Does stretching help to get rid of your belly pooch?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No...: Belly fat will only go away with caloric restriction and/or enough exercise to create a energy deficit (calories burned > calories consumed) over a prolonged and consistent period of time. Stretching is important for healthy muscles but will not lead to any reduction in belly fat. Good luck!
