Flat Stomach Exercises - Defined

By Jose Loni

Flat stomach exercises can be defined as anaerobic high intensity exercises. Spot reducing does not work when it comes to getting a flat stomach. Anaerobic training is the fastest way to achieving ripped abs. Increasing your metabolism by incorporating interval sets into our exercise program and training with greater frequency will give you a flat stomach.

Spot reduction is not effective at flattening your stomach. Training the abdominal muscles directly will increase the strength and help support the back, but it will not remove the fat on the stomach. To burn fat we must do overall, body fat burning to remove the visible abdominal fat to allow for the underlying abs to be seen.

Anaerobic exercises cause an oxygen debt, which is a lack of oxygen in the muscles of the body. The increased exercise activity increases the amount of carbon dioxide and lactic acid in the muscles. When the body is resting, the body is quickly trying to get oxygen into the muscles to nourish, repair and clear the waste products in the muscles. As a result, the muscle metabolic activity is increased and needs to expend more energy to function.

During rest, the body will be working hard to replenish, repair the muscles to prepare it for the next bout of exercise. The body will also remove the waste products from the muscles.

Interval set training also creates an oxygen debt situation in the muscles. This causes the body to really increase its metabolic activity to keep providing energy to the increased physical activity, thereby increasing overall fat burning.

The muscles utilize the calories from the food we eat and when that is fully consumed, it turns to the fat stores on our body to provide the necessary energy. This fat burning process increases the body's capacity to burn fat and keeps actively replenishing and repairing the muscles well after the exercise session has ended.

Having a regular exercise program keeps the body active in burning fat as well as efficient at providing oxygen, energy and removing waste products from the muscles. This regular training has a cumulative effect and keeps the body's metabolism high as well as strong and healthy. - 17269
