How to Lose Belly Fat! 

Abdominal fat loss is simple with the right information, getting rid of belly fat has never been easier!

A common misconception among those who are unsure How to Lose Belly Fat (and fat from other regions) for their beach body is that fat can be depleted from a single area (such as stomach fat loss) by doing Targeted Fat loss exercises for one area (such as crunches).

WRONG! This method will simply strengthen and increase the underlying muscle if this area, it will not help to Lose the excess Belly Fat in that region.

What most people struggling to lose belly fat fast fail to understand is that body fat is put on proportionally around our body. For example, if a person puts on (or sheds) 20 pounds of Fat, it maybe deposited (or lost) primarily in the hips rather than the arms. 

This all depends on genetics, our postures and other factors.

In order to decrease the Fat in a certain area of the body an entirely different approach must be taken. 

Secret to Get Rid of Belly Fat

Lowering Belly Fat doesn’t need to be difficult. I know you’ve often heard this before from various sources be it on TV, the papers and so on. However, this time it is coming from an impartial voice who isn’t trying to sell you anything and who doesn’t make money from believing what I say. So believe me losing Belly is very simple.

It doesn’t require you eating celery sticks for every meal and it doesn’t involve you exercising at a specific heart rate for a specific length of time.

If you have ever been to France and witness the Parisian women you’ll always notice that they have remarkably slender and elegant figures. 

What amazed me even more about Parisian women is that they eat extremely rich and what would be consider –in Health and Fitness terms- unhealthy food. 

However, despite the croissants, the white bread, the wine, and the chocolate and so on they still manage to maintain their beautiful figures. So, what is there secret?

It’s simple really; they just have small portions of all these foods. Instead of eating a whole cheesecake they would only have a slither instead of polishing off a half a bottle of red wine they would only take a few sips.

This all makes sense as they always eat just below they Calorie intake for maintenance of bodyweight. Most of us though always eat over out Calorie intake which results in gaining Belly Fat.

My advice to you for easy Belly Fat Reduction is to get into the habit of eating smaller portions. Eat what you want just more slowly, in smaller doses and less frequently like the Parisians way! 

Best Approach to Lose Belly Fat

This approach must be in the form of total body Fat Loss as there is no natural way to achieve Targeted Fat loss on just one area alone!

To lose belly fat fast is SIMPLE... It requires 3 straight forward things.

3 aspects of Diet, Exercise and lifestyle should be combined for significant Belly fat reduction. Diet being most important, Exercise coming second and Lifestyle last. This approach is the best way to lose belly fat.

The positive aspect of total body fat loss approach is that the Fat is usually cut from the area that has the most percentage of fat, which is commonly the most troubling.

In this case, Subject A finds the abdominal region to be the most troubling.

If this individual, Subject A, has an overall weight of 150lbs and a body fat of 25% that would imply that this individual has a body fat mass of 37.5lbs and a lean body mass of 112.5lbs approximately.

This 37.5lbs of fat would then be deposited according to the percentage of body fat in an area.

To calculate the percentage of fat in an area a full body skin fold must be completed. 

Initial Belly fat deposit

So if for example, that this person sheds 20lbs of fat from his/her figure there area fatloss would usually be of the are with the most percentage of BF.

Ideal body fat percentage

The majority of health professionals would agree that under 20% for men and 25% women is an acceptable level. Anymore and the individual is considered overweight.

While being a few percent overweight is not detrimental to a persons health, the real concern arise when one extends their body fat levels into the 30 to 40% ranges. This level, regarded as obesity, can cause numerous, potentially serious, health defects with the individual.

Body Fat Percentage Calculator

The Skin fold is taken using an instrument called a callipers. These callipers should be available at your gym or any good fitness store at roughly $10.

Ten measurements are recorded around the body in mm using the callipers.

--Chest—Upper part of the chest, next to the armpit, pinch skin vertically.

--Bicep—In between shoulder and elbow, pinch skin vertically.

--Tricep-- In between shoulder and elbow, pinch skin vertically.

--Abdominals—2cm from bellybutton, pinch skin vertically.

--Side—In between bellybutton and your side, pinch skin horizontally.

--Back—In between armpits, 5cm from spine, pinch skin vertically.

--Lower back—In line with upper pelvis bones, pinch skin horizontally.

--Thigh—In between knee and top of leg, pinch skin vertically.

--Calf—In the belly of the calf, pinch skin vertically.

Now, add up the 9 measurements that you took with the calliper. 

Divide by your weight in pounds. 

Multiply the result by 27. 

This should equate to your Body Fat.

Note:

All measurement should be made on one of the body

Calliper should be squeezed and held for 2 seconds with equal pressure at all points of the body

Undertake the Skin fold test in the morning
