How to burn fat on stomach without losing muscles?
How do i burn the fat on my stomach to make my abs show but not lose potential muscle mass or fat in other places? If this is possible is it ok to do it the days after you weight train?
Since we cant spot reduce body fat the only way to get rid of fat in any specific areas is by lowering your body fat percentage which you achieve by healthy diet and exercise.
To not lose muscle never go over 60min doing cardio – do it 4-6 times a week for average of 45min
the best thing is to do cardio after weight training – you are full of energy to lift weights and can spend all thats left doing cardio
Diet is actually 80% of fat loss so you have to watch what you eat and count calories -once you get used to certain amount you wont have to count anymore -your body will feel it naturally
find daily calorie intake calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours – it optimizes your metabolism)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast – they give you energy
have protein (lean meat, legumes etc) for dinner – repairs muscle
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, pasta etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

You can’t actually burn fat in a specific place; it has to come off from everywhere. You need to do effective, intense core (not just ab) work along with cardio, toning or weight-lifting, a diet rich in fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein to get a 6-pack/toned tummy and streamlined shape.
Good luck!

This is how I lost the weight on my stomach after having 2 kids, its called the Acai berry, you can only get it in the rain forest. There is a company that put it into a fruit drink along with 18 other fruits. Check it out here:

- The secret to your Flattest Abs Ever
The secret to your flattest Abs ever – Keep the contraction constant while doing crunches. "When you lower your back and head to the floor between each move, you rely on your hip flexors or upper back, rather than your abs, to bring your body back up. Making the movement small and tight keeps abdominal muscles active, which maximizes the burn, and your results." – David Kirsch, founder of The Madison Square Club in New York City and author of The Ultimate New York Body Plan.
