Losing belly fat is almost every person's dream - at some point you would have wondered what having a nice stomach would be and feel like. The fact of the matter is it isn't truly that difficult to lose belly fat. There are hundreds of exercises created just to "spot-target" the abdomen and the belly containing fat. However, none of these "spot-targeted" exercises work to actually make you lose belly fat. Your body has fat all over the place. It is built within the whole of your body. This being said, you cannot just target one fatty problem in your body. If you are making a goal of losing that pot belly of yours, you should expect on seeing physical changes to your whole body, as well.
Fat is stored within your body in special "compartments" known as "adipocytes". They act as a storage facility for fat, which happens to be one of the main energy sources for our body. Pending how many calories we intake and lose with exercise, these adipocytes will expand, making us fatter, or contract, making us thinner and releasing fat for energy our body needs. If you want to get thin and lose belly fat, you are going to have to get those adipocytes to release that fat. The only way to do that is to get your muscles hungry and in need of energy.
As you can imagine, adipocytes aren't always the friendliest for those that need to lighten up their weight. Adipocytes around the hips, thighs and buttocks are by far more stubborn to remove and release fat less often than other areas containing adipocytes. However if you really want to lose belly fat only, you are in luck. The fastest releasing adipocytes are generally those in the abdominal region. This means that any type of exercise you do, whether it be doing crunches and sit-ups to bench presses or running miles, it will help you lose belly fat. However, if you have belly fat, you usually hold your share of a far more stubborn fat... meet the evil other half: love handles.
You can typically lose belly fat somewhat easily (in relative terms), however Love handles are another story. These two words are enough to embarrass and haunt hundreds of millions of people around the world. Located on the sides of your abdomen and upper thighs, the adiposities here are ridiculously slow to show any signs of releasing their fat. You might see the difference from your work on the front of your belly, but glance to your right and left and there are probably love handles still waiting for you to work on. I offer the best of both world's in my get rid of love handles guide with bonus belly fat program to get rid of both with one stone.
Why is it important that you not only lose belly fat, but lose your love handles as well? Only years ago, many thought it was simply for vanity, which lets face it, is the major reason to get rid of of love handles and belly fat. Ugly belly fat and wide love handles don't exactly make you feel like the most attractive person. Getting rid of love handles and belly fat can leave you feeling better about yourself, and get you the instant attention you want from the opposite sex - if it's one of your goals.
