Reduce Belly Fat With Canola and High-Oleic Oils
Many individuals seek to discover what oils they can consume to cut belly fat such as safflower oil but now a new U.S.-Canadian study suggests that canola and high-oleic oils can lower abdominal fat. This new research was presented by American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions in New Orleans which studied 121 Canadian and American adults [...]

Belly Fat Linked to Colon Cancer
Belly fat contains many serious health issues such as heart disease, cancer, stroke and risk of diabetes. But the stomach fat that sits deep between the organs (visceral fat) is directly linked to colon cancer, according to a new animal study.

Boxing for a Better Body
Boxing is my favorite sport and it offers great
cardio to help you lose weight and
develop a great body including 6 pack abs. Relieve stress and eliminate
unwanted body fat with these boxing-inspired moves from Crunch NYC instructor
Christy Nacinovich. (These exercises are based on her new Sucker Punch Class.)
For a maximum workout from head to toe, pick a move
for the arms and shoulders, a move for the abs and back, and a move for the
legs and butt, then perform two sets
of each move three to four times per
week.
Arms
& Shoulders: Back Fist
Start off with your knees bent slightly, feet in
fighter’s stance (put your left foot forward), elbows bent; bring right foot
near face. Twist at waist to the right, bringing left fist to the right and
down, straightening left arm.
Arms
& Shoulders: Pike Push Up
Start
this workout in the push up position with your hands in a wide diamond (fingers
pointing toward each other).
Bend your waist, lifting hips up and coming onto
toes, (walk them in a bit if necessary) so body forms an upside-down “V”. Bend
elbows to lower head towards hands.
Press your back up; perform 10 reps.
Abs
& Back; Knee Strike
Stand
with your knees slightly bent, feet in fighter’s position (left foot forward).
Raise your arms up and left as if you are grabbing something.
Engage core muscles and pull hands down as you bend
your right knee and lift up to meet them. Resume to previous position, tapping
right toes to the floor. Perform ten
reps then switch sides and repeat.
Abs
& Back: Sit Up and Punch
Lie
flat down with knees bent, feet on floor, fists up. Engage core and round up
slowly; at top, jab right arm out, retract, jab left. Roll back down.
Perform 10
reps (each side) each of jabs, upper cuts (punching up), and hooks
(punching around the sides).
Legs
& Butt: Back Kick
Stand
with your feet hip-width apart, knees slightly bent, fists up. Lift left foot,
bend knee, and lift thigh parallel to floor; look over left shoulder. Hinge
forward, kicking leg left straight back. Return to original position.
Perform 10
reps; repeat on opposite side.
Legs
& Butt: Crescent Kick
Stand
with your feet hip-width apart, knees slightly bent, fists up. Twist at waist,
lifting left leg to point toes to the right. Kick up and over toward the left
in a half-moon shape.
Lower left leg to tap left toes, then raise it again
and kick it up and over to the right; that is 1 rep. Perform 10 reps,
then switch sides and repeat. For a better challenge, do kicks over the back of
a chair.
These are some great boxing exercises you can do 3-4
times per week for at least 30 minutes a day to stay in shape. You will also
learn some new fighting techniques to defend yourself and that amazing body
that people are jealous of. Along with these awesome exercises, make sure you
eat a balanced diet every day for maximum results and long term weight loss
benefits. I would like to wish everyone a Happy
New Year and make weight loss a top
priority this year!

