(Food-Beverage-News.Com, June 23, 2012 ) Plano, Texas – Fitness website Fat Loss Tips You Can Use is sharing ways to lose belly fat as summer approaches. Belly fat or worse, abdominal obesity, can be attributed to factors which include caloric imbalance. Overeating and a sedentary lifestyle can also contribute to fat gain.
K. Chatman, owner of Fat Loss Tips You Can Use, said belly fat should not be seen only as an aesthetic problem but also as a health-related one. It is a condition that can be associated with cardiovascular disease and other less than ideal medical conditions.
“Wholesale body sculpting resulting from regular exercise such as ab workouts for men and diet modifications seem to help reduce fat all over the body including the abdomen region,” Mr. Chatman added.
To help reduce belly fat, individuals should participate in cardiovascular exercises that integrate interval training. For weight training, people should not focus solely on abs exercises but also on exercises that target every muscle in one’s core. Thirty minutes to an hour at least four days a week of moderately intense physical activity is ideal.
Eating healthy and in moderation coupled with physical activity can help counter fat gain in areas including the stomach region. “In general, follow a diet which includes vegetables, fruits, and protein. Favor whole grains and cut back on refined fare such as pasta, white bread, sugar, and so forth. Substitute saturated fats and trans fats for polyunsaturated fats. However, only consume foods with polyunsaturated fats in moderation,” K.A. Chatman said.
Finally, he pointed out that sometimes a large stomach could appear not only because of fat but also due to bloating. Bloating is caused by several factors which include constipation due to an inadequate amount of exercise, fluid, and/or fiber.
