As with every other fatty tissue in the body, the best way to burn abdominal fat is to embark on an exercise regime which targets the whole body. This doesn’t need to be a strenuous endeavour or require costly equipment – a simple thirty minute workout accompanied by a five to ten minute strength training activity could help you to tone your stomach and burn calories. If you can do this simple workout at least five times a week, you will see results fairly quickly. Your own body weight will do the hard work here, so there’s no need for a gym membership or expensive equipment. If you want to increase your strength training even further, you can do sessions of repeated squats or pushups, which also work very effectively with dumbbells or other weight training equipment.
The specific abdominal exercises which are used are effective in bringing out the tone of the muscle, but this is only of use once the fat surrounding the area has been removed. If you do intense abdominal activities before you’ve done this you won’t see results, as the muscle will firm up beneath the fat but won’t be visible. By doing general body exercises such as walking or jogging first, you can burn calories and build up to doing more targeted exercises. It will also help you to build up your fitness level and increase your metabolism, helping you to burn more fat overall and see a greater feeling of health and wellbeing.
