    haha same. Women's stubborn areas at least make it comfy for sitting on hard objects!

    Perfect Storm: time to start lifting some heavy stuff! :happy:

    Hey hunni, for the lower belly fat, do u mean the bit under ur belly button to ur bikini line?

    If u do then my trainor has been getting me to do this exercise cos I have an operation scar there that needs working to lose my bulge.

    Lay on the floor flat, lay ur arms out naturally on the floor next to u.

    put ur knees up, feet flat on the floor

    slowly extend ur right leg out all the way making sure u are keeping low, literally scraping the floor with ur heel the whole way.

    Repeat for the left leg

    10 times each side.

    Then put ur knees and feet together and do the same movement on both legs at once for 10 reps.

    I've been doing this for 2 weeks and I absolutely can feel those muscles working

    hope this helps :)

    anyone got a translation on this?

    Search for "cat vomit abs" on youtube. I find it helps pull everything in. Every little bit helps?

    I am at my goal weight and if I lose any more I will look sickly. However I now have a little upper hip back fat and a little lower belly pooch. I do not know what to do for these areas. There has to be some exercises I can do to help them along. Any Ideas?

    Yes, you can not spot reduce but if you're eating in a manner that supports fat loss and your body is willing to drop fat in that area you can help fat mobilization by exercising those specific regions.

    RE Upper Hip Back Fat: Honestly compound movements such as the Back Squat and Deadlift will help. Supporting movements such as the Romanian Deadlift and Back Extensions will also hit that region. I like side raises as well.

    You might also check to see if you have excessive lordosis of the spine. Being somewhat "swaybacked" increases the perception of both belly pooch and lower back fat.

    The biggest advice I can give you there is sit less and squat with good form. Stretch the hip muscles, and maybe throw in some deadlifts of varying types.
