Love Handle Exercises – Side Bends Really Won’t Work
Posted by: HealthyGirl / Category: Weight Loss
There’s an awful lot of stuff on the internet that will show you how to get fat off your love handles. Sadly most of it’s just fluff & rubbish. Designed to sell you some crap diet or some pills.
The usual suspect in the exercise for love handles category is the good old side bend. You hold a walking stick or broom above your head and bend from side to side. Simple! Of course, they rarely work.
The fact they won’t work is that targeting one particular area to lose weight from is nigh on impossible. Lots of people and websites will tell you otherwise though. They do work, but only if you do them with a whole all round system and not just “spot” training.
Doing side bends as part of an all round workout will definitely get you success. If you have a healthy diet as well as a good workout system you will see far better results. It’s a well known (but ignored) fact that to lose weight you simply need to consume less energy than you burn off.
Consuming energy means eating it, usually food. Burning energy means using it internally like a fuel, usually done by exercise. Exercise can be any form of activity that burns calories.
Any of these will do … Swimming, jogging, cycling, walking, and making love even! Any form of exercise is better than no form of exercise. This is the reason people get fat. They eat calorie laden food and do little or no exercise.
You can exercise for your love handles all you want but if you ignore other areas you will simply get nowhere fast. I’m a naturally lazy person so I tend to go swimming a lot. It’s a great non impact all round exercise. If you can get to a swimming pool you should. It’s gentle and has great benefits for you.
I hate jogging and see no benefit in killing your knees every day. You may need them in later life! The guy who popularised jogging actually died while out jogging in a park somewhere. Ironically discovered by two smokers walking past.
If you are serious about your shape then you need to get yourself an all round system to follow. Not a fancy new “diet” which won’t work, but a solid system that has been proven to work and is gentle enough not to put you off. I’ve reviewed the (probably) best five methods out there at this website…
Can’t lose weight? Yes you can!
