4 Simple Daily Exercises to Lose Belly Fat

Thanh Thanh |

Eat this not that page offers 4 simple daily exercises to reduce belly fat.

1. Plank

Lie on your stomach with your elbows directly under your shoulders, forearms parallel to each other, and hands straight or clenched.

Stretch your legs back, balancing on your toes. Your body should form a straight line from head to heels. Tighten your abdominal muscles, avoiding sagging hips or rounding your back.

Include these exercises in your daily workout routine to help reduce belly fat and back pain.

2. Russian Twist

Sit on the floor with your knees bent and feet flat. Lean back slightly, keeping your spine straight. Hold a dumbbell and rotate your torso to the right, then to the left.

This exercise helps strengthen the intercostal muscles, making them more flexible, thereby improving spinal health.

3. Mountain climbing pose

Start in a high plank position with your hands under your shoulders. Bring your right knee toward your chest, then quickly switch to your left knee.

Alternate your knees in a running motion while keeping your abs engaged. This high-intensity exercise promotes calorie burn and reduces belly fat.

4. Bicycle crunches

Lie on your back with your hands behind your head. Bring your right elbow toward your left knee while extending your right leg. Alternate sides in a cycling motion.

Bicycle crunches work both the rectus abdominis and intercostal muscles, effectively reducing belly fat.
