Why can't I lose that particular belly fat?

[Anonymous]

I dont get it... I have very few to not at all fat in my body and the only place I have a pretty strong layer is the six pack's lowest 2 abs. Im doing sprinting workouts 4-5 times per weeks along with gym workouts. My routine consists of 4 times per week abdominal exercises (not just crunches). My diet is very healthy! Not the healthiest cause I might eat 1 or 2 little sweets once every week. I dont get it! Is it these 2 sweets the problem? I can't get rid of it...

Most people who think they eat healthy actually don't. There are a lot of very widespread misconception about nutrition.

I recommend you to read some nutrition literature, and only science based. Make sure everything it says it backed by science, because it's amazing how people spread these false ideas so confidently.

I recommend Dr Michael Greger, but it's best if you do your own little online research first.

Even if your diet is healthy, you should count your macros if you're attempting to build muscle and lose fat.
You can find tutorials on YouTube about counting macros, but this is SOOO important when getting fit.

what are macros?

[WassPoppin]

Macronutrients are nutrients that provide calories or energy. Nutrients are substances needed for growth, metabolism, and for other body functions. Since “macro” means large, macronutrients are nutrients needed in large amounts. There are three macronutrients:

Carbohydrate
Protein
Fat

Seriously dude, you should get on YouTube and learn all about it.

Here's where I pulled the definition from

[Justsomeguy9814]

Your diet might be healthy in the wrong way mate, to lose the fat you have to cut your carbs and raise your protein levels and cut the sweets all together

[Asker]

I dont eat sweets. I eat carbs at dinner just to have energy for training...

[Justsomeguy9814]

Get up in the morning and the first thing that you should do is go for a 30 min walk and burn ur stores then eat porridge or something with carbs in in the morning only then protein for other means with minimum carbs and you said in ur question u eat sweets

[Asker]

Yah but its not even that often. I manage to burn that sweet within a day

[Justsomeguy9814]

If u didn't have the sweet tho u would be burning the stores instead of the rubbish u put in

Belly fat is kinda hard to loose bro if you do crunches and plank it will only expands you have to look at your diet too cut the crappy foods and do loads of cardio if you have bike or car get rid of it get a cycle am sure ut will help you a lot

[Asker]

sprinting won't do anything for fat?

[subzero007]

Sprinting will do combining with cycling it helped me though

[Asker]

I can do cycling when Im off sprinting.. meaning july-august. Cycling makes sprinting form false

[subzero007]

Heavy cycling sprinting and combine yoga too

You're probably not resting properly. You need to take a 72 hour break between exercises if you want to build muscles that last a long time.

Welcome to being a woman.

[Asker]

is it really bad that I just want to show the full pack?

[Not_Helping]

No, it's good that you want this, and sad that your body doesn't care.
