Belly fat is one of the most common and stubborn fitness
challenges many face. Factors like long hours at a desk, high stress, poor
sleep, and a lack of physical activity all contribute to that stubborn
midsection. To help tackle this, fat loss specialist Patrick Hong shared a
simple 10-minute workout in his June 27 Instagram post. Designed to be
done at home with no equipment, this quick routine targets belly fat and
jumpstarts your core-strengthening journey.
“You can’t spot reduce belly fat (sorry, Sarahs)… but you can burn calories,
boost your metabolism, and tighten your core with this simple 10-minute
workout,” Patrick wrote in the caption. “Do this 3–4 times a week alongside a
proper diet (aka a calorie deficit)… and you’ll be well on your way to a
leaner, stronger body.” Ready to get started? Here’s a breakdown of his quick,
no-equipment routine.
Set a timer for 10 minutes and repeat the following circuit as many rounds as
possible:
1. 15 bodyweight squats
A lower-body classic that fires up your quads, glutes, and
core. Keep your chest up and drive through your heels.
2. 30 seconds jumping jacks
A great full-body cardio move that gets your blood pumping
and adds a burst of intensity to the circuit.
3. 30 seconds mountain climbers
This dynamic plank variation helps torch calories while
targeting your core, shoulders, and legs.
4. 12 plank-to-knee taps (each side)
Stay in plank position and tap each knee to the ground, this
move challenges your balance and strengthens your deep core muscles.
