The Best Workout that Changed My Body (Model Workout)
Growing up, I was a chubby kid. As a teenager, I was “skinny-fat” - I had a tummy but lean arms and legs. I have tried everything to burn that belly fat off; right from detox teas, waist clinchers, sports, Pilates, limiting my calorie intake, weight lifting, strength training, eating only health food for months, lemon water, even K-Pop stars’ diets… you name it and I’ve probably done it.
Then I finally found something that worked out for me. I stumbled across it on Reddit, and I shared it with my friends, not thinking that it would actually work.
Except that it did.
A friend who had gained 10 kgs because of her thyroid lost nearly 8 kgs in a matter of a couple of months. Another friend - who’s quite skinny and petite and struggled with weight gain - saw her body get more toned in just a couple of weeks.
So I decided to try it out as well - and I could actually see a difference in just a week’s time (as crazy as this sounds). A few pants I had that I always felt a little insecure about wearing actually felt LOOSE at the waist! I couldn’t believe it!
Now, for a little disclaimer. The person who created these workouts happens to train models. They are specialised in model training- reducing waist cm, hips is their specialty. HOWEVER. They were accused of filming their clients in their gym bathroom. Their spouse eventually took over the company. But that still doesn’t sit right with me. So that means that I will not be buying any of the company’s products, even though the work outs are really effective and require minimum equipment.
So I did a little bit of sleuthing - and found 5 out of 6 of their workouts for free on Reddit.
I’m going to share the link that I found on Reddit. I am NOT responsible for uploading the files. I have no role to play in it. These have been available on Reddit for literally years. I have no idea who the original distributor is, either. Also, these videos are quite old. I’m sure that the new ones are different from these.
The workouts range from 20-60 minutes (most of them are at 40 minutes though). The best part is that you can do these anywhere.
The only equipment you really need:
- yoga mat
- Slide discs/ wash cloths
- Ankle weights
- 3 pound dumbbells
Here it is (the link)
The nutrition guide:
(I have not come up with this. Do not hold me responsible if you do not agree with what the trainer says).
1. Calorie intake: 1600 calories
2. No juice, rice, pasta, potatoes, bread 2-3 hours before you workout. If you must eat, it has to be low calorie protein or lean (eggs, protein shake, lean protein, salad, vegetables).
3. No carbs after 3 pm.
4. Dinner should be protein and vegetable based.
5. No protein for 1-2 hours after workout. Fruit juice, fruits, vegetables and starchy carbs are fine.
6. Only treadmill for cardio. Slow jogs. No weights for lower body, outside of the program. No lunges, squats or deadlifts. Yoga and Pilates are fine. I personally do 12-3-30.
How I use this routine:
Monday: workout 1
Tuesday: 12-3-30
Wednesday: workout 2
Thursday: 12-3-30
Friday: workout 3
Saturday: workout 4 +12-3-30
Sunday: 12-3-30 / yoga/ rest day
I take 5 days off in a month during my period. These workouts are also not crazy intense (I’m used to playing sports and being active in general) so I’m fine doing it everyday.
What is 12-3-30?
Treadmill workout where:
12- incline
3 - speed
30 - minutes

Health update (10/20)
I am feeling good.
I mentioned that now I want to focus on allergies and stress management. I might book an appointment to see my allergist.
I know I put my body through a lot of stress from prolonged fasting. But I reduced my risk of developing metabolic disease by a lot. I had a lot of body dysmorphia last year and losing a lot of fat did help with my confidence.
Eating a healthy diet and drinking enough water, as well as taking digestive enzymes, helped a lot with my weight and bloating. I complained a lot about thick calves in the past, but my calf size is mostly due to excess fat. I lost a lot of fat, so keeping it off helps a lot. I've seen photos of myself in my teens where my calves varied in size, and that was due to fluctuating weight. My weight did fluctuate when I was a teen and I think I got heavier after spending a year in my college dorm and I overate (rez food + ordering). I tend to gain weight in my legs, butt, and calves which is why they appear bigger. I gain less weight in my stomach and arms and none in my chest and hardly any in my waist area (which is kind of good because visceral weight gain is more dangerous than subcutaneous weight gain).
I'm naturally gifted in the sense that I naturally have a good amount of muscle tone. I want to maintain that and that's one of the reasons why I have good ab definition (I'm not shredded but I don't have a skinny fat belly). I want to keep it up with the strength training - yoga and pilates mostly. So I can maintain this physique as I get older.
