3 Exercises To Lose Stomach Fat

by Ed Scow (aka The Fit Dad) - Certified Fitness Professional and Fat Loss Expert for Busy Moms and Dads

A few weeks ago I had a consultation with a potential new client.

He called because he was completely fed up with his weight, especially the amount of stomach fat he had accumulated over the past few months.

I agreed to meet with him because he really sounded like he wanted to work and wanted to get rid of his beer belly.

What I learned was that Dan was pretty much like every other male client I had met with over the past few months.

He was a dad.

He had a very stressful job.

He had no time to devote to workouts.

He was a stress eater and liked to drink beer.

He was totally confused about what exercises work and don’t work to lose stomach fat.

He wanted to get rid of his beer belly and he wanted it done NOW.

I asked him what types of things he’d been doing up until our meeting and he gave a pretty standard response.

“I workout when I can, but I really don’t have much time” he said.

He continued, “I want to spend as much time as I can with my family, but my job keeps me from them too much and I don’t want to head to the gym which will take away more family time.”

“When I do workout I usually spend a lot of time on the treadmill and then I hit the floor and do crunches, sit-ups, or maybe some crunch machines and sometimes I do an Abs class at the gym.”

I loved hearing this because I knew that he would love what I was going to tell him and the results he would get would be phenomenal.

I told him to quit the gym because it was wasting his money anyway.

I told him to buy some dumbbells, a bench and stability ball.

I designed a home workout program for him that would obliterate his stomach fat while only working out 10 minutes a day.

But on top of that, I told him to stop worrying about doing crunches and instead add these abs exercises to every single workout he did:

1) Stability Ball Jack Knife
2) Plank (or some variation of the Plank)
3) Burpees

He wasn’t very excited at first, but I told him to trust me and get back to me in a few weeks to let me know how things were going.

He gave me a tentative nod and went on his way.

3 weeks later he called me and couldn’t believe the results he was already having.

He’d done the 10-minute workouts as I told him, plus was adding those 3 exercises to every workout and had already lost an inch off his waist and had more energy than he had in years.

Not bad for 3 weeks!
