Spot Reduction

Any workout that targets a specific area of the body to lose body fat is referred to as spot reduction. An effective way to lose abdominal fat is to perform crunches. Even folks who wanted to reduce the fat on the back of their arms would work their triceps. Despite the fact that no studies have ever shown that it works, the notion that it is feasible to target a specific body area for weight loss is fairly common.

Because fatty acids and glycerol can be burned from any part of the body, not just the one you're working out in at the moment, it is biologically impossible to target certain areas of the body to burn fat from.This myth not only misrepresents the relationship between exercise and weight reduction, but it also misleads you into believing that you can reach your objectives by exercising only a portion of your body and ignoring the rest.
