6 Ways Women Can Lose Stubborn Belly Fat For Good

Getting rid of belly fat can feel like a never-ending quest, and pseudoscience isn't your solution because actual science states that it isn't possible to spot-reduce fat. 

You must tackle it through an overall approach to eliminate stubborn fat. The only way to diminish belly fat is by reducing your body fat as a whole.

Which type of fat are we referring to? There are two types. Your attention should be shifted to visceral fat for a slimmer belly, as this fat lies deep within your abs and protects your organs. 

Excess visceral fat has been linked to health issues such as heart disease and type 2 diabetes. So, as in everything in life, including visceral fat, moderation is best.

Therefore, start taking stubborn belly fat seriously. The main objective shouldn't be a six-pack but health and longevity. Here's how you can achieve it.

Stay Active

To lose belly fat, you've got to move as much as you can. Running, swimming, biking, and even walking will get your heart rate up and get you sweating. Cardio of any kind is excellent, so don't overthink it when it comes to this type of activity. 

If you want to take the next step, experiment with high-intensity interval training and weight-lifting. HIIT is going to get your heart elevated most efficiently, while strength training with compound exercise is the best way to build muscle throughout the body. 

Protein Makes You Lean

Eating protein assists in losing weight. Protein has been shown to improve your metabolism and give you an extended 'fullness' after meals. 

It is also linked to helping with insulin resistance when combined with a low-carb diet. 

Therefore, get some lean cuts of meat or tofu on every plate. Ensure it comes from a healthy source; if you're taking it out of a processed package that says 'microwave' on the cover, you're doing it wrong.

Fats Can Be Healthy, Too

By healthy fats, we mean nuts and olive oil, not excess amounts of ice cream and butter. Keep away from those saturated fats that will raise your cholesterol and will pack on more visceral fat.

That doesn't mean outright deleting saturated fats from your diet; we know they're the cornerstone of any flavorful meal. Yet, eat them in moderation so you won't look at yourself in the mirror with regret.

Deep Sleep

Sleeping is heavily underrated nowadays. Ignore what social media tells you about extreme productivity and working a miraculous 40 hours a day.

A consistent sleep schedule helps reduce belly fat. Studies conclude that those who are strict with their sleeping schedules have lower body fat levels. Another study concluded that sleeping less and being more stressed than usual could alter your body's metabolism. 

Fiber Is Awesome

Just eating an extra 10 grams of fiber a day, which can easily be sourced from two apples or a cup of green peas, can reduce visceral fat and promote a healthy digestive system.
