What I call the one arm reach others call the renegade row. Position yourself in a push-up position with your hands on a set of dumbbells. From that position stretch out one arm toward the ceiling reaching as far as possible. Once yo come back to your original position you can continue this repetition with the same arm or alternate with each side. What happens as you will notice is that your core muscle tighten up to keep your balance. Works great.
The Plank exercise. Again get in your push-up position only this time rest on your forearms. Raise yourself up and hold it as long as you can resting on your toes and forearms. Repeat ten times and you will feel it in your gut so you will know it is working. Tough to hold more than two minutes at a time.
The single leg squat. I started this one when I had knee replacement surgery and needed to improve my balance. Stand on one leg and raise the other. I kept my raised leg bent but many raise it out as straight as they can. Next do a standard squat but on the one leg. Again you will feel it hit home. Ten reps on each leg. Great for the core muscles and the leg muscles.
There are many other great exercises you can do to lose belly fat but these three will definitely help you reach your goal and bust your belly flab.
