Burning belly fat not only improves your physique but also improves your health.
To burn fat in any area of the body, including the thighs and belly, you need to integrate cardio and toning into your weekly routine. Eating healthy and slashing calories will also help you lose weight and fat. Replace unhealthy snacks with foods that target belly fat such as olives, avocado and nuts. Cut down the amount of carbs and sugar you consume each day. Aim for 30 to 60 minutes of cardio every day.
