Exercise For Love Handles – Does It Hurt Bad?

by Gregory Windwalker on June 25, 2009

Exercise for love handles, is it painful? Depends on what you do. It doesn’t have to be painful.

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.

Love handles are actually ‘oblique muscles’ or ‘obliques’, named for the fact they sit at an angle at our sides. Oblique actually means ‘at an angle’.

The majority of advice in the fitness game will be garbage like – eat healthily, balanced diet, exercise regularly – that sort of thing.

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.

The biggest hurdle you face is that while you exercise for love handles, you only rid yourself of yesterday’s fat. Today’s fat is making it’s way to love handle central.

If, and it’s a big if, you could stop with the all the bad food you wouldn’t have to do nearly as much exercise to maintain a great body.

It’s about compromise. How much do you really want to lose those love handles? Is it enough to make a change to your lifestyle?

Or will you still eat like you do now and decide to do a lot more exercise. It’s your choice.

A popular exercise for love handles is side bends. You may need to do a few hundred a day to maintain your love handles and your current diet. Or only do a few dozen to keep the love handles flat if you make the lifestyle change.

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

As a lazy person myself I tend to eat as good as I possibly can so I can keep any exercise down to a minimum. I still exercise for my love handles but only to stop them re-appearing.

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.

Have you got the willpower to do it? If you wanna check out my fav weight loss I’ve reviewed a few that I’ve tried on my site. What have you got to lose? Maybe your love handles!
