If you want to know how to burn stomach/belly fat effectively then you’re reading the right article. Listed below are a few simple home exercises that are uncomplicated yet effective. So long as you perform these exercises on a regular basis and combine it with some cardio and a healthy diet, you should start to see some results soon.
Crunches
Your back should be lying flat on the floor. With your feet flat on the floor and your stomach tucked in, raise the upper part of your body to a 45-degree angle. Hold this position for around 3 seconds and then slowly bring yourself back to the original position. The standard is doing 3 15-rep sets. A big no-no is pulling on your neck as this can cause a lot of problems such as neck pains and headaches.
Double Crunches
To focus on the lower region of the abs, you can combine crunches and what’s called a knee raise. Your back should be flat on the floor and your legs raised. Your knees should be bent at a 90-degree angle such that your calves and the floor are parallel. You then pull yourself up the same way you would with regular crunches.
Torso Twists
A good way to work out your oblique muscles is by performing torso twists. While standing upright, rotate the upper part of your body from left to right. The legs should be kept straight for torso twists to be effective. As with the other exercises, repeat this process 15 times for 3 sets.
Standing Side Bends
Also keeping an upright position, you must also make sure to keep your arms parallel to your body and your legs straight. Without rotating your hips, just tilt your upper body from left to right. Similar to the torso twists, standing side bends will also target the oblique muscles. GP
