Abdominal Crunches for Fat Burning Results

Doing 70 abdominal crunches per day will firm up, trim down, and remove the extra layer of fat around your midsection. FACT or FALLACY? [Answer = FALLACY.]

Here’s why:

What's your "guess" on how to lose weight specifically around your tummy? Truthfully, expecting to lose weight in just one place will grant you some frustrating thoughts. It's far better to work your entire body, than to focus your weight loss effort on one particular part.

(Do you also believe that doing 70 abdominal crunches per day will firm up, trim down, and remove the extra layer of fat around your midsection? I'll gladly inform you that this is a FALSE belief and it's because fat actually resides predominantly in the subcutaneous skin layer.)

(Abdominal crunches only work your muscles, not subcutaneous skin, which requires a cellular attack. You therefore must get to the source... that is, 1) curtail fat formulation by eating foods that don't create it: and 2) push your preexisting excess food energy into your cellular metabolic furnace (called mitochondria) for "burning." You accomplish this via threshold reaching aerobic and cardiovascular endurance exercise with the gradual addition of lightweight resistance.)

Okay, enough with the tough terminology, right? You may be asking, “What does this all really mean for me, in simple terms?”

It only means that you have to do just a little bit more, in order to achieve weight loss satisfaction and success. And, I’ll tell you why, by revealing the following little body fat secret.

Your body already knows its set point. Therefore, you must almost always SURPASS that point. This only means, for example, if you’re walking slow right now, you have to walk just a little bit faster. Why? You move faster in order to get what’s called “past your threshold barrier.”

Let’s explain the barrier in the next post, okay? You’ve got enough to digest for today.