Lose Belly Fat Forever!
Losing belly fat naturally is something that
everyone desires but just don’t know how to because of all the hype and
influential infomercials that promise you instant results. Although stomach fat
is the most difficult body fat to lose, it is not impossible to lose it
permanently and get six pack abs. The great news is that you don’t have to
starve yourself, take countless supplements, and undergo dangerous surgery or
do millions of sit-ups. Here are some natural but surefire ways to lose that
belly fat once and for all.
Weight
Training
Weight lifting will help boost fat loss, build
muscle and prevent muscle loss. Performing resistance training exercises that focus
on large muscle groups will burn the most calories.
Eat
More Calories
Not eating enough calories will slow down your
body’s metabolism and you will retain more fat than if you were to eat the
right amount of calories. Eating too few calories will also cause you to lose
muscle, not fat, for energy, making you skinny and fat. Always remember that
calories are energy and not eating enough will reduce your energy stores, which
means having a hard time getting through the day or getting a good workout in.
Do
Cardio and Stop Doing Crunches
Performing 15 to 45 minutes of physical activity or
intense cardio workouts three times a week will help you decrease overall body
fat and burn more calories. Doing tons of crunches or other types of ab
exercises will build abdominal muscles, but it won’t help burn belly fat.
Sadly, you can’t reduce the amount of fat in one particular area of your body.
You have to lose fat overall through you whole body to reduce your waistline
through cardio.
Eat
Healthy
Working out hard will strengthen your abs, but if
you don’t eat right, you will always have a layer of belly fat on top of those
muscles. Eliminate processed foods from your diet plan and start eating whole
foods such as protein, veggies, fruits, healthy fats and carbs. Make sure you
eat breakfast each morning and eat small meals every three hours to keep your
metabolism going. It’s helpful to eat carbs right after your workouts and drink
two cups of water with every meal.
Eat
More Protein
Your body burns off more energy processing proteins
than it does processing carbs or fat. If you wish to burn fat you must take in
protein. You should always get your protein from a quality source such as meat,
poultry, fish, eggs, cottage cheese and whey protein; not a burger from
McDonalds or a sausage pizza from Pizza Hut.
Self-Motivation
Developing a clear-cut plan and tracking your weight
loss progress is about the best way to stay motivated. I understand it can be
difficult when you don’t see drastic results right away but success doesn’t
happen overnight. You must stay dedicated and work hard each day to achieve
great results. You can start off by jogging or walking with a partner and
making small changes to your diet. Make sure you track your body measurements
and check the scales to see if your plan is effective. Since boxing is my favorite
sport and provides me with a great workout I get the best of both worlds. Find
a cardio activity you love to do and have fun while doing it to stay motivated.
It may take some time to get the results you desire but the outcome will be
permanent if you continue to work at it and stay committed. Start today on your
belly fat loss efforts and gain the six pack abs you always dreamed of!

Lose Belly Fat With Vaccines
Belly
fat is the most difficult fat to get rid of and causes serious health issues
but researchers discovered a new injection that may help humans reduce stomach
fat.
We are all aware that obesity is a growing issue in
the United States and many individuals are searching endlessly for quick
solutions to lose weight. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
predicts that 42 percent of Americans will be obese by 2030. The bad part about
this is that most people carry the fat in their abdomen area which studies have
shown to be the most dangerous. Many Americans think they can do sit ups or
crunches to lose stomach fat but you will only harden the muscles under the
fat. You must do cardiovascular exercises such as running or jogging to lose
weight all over then do ab workouts.
Researchers at Ohio State’s Comprehensive Cancer
Center are finding out that injecting a small capsule of heat generating cells
in the bellies of mice helped them turn their white or bad fat, which stores
fat in the body, into brown fat. Brown fat is good because it speeds up the
metabolism, which led the mice to eventually lose about 20% of belly fat after
80 days of treatment. Ouliana Ziouzenkova with Ohio State’s Comprehensive
Cancer Center, says “We call it thermagenic fat”.
The mice did gain some weight back overtime but it
wasn’t dramatic. Researchers also found that the vaccine caused a decrease in
visceral fat, the fat around the organs, which was very important.
If the injections are created for humans, it will
not be used as a weight loss device just yet. Instead it will be used for
individuals that are not capable of exercising, for instance, elderly people or
individuals who are handicapped. However, for the ones who are not physically
impaired, diet and exercise is the only
way to lose weight and reduce belly fat successfully. You can’t just
exercise one day then stop all of a sudden. You have to stayed dedicated and
work at it until it becomes a routine. If it’s hard to stay motivated you can
find a partner to work out with you and join you in your diet plans and
workouts. You can start small by making small changes to you
calorie intake and walking if you don't have much energy or time to join a gym.
Start your healthy habits today and become a healthier person for the future.
