Love Handles: Strength Training, Diet, and Lifestyle Over Cardio

Love handles are extra fat around your waist that can’t be burned away by doing only side bends or skipping cardio.

Doctors say the best way to get rid of them is to lower your total body fat.

You can do this by lifting weights, which builds muscle and makes your body burn more calories even when you’re resting.

Eating foods high in protein and fiber helps you feel full and keeps you in a calorie deficit.

Good sleep, less sugary drinks, and regular movement also help.

The key is to make small, steady changes instead of trying quick, dramatic workouts that promise instant results.
