Love handle exercise

The fat stored around your love handle can be lost by proper diet and exercise. Diet has nothing to do with the latest diet fad. This has everything to do with the nutritional value of the food you eat. Your body is a high performance machine. It needs protein, carbohydrates, fiber, and vitamins and minerals to function properly. A lean healthy diet will allow your body to metabolize its fate store more efficiently

The best way to get rid of unwanted fat is by burning more calories than you consume. Aerobic exercise helps burn the fat directly and, over the course of time fat levels will reduce around the love handles as well as many other areas. If you want to get rid of belly fat then get up off the couch and go for a walk, take a bike ride, or play some hoops. Find something you like to do and keep doing it.

The best exercise to help tone the love handles is side bends. These place direct stress on the external oblique muscles forcing them to tone and shape up. Side bends are done by standing straight with knees slightly bent and feet apart, then slowly lower the trunk a few inches to the left side then back again to do the right side. Try to keep the body and legs in line by not bending forwards or backwards.

Some more love handle exercises are Leg Flutters, Twist Crunches, and Standing Trunk Twists. All of these exercises should ONLY be attempted with supervision from a qualified fitness instructor!
