Question:

Loosing ab fat part two question??

Ok I had asked before if wrapping your stomach let's say with plastic or whatever else to sweat that area more while working out will work better than wearing nothing...I do workout ( an hour and 15 min of cardio 4-5 days a week)...I usually wear something wrapped around my stomach to sweat that area more....and it works for me..im wondering if it;s just a gene thing or is it really working???


Answers:

you CANNOT spot reduce.

in order to lower the fat in that area, and see your abs (or just flatten your stomach) you need to reduce your overall fat.

men and women's fat collects differently and some areas collect fat more than others.

If your goal is weight loss then 30 minuites of HIIT (high intensity interval training) is going to be far more effective than an hour and 15 min at a constant speed.

(google it)

also circuit training (google it) should be included to build lean muscle- the more muslce you have- the higher your BASAL metabolism is (google it)- in turn the more calories that you burn.

You should also realize that no matter how much you work out, abs are built in the kitchen, not the gym.

if you are not eating properly, then you will not lose anything, and are likely to GAIN weight as your eating might tend to overcompensate or rationalize eating poorly with the fact that you are working out regularly.

You need to learn about proper nutrition- not a DIET but a lifestyle change that fits you.

which is why most people drop diets because diet plans don't take into account your preferences, or your medical issues (allergies, etc.).

when people talk about a specific "fad" diet, you only hear about success stories not the failures. And not the fact that more than half of people leave these diets within a few months. which in some cases where the diet can damage your health (FAtkins diet) it is good.

You like ice cream? good have it sparingly or every other day in a very small portion. Eat healthy otherwise and you aren't depriving yourself.

Like pizza, have it once a week- or better yet make substitutions to create a healtier version of it. use whole wheat crust/pita and mix part-skim mozzarella with a more flavorfull chese so you put less chese on it- and mix in brocoli chopped with the sauce, and flaxseed and maybe even put chicken or ground turkey (99% lean) on it.

learn the science behind it and you can make your own food decisions to fit into your life and lifestyle.
