I have a lot of fat around my mid-section, what are some good exercises to get rid of it?
[ Updated January 27, 2007 ] You can’t spot-reduce your fat. Our bodies simply don’t work that way, so put the notion of targeted fat loss out of your head. The only way to reduce the fat around your mid-section (or anywhere else) is to reduce your overall body fat levels. It’s also very important to do everything you can to preserve your existing lean muscle mass while dieting. This is accomplished by creating a mild caloric deficit (eating slightly less calories than your body requires), consuming a wholesome, well-balanced diet and weight training. Cardio-vascular workouts can also be a very helpful part of your overall fat loss program, however a proper diet and resistance training should be your top priorities.
