“How To Get Rid Of Lower Ab Fat”

     Every woman wants to know HOW... step-by-step... to get RID of fat from her lower abs.

     I recently sat down with a certified fitness trainer to find out the answer...

     First, let's focus on Anatomy 101: You have four major abdominal muscles. The one that runs the length of your torso from your sternum to your pelvis is called the "rectus abdominis."

     Because it is one long wide flat sheet of muscle, some scientists think it's a waste of time to do exercises that focus on the upper half of that muscle and other exercises to focus on the lower half.

     The truth is, there is no such thing as "targeting" an area for fat loss.

     The only way to lose fat in the lower abs, or any other "trouble area" for that matter, is to lower your overall body fat percentage.

     Weight loss and ideal weight is all about body composition: the amount of fat versus the amount of muscle you carry around on your body.

     One of the myths perpetuated through the years has been the idea of "spot reduction". The CFT we spoke with does not believe in this concept.

     Instead, she believes in following a regimen for changing your body composition.

     When you hear the term "target your abs" or "feel the burn," you are targeting the MUSCLES that lie underneath the fat. This is okay too, you will definitely want to work those muscles, but you won't see the benefits until the body fat percentage itself is lowered.

     So how do you go about changing your body composition for the better? It's quite simple!

     Here's how you can lose fat and gain muscle, improve your physique and slim down those trouble areas...

     Eat SMALLER meals several times a day instead of just a couple of big meals.

     This is important!

     The main reason around this eating habit is that smaller meals can help you lose weight and absorb nutrients more efficiently by speeding up your metabolism.

     Also, in regards to changing your eating habits to lower overall body fat, stick to a healthy, low-calorie diet. This will by far be the most important thing you do to assist your problem areas.

     Track your food intake and hold yourself accountable!

     Do some cardiovascular exercise, which raises your heart rate and elevates your breathing level, at least three times per week. One good exercise to do is the REVERSE CRUNCH.

     To do the reverse crunch, keep your back on the floor and use your abs to lift your hips straight up, just a few inches off the floor. Flatten the abs at the top of the movement by exhaling and contracting the muscles.

     Train your muscles with weights about two or three times per week. Remember though, when training your muscles, one should wait 48 hours before training the same body part again. This gives your muscles some downtime.

     Once you've done some weight training and you have replenished your muscles with protein, your body will need to rest. Make sure to get a good night's sleep and don't overdo it with other physical activities.

     These are some of the common sense strategies that you can use to get rid of fat and slim down...