I know my skin is inflamed and I need to heal psychologically. But at least I improved my health in so many ways so far. I lost a lot of weight and am eating much healthier and got a mental health diagnosis. My mental wellbeing will take longer to address. I just want to tell myself it's okay to be sad and cry.
I got some rashes on my neck recently when I applied some protopic. It makes me itch and I don't want to use it. I am getting allergies in general and in random areas. Not eczema, but redness and some hives.
I did a lot for my health this year and I'm so happy. I just want to heal and open up psychologically, do more yoga/pilates, address my allergies, and gain some body confidence.
Allergy wise I've been getting random rashes, my face flared again, my eyelids became red, puffy, watery and itchy, I sneezed quite often and got congested and my neck lymph nodes are tender and sore. My right hand also developed some redness and hives. I don't know what it is, I'll figure it out.

What are some tips for specifically losing belly fat?
Losing belly fat specifically can be challenging, but with the right approach, it's achievable. Here's an extensive guide on how to effectively target and reduce belly fat. This guide will cover dietary strategies, exercise routines, lifestyle changes, and mental health considerations that can help you achieve your goals.
1. Understanding Belly Fat: Types and Causes
Belly fat, also known as abdominal fat, is not just a nuisance that makes your clothes feel tight; it’s harmful to your health. There are two types of belly fat:
Subcutaneous Fat: This is the pinchable fat that lies just under the skin.
Visceral Fat: This fat surrounds your organs and is associated with various health problems like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers.
The causes of belly fat are multifaceted and can include poor diet, lack of exercise, stress, genetics, and hormonal imbalances. Understanding these causes can help tailor your approach to losing belly fat.
2. Dietary Strategies
a. Reduce Caloric Intake
To lose belly fat, you need to create a calorie deficit, which means consuming fewer calories than your body needs. This forces your body to burn stored fat for energy, including belly fat.
Track Your Calories: Use apps or food diaries to track your daily caloric intake.
Portion Control: Be mindful of portion sizes to avoid overeating.
Choose Nutrient-Dense Foods: Opt for foods rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber but low in calories.
b. Focus on a Balanced Diet
A balanced diet is crucial for fat loss and overall health.
Increase Protein Intake: Protein can boost metabolism, reduce appetite, and aid in fat loss. Include lean meats, fish, eggs, legumes, and nuts in your diet.
Eat Healthy Fats: Incorporate sources of healthy fats like avocados, olive oil, and nuts. These fats can help reduce inflammation and support weight loss.
Prioritize Fiber: Fiber-rich foods like vegetables, fruits, and whole grains help you feel full longer, reducing overall calorie intake.
Limit Sugars and Refined Carbs: These foods can lead to fat storage, especially around the belly. Reduce consumption of sugary drinks, sweets, and refined grains.
c. Hydration
Staying hydrated is essential for metabolism and can help reduce belly fat.
Drink Plenty of Water: Aim for at least 8 glasses a day.
Limit Alcohol: Alcohol is high in empty calories and can lead to weight gain, especially around the midsection.
3. Exercise Regimen
a. Cardiovascular Exercises
Cardio exercises are effective for burning calories and reducing overall body fat, including belly fat.
High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT): This involves short bursts of intense exercise followed by rest or low-intensity exercise. HIIT is known for its efficiency in burning fat.
Steady-State Cardio: Activities like running, swimming, or cycling at a steady pace can also help burn calories and reduce fat.
b. Strength Training
Building muscle through strength training can help increase your metabolism and burn more calories, even at rest.
Compound Movements: Exercises like squats, deadlifts, and bench presses target multiple muscle groups and are effective for fat loss.
Core Strengthening: Exercises like planks, Russian twists, and leg raises specifically target the abdominal muscles, helping to tone the area.
c. Flexibility and Stability Exercises
Incorporating flexibility and stability exercises can improve overall body function and reduce the risk of injury, aiding in a more effective workout routine.
Yoga: Yoga can help reduce stress (a contributor to belly fat) and improve flexibility.
Pilates: This focuses on core strength, stability, and flexibility, which can help tone the abdominal area.
4. Lifestyle Changes
a. Sleep
Getting enough sleep is crucial for fat loss. Lack of sleep can lead to weight gain, especially around the belly.
Aim for 7-9 Hours of Sleep: Quality sleep helps regulate hormones that control hunger and stress, aiding in weight management.
