DALLAS, April 30 (UPI) -- A U.S. sports medicine doctor says people who want to lose a beer belly before summer arrives should first stop drinking beer.

Dr. Robert Dimeff, who directs primary care sports medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, said those wanting to lose belly fat to look more attractive or to be healthier should start with the obvious approached.

"To lose a beer belly you have to stop drinking beer, eat less food and exercise more," Dimeff said in a statement. "It's where most men store their fat, especially as they age."

Abdominal- and back-targeting exercises such as trunk rotations and roman curls using kettlebells or medicine balls are effective, Dimeff advised.

"The right balance of trunk exercise is important," Dimeff said. "Most of the abdominal muscles start in the back and wrap around to the front, and so you have to do a variety of strengthening exercises."

Detroit— The Detroit Tigers say a report released Wednesday that said Comerica Park has the highest charge for a small beer of any major league team is dead wrong.

And the publication, after back-checking Thursday, has agreed and will take the Tigers out of the top 10.

The Tigers vigorously denied a report by The Street — a digital financial media company — that the park was charging $8.75 for its smallest beer, a 20-ounce mug of suds.

The Tigers provided numbers to dispute the recent report. A representative from Sports Service, which handles the Comerica Park concessions, said Thursday the team's small beer (16 ounces) sells for $6.75, and the large beer (24 ounces) sells for $8.50.

The report by The Street said the Tigers sell a 20-ounce beer for $8.75, which the Tigers say simply isn't true. They don't have a 20-ounce beer, nor does one sell for $8.75, Sports Service said.

The Tigers also sell a 12-ounce "value beer" for $5.

Jason Notte, a reporter for The Street, said his publication's list was compiled with the help of Team Marketing Report. He told The News that he filed a revised story Thursday afternoon, and the Tigers were to be removed from the article completely. The new list was posted online shortly before 2:30 p.m., with a note of the correction.

The correction read:

"Due to inaccurate information from Team Marketing Report, the price of a small beer at the Detroit Tigers' Comerica Park was misreported in an earlier version of this story. Tigers spokesman Ron Colangelo says the price of the smallest beer at that facility is $5."

Team Marketing Report, on its website, also issued a correction, saying it had mistakenly used the Tigers' premium beer price in its survey.

In an e-mail to The News, Notte said the Tigers' "value" beer actually is tied for the third-lowest in the majors, behind the Arizona Diamondbacks $4, 14-ounce beer, and the Los Angeles Angels' $4.50, 14-ounce beer. The Pittsburgh Pirates, Oakland A's and Tampa Bay Rays also sell $5 beers.

The Miami Marlins, playing this season in their new ballpark, now are cited as the team that sells the most expensive small beer.
