RE: Type of exercise to shrink the belly
extended stomach is "central obesity" which refers to
that organism is healthier compared to non-central obesity- (when people get face swelling and so on). what i've said was in terms of biochemistry not values of social life. and 1 more misconception is that people believe that making abs workout burns stomach fat, because that's lie. little course of biochemistry- there are couple of sites for adipose tissue. when sugar level in blood decreases glucagon increases which releases Triacylglycerols from adipose tissue. meaning that organism does not care which muscle burns sugar and causes decrement of its level. only thing that helps there is to run early morning, don't eat anything at all. don't even get 1 candy that will stop process of burning fat for 3-5 hours. thats why getting fat is easy than get rid of it.
You are right, of course. But no amount of biochemistry knowledge will get people healthy and to a healthy weight. We are what we eat and I have not EVER seen an unhealthy overweight person that eats 100% organic food, gets off his/her butt and simply moves instead of sitting all day. Everybody can grow a garden (exercise) and eat organic food to be healthy. There is no mystery about it!
i was just saying abs workout wont work on stomach fat directly and it's waste of time depended only on that. because abs workout actually burns way less fat then running.abdomen rectus muscle is way smaller than foot quadriceps.(actually foot has more than that.)
