Toning Maintenance: Avoiding the Big, Shapeless Belly Flab

One main factor of getting a big belly is not only because of eating too much; the lack of weight resistance exercises also play a big role in getting that big slab of fat in your abdominal area. Hence, you must learn how to work out the big leg muscle groups in order to burn those excess pounds and convert the amino acids into energy. Squatting is a good exercise for this, as it also provides a steady metabolism. You can also support your squats by means of this routine, which you can do right at your own home:
- Open a door and place each foot on either side of the door about 12 inches from it.
- Heels should line up with the back of the door.
- Grab each doorknob, push your crotch forward until it lightly touches the door edge, keeping crotch lightly in touch with the door edge while holding onto the knobs.
- Squat deeply, almost sitting on your heels in the low position.
- Come up about three-fourths of the way.
Do as much as 20 reps of this exercise. This is the most effective way to do a “sissy” squat and at the same time isolate your thighs. You may also put 5 pound plates on your back pockets while doing 20 reps for more challenge.
