How to lose belly fat:
We start to gain weight
in our midsection when our cortisol levels spike. Stress is one of the primary
culprits for high levels of cortisol secretion. When this happens cortisol
breaks downs lean muscle (the type of tissue that burns calories most
efficiently) and also holds on to fat storage in the abdominal region. That
stress can even get WORSE with bad dieting; studies show that the stress caused
by dieting can increase cortisol levels, making no change in belly fat even
with calorie restriction. So how do you
shape up?
1.
Sleep:
Losing sleep can alter your hormone production,
affecting your cortisol levels that cause insulin sensitivity, prime reasons
for belly fat :/
2 .exercises
Do exercises that engage multiple muscle groups and work your
cardiovascular system. Try planking, where you hold yourself in a push-up
position, resting your forearms on the ground. Try 3 or 4 sets of holding for 30 seconds each.
3.Avoid sugar :
Sugar is really bad for your health.Fighting belly fat is 80% healthy
diet. Reduce calories by filling yourself up with protein, vegetables, whole
grains, and replacing bad habit snacks with good ones. Avoid sugar added
4. Slow down
your breath :
Lie down and relax. Lie down on a comfortable
surface such as your bed or your couch. If there is no comfortable surface to
lie upon, then try sitting in a relaxed position, breathe slowly. Try
some techniques to use breathing to calm your heart rate like Abdominal breathing, Alternate nostril breathing