Establish a Sleep Routine: Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day to regulate your body’s internal clock.
b. Stress Management
Stress can lead to weight gain by increasing cortisol levels, which promote fat storage in the belly.
Practice Relaxation Techniques: Activities like meditation, deep breathing, and mindfulness can help reduce stress.
Engage in Hobbies: Spend time doing things you enjoy to help lower stress levels.
c. Limit Sedentary Behavior
Reducing sedentary time is crucial for losing belly fat.
Move More Throughout the Day: Stand up, stretch, or take short walks regularly, especially if you have a desk job.
Incorporate Physical Activity: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity each week, along with muscle-strengthening activities.
5. Hormonal Balance
Hormonal imbalances can contribute to weight gain, particularly around the belly.
Monitor Thyroid Function: An underactive thyroid can slow metabolism and lead to weight gain. Consult with a healthcare provider if you suspect thyroid issues.
Manage Insulin Levels: High insulin levels can promote fat storage. A low-carb diet and regular exercise can help regulate insulin.
Balance Estrogen Levels: Imbalances in estrogen, especially during menopause, can lead to increased belly fat. Focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management to maintain hormonal balance.
6. Mental Health Considerations
Your mindset plays a significant role in your ability to lose belly fat.
a. Set Realistic Goals
Setting achievable goals helps maintain motivation and encourages consistency.
Short-Term Goals: Break your overall goal into smaller, manageable steps, such as losing 1-2 pounds per week.
Long-Term Vision: Keep the big picture in mind, focusing on overall health and wellness rather than just aesthetics.
b. Stay Consistent
Consistency is key to losing belly fat.
Stick to a Routine: Create a workout and meal plan that fits your lifestyle and stick to it.
Be Patient: Fat loss, especially from the belly, takes time. Avoid getting discouraged if results aren’t immediate.
c. Positive Mindset
Maintaining a positive attitude can help you stay motivated and committed to your goals.
Focus on Progress, Not Perfection: Celebrate small victories and improvements in your health, even if they’re not directly related to belly fat.
Practice Self-Compassion: Avoid negative self-talk and be kind to yourself throughout the journey.
7. Supplements and Additional Support
While diet and exercise are the most effective ways to lose belly fat, some supplements can support your efforts.
a. Probiotics
Probiotics can improve gut health, which is linked to a reduction in belly fat.
Sources: Yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and probiotic supplements.
b. Green Tea Extract
Green tea extract is rich in antioxidants and can help increase fat burning.
Usage: Drink green tea or take a supplement as directed.
c. Fiber Supplements
If you’re not getting enough fiber from your diet, consider taking a fiber supplement.
Types: Psyllium husk, glucomannan, and inulin.
8. Professional Guidance
If you’re struggling to lose belly fat, consider seeking professional help.
a. Nutritionist or Dietitian
A registered dietitian can help create a personalized meal plan that meets your specific needs.
b. Personal Trainer
A personal trainer can design a workout routine tailored to your goals and fitness level.
c. Medical Consultation
If you have underlying health conditions that make losing belly fat difficult, consult with a healthcare provider for medical advice and treatment options.
9. The Importance of Consistency and Patience
It’s essential to remember that losing belly fat is a gradual process. Consistency in your diet, exercise, and lifestyle choices will yield the best results. It’s also important to be patient and not to get discouraged by temporary setbacks.
10. Long-Term Maintenance
Once you’ve achieved your goal of losing belly fat, maintaining your results requires ongoing effort.
Continue Healthy Eating: Keep up with a balanced diet rich in whole foods.
Sustain Physical Activity: Regular exercise should remain a part of your lifestyle.
Monitor Your Weight: Keep track of your weight to catch any potential weight gain early.
Adjust as Needed: Life changes, and so should your approach to maintaining your weight. Be flexible and willing to adapt your habits as necessary.
Conclusion
Losing belly fat requires a comprehensive approach that includes dietary changes, regular exercise, lifestyle adjustments, and a positive mindset. By understanding the factors that contribute to belly fat and implementing the strategies outlined in this guide, you can achieve a healthier, leaner midsection and improve your overall well-being.
Remember, the journey to losing belly fat is not just about looking good; it’s about feeling good and taking control of your health. Stay consistent, be patient, and celebrate your progress along the way. With dedication and effort, you can reach your goals and maintain them for the long term.

