How to lose belly fat has for ever been a source of worry and concern to men and women endowed with massive pot belly. Spotting a pot belly makes you look ugly and unattractive to the opposite sex whatever you might do the impress. With your abdominal fat, you will cut the picture of a pregnant woman. You will find it difficult to wear the dresses you desire; rather you will be consigned to wearing ill fitting clothes to cover up your abdominal fat. Losing belly fat is however not impossible if you are ready to apply the principle of compound effect to eliminate it.
What is Compound Effect?
Compound Effect is the principle of reaping huge rewards from a series of small smart choices. Arising from these is a final result which is often massive such that the steps taken to achieve it really do not seem significant.
Small smart choices +consistency + time = Radical Difference (Changes).
The power of the principle of compound effect lies in its simplicity. If the small smart choices are applied consistently, over time some radical differences will be observed in the individual applying them. However the most challenging part of the principle is that we must keep working away consistently for a while before we see our efforts paying off. If not there will be no change.
Weight Loss and the Principle of Compound Effect.
Studies have revealed that working only on losing abdominal fat usually do not achieve the desired result. It has therefore been recommended that one should make efforts at engaging in overall body weight loss which will consequently lead to belly fat loss and weight loss in other parts of the body. Further, studies have revealed that consuming the right diet more than exercises bring about general body weight loss. It is therefore for this reason that we shall use diet and nutrition for the purpose of our discussion.
Jack and Fred were childhood friends who are presently in their mid forties. When they were twenty years, they both set a goal to be healthy and in the right shape by the time they reach their mid forties. At that time they were both overweight, weighing around 150 kilograms each. To achieve their goal of weighing just 70 kilograms by the time they reach their mid forties, they took to eating the right diets and working out thereby losing around 30 calories per day. While Jack followed this routine religiously, Fred did for a few years and stopped. Now that they are both in their mid forties, Jack is just about the 70 kilograms in weight which he wanted to be. Fred on the other hand is overweight pot bellied and about 160 kilograms in weight.
You see, using the principle of compound effect, Jack made small choices of losing a minimum of 30 calories daily consistently over the past 25 years and that is the result we are seeing today in his lean and healthy outlook of 70 kilograms. He has used the principle of compound effect to achieve the radical difference (change) which is the right shape he has always desired. To be in the right shape, Jack lived through taking the right diets plus thousand of hours of workouts and exercises. He lived through sheer agony and sometimes frustrations and disappointments to become the lean man that he has become.
You should note that your path to success in your quest to lose belly fat is best through a continuum of mundane and sometimes difficult daily disciplines in the form of dieting and workouts. Once you do these consistently, overtime you will achieve your goal of weight loss and consequently losing belly fat if that is your dream. You can therefore see how the principle of compound effect can be effectively used to lose belly fat.

Three Best Exercises You Can Use to Eliminate Belly Fat
Rather than the typical belly fat exercise routines that we so often see like crunches, sit-ups, leg lifts etc, fitness experts have often recommended better options in metabolism-boosting high intensity workouts that works on the entire body while also working the belly. This write up is therefore all about the three best belly fat exercises that are really not direct abs exercises but works greatly on your abs.
These three exercises as recommended by a respected fitness expert are in a tri-set format (similar to a super-set but alternating between 3 exercises). They are not direct belly fat exercises but work great on abs too. They are as listed below:
1. Renegade Dumbbell Rows.
2. Front Squats with Barbell.
3. Mountain Climbers on Floor.
Renegade Dumbbell Rows: You start doing the renegade dumbbell rows by putting yourself in a push up position with your hands on two dumbbells. You will then lift one dumbbell up while stabilizing your entire body with the other arm. You will then bring the dumbbell down and lift the other arm with the other dumbbell. You will then alternate in lifting one arm with the dumbbell and stabilizing your body with the other arm. The stabilizing effect during the rows creates incredible work for your entire midsection core area. Really, you will feel the effect in your abs.
Front Squats with Barbell: Front squats are done in a similar manner to back squats. The difference however being that the barbell will be in front of your body on the front of your shoulders instead of resting on the upper back as in back squats. You will place the barbell on your shoulders by crossing your arms and pushing your fists into the bar against your shoulders while at the same time keeping your elbows out in front of the body. This will take a little practice at first, so you might have to seek the assistance of a professional trainer at your gym to help you with the form. Front squats require extreme stabilization strength from the abs due to the barbell weight being shifted to the front of the body instead of the back. Even though this is mostly a leg exercise, you'll feel the effect in the abs too!
Mountain Climbers on Floor: These are done by starting in a pushup position and then alternating between shuffling your feet in and out so that your knees are moving in under your chest and then back out to starting position. It resembles climbing a mountain while being flat on the floor. This really makes it a full body exercise and MUCH more difficult than standard mountain climbers.
It is at the same time great in toning the abs.
After finishing each exercise, rest for about 30 seconds before starting the next exercise. Endeavor to alternate between the exercises. Try to rest for about 1-2 minutes after completing each "tri-set" of exercise before repeating.
Belief me this will give you one of the best belly fat workouts you've ever had without even doing any direct pot belly exercises. I have tried it and found them it very useful. You too will see what I mean after you try it!
