Can the belts tighten the abdominal muscles?

in #health6 years ago

Many believe that narrow, tight belts that reduce the size of the abdomen when you wear them remove the accumulated fat and make the abdomen flat.

The belts only temporarily squeeze and redistribute fat and skin around the abdomen. When it comes to wanting a flat belly, diet and exercise are the best, not the belt.

Changing diet and exercising can help reduce some excess weight, including excess weight around the waist, where aerobic activities burn fat, and basic muscle exercises strengthen and tighten the inner muscles.

Basic muscle exercises include:

  • Exercises crunches abdominal muscles.
  • Exercises lifting legs.
  • Exercises to stand tilted.
  • Exercise bridge, is an exercise needs to effort and fatigue, but very useful to tighten the thighs and taut abdomen.
    But any exercise that trains the body stem without support will be helpful, including pilates exercises and fitness ball exercises.

Nothing more mortifying than seeing celebrities trying sell "waist trainers" again after learning about the horrible effects of prolonged tight corset use has on internal organs.

A caloric deficit is necessary for weight loss, but spot reducing is not possible. My promising anecdotal results for reducing the size of my stomach significantly was decreasing my carb intake, but this is likely due to inflammation/water retention than fat loss. Keep after your goals!

Sports and health food the best way
