What excercises are best for losing belly fat, but not losing other fat?

Diet/exercise: It's the same answer for any weight loss problem. Diet and exercise not medication, supplements or other internet garbage. Target your exercise to the muscles under the fat to make it less evident. Your body will determine where it wants to burn up the fat from. It's 3500 calories to burn off to lose one pound, so diet restriction is essential as well.

None.: 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.
