Tips to Lose Stomach Fat While Sitting in Chair

Sit on an Exercise Ball

If your boss allows it, change your chair for an exercise ball. It will exercise your core muscles, force proper spine alignment, improve circulation and make you feel more energetic than sitting at a regular chair. This will also resist to get deposited extra fats on your stomach.

Desk/Desk Chair Exercise

Using an office chair with wheels, hold onto the edge of the desk and push yourself back while extending your legs all the way. Pull yourself back to original position and contract your legs.

Seat Squat

Push your chair back and stand a few inches in front of it. Your butt should be facing the chair, your feet hip width apart. Hold your arms out straight in front of you, and then slowly bend your knees and lower down, so that your butt goes backward, as if you’re about to sit down in the chair. Keep your weight on your heels, and as soon as you feel the chair graze your backside, stand back up—don’t relax into the seat. Repeat.

Seated Reverse Crunch

Scoot forward so that you’re closer to the edge of your seat than to the back, and place your hands on the armrests. Put your knees together and slowly pull them up off the ground as close to your chest as you can get them. Hold for a beat, then slowly lower down. Try to keep your back straight, rather than rocking back and forth. Repeat.

Move Around

Move around as much as possible. Just because you’re sitting down doesn’t mean your hands and fingers are the only part of your body allowed to move. Try getting a small medicine ball or heavy book and hold it between your feet. Keep your legs straight out and do 10 to 20 leg lifts every hour. This can help tighten up your lower abs and burn a few more calories during the day. Over one week, the calories you burn begin to add up.
