So, I have some stomach fat, but not too much...I can see the lining of my abs, but I just need to get rid of my stomach fat. And now I'm trying to find ways of getting rid of that fat. So far I have: Basketball everyday Jogging 3 miles everyday Jump-roping The problem with each one is that: Basketball- I get bored of it easily and I suck (I can't make shots and when I feel like I've been playing for like 40 mins, its only been like 15...With my music on...LOUD!) Jogging 3 miles everyday- I have a not-too-good stamina, so I don't even know if I can even go past a mile...(I can last longer in football games cuz I usually play wide receiver and you aren't running constantly; you get that little break time in between plays to get back to the scrimmage line) Jump-roping- I don't really know how long I should do this everyday, my legs get tired pretty badly afterward, and after like 10 minutes, I'm tired Also, for any of these exercises, I was wondering if I could do them, then take a little break, and then go back to it, so that I'm not overwhelmed... So what should I do to get rid of my stomach fat and tone it down?

Why do you want to get smaller as a football player? I thought they always wanted to be bigger, but I don't know anything about football.

Try jogging a mile and see how it goes for a start, I guess. I'm no health expert, but I know that you have to build up to the 3 mile point if that's your realistic goal.

Proper diet plays a key ; abdominal visibility has to with body fat, like you seem to know here, and eating well can reduce bodyfat. I really don't recommend the food pyramid though. Please don't go down that road. Do some research on how awful the food pyramid is.

Running is a good way to burn fat. I would recommend building up to 3 miles though. Start off with a mile and if you need to take a break, just keep moving. Dont stop, instead just walk fast and once you catch your breath, pick back up to a jog. You can do this everyday and work yourself up to 3 miles. Edit: Oh another idea. Muscle burns fat the fastest. Maybe a few extra reps with some weights would go a long way.

You could just do sit-ups every night. Its what I do. Start low and work your way up. I do 4 sets of 60 atm (not much, but it makes a difference, trust me). Just gotta stick to it, even like a week without doing it can make you lose everything you worked on.

[quote] CheeseDude17 : What kind of foods would you recommend to eat/not eat? [/quote] My current diet, which is suited for weight gain looks something like this (I eat this MWF, other days are slightly lower) : Breakfast - 5 eggs, 3 yolks with all 5 whites. 2 cups of full fat milk Berries Lunch - Meat, Green Beans, Fruit, Almonds Snack - Tuna, Banana, Almonds Dinner - Meat, Vegetables, Fruit, 2 cups of full fat milk During Workout - 1 piece of fruit, any kind Post Workout - 1 cup of oats, 2 cups of full fat milk, protein powder, maybe a banana. Before Bed - Beef, vegetables if I feel like it. My diet consists of meat, fruit, nuts, vegetables, eggs, milk (which I'd take out if I was trying to lose weight), a little bit of oats, and any type of olive oil or coconut oil that is not heavily processed.

I thought since I have some stomach fat, I shouldn't be doing sit-ups...And not doing anything for a week can really make you lose everything? Like EVERYTHING? 0.0
