10 Belly Blunders
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Even a tiny mistake could be keeping you from the definition you desire. Make sure these mistakes aren’t stopping you from getting the midsection you want.
Watch portion sizes. Your mid-section is one of the first places you’ll notice overeating.
Spot reduction tones, it doesn’t reduce. You need cardio to blast away the fat.
Balance your diet. Even a low-calorie diet won’t work if you’re not eating the right foods.
Stop counting reps and work to fatigue. If you’re not tired after 20 crunches, don’t stop.
Focus on technique. Twenty-five good crunches are better than 100 poor ones.
Drink up. Water helps prevent bloating.
Variety will get you there faster. Every muscle group reaches a plateau. Change things up to get results.
Kick up your cardio. Intensity will blast fat faster.
Don’t let your hip flexors do all the work. Focus on the abs and make them exert the effort.
Drinks add up. Liquid calories are the surest way to wreck any diet. Don’t wash away all your hard work.
