Fitness coach shares simple 10 minute no-equipment workout to burn belly fat at home: ‘Do this 3 to 4 times a week’

Struggling with belly fat? A fitness coach shares a simple 10-minute no-equipment workout you can do at home to boost metabolism and tone your core.

Belly fat is one of the most common and stubborn fitness challenges many face. Factors like long hours at a desk, high stress, poor sleep, and a lack of physical activity all contribute to that stubborn midsection. To help tackle this, fat loss specialist Patrick Hong shared a simple 10-minute workout in his June 27 Instagram post. Designed to be done at home with no equipment, this quick routine targets belly fat and jumpstarts your core-strengthening journey.

“You can’t spot reduce belly fat (sorry, Sarahs)… but you can burn calories, boost your metabolism, and tighten your core with this simple 10-minute workout,” Patrick wrote in the caption. “Do this 3–4 times a week alongside a proper diet (aka a calorie deficit)… and you’ll be well on your way to a leaner, stronger body.” Ready to get started? Here’s a breakdown of his quick, no-equipment routine.

Set a timer for 10 minutes and repeat the following circuit as many rounds as possible:

1. 15 bodyweight squats

A lower-body classic that fires up your quads, glutes, and core. Keep your chest up and drive through your heels.

2. 30 seconds jumping jacks

A great full-body cardio move that gets your blood pumping and adds a burst of intensity to the circuit.

3. 30 seconds mountain climbers

This dynamic plank variation helps torch calories while targeting your core, shoulders, and legs.

4. 12 plank-to-knee taps (each side)

Stay in plank position and tap each knee to the ground, this move challenges your balance and strengthens your deep core muscles.
