Belly Exercises For Women

 

If you want to tone your stomach so it's flat and sexy, you need to do 2 things: lose belly fat and work on those abs muscles. In this article I'll provide exercises which do both so make sure to read all the way through and actually apply what you learn here.

Fat Burning Exercises

Belly fat burning exercises for women don't have to work the abs directly. What they need to do is exert the body so that you burn a lot of calories and fat. The key is to do intensive cardio and/or strength exercises which work more than a single muscle group. Here are some great strength exercises to burn fat:

1. Squats
2. Lunges
3. Step-ups
4. Push-ups
5. Chest presses
6. Shoulder thrusts

As you can see, none of these exercises work the abs directly but they burn a lot of stomach fat still and also work the belly indirectly as the tummy muscles help to stabilize the body while you're doing these workouts.

You should also try to make your cardio workouts as intensive as possible. Here are some great workouts:

1. Running
2. Rowing
3. Spinning
4. Jumping Rope

Belly Toning Exercises for women

While these abs focused exercises may not burn a lot of stomach fat, they do help to tone the abs. You don't need to spend hours on these. 10 minutes each workout at the most. These belly exercises include:

1. The plank
2. Hanging leg raises
3. Bicycle crunches
4. Hip lifts
5. Reverse crunches
6. Captain chair leg raises

You need to focus more on fat burning exercises than you do on abs workouts since the key is to get as lean as possible. Once you do, your stomach will be flat. Toning it will then make it appear even firmer, but the biggest thing is to burn off the excess fat.
