in Introduce Yourself
Hi, I'm a male who is tired of the tire around his midsection. A male who has decent muscle and that some may even find "hot" but I am SO sick of this friggin whack-*kitten* belly fat that hasn't gone awayand I know now I need to continually log my food in a very strict manner. I also need to STICK to a certain training program that is geared towards fat loss and not JUST muscle gain. I am looking for lots of friends of all different backgrounds, shapes, and sizes who want to join me on this continuous journey of fitness. I am also a newly NASM certified personal trainer who will be seeking employment in a gym very soon. Add me if you would like. :)

    Although I have been working out (almost) my entire life...i've never seen any sort of definition in my midsection. UGH! Its so frustrating! I've really been trying to focus on my core strength and abs, but still...its so hard to see any results! I do planks as often as I can, and also try to do Ab Ripper X (from P90X) 3 times a week. I'm hoping with a step up in my "cardio workout", eventually I'll see SOMETHING!
    Needless to say, I share you frustrations!!

    Hey Erin, my my experience, diet is all about the midsection. I have lost 7lbs and some of my midsection by eating better and little exercise. working out will only do so much, it's 80% diet.

    Your training doesn't need to change much, if at all. You simply need to begin to reduce calories until you're in a deficit.

    Add me if you wish! I log a lot of food and exercise 5-6 days a week. I've only got a pound and a half left to lose - but it's been a real ***** to shave off that last bit! We can encourage each other!

    Feel free to add me too! I love working out, but diet has always been hard for me to manage. Would love to have motivating friends that will help me deflate my tire too :)
