20 WAYS TO BURN BELLY FAT

You’re likely reading this article for one of two reasons. Either you’ve tried to burn belly fat in the past but ultimately not made the desired changes to your body shape, or you want to make your first attempt at stripping away fat to sculpt a leaner and more defined physique. Either way, you’re in the right place.

There are no ‘best exercises’ for burning belly fat. To do that, you need to be in a calorie deficit, and the quickest way to achieve that is to take a look at what you’re eating and learn how to track calories.

Burning fat effectively isn’t easy – if it was, everyone would be walking around with washboard abs. And while this article will help you learn how to lose belly fat, it should be noted that there is no way to aim fat loss at just one area of the body (what’s known as ‘spot reduction’). Instead, overall fat loss is the name of the game: achieve that, and your stomach will follow suit.

But once you know the best ways to eat and train – as well as how to sleep better, stress less and enjoy life more – you will start shedding your unwanted fat faster than you ever thought possible. 

Of course, the usual mantra of eat right, move more and subsequently end up in a calorie deficit (the key driver for fat loss) is the number-one solution for sculpting a leaner physique, but there are ways of reaching that point in an accelerated timeframe.
