Exercise For Love Handles - Will It Hurt Bad?

July 4th, 2009

Exercise for love handles, will it hurt me? Well that all rests on what & how you do it. But it doesn’t have to be.

Those nasty lumps of fat at your sides are what is termed as ‘love handles’. There’s nothing lovely about them so where the name comes from I don’t know.

The technical term for love handles is obliques, after the oblique muscles which sit at an angle at each side. The word oblique mean ‘at an angle’.

In the fitness & health industry the standard advice starts with - eat healthily, exercise moderately, balanced diet - and all the other rubbish they spout.

Yes people, we know all that but we want to know how to get rid of love handles without all that hard work. Is it possible?

Yes it’s possible. You can continue on your junk food diet and lose your love handles but you are in for a huge amount of work.

Your biggest problem is that while you exercise your love handles off, with hard time in the gym. Today’s junk food is travelling merrily to your waist.

If, and I say this carefully, you could reduce your intake of junk food you could also reduce the amount of exercise it takes to look great.

It’s a balancing act. Do you really want to rid yourself of your love handles? Enough to make a lifestyle change?

Or do you want to continue to fill your self with junk food and work much harder at the exercise routines. It’s your call.

Example exercises for love handles are side bends. If you eat like you do now you may need to do a couple hundred of these a day to  stay as you are. Or make the lifestyle change and only need to do fifty to get rid of the love handles.

As you will gather from the above, it’s a fine balancing act. Junk food = more exercise while healthy food = less exercise.

As a person, I’m lazy. I try to eat the best options, this way it keeps the exercise to a minimum. I still exercise for love handles but only to stop them appearing again.

In conclusion, you will get pain if you have to do loads of exercise for your love handles. If you can change you eating habits you can manage with far less exercise.

Do you have what it takes? You might benefit from the step by step weight loss system that I follow every day. Read a review of that & more on my site. Nothing to lose but love handles!
