  • “You don’t even have any belly fat!”
    I got that comment on a post I had with tips to help clients lose that oh so stubborn belly fat.
    My reply back…
    “You’re right. I don’t!
    I have the ab definition I want BECAUSE I followed these tips.
    I was surprised by that comment on the post about how to get rid of belly fat because I’m legitimately proof that those tips work!
    They’re how I got the ab definition I wanted myself!
    Because I know how frustrating it can be to see everywhere else lose fat but that stubborn belly fat not shift no matter what you seem to do
    I wanted to share How to ACTUALLY Lose Stubborn Belly Fat
    These are tips that have helped my clients see results no matter their age

    The amount of free advice you provide is… I don’t know. It’s just very nice of you to do that. I’m on a fixed income and to be granted access to this kind of information from someone who clearly has figured it out is just…. Nice.
    Thank you

    Yes Cori, I believe you are the real deal and know how from education, professional work, and life experience in your own body re-composition and physical training for fitness, and muscularity/strength. Thank you for what you do. I am on a weight plateau and am going to get un-stuck - I have been 16 lbs. away from the goal weight for 7 months with 2+ up down pounds in that time over and over in spite of usually exercising 20-60 min. 6 days weekly and 2-3 days working out with light dumbbells weekly (still have shoulder impingement syndrome off and on on the shoulder I tore the rotator cuff 3 years ago so am very conservative). Oh and my protein is now approaching 100 gr. daily so up and up for that - hooray! I am not hard on myself as I approach age 70!

    Thanks for this video.I am wondering if this video applies more toward body building or straight up fat loss rather than general athletic performance. I am an aspiring triathlete (swimming is NOT where I want it to be yet!) and I’m worried that mini cuts might be more harmful than helpful to my training. What do you think?

    Hey, I have a question, been following you for a bit. I am in my early 40's and been on my fitness journey 3 yrs now. Two of those years spent at the gym. I weigh around the same (which I am okay with) I am slim but my achilles heel is my tummy area, I always say if get my abs it will be the icing on my cake. But my tummy fat never shifted with restricted dieting, lifting, my diet could be improved for sure. I recently went to do a check and got an endometriosis diagnosis which have me eternally bloated. Do you think despite this condition I can reduce my waistline, chances are yes I may not have a 6pack like you but any thoughts. Appreciate your content.

    I struggle with this one the most. I have been an avid exerciser/lifter for 20+ years (I am 46). I follow all of these tips, including cycling the macros etc., and while there is a bit of definition I can't seem to reach my desired result. I follow macro hacks and use your fitness app for workouts. I love them both, and my strength/definition has increased exponentially - everywhere, but my abs. I continue to put in the work, but find it extremely frustrating.

    I started eating pretty healthy for about 2-3 months and cut out most sugar for 2 months. I finally lost most of my belly fat, but my chest deflated a lot. I have always had a larger chest, even at lower weights. I guess aging has made it more difficult for a better fat distribution. How do gain a more feminine figure again without putting on abdominal fat? Thanks!

    I know your channel is more of information to compliment people's exercise plans but for someone who doesn't know where to start on what exercises to do, when to do them and how often... How do you figure that out for yourself?? What would you tell someone that's just starting to exercise to start with as far as planning an exercise schedule. I have an active physical job but am 5'4" and 200 pounds. I need to get stronger. Where does someone like me begin to sort this out?? Please?????

    • @thetimeisninefifteen
      @thetimeisninefifteen 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      You would do well to define your goals first; are you trying to lose fat or gain muscle? If you're trying to gain muscle, which muscle groups?
      Then from there, determine your level of expertise. Are you a beginner? Then you're best helped by full body resistance workouts 2 to 3 times a week, 45 - 60 minutes max. Focus on the major muscle groups and compound exercises that work multiple joints (squats, bench press, row, and deadlift will do a lot of good here). That will get your habits in check and make progress toward your goals. Beginners do not need to spend that much time in the gym, as you may burn out if you overextend and stop going all together.
      Are you intermediate (2 - 5 years in the gym)? Then you may do well with a training split, moving away from full body training. Pull/push/legs is a great split, though there are others.
      I hope this helps.

