Gained muscle but trying to lose body fat

[Anonymous]

Ever since I got to college I have been more active (going to the gym more and what not). I was over weight when I was younger, I have a bit of extra skin on my lower stomach area. I have been lifting weights, and have gained quite a bit of muscle (I can tell by just looking in the mirror). I have been working hard on trying to become fit and look better myself, though a main issue has been body fat. While my upper body seems to be quite muscular and firm, but mid section (mostly lower-mid section) tends to still have the characteristics it had back many years ago.

I have been eating quite clean as well, and still working out at the gym on all body parts. Any advice or links to go to to help me out with this? Unlike the rest of my body which I have seen good results, my mid section seems to be lacking.

There is no natural way of losing that section of fat. You forced your body and skin to store that fat, now it is holding on it forever. and you can't lose it naturally because you are still eating clean and your still probably eating at the caloric maintenance level.

The following are un-natural ways of losing that section:

Liposuction

Tummy tuck

Smoking or Chewing Nicotine gum (yes Nicotine has the ability to tap in to your body's deep visceral and subcutaneous fat reserves)

Injecting HGH (hgh has been proven many times to reduce belly fat and tighten stomach skin. Its injected in the subq layer of your stomach so it has spot reduction effects. Severe burn victims are also given a high dosage of hgh)

Clenbuterol- the most popular oral form of steroid. It specifically targets the stomachs fat for energy. Ever heard of Mike Chang? that Chinese buff dude in YouTube? His motto is "Eat clen, Tren hard".

Great advice

You'll need to do some core exercises and do aerobic/anaerobic activities, such as tennis or basketball, and/or take up running, to lose that mid section.

But regardless of how much you work out, you have to limit your food intake in a planned, scientific way, in order to lose body fat. Otherwise, though you add muscle, there will be a lot of fat overlying it!

You do weight lifting to build muscle. You do cardio to burn fat.

i think you need to need to do more cardio

Cardio cardio cardio !

You won't lose significant amount of body fat any other way. Shoot for 45min to 1hour of cardio after your weight training. Either walk/jog at a moderate pace, bike ride, swim, or eliptical. Remember time with elevated heart rate is more important than speed. So like I said 45minutes to one hour of cardio after weight training or set aside your own day for cardio for one full hour.

.you should defiantly do more cardio, and make sure you have a workout plan with a warm up main exercise and a cool down.
