60 sec secret to a flat belly

  • 4 things that are killing your cardio workout
Quick Q of the week: My fitness goal for this year is to get a flat stomach. How much cardio do you recommend I do to get rid of the belly fat?

 

Wellness expert and CEO of girlsgonesporty.com Laura Williams says, “Teens should aim for 60 minutes of activity a day, but try to make at least 30 minutes of that cardio - dancing, walking, jogging, etc. Then, make sure you're eating healthy foods, like fruits and veggies.”

 

Make it happen! Need a li’l inspiration? “A great way to stick to healthy habits is to schedule them into your weekly planner every single week, then make sure you're treating them like any other appointment,” Laura says. “One thing I did when I was in high school was post sticky notes around my room with motivational sayings. They were always front-and-center so I couldn't ignore them and I was more likely to follow through.”

mod help! i wanna buy some new clothes, but i have no money to do it! i can earn $10 once-in-a-blue-moon, but that wouldnt be enough for about $150 worth of clothes. i rly need help. i am 13, and i cannot babysit or walk dogs. i also cant do yard work for neighbors. plz help... and it has to be something i can do now. thanks!! Smile

 

Hey SecretCupcakeNinjaCalledTurtle, you could have a yard sale, sell old clothing to a thrift store, put old electronic or house stuff for sale on Ebay or Amazon, sell candy, school supplies, and drinks at school or begin making jewelery. Hope at least one of these help! Xoxo

MOD MOD MOD,
3 questions
I am a volleyball player and wanted to know some workouts to keep me in shape since i am playing right now
I exercise and play sports year round but my belly is still fat and it makes me self conscious. what do i do to get rid of the belly fat?
i have always wanted to dance but my town doesn't have any classes. How can i pursue my dream?

 

Hey girl, I'm a volleyball player too! What keeps me in shape is working out and eating healthy. No more mcdonalds or greasy foods for me. I've even cut soda and coffee completely out of my diet. After your workouts/practices, be sure to get lots of protein (meats, eggs, etc), that helps the muscle repair correctly. Playing organized sports is definitely the best way to stay in shape. I'd just say keep it up! You're doing great!
