While sitting in your cubicle crunching numbers you can actually be doing crunches to help burn belly fat. Belly fat is all that extra rubbery stuff that sits around your midsection. The more fat you have here, the harder your heart has to work to pump blood to the rest of your body. Do you want to know what you can do, at work, to burn belly fat and get healthy while poring over your desk at work?
Here are three ways:
Sit-ups while Sitting Up
While sitting up straight in your desk chair, pull all of your belly muscles in so that it feels like you are touching your back bone with your belly button. No sucking in! Actually use those muscles! Once you have your belly button and back bone "touching", hold it for 10 seconds then slowly release. Repeat this 6-10 times. The more you do, the more belly fat you burn.
Belly Rolls
To burn belly fat at your desk try doing some belly rolls. Ever see belly dancers skillfully roll the bellies? Well, you don't necessarily have to do it like them, but the idea is the same. While sitting up straight in your desk chair, slowly pull your lower abdominal muscles toward your backbone then release those muscles as you pull the muscles in your midsection. Repeat this process with the muscles in your upper abs. Repeat these belly rolls 6-10 times or even more.
Twisting in the Wind
Another way to burn belly fat while sitting at your desk is to use your ab muscles to twist your torso in your seat. Twist from side to side. This works the love handle muscles.
When you want to burn belly fat without going on break, try these simple exercises right where you work.
