A recent study of 360,000 Europeans revealed that extra belly fat was even worse than originally thought . Research revealed that the link between excess belly fat and a myriad of diseases was so strong that the lead researcher Dr. Tobias Pinchon stated “There aren’t many simple individual characteristics that can increase a person’s risk of premature death to this extent, independent of smoking and drinking.” When an esteemed researcher says something like that, one has to take notice .

Thankfully, if you’re burdened by extra fat around your midsection, all hope is not lost. You needn’t be condemed to die of a heart attack or stroke due to your excess weight. There are 3 simple rules you can follow that will have an amazing effect on your excess weight. It will be almost like the hot, Arizona sun on a snowball.

Getting Rid of Belly Fat Rule 1
Start resistance training – Conventional wisdom dictates that long cardio sessions in the “Fat Burning Zone” of about 60% to 70% of your maximum exertion rate are the most effective way to get rid of your excess fat. New research has uncovered that while you will, indeed burn fat in this way, it is not the most effective way to do it .  The muscle you get from weight training actually speeds up your fat loss efforts. The muscle requires your body to burn additional calories to just keep it alive. That in turn raises your basal metabolic rate, causing you to burn more calories all day and night, not just during the exercise period and for an hour or so afterwards, like medium intensity cardio sessions. The calories you burn by raising your basal metabolic rate will more than compensate for the fewer calories you burn by doing shorter workouts, as compared to hour long cardio sessions. Sure, you may be sore for a few days at the bedinning, but it is good trade off for the weight you’ll lose.

Getting Rid of Belly Fat Rule 2
Get rid of sugar . Actually, you should avoid high glycemic index carbohydrates, but especially processed sugar and high fructose corn sweeteners . Glycemic index is a measure of how fast a carbohydrate affects your blood sugar level. Three of the worst offenders are refined sugar, white rice, and white flour. Rid your diet of as many foods containing these ingredients as possible. Remember that things such as breading are made from white flour. A very important part of getting rid of such things from your diet is taking the time to read the ingredient labels on your food before you buy it. Research has shown that a diet rich in such carbs soon leads to a belly rich in excess fat.  You can take fat loss powders and pills, but even the best thermogenic fat burner is no substitute for the proper diet and a a few minutes  of high intensity exercise.

Getting Rid of Belly Fat Rule 3
Eat more meals. That doesn’t mean you eat more food. You should eat the same amount of food you eat now, or possibly a bit less , but you should break up your caloric intake into more, smaller portions throughout the day. Instead of 3 meals, eat 5 to 6 smaller meals. You body will be better able to absorb the nutritional content of your food. Less of your food will be stored as fat and you will benefit more from the food you eat. Even better , you will feel full throughout the day, and want to eat less.
