How to Lose Belly Fat?
To burn abdominal or belly fat, it is very important to remain active. You should aim to reduce fat from your body as a whole, not just from abdominal or "fat belly". Body fat is like one organ, that is throughout your body, and you can't take it off from just one spot, viz. belly.
Belly Fat Burning Foods
1. Eat high protein Foods: Foods high in protein and fiber are the best kinds of food to eat for burning fat around the middle. This is because protein needs more energy to digest than fat. So eat low calorie dairy products, beans, whole grains, oatmeal, eggs, etc.
2. Discard processed foods and desserts in your diet. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables, salads with olive oil dressing, beans and wholegrains to get dietary fibers. Eat less salty foods.
3. Stabilize your blood sugar by eating every 2-3 hours. Know about food glycemic index and eat vegetables, fruits, nuts, berries, and whole grains with low glycemic index values.
4. Eat a hand full of nuts and seeds daily. They contain good fats that fight the bad fat in your belly and keep your cholesterol under control.
5. Drink 8 glasses of water daily to avoid fluid retention.
6. Drink milk which is high in calcium.
7.Remain physically active to burn calories. Different activities burn different number of calories. Choose an activity suitable for you.
# Do cardiovascular exercise (aerobics exercise for at least twenty minutes, five times a week) like walking, jogging, swimming, bicycling, tennis, basketball, etc. You can also use a fitness ball. Remain in the target heart rate zone of the exercise intensity.
Aerobic cardiovascular exercise gives whole body movement which is better for reducing belly fat.
# Walking briskly for at least thirty minutes (in one stretch or in parts) puts all of the abdominal muscles to work.
# Add more mass to your muscles. Concentrate on all the muscle groups. Work down from the largest to the smallest muscles. Concentrate on these muscles in order: front and back of thighs, buttocks, back, chest, triceps, biceps, calves, hips, forearms and shoulders. Exercises with fitness ball can be used for all the muscle groups.
# Remain stress-free. Know the stress symptoms and stress management techniques.
# Breathe. Take a deep breath through your nose and deeply exhale through your mouth as often as possible.
# Right dress. Fabrics like cotton, silk and chiffon are more flexible. They will not cling to your skin hiding your pot belly.
