Many people have the wrong ideas on how to lose belly fat. As a consequence, they get fatter instead of leaner. Then they get frustrated and sabotage their fitness plan. In this article, we’ll unravel the 3 myths you absolutely must avoid if you want to be slim and fit, as well as some effective tips on how to lose belly fat.

Myth: Starving yourself can help you lose belly fat.

Fact: Reducing your food intake drastically is not only detrimental to your health and well-being, but it’s also one way to gain belly fat. Sounds ironic, but it’s true.

Some people endure long periods of food deprivation, thinking that this can help them lose their belly fat. Then when they can’t take their hunger anymore, they binge. This is a surefire way to get that unwanted flab! Your body needs food to continuously be in a “burning” metabolic state. Not eating will only slow down your metabolism.

The best solution is to eat 5 to 6 times a day, but eat meals in smaller portions. This way, your body would be able to effectively obtain energy from the food you eat instead of storing them as body fat.

Myth: Not getting enough sleep can help you lose belly fat

Fact: Not only is it unhealthy, but not getting enough sleep can affect your bodily functions. When your system is not performing properly, your body won’t have the same capacity to burn your belly fat during physical activity as when you have a full night’s sleep. Around 6 to 7 hours is sufficient enough for most people to function properly throughout the day.

Myth: Abdominal sit-ups and crunches is key to losing belly fat.

Fact: Sit-ups and crunches may help strengthen your inner abs. But it’s not the key to ultimately lose the belly fat covering that abs. What use is it to have great abs if it’s covered in a layer of fat?

So what types of exercises should you do? Cardiovascular exercises such as running, jogging, or aerobics will help you lose that unwanted belly fat. Weight training can also help you lose body fat because the more muscle mass you have, the more ability your system has to burn body fat.

Follow these 3 great tips to lose belly fat – eat smaller meals 5 to 6 times a day, get enough sleep, and engage in cardiovascular and weight training exercises. If you do, you’ll be leaner and sexier sooner than you may expect.
