The #1 most requested area to improve.

Every time I meet with someone new whether in a group class or in a 1-1 session, the #1 request is for help to trim down the mid-section.  It's one of the hardest areas to get rid of fat.   When trying to target belly fat, the 1st thing you need to do is look at your diet.  Is there a lot of sugar in your diet?  Too many fried foods?  Do a journal for a whole week and you will most likely see the culprit for excess fat.  Next, take a look at your level of activity.  Are you sitting at a desk all day?  Are you only running errands all day and don't have enough time to get to the gym for your favorite class or for that 45 minute run?  While diet plays a very important factor, your level of activity is also going to play a key factor to losing that belly fat.  Note that when you lose weight you will lose all over and your belly will lose along with the rest of you.  Other than surgery, there is no short cut to losing belly fat.  It's a process that will take some time, so be patient and stay determined.  If you want more info, here's a good article from Health Magazine that provides a few more tips for getting there.  Top 10 Belly Fat Tricks from Health Mag.

Hope to see you for a workout soon!  PS: I have 2 persons interested in a 3 week mini-intensive and I just need 2 more to commit and we can start.  Times would be Wed & Fri at 9am.  Email me if you'd like to join.
