Tips for Getting Rid of a Fat Pad Above the Tailbone

Lower back fat is becoming an increasingly common problem. Love handles, the apex of lower back fat that nobody wants, is more common for women, given that they are genetically inclined to hold excess fat around their hips and thighs.

The Cause of Love Handles

It's helpful to discuss and understand what causes lower back and tailbone fat before removing it.

Visceral fat tends to pack on in the lower back, unlike the subcutaneous fat found under the skin. The most common causes are a lack of physical activity, a nutritious diet, carbs and sugars, poor sleep, and hormonal imbalances.

The best way to get rid of the fat pad above the tailbone as well as love handles is to adopt a lifestyle of exercise and better eating. Here are a few suggestions for you to follow.

Do More Resistance Training

Resistance training is probably one of the best ways to address overall fat loss. Don't worry; you don't have to be a 'gym rat' to take on strength training. You don't even have to go to the gym; experimenting with bodyweight training will be useful for your health.

It is recommended that you do at least two short 30-minute resistance training workouts per week. Start with finding basic exercises online and pick any of them that you'd like to do routinely.

Cut Carbs and Sugar

To get rid of the fat pad above the tailbone, you should reduce your refined carbs and sugar intake.

That means that white bread, pasta, candies, and sugary drinks have got to go. It doesn't mean that you have to eliminate them from your diet entirely, but treating them as foods not optimal for your health and significantly reducing them will be sufficient.

Improve Your Sleeping Habits

You must get enough sleep because it helps reduce cortisol levels. Cortisol has been linked to excess weight and visceral fat.

Cortisol is also linked to ghrelin, the body's hunger hormone, which is why people that usually have fuzzy sleep schedules tend to eat all day long. The same applies to those that poorly manage stress!
