stomach fat

you can't target it. keep losing elsewhere and it'll eventually go away.

Can't be done. You don't target fat. You reduce overall body fat. Stomach is often the last place to go.

It will eventually go down the more you lose. In the meantime, do some tranverse ab exercises to work your inner core. No, they will not get rid of the fat, but once it does come off, you will have nice, flat, and strong abs.

Iam walking on a treadmill that auto inclines with speed Iam at 5mph and 6%uphill 30 minutes 2x daily it has tighted my belly
and I have lost 11lbs.in 2wks :flowerforyou:

has anybody got any suggestions or tips on how to target the fat on my tummy? diet or exercise related, thanks

Well, they say built muscles help burn cals/fat while inactive. I would think crunches would help, but it is a really difficult area...perhaps the hardest.

Good lucK!

The best results I have seen, and I creep though A LOT of pages is using the following in some fashion.

best results for flat tummy.

With barbell
Squats,
Dead Lifts
Rows
Bench Press
Clean Press

Those don't spot reduce either, sorry.


Two things make a tummy flat or not flat:

Posture
body fat


Ok there is a third:

Gas or no gas

Oh, and fourth:
A full belly can look round as you start to lean out. Actually even a full bladder can round you out

I think you missed the point.

that's fine and good, but it isn't targeting fat on your stomach.

These plus the old adage that you can build a six pack in the kitchen!! If you want to lose fat, your body is going to decide where to take it from so you need to reduce total body fat and a good combination to do that is by utilizing compound lifts and eating right. But no matter what you cannot out run a bad diet!!

If you tend to store fat in your tummy and not in your hips, then going with a low-carb diet may get you there. It worked for me when I used South Beach Diet in 2005. Right on the cover of the book it says "Lose the Belly Fat First".

As the saying goes, "Abs are made in the kitchen." The only way to reduce stomach fat is to reduce overall body fat. We all have a six pack under that layer of fat.

I really wish there were a way to spot reduce belly fat. I close my eyes, I click my heels, and unfortunately it's still not so. I noticed my arms and legs get thinner first. It made my belly appear even larger in comparison, even though the measuring tape said my stomach was getting smaller too. Keeping at it eventually got my stomach fat down, and I didn't look so disproportionate.

Now I save all of my wishing power for candy bars that make you gain weight in the boobs.

LOL! I dont' think he was saying they spot reduce as much as he was saying to lift heavy. Read between the lines please.

oh. It says it on the cover, so it must be true.

Because the publisher and author have no stake in whether or not hte book sells. Anything they put in/on the book must be true. No bias.

2 x 145 = 290
