reasonable visceral fat loss expectations?

[manonnorthshore]

what is a reasonable rate of visceral belly fat loss in inches?

I am a 35 male 5'8" 189#s, my widest point across my belly button is 37.5"
when i flex my abs tight i can drop it to 33.5"

i have very little body fat elsewhere, maybe an inch in the flanks, overall fairly muscular 16" bi's etc but obviously not jack'd

i assume low carb / low glycemic carb is my only solution

but am i better off with short intense cardio like 12mins
or long slow cardio in the 60% heart rate zone

any guess how many pounds that 4 inches might be holding?

thanks in advance

Really hard to tell without pictures.

I would do a weekly session of HIIT and two weekly sessions of sustained cardio @ 60% MHR.
And of course, keep lifting, and keep your diet as lean as possible, count calories.