31 Dec - really didn't overeat or anything over the holidays at all, so that's good! Had some cookies, 2 slices of pie over the course of a week, and maybe 3 pieces of chocolate? No alcohol except maybe 1/3 glass of wine (it was gross). I did several Pilates videos, and the stationary bike once. It was too cold to walk for the most part, though I did a 30 min walk/jog this Thursday when it was about 54 out which felt wonderful!! Perfect temperature for that. Very impressive step totals for the time at my parents' though.
I am using the Lose It app to track my food. I don't have much of an issue with eating too much or being hungry, but I do easily add 300 extra calories with evening snacks on the regular out of not much more than random cravings, and I want to stop that, and also be more aware of the times I will have a glass or two of wine and think little of it. I know that if I didn't do these small things I'd lose the five pounds I've been stuck on forever....
Most important from just five days of tracking, though, is how low my protein is! I knew I wasn't getting what I should but i am below even that!!! So this is my biggest goal. No wonder I've been stuck in terms of increasing my weights for dumbbells!
I do want to incorporate some barbell exercises this year, but I'm most interested in losing those five pounds of fat I'm so uncomfortable with, so I don't expect to advance much. Maybe if I achieve that goal I can add in extra calories for muscle building, but I don't trust myself to work out heavily enough during the winter months when it involves going to the gym, so there will be more at-home videos and basic dumbbells til spring.
Overall, I did not make the progress I wanted in terms of looks or muscles, BUT I can say honestly that there was hardly one week this year where I didn't work out at least twice, and I've kept the commitment of going to the gym and using weights more. My back is definitely stronger which is huge for me!! I feel more aware of my body for better and for worse.
Specific-y Winter 2023 goals:
Track calories/macros daily January through April.
Increase average daily protein intake to 75 grams (I'm averaging like 50 now) by February, then increase.
Pilates/yoga/balance-ortiented videos once a week, even if only 20 minutes. Must log here and link specific video/routine.
Exercise at least 4 a week (20 min minimum, preferably 40+)
Post Fitbit reading for every. day. Posting multiple days at once allowed, but can't go for more then five days without.
Go to all sessions of the barre class I signed up for. Starts second week of January.
Be able to do 3 30 s deadhangs in a row by March 15.
Incorporate 1 set of 7 lat pulldowns at 80 lbs every time starting in Feb.
Write out all workouts for posts here.
Equally important less-measurable winter 2023 goals:
Reduce belly/back fat -- pretty much the only places excess weight collects on me, though I also expect to possibly reduce my bra size slightly. I don't want to make a specific inches goal, but I think 5 lb is reasonable even if I gain a bit of muscle (which I don't really expect, being at a slight deficit, tho maybe the protein will help.)
Return to place where 15 lb dumbbells are very comfortable for me for basic curls etc., because how was it so much easier when I was 15 lb lighter and not now?! That's nothing! Vague I know, but I'll feel when.
Good luck everyone!

Cycling
Great for burning calories and toning the lower body.
Incorporate uphill cycling to engage the core further.
Swimming
Full-body workout that engages the core and burns a lot of calories.
Strength Training
Building muscle increases your resting metabolism, helping to burn fat:
Plank Variations
Forearm Plank: Hold your body straight on your forearms and toes.
Side Plank: Targets the obliques for a well-rounded core workout.
Plank with Leg Lift: Adds an extra challenge to engage the lower abs.

Walking
Even moderate-intensity walking, especially after meals, helps in fat burning.
Consistency and Nutrition

How to Remove Back Fat
Back fat, or the fat that accumulates around the upper and lower back, can be a common concern for many individuals. While spot reduction (targeting fat loss in specific areas) is largely considered a myth, a combination of targeted exercises, a balanced diet, and overall lifestyle changes can help you achieve a leaner back and improve your overall body composition. This guide will walk you through various strategies to help reduce back fat and enhance your physical fitness.
1. Understanding Back Fat
Back fat typically accumulates due to excess calorie consumption, insufficient physical activity, and genetic factors. It can be more pronounced in individuals with a higher body fat percentage or those who are not engaging in regular exercise. To effectively tackle back fat, a holistic approach combining diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes is essential.
