Walking, especially at a brisk pace or with intervals and by following certain techniques, can help lose belly fat. Here’s how you do it.
Add short bursts of faster walking (1-2 minutes) into your routine. Alternating between brisk walking and slower walking increases calorie burn and targets belly fat.
If possible, walk uphill or take the stairs. This increases the intensity of your workout and activates your core and lower body muscles, boosting fat loss around your midsection.
While walking, practice deep belly breathing (diaphragmatic breathing). This can help engage your core and enhance fat-burning.
Adding light resistance while walking increases intensity and helps burn more calories.
Move your arms as you walk, keeping them bent at a 90-degree angle. This increases intensity and works your core more effectively.
