However, as you may have noticed, people in their twenties and teenage years can also put on belly fat. This means that belly fat can be caused by other factors and is not always due to natural aging.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Medical News Today, belly fat in any age group can be caused by several factors, including:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A poor diet<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alcohol consumption<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High-stress levels<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genetics<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Poor sleeping patterns<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lack of exercise (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/323309\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">17<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding these causes is pivotal as this paves the way for the best practices to help you lose unwanted fat. However, as much as we\u2019re focusing on losing belly fat, it\u2019s worth noting that we need some belly fat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A little belly or visceral fat helps provide cushioning around your organs (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/diet\/features\/the-truth-about-belly-fat#1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">24<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). The problem comes when you have too much of it. The best way of determining if you have excessive belly fat is by taking your waist circumference measurement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The recommended maximum waist circumference for a non-pregnant woman in any age group is 35 inches, while for a man in any group, it\u2019s 40 inches (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/healthyweight\/assessing\/index.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).

This is one of the frequently asked questions about a big waistline among men and women above 65. We understand that many young and older people are worried about an expanding waistline for fear of losing their physique.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This makes sense and it may explain why most of them are so determined to lose visceral fat. As mentioned earlier, excess visceral fat is also linked to multiple health issues. Seniors should be worried about having an expanded waistline for this reason, as these health issues become more common as we get older.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to one study, it is more dangerous for women(and men over 65 (between 65 and 74) to have excess belly fat than to be overweight. This is because an increased waist circumference is linked to increased mortality risk in this age group.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A meta-analysis that included over 58,000 people between 65 and 74 years of age found that a large waist circumference (over 102 cm or 40 inches for men and 88 cm or 35 inches for women) was associated with increased all-cause mortality even for those who were classified as having a \u201chealthy\u201d weight.

If you\u2019re among these people, it is worth noting that you\u2019re not alone. Many seniors find it incredibly challenging to lose visceral fat due to one or a combination of the following factors:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Menopausal_Changes\"><\/span><b>Menopausal Changes<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For women, reaching and surpassing the menopause stage can increase body fat and more of it will settle in your abdomen (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/womens-health\/in-depth\/belly-fat\/art-20045809\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). It is more challenging to lose the extra weight and belly fat that is acquired from going through menopause.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Muscle_Loss\"><\/span><b>Muscle Loss<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aging is associated with sarcopenia. The term refers to the loss of skeletal muscle mass (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/fitness-exercise\/news\/20141222\/weight-training-key-to-battling-belly-fat-as-you-age-study\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">25<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Muscle mass also plays a role in fat loss. It partly determines the rate at which your body burns calories. If you have more muscle mass, you tend to burn more calories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you have less muscle mass, you will burn fewer calories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you lose muscle as you age, your body reduces the number of calories it burns. As a result, it takes longer to see changes around your waistline, despite consistent efforts to fight visceral fat (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/319731\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reduced_Metabolism\"><\/span><b>Reduced Metabolism<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Metabolism is essential for belly fat loss as it affects the rate at which your body burns calories while at rest and during activity. As you age, your metabolism tends to slow down. We also tend to be less active and burn fewer calories. With the loss of muscle mass and reduced metabolism, getting rid of belly fat after age 65 becomes much harder.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reduced_Appetite_Control\"><\/span><b>Reduced Appetite Control<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you age, you tend to have trouble regulating your meals. Youngsters will typically eat less after a big meal, which enables their bodies to use up the calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/ency\/patientinstructions\/000893.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Natural appetite control appears to fade as individuals age. As aging progresses, we tend to consume more calories than the daily requirement, which also decreases, further leading to a calorie surplus and, ultimately, weight gain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite all these challenges, seniors can lose belly fat. But before we let you in on these practices, we must advise you first to consult your healthcare provider. Here\u2019s a look at some practices for how to lose belly fat fast after 65:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Weight_Training\"><\/span><b>Weight Training<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weight or resistance training is a great way to help lose belly fat after 65. As mentioned earlier, burning belly fat can be challenging in this age group due to muscle loss. By doing resistance training exercises, you develop or retain more muscle mass that helps your body burn more calories even at rest (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/324636\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several types of resistance training programs, including exercising using bodyweight and weightlifting.

According to Medical News Today, combining aerobic exercise and weightlifting can maximize results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This site summarizes a study investigating the impact of weightlifting and aerobic exercise on belly fat in men above 40.

Not getting enough sleep triggers your body to release a hormone called cortisol. This can affect your appetite. Decreased sleep makes you hungry, which causes you to consume extra calories resulting in weight gain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seniors may tend to get less sleep if they have common sleeping problems.

Brisk walking in particular contributes to overall fat loss, including abdominal fat. Maintaining a brisk pace elevates your heart rate and increases calorie burn, but you should walk at whatever pace is safe and comfortable for you. Consistency is another aspect as regular, sustained walking over time helps create a calorie deficit, which helps with fat loss. This has even better results when paired with a balanced diet. While results may take time, walking is a sustainable and joint-friendly exercise for overall health and weight management of those over the age of 65.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;&quot;https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=losing_belly_fat_after_65&quot;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;video autoplay=&quot;autoplay&quot; loop=&quot;loop&quot; muted=&quot;muted&quot; playsinline=&quot;playsinline&quot; width=&quot;777&quot;&gt;&lt;source src=&quot;&quot;https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ezgif.com-gif-to-mp4-1.mp4&quot;&quot; type=&quot;video\/mp4&quot; \/&gt;&lt;\/video&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;&quot;}\" data-sheets-userformat=\"{&quot;2&quot;:256,&quot;11&quot;:3}\" data-sheets-formula=\"=replace(R[-12]C[0],SEARCH(&quot;LINK TO QUIZ&quot;,R[-12]C[0]),LEN(&quot;LINK TO QUIZ&quot;),R8C[0])\"><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=losing_belly_fat_after_65\" target=\"_blank\"><video autoplay=\"autoplay\" loop=\"loop\" muted=\"muted\" playsinline=\"playsinline\" width=\"777\"><source src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ezgif.com-gif-to-mp4-1.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\" \/><\/video><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span><b>The Bottom Line<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Losing belly fat after 65 is no easy task.
