One fairly common misconception is that belly fat will disappear when you have rock hard abs. In point of fact, the opposite can be true. You can have rock hard abs and still have belly fat. And, how much fat you carry around your midsection, no matter how hard those muscles are, is an indication of your risk for illness and disease.
There are two different types of fat, that which is over the top of your muscles and that which is stored around your organs in your abdomen, also known as visceral fat. The latter is the most dangerous because it secretes proteins that can trigger chronic inflammation and increase your risk for heart disease, certain cancers and diabetes.
