How to Lose Fat on the Lower Stomach

Nearly every person who needs to lose weight, whether its 50 pounds or just a few pounds to tone their body, has a sagging lower stomach. Can you target just this area for losing weight and fat?

Since your body doesnt have to consult your conscious mind on where to remove fat, it chooses these locations in a seemingly random manner. In other words, no one knows why we lose fat where we do! With this being the case, we cant intentionally spot reduce any part of our body. Actually, this is a good thing, not a bad one. By to reducing your entire body, you are shaping and toning it to peak performance! Lower stomach fat is one of the most difficult to get rid of, so the rest of your body is going to be in great shape too as you work off stomach fat!

It all starts with a diet low in fats and calories. Find how many calories per day a person of your height, gender and age needs, and subtract 200 calories. This isnt much of a decrease, but youre going to be doing calorie-burning exercise, and starving your body just makes it hold on to the really stubborn fatlike that on the lower stomach. Design your diet so that you get 50% of your daily calories from complex carbohydrates, such as whole grains, brown rice and fibrous vegetables, 30% of your calories from lean and skinless meats, poultry and fish, and 20% from fats. Your body needs fats, but choose healthy, naturally occurring unsaturated fats from some whole foods and pure vegetable oils.

Aerobic exercise not only strengthens your heart and increases circulation for more efficient delivery of oxygen and nutrients throughout your body, but it also raises your metabolism. The higher your metabolism, the more fat and calories your body burns, even while youre resting. Do some type of exercise every day, for at least 45 minutes, alternating days between aerobics and strengthening exercises. There are some activities, such as swimming, using a rowing machine and walking that actually are considered as both. Give your body an entire workout with resistance weight training or Pilates exercises that tone and strengthen your muscles. Both Pilates and RWT have exercises that target each muscle group in your body, but you must work out your entire body in order to prove to it that no one muscle group is more important than the rest, so it will deplete fat stores instead of eating lean muscle for energy.

Believe it or not, your posture plays a big role in losing lower stomach fat and getting your lower abs back in shape! Sitting and standing tall, shoulders back, chin high, and spine straight, contracts your abdominal muscles. When youre sitting, keep your feet flat on the floor, and pull in your abdominal muscles, youll definitely feel the difference! Walking, standing or sitting, keep those abs in and make it a habit to breathe deeply, pulling the air all the way down into your tummy, before exhaling normally.

Make good posture a part of you now, and by the time youve lost your lower stomach fat, youll already be in position to show off your new body to its greatest advantage!
