3 simple exercises to get rid of lower belly fat

You can do these 3 sitting exercises anywhere, even at work, to "blast away" belly fat, which is considered the most stubborn type of fat.

Siobhan Sweet, a fitness trainer with a TikTok account of more than 29,000 followers specializing in weight loss for menopausal women, recommends three exercises to help people lose belly fat. These exercises are easy because they can be done while sitting, anywhere, even at work.

Here are three exercises that can reduce belly fat, as suggested by Siobhan:

- Elbow to knee: Sit on a chair, place your hands behind your head and bend over so that your right or left elbow touches your opposite knee. Keep your knee elevated while performing the exercise.

- Open, close and close: While sitting, lift both legs up so that they are still straight. Then, open your legs, close your legs, and then bring your legs close to your chest.

- Touch your toes: While sitting, alternately lift your right leg straight up and then lift your left leg, while stretching your opposite arm to touch your toes.

“Do all the exercises for 20 seconds and then repeat,” advises Siobhan.

Aerobic exercise, along with a healthy diet, can also help reduce belly fat and overall body fat.

“Aerobic exercise includes any activity that increases your heart rate, such as walking, dancing, running or swimming,” says Laura Cartwright, a cardiac rehabilitation specialist and exercise physiologist at Wrexham Maelor Hospital.

In addition, women can do housework, gardening and play with children. Other types of exercises such as strength training, Pilates and yoga also help reduce belly fat.

The UK National Health Service (NHS) has some advice when it comes to physical activity. Accordingly, all adults should increase the intensity of exercise for all major muscle groups (legs, hips, back, abdomen, chest, shoulders and arms) at least two days a week. They should do at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercise a week or 75 minutes of vigorous intensity exercise a week.

Exercise should also be spread out over the course of a day or 4 to 5 days a week. Also, long periods of inactivity, sitting or lying down, should be broken up with some physical activity.