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +18

      I have a ton of videos for those first starting out :-) How you determine what is right is based on what you've previously done, your goals, aches and pains and even what your REALISTIC schedule is. I have people starting out who do 5 minutes, 5 days a week to build up. And those that do 3 days a week 30 minutes. Part of it is about getting in the routine. And honestly, following a plan designed for you to start is key so you can see how everything works together and not do too much. Here are some tips as well. And for you, if you are doing anything, even just going for a walk 3 times a week could help you get in a groove as you adjust your diet. But part of how you start back does need to consider your previous training experience because if you've never done bodyweight exercises, you may want form review to start vs. if you've lifted in the past, you may feel comfortable jumping back into some bodyweight moves to build up.
      Also, I have an amazing FB community of clients of all levels where I do help clients learn what they need and have the support of others on their fitness journeys that could be good to join: strongateveryage.com/fb-group?sl=youtubecomment

      You can take this or toss it but if you want to lose weight and build lean muscle to burn calories, in order to lose fat: Zero Belly or Golo. They are easy lifestyles to follow and eat clean. 90% of your weightloss is what you eat and 10% movement. I'm a yogafit instructor and personal trainer. When you begin do it slow in baby steps. Losing 1 pound a week will be both healthy and add up to success. As far as when to eat and workout a general rule is to eat a meal that contains healthy fat, fiber and protien. Eat every 2-3 hours and drink an 8 Oz glass of water before your meal or snack. 90 minutes before a workout and 45 minutes after a workout. Example: 7:30am breakfast, 10:00am snack, noon lunch, 3:30pm snack and 6 pm dinner and don't eat after 7pm. This way your body will be in a state of rest before breakfast next morning. This is a healthy eating plan for weight loss. Hope this helps.

    I have a legitimate concern about working out. I’m in CONSTANT pain of a level 5-8 of pain scale. I have a very good pain tolerance, so dealing with this pain daily all day is crippling. I’m currently very overweight from binge eating. I need both hips replaced in a few years. I’m scared to death of working out because of post workout pain adding onto my already constant pain. What can I do? I’m that person that needs to workout along with a healthy diet. What can I do?

    • @maggiemayhem2355
      @maggiemayhem2355 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Start very light. I am 280 and have started with very light physical therapy exercises. Using my body as a resistance and not doing too much. I feel the burn, I stop. This seems counterintuitive but I have done too much at one time, and quit within the week. Starting somewhere is starting. It will take longer to see results as well. Getting a dietitian to work with you (and I mean work with not demotivate) is a must, if you can't control your eating.

    • @thetimeisninefifteen
      @thetimeisninefifteen 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@maggiemayhem2355 Indeed. Start very light, with body weight exercises (wall push-ups or get ups for example [a precursor to squats where you are sitting down then standing up as a single repetition]), or even banded exercises. Slow but consistent progress is key here. I do the same as a man with one remaining ACL.

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Starting small is key and even talking to someone about your aches and pains to get your movements assessed. You may start with mobility work and even walking as you address chronic inflammation in your diet. Tracking your food if you aren't as well can be a great start!

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The easiest change is always best to start. If you aren't training currently and getting moving feels easier than dietary changes, start there. If you are training consistently, then small dietary changes are key. I would start by even just recording your current diet to adjust off of. Probably then adjusting calories or food type or protein. Here are some tips - redefiningstrength.com/fhp-s2e21-starting-to-count-macros-5-tips-for-beginners?sl=youtubecomment

    • @tiahnarodriguez3809
      @tiahnarodriguez3809 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      My tips are to be patient, monitor your protein and fat consumption (more protein/ less fat), and focus on compound exercises while dedicating specific days for specific muscle groups.
      For glutes specifically, increasing protein, and doing exercises that target your lower body (glutes, thighs, legs) should help you see muscle growth. Be sure to engage your core, so you get the most out of your exercise.

    • @thetimeisninefifteen
      @thetimeisninefifteen 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@daysofthebooYou're right on the money; yes indeed. Generally there are three phases in fitness; cutting (calorie reduction for a specific period of time, as it is important to have an end goal), bulking (where your goal is to eat in a caloric surplus to gain muscle mass from workouts), and maintenance (where you eat enough to not lose or gain weight).

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Here is more on mini cuts. They are strategic short periods of more "intense" macros and a slightly bigger calorie deficit. They are most often sort of 1-2 week sprints after a maintenance or even muscle building phase to help lose fat or bump you out of a plateau. redefiningstrength.com/meal-plan-to-lose-fat-faster-without-ruining-your-metabolism/
