A 20-Minute Workout To Lose Stomach Fat

If you’re looking to change the shape of your body or trying to lose belly fat without joining a high priced gym, then try this fitness routine. With this 20 minute exercise routine you can burn up to 150 calories daily.


The first four minutes of this fat burning routine is: Jump Rope - Begin by performing two jumps for each turn of the rope:- Use the correct size jump rope and always land softly on the balls of your feet. Keep thinking I am losing belly fat.


Minutes four to seven: Squat Thrust into a Push Up - The proper technique for this exercise is to stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms strait down next to your sides. Slowly squat down with your head forward and bring your hands to the floor just outside of your feet. Your hands should be pointing forward as well. Then in one movement, push your legs back and out behind you (into a push up position). Perform one strict push up and then jump back into your squat position and then stand back up. Keep thinking, the belly-fat is vanishing.


Minutes seven to ten: Jump Rope with only one jump per turn - Keep thinking, The fat is melting away.


Minutes ten to thirteen: Back to the Squat Thrust and Push Up only this time you are going to add the Side Plank - After completing your squat thrust and push up, you are going to lift and rotate your left arm off of the ground and over your head. Your left foot will rotate and rest on top of you right foot. And you will rotate your neck so you are looking up at your ceiling. Rotate back to the center and repeat on the other side. When finished, hop back into your squat position, stand up and start again. Keep thinking, no more belly fat.


Minutes thirteen to fifteen: Jump Rope - Same as minutes seven to ten, keep thinking, I am losing belly fat.


Minutes fifteen to seventeen: Back to the Squat Thrust and Push Up only this time you are going to add the Leg Lift - This is the same as minutes four to seven only this time you will lift the toes of one foot about twelve inches off of the ground only after you have performed your push up. Lower your foot and repeat on the other side. Hop back up to your squat position, stand up, and start again. Keep thinking, goodbye jelly-belly.


Minutes seventeen and eighteen: Jump Rope - Same as minutes seven to ten. Keep thinking, my belly is getting smaller.


Minutes eighteen and nineteen: Back to the Squat Thrust and Push Up only this time you are going to add Mountain Climbers - Repeat everything as in minutes four to seven only this time after your push up, you will quickly jog in place from your push up position. Make sure you bring your knees up to your chest on each rotation. Perform 5 jogs and repeat this entire process. Keep thinking, I am going to lose weight.


Minutes nineteen and twenty: Jump Rope - Same as your first four minutes. Keep thinking. If I do this every day, I will lose belly fat.
