I don’t binge eat, I exercise 3 times a week, or as much as my schedule permits having a 2yold, work, partner and social commitments. I don’t drink. Still I get belly fat now that I am 35+. Wtf? Haas anyone solved this? Did you change diet? Sleep more? Exercise differently? Lower carbs? By how much? Please help me lemmee
Aging is a removed.
The best trick I’ve found is swimming, especially front crawl. It’s a crazy efficient workout that’s easy on my old man (38) body.
Cycling is also great but might be hard to fit into your lifestyle (I live in a city and without kids so it’s pretty easy for me to bike places rather than drive.) I also play soccer a few times a week but again, might be hard to fit into your lifestyle.
That being said, working out can only do so much. At the end of the day, it’s a calories in calories out game. Some stuff is surprisingly fattening, might be worth writing down your diet for a couple of weeks and checking with a nutritionalist (maybe chatgpt?) Or doing some research on it. We generally underestimate how much we eat and how much of it is junk, especially when our youthful bodies let us get away with so much.
Good luck!
PS:, for a great demo of how we underestimate our diets, I present:

Great ideas thank you! I definitely want to do more swimming. And I can bike in my city from and to daycare/work.
Will check the tube video. And recording diet is a good idea too thank you!
