What You Should Eat to Lose Belly Fat?

 

Oatmeal, blackberries, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwis. You don’t have to necessarily change what you eat, it’s how much and when you eat it. Pay attention to replacing refined carbs; like white bread, crackers, and pretzels with whole ones like sweet potatoes, quinoa, and fruit.

 

If you exercise for more than an hour, you may need some additional carbs to fuel your performance and promote recovery on those days, try to eat more foods like vegetables, lean proteins, and fruit. If this is a problem at first then your workout routine and cardio should increase and keep a note of calorie intake.

 

How Long It Will Take to Start Seeing Results?

 

Usually six to eight weeks to see results when starting any weight loss or belly fat plan, everyone is different but your cardiovascular system should start responding in about two weeks. You can check your resting heart rate in most situations in the morning before and after just for your own curiosity. Should be lower meaning the heart is stronger now. Let’s get to work and let your goals become mine as well....

 

Trying to get a six pack, people usually get caught up into delusional ethics instead of the simple things like taking in fewer calories than you burn. Exercise is definitely a major way to help you move the calories, it is recommended removing sugary or processed foods and definitely cutting way back on alcohol. You would be surprised something that simple will work wonders and for most people it will make a significant difference. Keep some type of weight training involved as well as high intensity cardio then finish up with an ab routine before cooling down. Unlike other muscle groups, the abdominals can be worked every single day since they're comprised of smaller muscles than your legs, back and arms.

​

How many days a week should you workout to accomplish losing belly fat? That should depend on your schedule and routine, find whatever works for your lifestyle. 

 

Try to aim for two to three days of strength training, two to three days of cardio, and one rest day per week. If time is a problem try doing some cardio in between sets instead of resting 60-90 seconds. Once you get accustomed to the routine try doing doubles meaning a normal 2 day workout in 1, this usually applies to advanced training but can be accomplished with drive.

​

What exercises should I do? 

There are many different exercises that are effective. All exercises can be effective in helping you  build lean muscle and reduce fat all over. The key is that you have to be focused and follow the process along with understanding  that small gains lead to bigger results.
