about
My name's Jennifer, but I'm more commonly known as Jen or Sporkster. I love lots of things/people including God; volleyball and soccer, my two favorite sports; and cheese. I also love Pi, but that's a story for another day.
I've been answering questions on Advicenators for over three years now, so I'm pretty experienced with it. I love answering questions and helping you out anyway I can, so if you've got a question, just ask me!
Ask me about: Christianity, athletics, physical fitness, love-life, relationships, friendships, HTML queries, book suggestions, music suggestions, musical theory, history, English (or Spanish) grammar, Paint Shop Pro 8, skin problems, sports injuries, "punk" fashion, nutrition, etc.
advice
Q: Any idea how to get rid of a little unwanted body fat in the stomach? I've tried crunches and everything but no results. Anything would be helpful. NOT pills though.
A: Crunches and the like are GREAT for building and toning muscle, but they don't burn fat.
In order to burn fat, you have to get your body moving and your heart rate up. This can involve just plain running, playing soccer or basketball, swimming, jump-roping, etc.
If you start doing these activities for about thirty minutes a day for two or three weeks, you'll definitely see a difference in your body composition.
Drink lots of water, and watch what you eat! Instead of reaching for sugary snacks loaded with saturated fat, reach for an apple or some carrots.
Exercise, combined with a controlled, balanced diet, is the best way to go for weight loss.
Hope this helps!
(Rating: 5) The thing I should have told you is I don't want to loose weight just burn fat. I guess I used the wrong title. But thanks for the advice.
