What parts of your body are that last to lose fat?

I think legs in my case. I have to get especially lean with ab veins popping out before I see a lot of definition in my quads, and that's in spite of being a sprinter with pretty large muscles in thighs and calfs and glutes.

It's almost top to bottom in my case. Like my face gets slim real fast. I've never reached a point of having chubby face or neck. And same with shoulders, arms, best. But then as we work down, my upper abs are slow to get fat but if I'm chubby, I start developing a pouch of fat below the navel and love handles around there. Then my legs are the hardest go get really lean, vascular, defined.

Like in this photo, I was sorta lean from face down to pelvis... but my thighs and calfs were still fat with almost no vascularity and very little definition:


On a positive note, that tends to make me look like I have a way lower body fat percentage than I have... since most people focus on upper body before the legs. I carry the bulk of my fat in my legs.

I was actually close to 27 BMI in that above pic and not as a result of high FFMI but because I'm carrying lots and lots of fat... in the legs.

That said, it is also very annoying because other people don't understand my unusual body fat distribution. I know I am getting fat and drinking and eating too much and not working out too much when my legs feel heavy. But other people see six-pack and I refuse to drink or snack because I tell them I am trying to lose fat and they think I'm crazy. But I have to be sooooo fat, like maybe over 25% body fat, before my belly starts getting fat. It's my legs that get fat. But people don't pay attention to guys' legs so much so they think I am just too harsh on myself.

Belly. I hate it.

I wish it were among the last for me 😂 I have abs but still have love handles

My thighs are stubborn
