Subject: Legit spot reduction of stomach fat?
Believe me, I was VERY skeptical of this...until I read through it and saw the scientific rationale for it.
And honestly, I'm still kind of skeptical but I think it definitely has potential. He could be onto something and it's a method I'm going to do some experimenting with myself.
I love this kind of "biohacking"...taking scientific research and using the principles that are proven by it to achieve very specific body transformation goals.
Spot reduction of stomach fat..can it be for real?
It's about something approximating "spot reduction" of abdominal fat...yep, the Holy Grail of fat loss. Losing fat from the area of your body that is basically the TOUGHEST and most STUBBORN to get at.
The reason I put spot reduction in quotes is that the focus of this approach is NOT true spot reduction in the sense that you're only burning fat from that area.
That is impossible...the body doesn't work that way and the creator of this approach fully acknowledges that.
The idea with THIS approach is to use very targeted training to increase the percentage of the fat that you're burning (while on an overall fat-loss program) to come more from abdominal fat.
This overall approach uses fundamentally sound fat-loss principles, like getting into a caloric deficit, using metabolic conditioning training, etc. to lose overall bodyfat.
Then you use very specific, very targeted abdominal and total-body training to "upregulate" the release of fat from the abdominal area.
As you use this method over the course of time, it could mean the difference between burning ONE of inch of fat around your waist or TWO inches of fat around your waist.
It's allowing you to get at that fat more effectively and more quickly than a general, overall fat-loss approach.
And I'll be straight up with you...the website for the program is a bit hypey. The whole concept of spot reduction, because of the entrenched notions of it being impossible, make almost everything to do with it sound hypey.
I would encourage you to look past that to see what the end result of the approach really is...
...burning more fat from your stomach.
I'll be back tomorrow with a more detailed look at the mechanism of action...along with the studies that back it up.
It's interesting stuff.
