How do I know how to lose belly fat fast? Because once I stopped doing crunches, I started getting a flat stomach. If you really want to know how to lose belly fat then you first have to stop watching late night and weekend infomercials that feature a new ab machine every few months.
Those machines are a terrible way to lose belly fat. Some of them may help a little with strengthening your abs, but what’s the point of having strong abs with fat covered all over them?
There is only three ways you can lose belly fat fast: Developing fat burning nutrient dense eating habits, doing high intensity interval training, and ab stabilizing weight lifting routines (i.e. Pushups). The combination of these three things is the key to increasing your metabolism which will help you lose belly fat fast.
If you do one without the other, you may lose belly fat, but it won’t be fast. You’ve probably heard that you have to do aerobic workouts to burn the fat off your abs, and crunches to build the muscle underneath. Yes that works – but it’s the slowest way.
If you’re like me, you don’t have time to do boring cardio everyday, and 100 crunches every night. Even if you did have the time, once again, that will not burn belly fat fast. If you believe that it’s the fastest way, then you’re stuck in the ’90s… come on and move into the 21st century like the rest of us who know the truth about burning fat fast off of any part of the body.
Once again, to lose belly fat fast you must…
1. Focus on a fat burning nutrient dense diet
2. Make high intensity interval training apart of your workout routine
3. Do ab stabilizing weight lifting movements

I use to think that losing belly fat was all about doing crunches. For years fitness experts have been teaching us not to do situps, but crunches are the way to get six pack abs. I use to buy all of the popular ab machines you see on the infomercials thinking that I would get a good ab workout and a nice flat stomach. Well guess what? I was wrong.
I had been on a weight loss roller coaster for years, and back in 2003 I learned how to naturally speed up my metabolism and keep the weight off for good from Tom Venuto. As a matter of fact, my metabolism increased so much that I was eating junk food several times throughout the week yet I was still able to burn body fat.
The problem was that no matter how much fat I lost, I had never been able to get tight abs. Yes my abs had definition and was flat, but I wasn’t satisfied with that. I had fat covering the muscles, and the definition was just a basic outline of the defined abs that lied beneath.
Recently I was introduced to Mike Geary and his The Truth about Six Pack Abs program and now I finally understand what my problem was – I had been focusing too much attention on crunches. Crunches are excellent for building strong core strength, but terrible for getting definition.
The other problem was the junk food. I thought that I could eat anything I wanted because I was just going to burn it off anyway, but when it comes to abdominal fat that’s simply not the case. In order to lose a large percentage of belly fat and have your abdominal muscles show, you must have good eating habits. I am a living testimony of that fact. I don’t care how much fat you lose or how toned any other part of your body is, without eating properly, you will never get great abs.
Mike had taught me the truth about how the soy milk (which I thought was healthy) I was drinking was actually helping me to store body fat, and how multi joint free weight exercises were better ab workouts than crunches. As a matter of fact, doing pushups and squats burn abdominal fat faster than crunches. Don’t believe me? Try it and see.
If you really want toned flat abs with plenty of definition you must adopt the right eating habits, avoid food that help you to store fat (ie soy protein), and do multi joint free weight exercises.
