The best workout routine starts in the kitchen. Weight loss is 80% what you eat and 20% of what you do. Knowing this, the best idea is to take in less than you burn, and if belly fat loss is your goal, just know that you can’t truly isolate where fat is lost from. With that said, crunches and other abdomen workouts definitely won’t hurt your cause.

However, the best option to lose any weight from around your midsection is to participate in HIIT workout—HIIT is short for high intensity interval training. This is a type of workout that requires short amounts of effort, but that effort is 100%. After the high-intensity part, a short, active recovery period happens, and then the workout goes back to the high-intensity. This alternation is the ‘interval’ part of HIIT.

The best workout routine for shedding belly fat is to combine cardio with core strength exercise. A cardio exercise will start to melt the fat away. Good cardio exercises for beginners are walking/running, biking, or hiking. Start off slow and work up to a pace where you are breathing hard but still feel good.

Push yourself to go faster or harder when it becomes too easy. Then add core strength exercises that work out your lower abdominal muscles.
