If you have an exercise bike, elliptical or treadmill at home, you are in luck and you can easily do a fat-burning workout at home. But what if there are no such simulators? Running in place and jumping rope are fun, but only for 5-10 minutes.

Fat on the sides (especially at the waist) often grows due to a sedentary lifestyle and when eating excessive amounts of refined carbohydrates. That is why you can remove the sides only by doing exercises and observing proper nutrition.

The bench press from the chest, lying on a straight line or on an inclined bench, is one of the five basic exercises, that is, strength exercises that are most effective for the complex development of the entire muscles of the body. The main working muscles when doing the bench press are the pectoral muscles, the secondary ones are the muscles of the shoulder girdle, triceps and, in part, the top of the press.

The bent over row is one of the five basic bodybuilding exercises for gaining muscle mass. When performed correctly, the work involves the latissimus dorsi, the middle and lower part of the trapezius muscles, as well as the posterior deltoids.

Most people are sure that the slowdown in metabolic processes begins already from the age of 20 – as a result of which the body more actively stores excess weight on the stomach and sides. Additionally, it is often believed that men have faster metabolisms than women (especially after menopause).

the question of how to eat less is tantamount to the question of how to eat fewer calories – and thus affect the maintenance of a stable weight or weight loss. Clearly, eating more frequently (as well as larger portion sizes) is associated with weight gain.

It is a well-known fact that testosterone is a male sex hormone, and estrogens (estrone, estriol and estradiol) are female. However, the body of men also produces a small amount of estradiol, which is involved in metabolic processes – and in reproductive function.

Statistics indicate that there is a relationship between a person’s waist circumference and the presence of visceral fat stores inside their abdomen. At increased risk are women with a waist circumference of more than 88 cm – as well as men with a waist of more than 102 cm.
