How do I know if I’m at risk?
BMI
Waist-to-hip ratio
Measure waist circumferenceBest way to assess risk
![Page 12: Bye, Bye Belly](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052600/55778c91d8b42acf398b4f4b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Waist Measurement
A measurement of 33 inches or more
increases your health risks. A measurement of 35 inches or more
indicates an unhealthy concentration of abdominal fat.

Visceral fat is deep in abdomen
Decreases with regular exercise and a healthy diet
Targeted abdominal exercises may firm abdominal muscles and therefore flatten the belly
Spot Reduction?

Metabolic Syndrome (cont.)Study on lean, young, non-smoking individuals who were sedentary
Found that insulin resistance in skeletal muscle leads to alterations in energy storage
Insulin resistant subjects’ energy was rerouted to liver triglyceride production, elevating triglycerides in blood by as much as 60% and lowering HDL cholesterol
Suggests abnormalities in insulin resistance begin before abdominal obesity and plasma adipocytokines are present
