any good workouts to flatten stomach?

[junebug]

I want to drop some weight there, it's not bad but it does poke out. a bunch of core workouts I'm seeing totally get rid of your hourglass though and I hate that idea

You can’t spot reduce fat, so if you want to lose weight in your stomach you’d have to lose weight overall/lower your body fat percentage. Core workouts will just help you build abs/burn calories in general, which is helpful for body recomping and aesthetics actually so I would still recommend them, but the one you’re mentioning that builds a “boxier” look are those that target the obliques so you want to find one that doesn’t specifically. Some good core workouts are hollow body holds and butterfly kicks (which you can combine with crunches). Abs you can typically train with just bodyweight but there are always gym ab machines or just add ankle weights for resistance. Fat on stomach can also be cause of bloating sometimes too tho btw

yeah I think I have a bit of excess body fat, my bmi is like 20 something iirc I want it to go down to 19 something. my posture is bad so it all kind of collects at my lower abdomen lol

sucks that I can't spot reduce :-( I'll stick to deficit, cardio for calorie burning, and light ab workouts I guess

Don’t starve yourself and eat high protein too, it’s also possible to body recomp at maintenance as well btw. Oftentimes if you do resistance training you won’t need much cardio on top of it since it also burns calories itself

God damn sissy snowflakes cant handle a bit of fasting here and there

 

[genio]

Youd be 6 feet down in an hour

Fasting is different from starving, I used to be overweight actually and I lost 50 lbs by doing OMAD so a 23:1 fast but I still wasn’t starving myself since I counted calories and made sure I got 1,200 in that one meal

 

[wildfrost11]

eat less jk

 

[Starlet]

yeah not effective, healthy, or optimal. I don’t understand why people feel the need to rush weight loss so much tbh

Its optimal at 200mg if youre in a cold environment
Keeping a ryanodine inhibitor on hand would also help
I think its quite safe in the correct conditions

I'm already quite thin I just want to lose a little more, I'm 5'9 and 135.5lbs last I checked
I've been doing 1800 cal/day give or take and have started doing cardio at the gym, also I now have a job where I'm on my feet a lot so we'll see where this takes me

Yeah unless you’re active it’s unlikely 1,800 calories is a deficit, it could be maintenance or even high (probably maintenance). can’t believe you just picked a random number without even checking
