in Health and Weight Loss
I'm trying to be skinny and looking in proportion for my body.
I'm not overweight. I'm 100 pounds in weight and 4'11'' in height.
My concern are my waist and my arms.
I look fat because my body fats are concentrated around the upper half of the body (apple type body as they say).
My waist is smallest at 30/29 inches, I want to make it to 25 or 26 though.


I'm determined to do it but I don't know how...
Can anyone advice me on how to do this? Any exercise, diet, tips, etc?
thanks in advance

    Since it's not possible to spot-reduce fat, i would follow the usual fat loss advice of -

    > eating fewer calories than you burn
    > following a full-body strength training program, like NROLFW
    > doing any vigorous cardio

    What is your current exercise routine?

    Full body strength program (weights weights weights)3-5 days and 1-2 days of cardio at most while eating with a modest deficit from your TDEE.. If you don't know TDEE please do a quick search lots of topics, lots of good information.

    Would cardio burn fat faster than strength training?

    I follow this exercise routine from an android app

    idk if its strength training or not. I always workout at home only...

    thanks for the advice :)

    I didn't know there was this TDEE until you mentioned about it lol.
    So I got my BMR at 1200 calories and TDEE at 1700 calories (based on this site -> http://iifym.com/tdee-calculator/).
