belly fat! exercise?

You can't spot reduce. It's overall body fat you need to reduce which is your diet.

There is no way to do it. All you can do is try to lose weight and it will come off in time.

You can't spot reduce......

Are you just doing cardio? Cardio will burn calories, is great for your heart, and builds stamina.

Resistance training will help shape your body. I like pilates......it works your entire core. This helps to make me "appear" slimmer....I'm standing taller, and kind of hold things in a bit.

you can't spot reduce, when you lose where it comes off is something that you can't control

but, I've been doing pilates for 4 years, and now that my weight is dropping my tummy is looking and feeling thinner, I and feel the muscles in my core as i walk and it feels great
I do pilates for core stability becasue of medical issues that I have, but it has really helped tone and strengthen my core

other core stability exercises are litkly to help too
and any sort of strength/resistance/bodyweight will help

pick a plan/style/class that suits you, that you like and that you can stick with ENJOY

Squatting is the best thing in the world.

You need to strenghten your core muscles. Planks, squats, lifting and lots of other things, that I don't know the correct term for. (If, I could draw a picture, I'd show you). Anyhow, I developed fairly strong core muscles in my younger days, by swimming, dancing, walking, and pretending my naval could touch my spine, if I sucked my stomach in long enough. I've later learned, that's a form of Yoga lol Google, will probably give you the answer

I did read that HIIT is more effective than stead state for burning fat, esp belly fat.

"While it's true that you can't spot reduce, research shows that high-intensity interval training (HIIT) may be more effective than traditional cardio at getting rid of stubborn abdominal body fat. Plus strengthening your core muscles can help create flatter, more drawn-in abs and improve your posture, contributing to a slimmer, sexier waistline" - See more at: http://www.shape.com/fitness/workouts/15-minute-belly-fat-blaster-workout#sthash.wF5voZmt.dpuf

No offence, but that's not quite it, either. I can't believe nobody knows the basics. Didn't anyone learn anything in PE? Lol

In PE I learned to be picked last :P

But seriously, we did crunches in P.E.
And no, crunches do not reduce abdominal fat. Crunches help strengthen ab muscles. But regardless of what my Lotte Berke Method DVD says, Muscle Does NOT Eat fat.

You still have lose fat all over, even if you do side-bends or sit ups.

This is what I was getting at www.brianmac.co.uk/articles/article084.htm

My thread covered that. No need to do hours of core exercises to reduce belly fat. If you do strength training with progressively heavier weight it engages your core in a natural way. I've had two kids (while I was obese) and I managed to get abs with no direct core work. I'm not saying you can't do ab exercises, I'm saying it's possible to have a nice stomach without it.

It's pretty much the same PE exercises we all learned as kids, at primary school. We had two hours

So two hours a week of exercises that 10 year olds do is adequate for an adult to magically lose belly fat? No.

You can't technically spot reduce but in the past I have done some type of ab work everyday. I changed it every day but I still made sure it was part of my workout. It helped to tone those muscles which helped change the shape of my mid section.

okay so i finnaly went from a size 44 to a size 38 jeans, tryed a few on yesterday and omg they fit but i look horrble in them only due to belly fat just on the front basically and i am wondering if there any way to work on that section while working on everything else what exercise could i do daily or 6 days a week to help reduce this section?

atm i work between a elliptical and a treadmill

Damn, where's Vince Delmonte when you need him?

Different strokes for different folks

Yes and no.

Everyone has to have a calorie deficit to lose fat. You can't pick where the fat comes off from.

Everyone can eat in their own manner (paleo, vegan, clean, IIFYM, etc.) and everyone can workout in their own manner (running, lifting, zumba, crossfit, martial arts, etc.).
