The Secret To Getting Cut REVEALED!

[Nelson Montana]

in men the belly is usually the last place excess fat is stored. so this is normal. only way to get rid of that is to lose more fat. you can do the ab machine all you want and its not gonna make a difference.

you always see fat people using the ab machine at the gym and i roll my eyes, its silly to spot train. i had an arguement with a friend about this who would use the ab machine and claimed he was losing weight in his belly. it wasn't from the machine it was from him working out more and losing body fat which gave him the impression that his strategy was working.

No, you can't spot reduce, but you can build the muscles in the abdominal wall and it's the lower ones that are harder to train, therefore, they droop and the fat excentuates the "pooch." Working lower abs is a must and most ab machines don't hit them.

Lou Ferrigno never worked abs.

Lou Ferrigno never worked abs.

Not while bulking. VInce Gironda felt that ab work drained too much energy and worked against getting bigger.

Yes you can.
The studies on topical weight loss products has shown that one can lose circumference in one leg. (on a caloric deficit of course)
Not to mention it has also been proven that fat loss does occur adjacent to the muscles being worked.

he is a strong safety bro. not a CB. totally different position. CB's are skinny and fast. strong safeties are more bulky and they have to get up there and take on blocks in run support.

but yeah he is a freak.. well was a freak. he is past his prime now

You're reaching
You said Samoans were all linemen...
Not to mention there's not that much difference between a corner back and a safety.... Their pretty similar in size and speed.
Corners can't be weak either. Corner back play at the line of scrimmage gets physical.

Interesting, though I can get into a few ways that study is flawed. Here's another one that I believe further study will support -- wearing a sweat belt just makes you lose water, right? Mmmm, I think there is also a little fat burning there as well. Of course, it's slight and much be in conjunction with intense exercise and a calorie deficit, but I find that continued use creates a smaller waistline in the long run.

Cardio just eats muscle. Train to build muscle. Then, yeah, I walk and bike everywhere.

I agree. I went crazy on the cardio 2 years ago and got ripped but lost a fair bit of weight.
