How Do I Lose Belly Fat? -Day 50

from Lose Weight + Build Muscle After 35: The Body Recomposition Podcast · host RAC Fitness - Robyn Creary

Wondering how to lose belly fat or get rid of "bat wings"? The answer is not more crunches or triceps exercises. Today, we break down one of the biggest myths in fitness - spot reduction, and explain why decades of research show you can't choose where your body loses fat. Instead, you'll learn why body recomposition is the real solution, especially for women over 35. We go over why belly fat often becomes more noticeable during perimenopause, how hormones, muscle loss, sleep, stress, and alcohol influence body composition, and why strategically building muscle creates the appearance of a leaner, more sculpted physique. Most importantly, you'll learn the body recomposition hierarchy that consistently drives fat loss and muscle definition: maintain a calorie deficit, prioritize protein, strength train progressively, use cardio to support your health, and stay consistent long enough for your body to change. 💪 Ready to workout with us?
