Muffin tops may be a breakfast favorite, but muffin tops around the waistline are far less beloved. After hitting 50, this area of the body tends to accumulate excess fat due to a drop in estrogen and a rise in cortisol, which causes fat to be redistributed from the thighs and hips. In addition to impacting your physique, excess body fat is extremely unhealthy. The muffin top is often visceral fat—the type of fat that surrounds your internal organs and places you at risk for heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
In order to get your workout routine in top shape, we spoke with Matt Bandelier, director of business development at Eden Health Club, who recommends five daily exercises that can shrink muffin top faster than cardio after 50.
