Burning belly fat is not as complicated as it seems. It is possible to burn belly fat faster, but first we need to understand three basic factors that will determine how we can burn belly fat. Those factors are: quality of our food intake, increasing our energy expenditure and monitoring the frequency and decreasing stress in our lives.
Belly fat burning exercises are complemented by the quality and quantity of the food we take in. There should be an avoidance of processed foods, cookies, fast food and sodas. Throughout the day, we should increase the frequency of our meals to 5-6 times per day, eating meals that are balanced in all components of the basic food groups. When we control the amount of food we eat, we can optimize our workouts and allow our bodies to utilize and burn fat to achieve that flat stomach.
By increasing our energy expenditure to greater than our food intake level, we can tap into the body's fat burning capabilities to help flatten our stomachs, where the fat is accumulated. When we expend more calories than we take in, our bodies will search for the next available energy source, which will result in increased burning of belly fat.
An increase in our activity level will in turn build muscles for that particular activity, thereby increasing our lean body mass. With the increased muscle development, metabolic processes also increase, which also increases our body's proficiency to burn fat as an energy source even after physical activity.
When our bodies are in a stressful situation, they react by releasing a hormone called Cortisol, which tells our bodies to preserve fat and prepare for an emergency situation. That fat is thereby stored in our stomach area.
Fat accumulation in the stomach area increases the risk of developing high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke and diabetes.
By managing our stress, we can help control our stress levels and thereby allow our bodies to burn the belly fat through eating right and increasing our metabolism through exercise.
Burning belly fat is not complicated. It just takes some discipline to commit to making changes in our physical activity, diet and stress management. By doing a little bit every other day, you can achieve the results you want and burn that belly fat permanently. - 16650
