Lose That Deep Down Belly Fat in Two Simple Steps

Want to know how to get rid of visceral fat? There are really two simple steps. Let’s spell it out so that you can have that flat belly with six pack abs most people find so attractive.
1. HIT Exercise
It’s important to note that just any old exercise program will not do the trick. Although exercise will help you to lose weight and belly fat, it takes a certain type of exercise to target that visceral fat. You will see a lot of people doing the same old cardio with a few little dancing steps, or doing endless sit-ups and crunches, trying to ditch that belly, only to become frustrated and give up after months of hard work with very little results. Low intensity training won’t do the trick either.
The exercise that will get rid of that visceral belly fat is called High Intensity Interval Training, along with full body resistance training. You will sometimes see this type of exercise called Burst Training. HIT exercise will really push your body into becoming a virtual fat burning machine. What it involves is giving between 90 to 100 percent of your effort for about 30 seconds, and then slowing things back down to low impact for one or two minutes, then jumping back into the highest intensity possible.
For example, let’s say that you are walking on the treadmill. After warming up, you would walk for 1 or 2 minutes at a slower speed, perhaps 3 miles an hour. Then you start running, as fast as you can, for between 30 seconds to one minute, then go back to walking for a minute or two. You repeat this cycle 4 or 6 times, at least 3 days per week. This will get you the results you are looking for. That ugly belly fat will literally seem to melt off of you. You should also do weight training the other two days per week, to help build those muscles up as well, which will also burn more fat each day.
There is another part to this. Keep reading for step 2.
