Things You'll Need:
- Small dumbbells
-
Step 1
Do plenty of cardio exercises. Jog daily, run the treadmill or climb stairs for aerobic resistance, which tightens your abdominal muscles, thus reducing love handles. These exercises are great for increasing your metabolism, which will help you lose weight.
-
Step 2
Grab two small dumbbells. While standing, spread your feet shoulder width apart. Fold you arms while holding the dumbbells close to the body. Flex your hips and legs. This is to ensure that your legs remain still while bending sideways. Bend to the left from the waist only. Come back to the start position. Bend to the right.
-
Step 3
Lay flat on your back. Do the crunch exercise movement, but as you raise your upper torso off the ground, twist and touch the opposite knee, either with your elbow or hand. Do not push your neck with your arms because you can hurt it. Raise your upper body as the lower back remains on the floor.
-
Step 4
Stand with your feet separated by the width of one foot. Turn and twist your waist to the right while keeping your legs and knees still. Move you left arm toward your right as you twist.
-
Step 5
Slowly lift your head while lying on your stomach. Keep your arms to your side and keep them still. Lift your legs off the ground one at a time.
-
Step 6
Do conventional exercises, such as push-ups and crunches. For push-ups, lower you body to the ground, keeping your back as straight as possible. Align your elbows with your body and go as close to the ground as possible. Push yourself back up, never breaking form. Repeat. For crunches, lie on your back and situate your feet on the ground with knees raised. Lace your fingers behind your head, raise your head and try to touch you knees with your elbow. Touch your right elbow to your left knee and then alternate with your left elbow and right knee.
-
Step 7
Substitute junk food for wholesome snacks such as fruits and vegetables. Integrate as much fiber as possible into your diet. For example, eat whole grain oatmeal everyday for breakfast. Eat fish, chicken, top sirloin, pork tenderloin and pork chops for bigger meals. Add brown rice to these dishes as well. Avoid high fructose corn syrup. Eat nuts in moderation. Eat meals every three hours to keep your metabolism in gear. Drinking plenty of water stabilizes your body temperature, which encourages weight loss.
