Reducing body fat requires a calorie restricted diet mixed in with exercise to build muscle.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
Step1
There is no way to pick what part of your body you want the fat to come off of. Whether you have excess body fat in your midsection, thighs or arms, the procedure is exactly the same.
Step2
Eating foods that have fat in them will not necessarily make you gain body fat. The only thing that will make you gain excess body fat is excess calories. Carbohydrates and protein can make you gain just as much weight.
Step3
The only way to lose body fat is a combination of reducing calorie intake through your diet and burning calories with exercise.
Step4
The best exercise to do for reducing body fat percentage isn't sit ups, crunches or curls. The best exercise is something that will burn a lot of calories such as running, biking, swimming and most team sports.
Step5
Muscle tissue burns more calories than fat tissue does. You should include a good strength training routine in your workout to build more muscle that will help you burn even more calories throughout the day.
Step6
You can get more help by reading and posting to the diet and exercise forums that are linked below.
