Dedicated, just curious were you overweight at one time? Not sure I see that skin getting any tighter in the area you are concerned about.

Yeah I was a heavy fat kid all through my youth.And you just threw fuel on the fire brother.IT'S ON!!!But why do you say it won't get tighter?Alot of bodybuilders have been over weight for long periods of time and managed to get the lower abdomen skin tight as if it was never an issue.Leo Ingram is a good example Evan Centompani Lee Priest granted these guys do a lot of juice.I feel I have the determination and ability to diet long enough and have the education on ways to make the skin get tight over time.But any insight you have will not go over looked.Please endulge me..

I was not trying to come across as negative. I know you have some concerns about the lower abs and when I look I dont see any sub q fat, just a bit of loose skin. It seems to have lost a bit of elasticity in the that area and once that happens I am not sure you can get it back. If it makes you feel any better I would trade a lil loose skin for half of the vascularity you have.

I know your not trying to be negative FG I consider you a large resource of knowledge for the board as a whole,besides constructive critisicism is all a part of getting better.
What concerns me at this point is that too much cardio will be counter productive.I've already burned all the fat off my body and too much cardio would only be a waste of time and energy and a little bit of muscle.Maybe I should try to just hit up some weighted leg lifts or maybe even give the sprints a shot.It's really back to the process of elimination to figure out what's gonna be the answer.Maybe a good week off completly from any cardio while maintaining the diet and coming back with a regimn based on targeting the lower abdomen.Hit sprints in the am and maybe hanging crunches every other day.This has actually inspired me in a way, of just rising to the occasion or challenge so do speak.I'm in no way burned out on dieting and am just as driven as I was the day it started.Today is the first day of week 14 My 8 yo son has chicken pox so I'm gonna take the weekend off and make sure he's comfortable.I still have to do back to finish out the training for the week but maybe I'll just start fresh on Monday.At this point the final 2 weeks are going to be soley focused on getting the loose skin as tight as possible Sure nothing dramatic will come to change in 2 weeks but at least I'll have an idea what might be beneficial and might not.10 Am sprints 30 sec intervals with 30 sec walk every other day and all abdomen work will be focused on the lower abdomen.
