What Will Ab Workouts Do To The Layer Of Fat Over My Stomach?
Posted on December 19th, 2009 in Burn Stomach Fat
I have like a Soft stomach with a little layer of fat over it and I’m wondering…
If I start doing ab workouts will that muscle burn away while muscle is accumulating or will muscle just accumulate under the fat?

In order to burn the layer of fat over your abs, you must do cardio.
Also, spot reducing does not work. You cannot spot reduce. Your body type might either be a pear, apple, hourglass, or rectangle. Losing weight will only make you a smaller version of that body type. “Spot reducing” exercises like squats will only build up the muscle and make it bigger, I suggest you balance out the problem by building up the muscles in the areas that you lack, making you more of an hourglass.
Eat food as close to it’s natural state as possible. (Ex. veggies, fruits, beans, seeds, eggs, lean meat/not beef jerky or sandwich meats.) You don’t want all those additives, preservatives, fats, food dyes, etc. They mess with your metabolism and toxify your body.
Rule of thumb: If it comes in a wrapper, (meaning it’s processed,) don’t eat it!
I would also limit cheese and meat since those are fattening and you can get your calcium and protein from other sources, like leafy greens, and quinoa.
Just eat a little less than what you normally do, the goal is to not feel stuffed, just full. Eat many small meals throughout the day to keep the metabolism high and burning. You won’t have to count calories, and you will lose weight. Do not starve yourself!! Starvation mode makes you lose muscle and makes you gain fat. When you eat again, your body will hoard fat and your lost muscle will be replaced by fat. Muscle is metabolically active and burns calories even while you are resting, so losing muscle from starving is detrimental. Also you become a skinny fat person, that looks disgusting because there is no muscle tone.
If you get cravings, think of what it is you’re craving: texture, taste?
For example, you crave sweets. Eat fruit. Or drink vanilla almond milk. Or eat butternut squash or sweet potatoes.
Or if you crave something salty, have nuts, or have tomatoes or cucumbers with salt.
Crunchy, have nuts or seeds
These are just some examples. If you crave chocolate, eat the 85% dark chocolate. You will get tons of antioxidants, and more chocolate to satisfy your craving with less junk.
Do not drink pop, even diet pop. Diet foods are evil and all the artificial sweeteners WILL make you gain weight. Studies have proven this.
Also exercise, constantly challenge your body and you will lose weight! Don’t buy into the acai berry, special K, or colon cleanse scams. They’re scams scams scams!!

The only way of getting rid of the layer of fat is eating healthy. Of course Ab exercises help also. Along with running, cardio workouts.

Do crunches and such to increase muscle tone on your stomach and then diet and do cardio to decrease fat. You cannot lose weight in targeted areas like they claim infomercials. Good luck!
