Stomach????!

Stomach????

Ok so I am really confused right now. You see when u wake up in the morning your stomach is skinny & after you eat its big and well how can you make it skinny again? I know the diet thing but will it help sort of? If you do sit ups then will it help? I have been doing 40 sit-ups and about 50 or as much as I can do crunches everyday. Will all of that help in about how many weeks? Will my stomach be skinnier than before after I eat when I wake up? I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP!!! PLEASE IF YOU READ THIS AND CAN STILL ANSWER, PLEASE ANSWER AND GIVE USEFUL ADVICE!! PLEASE!!

Its natural after you eat for you to be bloated from not only the food intake but water and salt intake as well. Your true weight is first thing in the morning when you get up before eating or drinking anything. So if you have a flat stomach in the morning, that's its normal shape.

Of COURSE there are exercises to help shrink the waistline. I dont recommend situps, as you can hurt your back. Instead, the following is a daily ab workout that can have you seeing major definition and sculpture in 2 weeks to a month.

50 reverse crunches (lower abs..lay on the floor on your back. pull your knees into your chest then back down)

50 normal crunches

50 lateral crunch, each side (lay on one hip and crunch up)

It may seem like a lot, but trust me when I say that will effectively sculpt your tummy.

With that said, you need to get rid of the excess fat around your midsection while you are toning it. To do this effectively, work in 20 to 30 minutes of cardio training 3 to 7 days a week (3 minimum, but every day if you want). I suggest the following:

I suggest you start off with a 5 to 10 minute cardio warmup. Walk on the treadmill at a low speed for about 5 minutes, then increase it a bit, then at least 30 minutes of high impact, FAT burning cardio. What do I mean by this? Your heart rate MUST stay within 65 to 70% in order to burn fat. Anything higher will be a waste of your time as far as shedding pounds.

So, to find your heart rate range, subtract your age from 220, then multiply by .65 for the minimum heart rate, and .70 for the maximum. For example, if you are 20 years old, 220 - 20 = 200 x .65 = 130, 200 x .70 = 140 So you will want to keep your heart rate between 130 and 140 beats per minute for at least 30 minutes.

After, its important to cool down for at least 5 minutes. Lower the speed and inclination of the machine gradually until your heartrate returns to normal.

more tricks to sliming the waistline:

consume 3 servings of non fat fruit yogurt every day. It not only aids in proper digestion, but helps shrink stomach fat.

Stay positive. Stress produces a nasty little hormone called cortisol, which guards belly fat instead of burning it. (relacore is an over the counter weight loss suppliment that helps control or eliminate cortisol).

Drink at least 2 liters of water a day! Trust me, its a key component to weight loss and toning.

Get plenty of sleep at night in order to rest and recuperate your muscles.

I hope this helps. Good luck.
