    Why is it so so difficult to get rid of belly fat? In this video we break down the science as to why its so different from fat in other areas of the body and what it really takes to burn it off. Once you understand the biology, the psychology and the hormones involved the process of losing bellyfat is alot easier to understand and achieve.
