Can you get a flat stomach with dieting alone?

January 11th, 2013 Leave a comment Go to comments

If you keep dieting, will you get a flat stomach eventually or do you absolutely NEED to exercise?

Most people have a layer of fat over their abdominal muscles and this is why they don’t see them. Diet is probably around 80% but exercise is important too. Swiss ball exercises will strengthen your core muscles which support your internal organs and posture. Sit ups or other ab exercises will improve the look of your stomach muscles once you uncover them. A mixture of cardio and resistance training will help you do this more quickly. Train the big muscles like the legs, chest and back to burn most calories as this will burn fat from the stomach area too. Spot training won’t work. Hope this helps.

    Have to exercise to maintain a flat stomach. Especially as you get older.

    Eat healthy do NOT diet, and exercise is absolutely necessary.

    It depends on how much weight you need to lose, your age, height and weight distribution.
    The golden rule is 75% diet 25% workout. Abs are made in the kitchen!!!

    You absolutely need to exercise, since a flat, toned stomach is a result of having low body fat and being healthy. Exercising is healthy. You don’t have to do 200 sit ups or something a day, though. Just some core exercises and 30 – 40 minutes of good cardio will do you great, if you have a healthy diet.

    Just lay down on the floor and bounce a ball off a wall using your belly by lifting your shoulders off the floor.
    Try it …

    You should, walking a couple of hours a few times a week is enough
