A two-part plan—sit less and strengthen the glutes with targeted moves (glute bridges, donkey kicks, clamshells), plus weekly sprint work, cross-training, and a dynamic warm-up—helps restore glute activation, improve running economy, and reduce injury risk.

"5 Unique Full-Body Exercises to Target Belly Fat and Achieve Weight Loss"

Leon Bolmeer, director of UK-based Geezers Boxing, recommends five exercises to target belly fat and sculpt abs: planks with shoulder taps, dead bugs, bicycle crunches, hollow body holds, and mountain climbers. He advises performing these moves in three sets of 10 to 15 repetitions, two or three times a week, with at least one rest day in between, emphasizing that consistency is key. However, an obesity researcher argues that spot reduction is a myth and overall fat loss is the key to achieving desired results in specific areas.
