What would you suggest to help me lose belly fat through weight training?

Can't!: You can tome up and strengthen core muscles of your torso, but you cannot selectively lose weight from only one area of the body. Cut your carb intake if you have an "apple" build, because there are basic metabolic differences, such that apples preferentially add weight to their torsos.

Aerobics are needed.: Weight training builds muscle, and cardiovascular exercise burns fat.
