Why can't i loose my belly fat?!
Question:
Why can't i loose my belly fat?
I walk 2.5 miles to work one way and 2.5 miles exactly home every day. so that is 5 mile's everyday plus one day i week i run as far as i can about 1 mile on and off until my calves hurt. i do 50 sit ups every day. as far as my diet goes i try to watch what i eat but sometimes once or twice a week i treat my self to some take out. i try to compensate the special food by running or walking at a faster pace. but now i find myself with a great pair of calves and still i have a belly... what am i doing wrong other than tightning down on my diet even harder? im 29 years old and my height is about 178.
Answers:
Sit ups won't do a thing about removing the layer of fat. They just tone the underlying abdominal muscles.
It's all about your diet. I would suggest keeping a food diary for a week to see exactly what you're eating and when you're eating it.
Once you've recorded an example of your weekly diet, I would suggest consulting with a physical trainer and having him or her design a diet and exercise plan for you after reviewing your diet diary.
