    Today I’m going to share six effective exercises that get rid of love handles or a muffin top.
    Love handles result from fat accumulation in the liver that spills off in and around the organs in your mid-section.
    The primary cause of love handles is a diet that’s high in sugar and refined carbs. Sugar and refined carbs cause high insulin, which causes stored fat. But, stress and a lack of sleep also cause high insulin and lead to love handles.
    To get rid of love handles, you need to get on a Healthy Keto diet, do intermittent fasting, lower your stress, improve your sleep, and start exercising. The exercises I’m going to share with you are intense and will focus on your core to get rid of love handles.
    Exercises to get rid of love handles fast:
    1. Side planks
    2. Bicycle crunches
    3. Russian twists
    4. Mountain climbers
    5. Woodchoppers
    6. Bulgarian bag

    I really needed this video, thank you so much; it’s just time for me to get back at it. It’s really been a difficult two years with everything that is going on in the country. I have put on 30 pounds since the lock down of the country and have started back with keto and intermittent fasting; I have really missed how my body felt when I took on improving my quality of health. In 2018 when I initially started the ketogenic diet I learned so much from you and about my body. I sheared off 80 pounds off of my frame learning how to improve my quality of health but this time there are just a few things that I will improve on as I go through this process. Two things I will improve on is eating much more healthy fats and add a little exercise because I didn’t do these two things as much but I have learned what my body needs as all people are different when they lose weight. So all I want to say moving forward is thank you so much for what you do; you have taught me so much as I have been willing to learn. I will be looking forward to watching more videos and continue to learn.
    Thank you Dr. Berg.

    I've been a personal fitness coach and a big proponent for exercising with a view to strengthening both front and back of a muscle group. For example, it's all well and good to strengthen your abs, but do not neglect your lower back and glutes. When you strengthen your lower back (make sure you aren't going too heavy with the weights and control weight with slow control moves...good mornings are good glute and lower back exercises.

Over the last couple days I've really noticed that my "love handles" are much smaller, and thought it was odd that I noticed lose in that area first. Then today you drop a video on how to lose your "love handles" 🤔 I should mention that I haven't even started working out yet I've only started healthy keto.

    Another great topic Dr Berg! With bicycle crutches, you can also cross arms in front of your chest to minimize neck pull and touch your elbows to the opposing knee. If you genetically have a wide waist or thick obliques, NO extra weight should be used. Russian twists are also amazing. You can actually create a cardio based exercise by doing this for extended minutes and is great for burning the love handle "fat" on top of the obliques. The mountain climber is awesome because it helps burn fat all in your core and all over which helps streamline your waist. Woodchoppers are great because of the angle of stretching and engaging the abdominal, lower serratus, and obliques. Higher repetitions and/or extended minutes promotes a total core and upper body workout with fat burning effects especially when done with moderate to minimal weight. These are great options that people can perform right at home! 👍

When higher repetitions are performed you get a resistance training effect where you sculpt and stimulate MUSCLE and also burn body fat overall.

      At the end of the day, no matter how many exercises you do, you won’t lose those love handles.
      You need to know that it’s really all about how many calories go in vs how many go out. Doing ab exercises won’t get rid of fat in a specific area.
      Fat is distributed all throughout the body and you can’t choose where there’s less of it. What you can do is lower the amount of fat on your body as a whole. This will get rid of the love handles.
      So again the only way to get rid of this is proper dieting and making sure you’re not eating more than you need to. But also don’t starve yourself. Having a healthy lifestyle is the only way to get rid of the love handles.

    Really, you can do any exercise that utilizes the whole body as long as it gets the pulse rate. Side planks, while useful in strenghthing your core which has a lot of benefits, won't burn any fat on your love handles a quite frankly neither will Russian twsits. Again, they're great workouts with useful applications, just not for fat burning.

    When I did exercises for my love handles, they actually got bigger because the muscles underneath them got bigger. Even when my weight went down to 106 (I am 5'5" tall), I was skin and bone, but STILL had my love handles. So obviously, body shape is sometimes just genetic.

    • @michaelandersen5821
      @michaelandersen5821 Před rokem

      Depositions of fat (where to first) can for sure be a bit of genetics, but it is also quite normal to have some fat on your side / stomach.
      The variation is mostly when it comes to male vs female, and how we have different base Metabolism.
      (Besides the fact that extra insulation for women is beneficial for extra padding / protecting on the core organs).
      When you are quite a short person weight increase in the kilogram range can be quite extensive (looks), but from your measurements you are in the normal range and should be happy 😁 that is a good and healthy weight.
      Remember the body needs a certain amount of fat too to make our body function!
