    Because it has nothing to do with exercise and everything to do with diet, which you didn't even mention. Look at the sticky post at the top of the forum page.

    WHY ARE YOU YELLING? And no the OP doesn't need relacore. The OP needs to give it more time.


    Also, OP, how are you coming up with 15% body fat?

    Unfortunately you can't spot reduce man. If you're losing then you are on the right track. Patience is now your new best friend.

    And it takes time, and depends on types of exercise. I've been at it almost two years and just now am I seeing real improvements I started a different workout and have had much difference in my gut and other muscles

    I had good results with Pilates. Strange right? Of course that's just me. I got into it for the stretching to reduce injury and it ended with my core getting a great workout. I do it for about 30 minutes everyday before the rest.
