Before we get into how you can remove your muffin top, it\u2019s crucial to first shed light on three things that people do that do not work in eliminating muffin tops. These are:<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Spot Reduction.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">One unproductive activity we engage in to remove muffin tops is Spot Reduction. They do not work. Why? Well, as stated earlier, the body collects fat from all over your body and not from one place. Hence, it\u2019s essential to burn fat all over your body and not just burn it in one spot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We\u2019ve all tried spot reduction at one point or the other when it comes to tone up our favorite part of the body. While, we spend the better part of the afternoon performing different types of crunches, all hoping to get bikini-bod ready. Again, this will not work.<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Restrictive Diets<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">True, your diet plays a vital role in your muffin top increasing or decreasing, but that doesn\u2019t mean you should engage in any form of restrictive diet to lose it. The truth is, yes, you will lose weight if you engage in a restrictive diet. However, once you\u2019ve reached your goal weight and end the diet, you will gain that lost weight back twice as fast.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Please note that a restrictive diet can drive your body into starvation status, making reducing or losing the muffin top even more of an arduous task.<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Do Not Focus On The \u201cMuffin Top\u201d<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This is for the sake of your mental health. Focus instead on engaging your mind and body in productive activities. Do not invest so much effort and impatiently wait to see the \u201cmuffin top\u201d melt, which doesn\u2019t occur as fast as you might expect. This leads to frustration and could be pushed to give up altogether.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>","typography_typography":"custom","typography_font_family":"Nanum Myeongjo","typography_font_size":{"unit":"px","size":19,"sizes":[]},"typography_font_weight":"600"},"elements":[],"widgetType":"text-editor"}],"isInner":false}],"isInner":false},{"id":"0633e21","elType":"section","settings":[],"elements":[{"id":"a181fdd","elType":"column","settings":{"_column_size":100,"_inline_size":null},"elements":[{"id":"4166b7c","elType":"widget","settings":{"editor":"<h5><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Important Point - Can You Lose Your Muffin Top?<\/span><\/strong><\/h5><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yes, definitely\u2014 but hard work and patience are the golden rules. \u201cIt is possible to lose the muffin top,\u201d As the experts say. \u201cit is not an overnight fix.\u201d It isn\u2019t advisable to spot-reduce fat from targeted problem areas.
