While walking<\/a> doesn\u2019t appear to be an intense workout, it could be your key to belly fat loss.<\/p>\n

\u201cWalking for just 30 minutes per day is all you need to reap the benefits of physical activity,\u201d Denise writes on her website<\/a>. \u201cIt can be as effective (if not more so) than jogging. While walking, you can burn fat, boost your metabolism, and\/or lose weight. Exactly how much you get out of it will depend on the intensity of your walks and what other healthy habits you\u2019re practicing during the rest of your time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Denise even has a workout program specifically dedicated to walking.<\/p>\n

If you want to increase the intensity of your walks to speed up the fat burn, consider performing bodyweight exercises, wearing a rucksack or ankle weights, switching up the terrain, and including inclines.<\/p>\n

Certain workouts specifically fire up your abdominal region and address stubborn belly fat.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn general, belly fat wraps around your organs like the liver and belly, and is called visceral fat<\/a> (as opposed to subcutaneous fat, which is closer to your skin),\u201d Denise explains. \u201cTo tackle this visceral fat, you need to add some targeted moves to your workouts. You will want to add core moves that both elongate and constrict the abdominal muscles.\u201d<\/p>\n

Denise suggests giving her 6-Minute Amazing Abs Pilates Workout and 10-Minute Belly Blasting Workout a shot. Once you progress, check out Denise\u2019s Shape, Strengthen and Sculpt Kit, which features many targeted exercises for the belly, upper, and lower body.<\/p>\n
