lose your gut

Just do these moves by celeb trainer Radu Teodorescu every day for two weeks.

what you’ll need

1. An exercise mat or a towel.
2. A long bar or broomstick (unscrew the bristles).

1. waist twist
1. Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart and bend forward. Hold the bar between your palms, about three inches in front of your knees.

2. While bent over, twist your torso to the left so the bar is perpendicular to the ground. Repeat the twist 20 times, then repeat on the right. Do three sets of 20 on each side.

2. side bend
1. Sit with your legs together, knees bent, and feet about two inches off the ground. Hold the bar in front of your chest, and twist your torso so your arms and upper body turn to the left and your knees shift to the right. Keep your head facing forward as you twist. Hold the position for three seconds.

2. Then twist in the other direction—your upper body and arms should turn to the right as you shift your knees to the left— keeping your head facing forward. Hold for three seconds. Twist from left to right 20 times to complete one set. Do three sets.

3. bar crunch
1. Lie on your back with your legs and feet together in the air, and your knees slightly bent. Hold the bar in front of your chest with your elbows bent.

2. Lift your shoulder blades off the floor while pushing the bar toward your feet. Return to position A and repeat 20 times to complete one set. Do three sets.

4. bar sit-up
1. Lie on your back with your knees bent. Place your feet shoulderwidth apart and flat on the ground. Hold the bar in front of your chest. Keep your elbows bent.

2. Do a full sit-up so the bar comes up just past your knees. Repeat 20 times to complete one set. Do three sets.

5. twist & bend
1. Stand with your feet wider than shoulderwidth apart. Hold the bar straight above your head. Your hands should be the same distance apart as your feet.

2. Twist your torso and your arms to the right as far as you can.

3. Bend forward and bring your arms down toward your right toe. Return to position B, and then position A. Repeat this sequence 20 times, then switch sides. Twisting 20 times on each side equals one set. Do three sets.

FLATTEN YOUR BELLY

NO SALTY FOODS!

High-sodium choices like chips, pickles, and french fries cause water retention (aka a bloated stomach).

NO CARBONATED DRINKS!

The air bubbles in soda and seltzer swell your middle.

NO SORBITOL!

Candy or gum that contains this sweetener releases gas when chewed, which makes your stomach puff out.
