Spot Reduction Is For The Laundry
· Can you give me an exercise that will get rid of the fat rolls in my abdomen?
· What type of exercise is good for gets rid of the fat rolls on my back right underneath the bra line?
· The back of my arms have an extra layer of fat there? What exercise can I do to get rid of it?
Spot removal only works in the laundry, not on your body. There is simply no such thing as localized fat loss, no matter what type of exercise gadget is used and no matter what type of exercise is prescribed. Fat is lost evenly throughout the body.
Many ladies focus on exercising a particular body part which is hidden by fatty tissue in an effort to "burn away" the localized fat and expose toned muscles.
This is merely a vain attempt and won't amount to much more than "your little secret".
No amount of tricep dips will reveal that little muscle on the back of your arms that we all
so desperately want, if your body is storing an extra pound or two of fat there. Performing abdominal exercises using any one of the currently marketed "ab-isolating" devices, or even doing appropriately prescribed sit-ups, does little or nothing to rid the waistline of fat. These devices and exercises have value in conditioning muscles in the abdominal region but are only a small part of your fat loss prescription.
If you're struggling with a "trouble spot", here's the deal. To remove the fat from your trouble spot, you need
to increase your overall percentage of lean muscle mass and take a good look at
your eating habits.
5 Tips Reveal The Well Toned You
- Perform a variety of strength training exercises 3 or more days a week. This will increase your body's fat burning ability 24/7 and tone the underlying muscle giving you a better shape and improved muscle tone, which has a slimming effect.
- Perform aerobic exercise for at least 20 minutes 2 times a week.
- Replace sodium, sugar and preservative laden foods with fresh whole unprocessed foods.
- Keep your diet balanced, eating a healthy ratio of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. And, keep in mind, calories do count. Eating too many calories - whether they are fats, carbohydrates or proteins, will keep you well padded.
- Drink water.
