Can an elephant pirouette? Well that’s how my head feels when I read about how you can lose weight or how you can have Schwarzenegger’s body in 3 months or in one evening by doing 1.500.000 push-ups between lunch and dinner.

With every body & spirit building question lies yet another question.
How long have you been out of shape? What’s your body type? How fast does your metabolism work? How much do you really want to change? What are you willing to sacrifice for a great body?

It’s funny how a “professional” can offer guidelines with exercises and ways to get fit that seem to work for all types of people.

For a person whose main eating habit is to eat fast food 8,5 days of the week it’s 1000 times better not to exercise for 2 months and instead to change his nutritional habits. It’s better than simply taking the advice of a guru and becoming susceptible to having a stroke.

So in order for us to be able to demand the change we want for ourselves we must determine if the machine called the human body is in the position to make this change in the time frame we give it.

This is extremely important because then we don’t get disappointed by the results that our body is incapable of giving us.

Other than our body we also have to increase our motivation, desire, and determination.

I once read that to reach your goal it takes the use of the 2 spirations: Inspiration and Perspiration.

How many of us are in the position to support an exercise program with total inspiration?

The first piece of advice that someone can give to all body types and all metabolic types is: Don’t rush to start.

The beginning of any exercise program starts with your decision and determination to make it to the finish line; To reach your dream body image.
If you’ve made the decision that you must lose your belly fat you must convince the motivator inside you with your reasons so that it can continue to motivate you and give you the energy you need to accomplish your goal.

Here is some information for your motivation:

When you have a fat belly you increase your chances of getting high blood sugar in the years ahead. When you have a fat stomach you have an extremely higher risk of having a stroke or heart attack in your lifetime.

When you have a fat belly your respiratory system struggles to absorb the oxygen your body needs, and believe me that is doing harm to your body right at this moment. It deprives you of daily activities, capabilities and even emotions.

You are harming your lungs, liver, heart, etc.
So it’s important that you find all the information that will convince your spirit to make the decision to accomplish your goal; To cross that finish line and make the changes you envision.

Starting today, every day for one week when you sit down to eat, take 10 slow breaths and imagine yourself achieving your dream goal. Eat very slowly and if you can, try to chew each bite for 30 seconds. Don’t tell anyone that you have started a program to change. There’s no need for a coach, team mates or judges. If you need them then you haven’t put enough gas into your motivation tank- you haven’t convinced your spirit enough to work with you until the end. Start only when you feel that spiritually you are completely ready to take on this personal journey.

Now depending on how far or close you are from the true meaning of fitness, you must design a program that best suits your needs and when I say a program I mean a time frame. How much time can you devote and invest?
When you have made your decision make sure to include an exercise that you love and make it 1/3 of your exercise program.

Personally I love playing tennis. I could play tennis with a friend for hours, even on the days where I feel down or tired. Even on days when I’m bored I could easily play tennis to pass my time.

You get my drift. You need something to keep you going, even on the days when your motivation is at a low or when your exercise program has exhausted you; something that can rejuvenate you to hit the battlefield once again.

The time has come now to focus on the how; the exercise.
If you are a lot like our friend who enjoys fast food and you want to lose body fat, simply change your eating habits. Start by eating a little more at home. Keep track of the bad eating habits that you like so much.

It’s really easy. Just make a list, such as:

Soft Drinks = ?
Bread = ?
Sweets = ?
Delivery = ?
Etc…

Once you’ve finished this list, it gives you a good idea of your weekly calorie intake. Start depriving yourself of some of these things and substitute them with items that will improve your health.

Cut about 20% from each category and change them to healthier types or non at all. For example, subtract 1 soft drink and add 1 fruit juice. Or simply subtract 1 soft drink. Eat more but smaller portions throughout the day.

Your exercise program must include at least 4 20-minute sessions per day, where your heart rate goes above 120 beats per minute and you are sweating. (If you’re not sweating then increase the intensity).

For example, intense walking where every step focuses on the abdomen area by lightly squeezing the abs with every step you take.

Muscle balancing exercises are usually conducted on a balancing ball.

Less but slower and more intense sit-ups are best. It’s better to do less the right way than 1000 the wrong way. A good place to do sit-ups is on a yoga mat. Yoga mats don’t take up too much space and are good protection for your back.

Try this on a regular basis for 2 months.

These very simple exercises and methods make all the difference.
There are many secrets and tricks but it all depends on who is asking.
I wrote this article with the idea that most people who are interested in losing weight or stomach fat aren’t usually professionals and haven’t devoted their lives to exercise.

Now, if you have decided to completely devote yourself to your decision to change, you can get whatever you need from here
