Love Handle Exercises – Side Bends Aren’t The Answer
September 15, 2009 // Posted by: admin // Category: cheap plus size clothingThere’s an awful lot of stuff on the internet that will show you how to get fat off your love handles. The fact is most of it’s crap. Usually setup to try and sell you some expensive equipment or diet pills.
The usual suspect in the exercise for love handles category is the good old side bend. You hold a walking stick or broom above your head and bend from side to side. Simple! It would be nice if they actually worked.
The fact they won’t work is that targeting one particular area to lose weight from is nigh on impossible. You’ll always get the smart ass telling you they do work. They will work if you incorporate them with an all round system.
Doing side bends as part of an all round workout will definitely get you success. If your workout is also part of an all round system you could double your results. It’s a simple fact. Burn more energy than you consume to lose weight.
Consuming energy means eating it, usually food. To burn energy off you simply have to do something that is active. Exercise usually. Any form of activity will burn energy off. This is basically what exercise is.
This could be walking, swimming, running, weightlifting or even sex. The last one sounds good to me! Any exercise at all is better than no exercise at all. This is the reason people get fat. They eat calorie laden food and do little or no exercise.
You can exercise for your love handles all you want but if you ignore other areas you will simply get nowhere fast. If you are a naturally lazy person (like me) then swimming is probably your best all round exercise. If you have access to a pool, use it. The benefits are immense.
I hate jogging and see no benefit in killing your knees every day. You may need them in later life! You know the guy who made jogging famous collapsed and died while out jogging? Ironically discovered by two smokers walking past.
If you are serious about your shape then you need to get yourself an all round system to follow. Not some new fangled diet that won’t work but a system that will work long term and is gentle enough for you to keep at it.
