How To Lose Belly Fat Without Exercising

This seems to be searched quite a lot. It is proof that humans are brutally lazy and will do anything to avoid actual work.  A little off topic, but I have heard that the highest proportion of heart attacks occur on a Monday morning, meaning that some of us are so lazy we will have a heart attack to avoid going to work!

I think that unless you are extremely overweight there is not much chance of losing belly fat without exercising. Sure you can eat a good nutritious meal  6 times a day and measure out exact proportions for each meal, but if you are not burning any fat through exercise you will not see much in terms of results. You will definitely feel better though and will be a lot healthier, and over the long term you will notice some fat loss, but nothing like the synergestic effect of combining nutrition and exercise.

My bet is against you however. If you are too lazy to do exercise, the chances of you sticking to a good diet and not wandering from the course are pretty much zero. It is far harder to so no to chocolate cake at a party than it is to fit half an hour of exercise into a day. Take from this what you will, but as I say, my bet is against you losing belly fat without exercising, unless you are extremely overweight.
Even then you should still be doing a bit of exercise, even if you can only manage to walk around the outside of your house a couple of times a day.

Foods That Fight Belly Fat

I have decided to do this post because I keep hearing about people who are nutritional drop outs. They still don’t know the difference between good and bad fats and they still have a whole lot of bad ass fat on their stomach.

I have posted before about a couple of rules that can help you when picking foods at the supermarket, grocers, where ever you go. I’ll post them again because they probably got lost under all the other stuff I was talking about.

When shopping – Try to buy foods with just 1 ingredient.

This might sound like Mission: Boring and Impossible, however it can be anything but. When I first did this I thought I would be limited to fruit and veg, but there are a whole lot more choices than that. It kicks the right side of your brain into overdrive and forces it to do a little more labor than it is used to. When you only have limited parameters you have to think outside the square about what you can have with what. Use it to your advantage, don’t get depressed about it, emo kid.

When shopping – Always aim to buy things that will go off within a few weeks.

I am not some evil anti capitalist who is trying to bring about further economic crippling, but as weird as it sounds, it is true. Let me ask you something…

How long does a McDonalds burger last? How about a bottle of soda? Canned goods? White flour?

All these things are so full of crap and so intrinsically crap that you have to wonder – do the manufacturers feel bad about all the people they are helping to become overweight bowling balls?

This is the reason that I tell you to buy things that go off. Now most things that go off are good for you – things like fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, dairy, eggs. But some things like seeds, nuts, protein powder and a few other things don’t tend to go off as easily. These are just guidelines.

Apply common sense and some rationality and you have the ingredients for a good list of fun times at the market!

Until next time look good, feel good and live like you mean it!

What Is The Best Way To Remove Abdominal Fat?

The best way to remove abdominal fat is with a filleting knife, this will enable you to access the muscle which tastes fantastic.

This is my hunting blog… Yes? No?

Oh right.

The best way to remove abdominal fat has got to be what I class as extreme cardio.

Here are a few examples of workouts that have done wonders for me and anybody else who has given them the chance to work, good things sometimes don’t happen overnight my fellow humans.

1. Boxing – as you probably have guessed by now I am quite into martial arts and kickboxing. I have found that the workouts provided by these activites are nothing short of gut wrenching. They leave you so buggered afterward that driving home feels like a half marathon (I do drive a 73 GM station wagon, that probably doesn’t help). If you don’t want to join up to a burly boxing gym, just buy a boxing bag or beat up a door frame. Check out youtube for some tips on how to stand and how to move while boxing and you’re away laughing.
2. Sprints/HIIT – sprints are just what they say. HIIT is short for High Intensity Interval Training. This pretty much means that you would go for a run/bike/row/whatever and go hardcore for 30 seconds to a minute and then take it easy for a minute or two, then ramp the pace back up. This does amazing things to belly fat… Like making it disappear!
3. Resistance training – weights, bodyweight workouts, cable workouts, dumbbell, barbell… They all pretty much do the same thing, they break your body down so your body has to repair itself… Bigger, stronger and faster. Not so easy to get big body builders muscles though, so don’t worry if you don’t want to look like The Incredible Bulk – it won’t happen. Especially to the ladies – there is not a chance in hell that you will bulk up – you would have to go on a special body building diet and workout – even then it would be very hard for 95% of females to bulk up.

Hope you got a few good ideas. Now road rage all the way to the gym and start hitting it like it owes you money.

Until next time, look good, feel good and live like you mean it!
