How can you loose excess stomach fat? – It is possible to reduce stomach fat by doing sit ups, But that alone is not enough. It’s of course imperative to make sure you eat well balanced diet and combine that with proper exercises. It is vital to do exercise in the correct way in order to lose weight.

Sit-ups are of course one of the best exercises’s to make our stomachs tighter, it strengthens our stomach muscles resulting in a tighter belly. These muscles are essential in caring for our lower internal organs as well as helping us to breathe correctly. Stronger tummy muscles also assist in improving our posture and in preventing back pain.

 

Dieting alone is not the best way to loose stomach fat, because it’s vital that our stomach muscles are also exercised. Our stomach muscles are largely covered in fat and only reducing our calories consumption is not a healthy way to loose weight. In order to burn our excessive fat stored in the stomach area we have to do exercises, which will also help us to lead a healthy life.

 

It is important to consider that at least three to five times a week we have to do exercise in order to burn our excessive calories. So start with simple exercises and build up your routine slowly gradually adding more variations and longer durations.

It is clear that every one is busy in this fast moving world, so when selecting a fitness programme it is important to consider our individual life styles. You might want to think about hiring a personal fitness instructor to ensure you start off your fitness regime under professional tuition. They can even visit you in your office or at home and help avoid tiresome and time consuming trips to the Gym. London has a great variety of Personal Fitness Trainers available simply search on google for someone in your local area (e.g Personal Trainer North London or Personal Trainer East London); Most major cities should be able to provide a similar service. Just make sure they have proper accreditation with such organisations as “The National Register of Persoanl Trainers” (NRPT).

 

Steve Cooper who is one of the senior employees at State biomechanics said that he looked at 15 different exercises for the abdominal area. His study measured the electrical impulses of our muscles at the end of each exercise and identified 5 of the exercises that most helped the muscles work harder.

 

He came up with the conclusion that the reverse curl, bicycle crunches, captain’s chair and of course Sit ups were the exercises that caused the muscles to tighten most effectively, The best part is all of these exercises are sit-up related exercises.

 

The Bicycle crunch can be performed in the following way, You should lie down and the lower back should be against the floor, the arms should be placed behind the head, place the legs at a 45 degree angle to the body. Then bring the left knee to the chest while the right leg should remain straight out. Then repeat with alternate legs (basically like cycling but whilst lying down). You should do this until your muscles start to feel fatigued.

 

The Reverse curl can be performed as follows, You should again lie flat with your arms at your side this time. Your knees should be bent with your feet flat to the floor. Then lift your Knees to your chest making sure your hips leave the floor. Exhale as you do this. Slowly hold the position and then gradually release your self back to the original starting position inhaling as you do so. Again repeat this until you feel properly fatigued.

 

The Captains Chair ab exercise ideally uses a piece of low tech Gym equipment; however it can be done at home as well. Using a chair with no arm rests; you sit with your hands on either side of the chair, and hold the majority of your weight through your arms (don’t actually lift off the chair though). Then keeping your Knees bent slowly lift your feet of the floor, hold and slowly release. Again continue this until you feel fatigued.   

 

It is appreciated to consult a fitness professional and also your local Dr before doing these workouts.

It is essential to work hard & often in order to gain tight abs, You will get positive results by following a proper dieting and exercising regularly.
