3 Deadly Mistakes I Make to Lose Belly Fat
After fixing these mistakes, I started losing inches from my waist
My fat-gaining journey always started with my belly, then my chin, and then other parts.
It’s very easy to accumulate fat in the belly, but that much hard to get rid of it.
So to get rid of stubborn belly fat, I tried many things like doing crunches for hours, skipping meals, and guzzling “fat-burning” juices, only to see the scale mock me and my waistline stay the same (with a lot of frustration).
In my belly fat loss journey, I made many mistakes, but today I share 3 deadly mistakes which may sound stupid, but I did…
Mistake #1: Thinking You Can Spot-Reduce with Endless Crunches
I used to believe that 100 crunches a day would melt my belly fat.
Spoiler: it didn’t.
I’d sweat, I’d ache, but my belly stayed stubbornly soft. Why? Because spot reduction is a myth.
Your body doesn’t burn fat from one area just because you’re working those muscles.
Fat loss happens across your whole body when you create a calorie deficit and boost your metabolism.