2. Dietary Adjustments
a. Balanced Nutrition: Focus on a diet rich in whole foods including fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Reducing processed foods, sugary snacks, and high-fat items will help in reducing overall body fat, including back fat.
b. Caloric Deficit: To lose fat, you need to consume fewer calories than you burn. Aim for a moderate caloric deficit by adjusting portion sizes and reducing high-calorie foods.
c. Protein Intake: Incorporate lean proteins such as chicken, fish, tofu, and legumes. Protein helps build muscle, which can improve your metabolism and contribute to fat loss.
d. Healthy Fats: Include sources of healthy fats such as avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. Healthy fats are essential for overall health and can help manage cravings.
e. Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated supports metabolism and helps prevent overeating.
3. Exercise Regimen
a. Cardiovascular Exercise: Engage in regular cardio workouts to burn calories and reduce overall body fat.
b. Strength Training: Building muscle through strength training exercises can increase your metabolic rate and help tone your back. Focus on exercises that target the upper, middle, and lower back, such as:
Pull-ups/Chin-ups: Great for targeting the upper back.
Rows: Using dumbbells, barbells, or a rowing machine to work the middle back.
Lat Pulldowns: Helps in building the latissimus dorsi muscles.
Reverse Flyes: Targets the rear deltoids and upper back.
Deadlifts: Engages the lower back along with other major muscle groups.
c. Core Strengthening: A strong core supports good posture and can help reduce the appearance of back fat.
d. Flexibility and Stretching: Include stretching exercises to improve flexibility and posture. Yoga and Pilates are excellent for strengthening the back and enhancing flexibility.
4. Lifestyle Changes
a. Regular Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night. Poor sleep can disrupt hormone levels related to hunger and fat storage.
b. Stress Management: Chronic stress can lead to increased fat accumulation, particularly around the abdomen and back. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as meditation, deep breathing, and regular physical activity.
c. Posture Improvement: Maintain good posture throughout the day to prevent the appearance of back fat. Proper posture can also help engage the back muscles more effectively during workouts.
d. Avoid Smoking and Excessive Alcohol: Both smoking and excessive alcohol consumption can contribute to weight gain and fat accumulation. Reducing or eliminating these habits can improve overall health and aid in fat loss.
5. Consistency and Patience
Reducing back fat takes time and consistent effort. Implementing these dietary, exercise, and lifestyle changes will gradually lead to improvements. Track your progress with regular measurements and adjustments to your routine as needed.
7-second “tea ritual" eats through 57lbs of belly flab
Conclusion
Removing back fat involves a comprehensive approach that combines dietary changes, exercise, and lifestyle adjustments. By focusing on a balanced diet, engaging in regular physical activity, and maintaining healthy habits, you can work towards a leaner back and improved overall body composition. Remember, patience and persistence are key, and adopting these changes will contribute to long-term health and fitness benefits.

Incorporate Physical Activity: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity each week, along with muscle-strengthening activities.
5. Hormonal Balance
Hormonal imbalances can contribute to weight gain, particularly around the belly.
Monitor Thyroid Function: An underactive thyroid can slow metabolism and lead to weight gain. Consult with a healthcare provider if you suspect thyroid issues.
Manage Insulin Levels: High insulin levels can promote fat storage. A low-carb diet and regular exercise can help regulate insulin.
Balance Estrogen Levels: Imbalances in estrogen, especially during menopause, can lead to increased belly fat. Focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management to maintain hormonal balance.
6. Mental Health Considerations
Your mindset plays a significant role in your ability to lose belly fat.
a. Set Realistic Goals
Setting achievable goals helps maintain motivation and encourages consistency.
Short-Term Goals: Break your overall goal into smaller, manageable steps, such as losing 1-2 pounds per week.
Long-Term Vision: Keep the big picture in mind, focusing on overall health and wellness rather than just aesthetics.
b. Stay Consistent
Consistency is key to losing belly fat.
Stick to a Routine: Create a workout and meal plan that fits your lifestyle and stick to it.
Be Patient: Fat loss, especially from the belly, takes time. Avoid getting discouraged if results aren’t immediate.
c. Positive Mindset
Maintaining a positive attitude can help you stay motivated and committed to your goals.
Focus on Progress, Not Perfection: Celebrate small victories and improvements in your health, even if they’re not directly related to belly fat.
Practice Self-Compassion: Avoid negative self-talk and be kind to yourself throughout the journey.
7. Supplements and Additional Support
While diet and exercise are the most effective ways to lose belly fat, some supplements can support your efforts.
a. Probiotics
Probiotics can improve gut health, which is linked to a reduction in belly fat.
Sources: Yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and probiotic supplements.
b. Green Tea Extract
Green tea extract is rich in antioxidants and can help increase fat burning.
