Bellyfat: Our experience, belly fat & metabolic syndrome fat, the sit ups do not help 100 % to reduce that, correcting the underlying cause, plus exercise could reduce. Many cases we are helping with mesotherapy/liposolve, subcu, with melting fat like acetylcholine, and phosphat.... Choline.In others cases using velashape, changing habits, better nutrition is reducing faster that & adding exercise....

Spot fat loss does: not occur naturally. By losing weight in general some will probably be abdominal fat. But, we don't get to choose what area of body fat is lost from. Eat healthy & be physically active. Calories burned must > those consumed. Tighten ab's: crunches, reverse crunches, exercise ball crunches, pelvic thrusts, lying leg raises, side bridge & “bicycling” exercise on back. Do regular aerobic exercise.

Not necessarily: It is not feasible to target one particular area for fat loss through diet and exercise. It is more important to maintain a normal weight, have a healthy diet, exercise, avoid alcohol, tobacco and other drugs, and get vaccination.
