One of the easiest ways to look fit and thin is by having a flat stomach. That means your belly doesn’t hang over your waistband when you’re wearing jeans or even a bathing suit.

It also puts your abdominal muscles on full display at the beach.

As much as you want to look good, getting rid of that unsightly belly fat will help to lower your risk of certain health issues as well. Let’s take a look at what those are.

  • Heart disease, heart attack, and stroke
  • Diabetes
  • Breathing difficulties like asthma or sleep apnea
  • Certain types of cancer

3 Quick Flat Stomach Tips

Do Ab Exercises

Will doing a million crunches help you to lose weight in your stomach area? Probably not.

What ab exercises will do is help you to tone your abdominal muscles as a whole. So when you eventually lose weight in the belly area, your stomach will be both flat and toned.

Just like any other muscle in your body, you want to do 15 reps or less for a set. If you can easily knock out 20 reps without trouble, then add some resistance (i.e. Holding a medicine ball at your chest as you do crunches).

Overtraining your abs will do nothing more than cause injury and breakdown the muscles.

Lower Your Caloric Intake

The first and most obvious way to lose weight is by reducing the number of calories you’re eating in a day. Cutting about 500 calories a day can help you to lose 1 pound a week.

But be careful not to overdo it.

Calories serve as fuel for your body, so not eating enough can leave you feeling tired or even result in muscle loss. Also, remember that your body needs carbs, protein, and fat to perform its daily functions.

Don’t starve yourself or deprive your body of nutrients!

Do Some Cardio

To speed up the weight loss and improve your heart health in the process, add some cardio to your current workout routine. This can also speed up your metabolism so that your body naturally burns more calories during the day.

Just like dieting, you have to be careful that you’re doing cardio within moderation. Stick to between 30 and 60 minutes of cardio per day and be sure to give yourself several rest days during the week.

Swimming, biking, jumping rope, and jogging are all great ways to burn several hundred calories in a day.

A good amount of women these days crave a bigger butt. Most of that desire comes down to looking better in a tiny bathing suit and attracting men.

But the increase in size comes down to greater muscle mass, not fat!

Having a bigger butt does wonders for your body in terms of your physical fitness as well. Let’s take a look at why larger glutes might make you more fit.

  • Greater lower body power
  • Reduced strain on your joints
  • Better posture
  • Lower risk of back pain

2 Quick Big Booty Tips

Do Heavy Lower Body Exercises

You can technically get a bigger booty by gaining fat in your lower body, but you want to add some shape in the form of muscle.

To build muscle in the glutes, you need to lift heavy.

The best exercises for the glutes are squats, lunges, donkey kicks, glute bridges, and even those dreaded stair workouts. For squats, consider strapping on a weightlifting belt designed specifically for women (they exist!)

Focus on the 8 to 12 rep range and be sure to bump up the resistance if you’re easily hitting 12 reps per set without trouble.

Give yourself 2 to 3 days of rest in between.

Eat Protein

Just doing lower body exercises won’t be enough to add muscle to your glutes. You also need to make sure that you’re eating enough protein.

Protein will help you to maintain and even gain muscle mass.

For every pound that you weigh, you want to be eating at least 1 gram of protein. Your body also needs protein soon after a workout, so be sure to eat between 20 and 40 grams of your protein within an hour of leaving the gym.

Spot Reduction: Fact or Fiction?

There’s one key benefit of lifting weights: You can target where you build muscle. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for burning body fat.

This is a concept known as “spot reduction.”

That means that no matter how many sit-ups and crunches you do, you’re not guaranteed to lose body fat in your abdominal area. So if you were planning to do 1,000 repetitions for ab exercises every day to get a flat stomach, you might want to jump ship now.

The only way to lose fat, in general, is by creating a caloric deficit. That means your body needs to be burning more calories than you’re eating.

You can do this by eating fewer calories, doing cardio, or a combination of the two.

Know Your Limits

Getting the “perfect” body takes time, especially when it’s not too healthy to lose more than a few pounds per week. Your body also can’t handle going to the gym every single day.

The best way to set yourself back is by overdoing it.

Here’s what you need to know about knowing your limits.

  • Your body needs rest between tough workouts, usually about 2 to 3 days between workouts for each body part.
  • Cutting more than 500 calories per day or exercising too often might leave you feeling drained emotionally and physically.
  • Your body needs proteins, carbs, and protein, so adjust your intake of each instead of cutting one or more out completely.
  • Slow down if you notice that you’re becoming obsessed with having the perfect body, a flat stomach, or a big booty.

Keep in mind that a lot of your physique is completely out of your control. It’ll come down to your body type and muscle types.

How Do You Get A Flat Stomach and a Big Booty?

Getting a flat stomach and a big booty is possible, but expect this process to take time.

To flatten your stomach, cut 500 calories per day in the form of a diet, exercise, or both. It’s also a good idea to build your core muscles to have something worth showing!

When it comes to a bigger booty, you’ll want to focus on doing heavy leg exercises like squats, lunges, and box jumps. Be sure to load up on protein in your diet to guarantee muscle gains.
