Some simple lifestyle changes and regular physical activity can help you to tone your body and to remain fit and active. Here are 5 exercises that will help you manage your belly fat and will get you in shape in no time.
Sit-ups
To do this exercise, lie flat on the floor with your knees bent and keep your hands at the back of your head. Try to bring your upper body off the floor to come in a sit-up position by your core strength and repeat. This will strengthen your abdominal muscles and will help you build strength.

Burpees
Stand straight and then bend your knees and go down on the floor starting with your hands. Push your legs back to get in the plank position. Jump up and stand straight with your hand raised above your head and repeat.
Russian Twist
This exercise will improve your strength and will work your core. Lie down on the ground and flex your knees. Keep your feet off the floor and hold a ball at your chest level and turn your upper body to both the sides alternatively.
Crunches
Lie down on the floor with your knees bent. Hold the back of your head with your hands and try to bring your head till your knees. This will help you tone your lower and upper abs and will strengthen your belly muscles.
