    Problem with waistline :D

    Im new in the forum and i figured i would ask u guys this question.
    I work out quite a bit (3 times a week, and i do cardio on the off days) and i have a fair definition (im a skinny dude, but i have some muscle.
    the problem is this one: my abs are cut, but only like my top 4 ones, and besides that, i have love handles. i wanna know if there is anything i could do to lose them, besides what im already doing, which is cardio and diet.
    i have had this love handles pretty much for as long as i can remember, and they are a certain pain in the ass, since my body would look 100000 times better just by loosing them
    thanks

    its genetics dude, BUT if diet was perfect and your hitting cardio on ALL off days they would be gone in no time.

    when do you do cardio and for how long?? also how many cals a day, low carb??

    A bodyfat reduction is all that will get rid of them. That's where I carry my trouble fat too and it's the last place to go. Keep dieting and doing your cardio steady and they'll come off.

    i know its the last place to go, sadly , i droped a lot of weight some years ago and it was crappy, like i lost them ,but my face ended up looking demacrated, i was practically skin and bones, weighting 54 kilos and at 1.80 meters tall, u can do the math, nowhere near healthy

    regarding cardio, im doing 20 minutes on stationary bike and 20 minutes on the threadmil every day, i think im burning like 350 400 calories there every day.

    besides this i do judo 2 or 3 times a week, for 2 hours, which involves some cardio work and of course a lot of calorie burning.

    i think i was making a mistake because i was eating a lot of rice in my diet, like most of my meals were a lean stake and a serving of rice, is it really bad? i know the steak is ok. The only suplement im taking is malto, and its because i need some more energy for going to judo after workouts.

    now with more info do u guys have any tips? there is no way im gonna hit the surgeon for them ,as i know there is the first place i start gaining weight

    You want to limit the rice while dieting and focus on a lot of fibrous vegetables for carbs. Aim for low gi foods.
    Are you doing bike and then the treadmill imediately after or are they at 2 different times of the day.

    Fibrous - broccoli etc.

    You should do you cardio all at once. Do the bike and go straight to the treadmill to keep your heart rate elevated the entire time.

    I'd also suggest doing cardio for far more than 20 mins.

    40 is far better!
