People have
been led to believe by the media trying to sell gimmicks that certain exercises
will burn fat in certain areas. We all remember the "Thigh Master", who go skinnier thighs from using that? For
example doing a thousand crunches and other abdominal exercises will drop body fat in your
abdominal area right?...No this is ridiculous and doesn’t work!, Here’s why;
This is a myth known as “spot
reduction” and will not work. Fat stored
in the abdominal region, known as adipose tissue cannot be burned by the body
until it is converted into Free Fatty Acids (FFA) by the liver witch when
metabolized create large quantities of ATP; which provides energy for the
body. For this to take place your body
needs to be burning more calories than are being consumed. Unfortunately fat is lost on the entire body
and is genetically determined where it will be burned from first. Diet and exercise will reduce ENTIRE body fat
not just from one place.
The truth is you have no more
control over where you lose body fat from than you did over where you gained
it!
