Instead, build muscle mass and
  decrease abdominal fat through proper exercise
  and nutrition.

TIP 2

• Sit-ups and crunches do not help much when it
  comes to burning belly fat. The burning sensation
  you feel during these exercises are your
  abdominal muscles strengthening, not the fat
  burning off.

TIP 3

• In order to melt away tummy fat, you must focus
  on the overall weight loss reduction of your
  entire body. Instead of focusing on your stomach
  only, you should workout your entire body
  including your stomach.

TIP 4

• Eat food that contain monounsaturated fats in
  them, such as olives, avocados, walnuts,
  pistachios, and peanuts. These items help banish
  belly fat while lowering your cholesterol.

TIP 5

• When it comes to exercising, it is not only
  important that you workout 3-4 times a week, but
  that you keep consistent in your workouts! You
  should be doing something active everyday to aid
  in the permanent removal of your excess chub.

TIP 6

• Add circuit training to your workout schedule if
  you want to reduce belly fat. Circuit training
  combines intense aerobic exercises with strength
  or resistance training. Check out our great
  classes at the Rec Center for help!

TIP 7

• Replace sugary foods and drinks with servings of
  fresh fruit, vegetables, and whole grains. You
  can speed your metabolism by eating 4-6 small
  portions of food a day instead of 1-3 large meals.

10
TIP 8

• A serving of protein before and after working out
  helps you build lean muscle that burns fat.
  Protein helps protect your muscles prior to a
  work out, and assists in recovery after. Use
  protein powder to shake up a quick shake prior to
  and after your workout.
