There are various cause that form that concentration of fat around your abs, it can be lifestyle, food allergies, bacteria, stress, bloating, and inflammation. When you get older, the chance is high that you’ll develop more belly fat and one of the best way to get rid of it is regular exercise that designed to reduce your body fat.

The best exercise to lose belly fat are cardio exercise and weight training. It may not seem to train the abs directly, but in term of burning fat, you can’t choose just one area of your body; instead, the exercises will result in fat burning all over your body.

Cardio Exercise – How to Identify It
To get rid of belly fat means to burn the fat directly from all of your fat cells and that means you can’t do it by perform exercises that only focus on your abs like crunches or sit ups.
Instead, do cardio exercises, which can be any type of exercise or activities that strengthen your cardiovascular system. How to identify a cardio exercise? Simple, if it get your heart rate up, it is cardio. However, please aware that ‘traditional’ cardio such as jogging or biking will have very little impact to your belly; you may even get bored before you see any result.

Note that I’m not against jogging, walking, or biking. They may not offer fast result, but they do can keep your body fitness. I even suggest them on post pregnancy women who try to lose weight; read the full story at how to lose pregnancy weight.

Cardio Exercise and Weight Training – the Best Application
If jogging or biking won’t do, which exercise can do the trick? The answer is the combination of both cardio and weight training; the good news is there is a trick to do it efficiently.

The trick is to do both cardio and weight training simultaneously; you strengthen your cardiovascular system while building muscle. Here’s some examples:

1. Pick a dumbbell or barbell, lift it from the floor to your shoulder level, then push it overhead; all of this are done in standing/crouch position. Remember to choose the weight that challenging enough for you. Do a set of 10-15 reps and you’ll be surprise to find that you’re huffing and puffing like you just climbed seven storeys building.

2.Get a dumbbell and do one arm snatches; 20 reps for each arm. Again, choose the appropriate weight for your dumbbell.

3. A series of bodyweight squats, lunges, and push ups for five minutes straight with little rest.

All the exercises above are looked like weight training or strength training, but it also strengthen your cardiovascular system as well, so you got two benefits in one go.
