Question:

Are there any good workouts to actually reduce fat in my mid section?

I'm trying to lose fat. I already have amazing abs, but they're hidden under a layer of fat...I don't want to take any pills or get a lypo-whatever to get rid of my fat, because I don't want to affect my health in a negative way. I'm looking for excersises that I can do with little or no extra equipment.


Answers:

You cannot target fat specifically. No matter how many sit-ups you do, you won't lose fat in your stomach. The best thing you can do is to run! Cardio exercises burn fat, but NOTHING you do will specifically target fat in one area (i.e. stomach, butt, thighs, etc.). "Target exercises" build muscle only. Therefore you can have an incredible six-pack under your belly but the abdominal workouts won't do anything for the fat.

Running is really the best exercise there is. Cardio equipment such as the elliptical machine and arc trainer target thighs, so you build thigh muscle and essentially just make them larger without burning fat. Running is cheap too, just a good pair of shoes, comfortable shorts and shirt, and you're ready to go!
