How to Get Rid of My Lower Abdomen Fat

The lower abdomen is one of the most common areas of the body that people would like to slim down. Lean, solid abs are a sign of good health and a person who eats a good diet and exercises regularly. It's a very common misconception that a person can eliminate the body fat in one particularly area of the body, an idea known as "spot reduction." However, in order to get rid of lower abdomen fat, you have to reduce the amount of fat in your entire body. This is no easy task and requires consistency and discipline. In other words, you must change your dietary habits and lifestyle if you want those hard, sexy abs.

  Start eating a healthier diet that includes ample portions of whole grains, lean protein, fruits, and vegetables. Cut out the junk food, especially fried foods, soft drinks, and other high-calorie snacks with high sugar and fat content. Beer is also a major contributor to body fat and really does accumulate around the belly. Drink eight glasses of water a day to help your body flush out toxins and function properly.

  Start getting regular aerobic exercise. You don't need to go out and buy a $2,000 exercise machine or join some posh gym. All you need to do is go for a brisk walk, take a bike ride, go for a jog, or do some inline skating. Anything in which your heart rate goes up a little and your breathing increases is perfectly fine as long as you're eating right. Remember: if you want to get rid of the abdomen fat, you have to lower the fat content in your entire body.

  Exercise your lower abdominal muscles a few times a week. You should really exercise all your muscles, but if you want a six-pack, you're going to have to pay special attention to this muscle group. Again, no fancy equipment is necessary. Old-school sit-ups, crunches, and leg lifts are just what you need to tone those abs.
