Love handle problem!

[buffboff]

Hey, bros, I need some help. I have been watching the diet and doing cardio every morning before breakfast. I'm cutting up, getting cut up abs, but the love handles still won't go away. I'm serious... I can see the veins in my lower abs, but I still have a roll around the back. How the @#$%^! do you get rid of the damned things? Do I need to drop the carbs down to 0? Or am I just being impatient? This is a real problem for me. Thanks for any suggestions.

The subcutaneous fat around a man's waist is the toughest to get rid of, it is similar to what women face with their thighs. Here's an article about it: http://www.cbass.com/bellyand.htm

Thanks for the web page, PAE. Good article. Hey Ironman, I'm not having any luck finding Marco's post (the search doesn't seem to be working) but thanks for the response, bros. I appreciate the help and support.

You're doing cardio, but are you staying in your target heart range? Try staying near the top of it for 30-40 minutes a day.

i know where your coming from.i was a fat kid and my skin around my waist was stretched, and now that i bodybuild, even at a 8% bodyfat and a 29 waist line i would still have the spare tire.i think the only solution is liposuction.(im not 8% right now but was last summer, didnt start diet yet)

I had the same problem whenI was modeling. I was down to 6.8% bf and still had small love handles. I had lipo for 1500 dollars, and I have never had them again. I am now 235 lbs, 6.1, and 13% bf, and I do not have love handles.

What about that crap I have seen advertised that you rub on and it gets rid of fat?
