As we all inch towards the end of the winter season, we will be getting rid of jackets and jumpers and will be out in our summer clothes very soon. Hence people would want to get rid of the belly fat which might get exposed during summer. Well, this blog briefs about ways to beat belly fat.
• AVOIDING MID DAY SNACKS: Dieticians recommend that if a person eats 500 fewer calories than the daily requirement every day, then the person will be losing about 0.45 kilograms every 7 days which is about 1.8 kilograms every four weeks, which is pretty incredible. Eating extra snacks in between the 3 main meals of the day will fail the person in achieving the calorie deficit target. High-calorie snacks are a big NO for those who target belly fat loss. This needs high intensities of mind control which gradually develops and not in a second.
• ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF EATING: As you are eating only 2-3 times a day, does not mean that you would eat immensely at these times. All the meals must consist of an adequate amount of protein, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, etc. This helps in the overall process of belly fat reduction. By adequate amount, it means that the daily food intake of the concerned person must be 3 fist-sized servings of carbohydrates, 2 palm-sized portions of lean protein, and two cups fulls of vegetables or salad. Salad includes a lot of fiber which enhances fat loss. The day must start with a glass of lemon water. This will act as a magic potion that helps you clear the stomach, remove toxins from the body and boost digestion and metabolism. Low-calorie milk or yogurt can also be added to the diet chart. In addition to that good amount of water must also be consumed as it helps in belly fat reduction as well. Here are some ways to eat smart.
• AVOID SUGAR: - If your diet consists of high sugary food or high-fat foods like fast food, then you must need to avoid that. Because of high fructose content, the fat layer develops near the abdomen region leading to other health issues as well in course of time. If anyone has a sugar craving, then that can be consumed in limited quantity in the form of natural fruits like grapes, apples, watermelon etc.
• EXERCISE REGULARLY: Although 90% of the target is achieved by having the proper food, the remaining 10%, i.e. performing exercises is also crucial. A person having a target to reduce belly fat must do a combination of both cardio and strength training. Exercises related to the abdominal muscles must also be done. Back dominant exercise is also necessary. He/she should divide the workout routine properly and should follow it with dedication. If the person is busy in his work life and is not able to take some time for training then he/she should buy a proper treadmill or exercise bike so that after work hours a certain amount of time is given to the body. Powermax provides a wide range of treadmills and exercise bikes that are very well in the affordable range and of different categories. There are different kinds of exercises that one can perform on one treadmill. Give this blog a read for a better understanding. Some of the fat-burning exercises are the plank, burpees, mountain climbers, medicine ball slams, etc.
• KEEP A POSITIVE MINDSET: This is the foremost requirement that is needed for any kind of transformation that you are planning to do. Always keep a positive approach towards your goal and keep working hard for it. In such cases meditating every day for some time can keep your mind calm.
• POSSESSION OF GOOD MIND CONTROL: Some people eat to quench their boredom in their lonely time and not because they are hungry. Everyone needs to understand that having good quality food and in sufficient quantities is all that the body needs. In other instances, if you come across food and if you are genuinely not hungry, then you should not eat that food, no matter however good that is. This generates mental stability in the human being and he/she will be able to have good control over the craving for food.
• RELAX: Stress causes our body to pump out a hormone called cortisol which causes and retains belly fat. If the person has tried everything to lose weight and is not able to do so, then the factor resulting in it can be not relaxing much. So, it is highly recommended to do an activity that you love to do or something that makes you happy.
CONCLUSION All the above-mentioned tips are necessary for the reduction of belly fat. All it needs is dedication, discipline, and hard work. Other than this, you need to have a well-structured lifestyle that will enhance the process of your desired target.
