The two of the most important aspects to getting rid of visceral fat are
From my research, two of the most important aspects to getting rid of visceral fat are:
1. The use of high
intensity forms of exercise and full-body resistance training. Low
intensity cardio exercise simply isn't as effective for removing
visceral fat in particular. High intensity exercise such as interval
training, sprints (bike sprints or running sprints), AND
full-body weight training are very effective at helping to improve your
body's ability to manage glucose and increases insulin sensitivity, a
crucial step in removing visceral fat.
These
types of high intensity exercise routines are also very effective at
increasing your fat-burning hormones and creating a hormonal environment
conducive to burning off abdominal fat, including visceral fat.
2. In addition,
it's vitally important to get blood sugar under control to help restore
insulin sensitivity through the right nutrition. This means greatly
reducing sugars and refined starches in your diet (including fully
eliminating any use of harmful high fructose corn syrup!), and focusing
more of your diet on healthy fats (such as avocados,
nuts, seeds, coconut fat, olive oil, grass-fed butter, free-range eggs,
fatty fish and fish oils, etc), as well as increasing protein and fiber
intake. The standard diet recommended by the government, which contains
an unnaturally high grain intake is NOT conducive to controlling blood
sugar and reducing visceral fat!
Reducing grain-based foods in your
diet and getting more of your carbs from veggies and high fiber fruits
such as berries can go a long way to helping to solve this problem.
