Do you want to lose your belly
fat? Want to know the best exercise
for a flat belly? Most people are
aware that belly fat is very difficult to eliminate and requires a lot of
effort. Unfortunately, after falling into a sedentary lifestyle and poor
diet, the belly is the area that reveals more weight. Everyone knows that
to reduce the belly fat, the association of physical activity with
balanced nutrition is essential.
Considering the need to wear a more stylized and healthy
figure, nowadays we have found multiple ways to lose weight in that area and
achieve the desired measures. However, many continue to fail in their attempt
to achieve a flat stomach, since, beyond a good diet and slimming creams,
it is essential to perform physical activity. This habit is decisive
to increase energy expenditure and also to tone and strengthen the muscles of
this region.
The best exercises to lose
belly fat are plank and side plank. Some call it an iron, board or abdominal plank.
Plank
Plank is an isometric exercise that uses your own weight to
tighten the muscles and keep them in a stationary position. It is very
simple, but effective. You just have to keep the body stiff as a board and
you get a job focused on shoulders, arms and, of course, abdomen. When
done correctly it is possible to strengthen the lower back, the buttocks, the
legs and, of course, the abdomen.
It's benefits
- Increase the strength of the torso.
- It improves balance.
- It helps maintain the correct posture.
- Brand abdomen and tone your buttocks (as long as you have only 6% body fat).
- Reduce back pain.
- Increase the flexibility of your muscles.
How to do it?
- Lie on your stomach, place your forearms on the floor and lean on your toes.
- The back should be erect, the shoulders just above the elbows and the buttocks slightly raised.
- Hold this position for 30 or 40 seconds, rest and repeat three times.
- As in the previous case, try to do it every day so you can increase the resistance time to a minute or two.
The side plank
The lateral plate on the floor is an exercise to
strengthen the abdominal area. It is a movement similar to that of the
front plate but with variations. One of them is the position, instead of
turning it upside down you will do it on your side, which is a bit more
complicated when it comes to maintaining balance.
To do this exercise comfortably you will need a mat. Of
course, it is an exercise not very simple if the intention is to make long
sessions. It is quite easy to get out of balance since the posture
maintained usually changes throughout the exercise due to the
difficulty. So if you are a beginner, do not overdo the repetitions and do
the movement slowly.
We want to show you how the side plank is correctly
made on the floor and its main benefit.
It's Benefits
- It works on a specific area of the body: the lateral abdominals.
- However, also involves other muscles such as the rectus abdomens, oblique abs, deltoids, and trapezius.
- If you manage to make the side plank on the floor, you will notice how your abdomen is gradually hardening and you will eliminate the fat located in this area.
How to do it?
- First of all, place the mat on the floor and laterally on it. Rest one hand on the mat and the other hooked to the body, then rise until you have one arm and feet on the floor.
- The arm you have placed on the mat you have to flex and the feet must be together. On the other hand, the legs kill them straight trying that the weight does not fall down.
- In this position, the movement begins. Being an isometric exercise, the effort is made to maintain the position. Try to hold as much time as possible in this position.
TIPS: When you hold the
position in the isometric exercises it is very important not to change the
posture. In case you move, you can become unbalanced and you will no
longer be working properly. If you are starting in fitness try first to do
the plank.