Usage: Drink green tea or take a supplement as directed.
c. Fiber Supplements
If you’re not getting enough fiber from your diet, consider taking a fiber supplement.
Types: Psyllium husk, glucomannan, and inulin.
8. Professional Guidance
If you’re struggling to lose belly fat, consider seeking professional help.
a. Nutritionist or Dietitian
A registered dietitian can help create a personalized meal plan that meets your specific needs.
b. Personal Trainer
A personal trainer can design a workout routine tailored to your goals and fitness level.
c. Medical Consultation
If you have underlying health conditions that make losing belly fat difficult, consult with a healthcare provider for medical advice and treatment options.
9. The Importance of Consistency and Patience
It’s essential to remember that losing belly fat is a gradual process. Consistency in your diet, exercise, and lifestyle choices will yield the best results. It’s also important to be patient and not to get discouraged by temporary setbacks.
10. Long-Term Maintenance
Once you’ve achieved your goal of losing belly fat, maintaining your results requires ongoing effort.
Continue Healthy Eating: Keep up with a balanced diet rich in whole foods.
Sustain Physical Activity: Regular exercise should remain a part of your lifestyle.
Monitor Your Weight: Keep track of your weight to catch any potential weight gain early.
Adjust as Needed: Life changes, and so should your approach to maintaining your weight. Be flexible and willing to adapt your habits as necessary.
Conclusion
Losing belly fat requires a comprehensive approach that includes dietary changes, regular exercise, lifestyle adjustments, and a positive mindset. By understanding the factors that contribute to belly fat and implementing the strategies outlined in this guide, you can achieve a healthier, leaner midsection and improve your overall well-being.
Remember, the journey to losing belly fat is not just about looking good; it’s about feeling good and taking control of your health. Stay consistent, be patient, and celebrate your progress along the way. With dedication and effort, you can reach your goals and maintain them for the long term.

Exercise to Reduce Belly Fat for Male and Female at Home
Reducing belly fat through exercise at home requires a combination of cardiovascular workouts, strength training, and core exercises. Remember that spot reduction (losing fat from a specific area) is not effective; you'll need to focus on overall fat loss. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet is crucial for achieving your goals. Here's a workout plan suitable for both males and females:
1. Cardiovascular Exercises: Cardio workouts help burn calories and promote overall fat loss. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week.
Jumping Jacks: Do 3 sets of 30-60 seconds.
High Knees: Run in place while lifting your knees high for 3 sets of 30-60 seconds.
Burpees: Perform 3 sets of 10-15 repetitions.
Running or Jogging in Place: 20-30 minutes per session.
2. Strength Training: Building muscle helps increase your metabolism and burn more calories even at rest. Use household items like water bottles, backpacks, or resistance bands for resistance.
Push-Ups: Do 3 sets of 10-15 repetitions.
Bodyweight Squats: Perform 3 sets of 15-20 repetitions.
Planks: Hold for 30-60 seconds for 3 sets.
Dumbbell Rows: Use household items for resistance and do 3 sets of 10-15 repetitions per arm.
3. Core Exercises: Strengthening your core muscles will help tone your abdominal area.
Crunches: Do 3 sets of 15-20 repetitions.
Leg Raises: Lie flat on your back and raise your legs 6-12 inches off the ground. Do 3 sets of 10-15 repetitions.
Russian Twists: Sit with your knees bent, lean back slightly, and rotate your torso to the left and right, touching the floor on each side. Exercise to Reduce Belly Fat for Male and Female at Home Do 3 sets of 15-20 twists per side.
4. Yoga and Pilates: Incorporate yoga and Pilates into your routine to improve flexibility and strengthen your core.
5. HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training): HIIT workouts are highly effective for burning calories and boosting metabolism. Perform short bursts of high-intensity exercises followed by brief rest periods.
6. Diet: Remember that exercise alone won't reduce belly fat; you also need a healthy diet. Focus on eating whole foods, including lean protein, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Avoid or limit sugary drinks, processed foods, and excess refined carbohydrates.
7. Hydration and Sleep: Stay hydrated and aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night. Sleep and hydration are crucial for fat loss and overall health.
8. Consistency: Consistency is key. Stick to your exercise and dietary plan over the long term to see meaningful results.
Remember to consult a healthcare professional or fitness expert before starting any new exercise program, especially if you have any pre-existing medical conditions or concerns. They can help tailor a program that suits your individual needs and goals.
