5 Tips For Getting Rid of Belly Fat
Let’s discuss how I plan to lose belly fat, especially with my Emerald Cup bodybuilding competition (over 60 physique division) looming.
I have about seven weeks to the competition.
This approach is my battle plan, not a quick fix.
Here are my five tips for getting rid of belly fat.
1. I Am Reducing Calories in a Smart Way
We’ve all heard the “eat less, move more” mantra, but it’s not about punishing yourself.
Generally, weight loss should lead to a drop in abdominal fat.
I target my entire body and health, not my belly in isolation.

I think of my body as an engine needing the right fuel to run efficiently.
Instead of drastic cuts, I focus on swapping out the junk for the good stuff.
The cutting phase is when I try to pile my plate with brightly colored, lean protein like chicken and fish and healthy fats from avocados and nuts.
This approach keeps me full and satisfied, which is key.
