Love Handle Exercises – Side Bends Really Won’t Work

There's an awful lot of stuff on the internet that will show you how to get fat off your love handles. Fact is, the majority is useless. Designed to sell you some crap diet or some pills.

The side bend is the usual suspect in the exercise for love handles category. You hold something above your head, usually a broom handle or stick and then lean or bend left, then right. Then repeat, repeatedly. Get real! It would be nice if they actually worked.

They will not work if you are just targeting one particular area. Just doing one area will have no effect whatsoever 99% of the time. Lots of people and websites will tell you otherwise though. Of course they work, but only when they are part of a complete system. Not just targeting one area.

If you do side bends as part of a thorough workout then they will work. Couple the thorough workout with decent eating habits and you've cracked it. The fact is, to lose weight (or fat) you need to burn more energy than you consume.

To consume energy simply means to eat food. Burning energy off is done simply by activity or exercise. Any form of activity will burn energy off. This is basically what exercise is.

This could be walking, swimming, running, weightlifting or even sex. The last one sounds good to me! Any type of exercise is good for you. No exercise is bad for you. This is the reason people get fat. They eat calorie laden food and do little or no exercise.

You can do love handle exercises for ever and a day but ignore other areas and you will end up back at square one. I'm a naturally lazy person so I tend to go swimming a lot. It's a great non impact all round exercise. If you can get to a swimming pool you should. It's gentle and has great benefits for you.

I hate jogging and see no benefit in killing your knees every day. You may need them in later life! I believe the guy who brought us jogging keeled over and died while out jogging. Ironically discovered by two smokers walking past.

If you think it's time you took your health & weight serious then you can help yourself by getting a good all round system. Not some new fangled diet that won't work but a system that will work long term and is gentle enough for you to keep at it.
