Hey everyone!

I was wondering if anyone has any advice for someone wanting to lose fat on face, arms, and stomach.

My legs, waist, butt, and thighs are fine, so I would like to exercise focusing on my upper body.

I know that cardio will work everything, but I want something more specific.

30DS is working my stomach really well and it's getting smaller everyday, but my arms look the same :sad:

My face is also still chubby:mad:

So any advice or personal experience success stories, would be greatly appreciated :flowerforyou:

    there's no spot-targeting fat, but if you have fat to lose, your body will know where to lose it from.

    watch your diet, lift heavy things, and rest

    Pushups and dips will make your upper body look more defined. Pullups/chin-ups also.

    Wont target the fat, but will make it look more buff =)

    as stated above.. cant spot reduce no matter how hard you try..

    for arms.. dips + chinups

    but to be honest.. heavy compounds are going to make the most difference. look into a strength training program.

    My understanding is that fat gets consumed in the reverse order it was accumulated. In accounting terms LIFO (Last in - First Out).

    And, there is no way to spot reduce fat.

    Eat the suggested deficit calories and get regular and varied exercise (cardio & strength). Nature will take care of the rest.

    Best of luck!

    BTW- Aside from reading about the above from a few sources. This is the way it worked for me.
