reps of calorie deficits.4

Foods which you can eat and stay in a consistent caloric deficit. You can't exercise fat and there's no such thing as spot reduction. The best exercises you can do are fork putdowns and table pushaways, because fat loss is driven by your calorie intake.
Read the thread linked above, best advice you'll find.3 -
Sadly you can have an awesome set of abs hidden by a layer of fat, the only way to do it is a consistent caloric deficit and even then each of us loses fat in different places first (for me it was my face and arms)1

10 sets of fork put-downs
10 sets of table push-aways
10 sets of calorie deficits
Repeat until stomach fat is gone6 -

Ride a bike at least 8 hours a week. Or go for a 60 - 90 minute run 6 days a week.0 -
Deficit for weight loss, adequate protein and a progressive resistance program (either body weight or weight training) for muscle retention (more muscle = leaner). If you are doing compound lifts (deadlift, sqaut, OHP, Chest Press), then you will engage your core muscles.

Unfortunately, you can not target fat loss with exercise alone.
A calorie deficit, a progressive lifting program, and some protein will be your best friends.0 -
But this wouldn't matter if there was no calorie deficit. There are lots of people that gym 60-90 minutes a day and still don't lose weight. And that's usually due to not being in calorie deficit.SingingSingleTracker wrote: »antonio27scala wrote: »What's the best way to loose stubborn stomach fat? Any good foods or exercises?

Yes, yes - I am well aware of that, and I did expect a response or two such as yours. "Lose weight in the kitchen"....and what not which I firmly espouse. CICO rules - whether one is exercising or not. But based on the OP's silly Axx handle of Antonio Scala (sic as they didn't even spell it right) and only 2 posts - I'm going with the theme that my response was more than enough. In fact, I shouldn't have even wasted (or rather waisted) my time.
Assuming the OP is and has been losing weight, but is stuck with attacking the dreaded "belly fat" that can be for many the last thing to go is what predicated my post. Well, that and morning coffee drinking pre-work boredom.
If you spend as much time as I prescribed doing endurance on the bike or running, it is very hard to eat enough to not be in a deficit. Anybody who is at the level of pumping out at least 8 hours of endurance a week has long since learned not to out eat the exercise and would most likely not even be asking about stubborn belly fat.
So - whether we get "Antonio Scala (sic)" on board or not to cut that stubborn stomach fat with CICO, exercise, or both - I figure 8 hours minimum a week on the bike or running will be a just reward.

You weren't by chance thinking of Antonin Scalia, were you?0 -
Just pointing it out because there WILL be people who'll take this and go out and ride for hours on in and still not get the results they want because they believe it's EXERCISE that will remove the fat, when the truth is it still comes down to CICO.SingingSingleTracker wrote: »

But I get what you meant to say. And personally, out of all my cardio I enjoy bike riding outside the best.
