how to get rid of a fat pad
The fat pad will only reduce when you have lost most of your body fat. If you are skinny you still retain fat and for men that is usually in the fat pad. Like 2slow said, these are the things necessary to get rid of the fat pad. I had a fat pad of close to 3" at one point. I weighed 280 and I had a very long cock but very little showed without pushing back the pad. I needed to get very serious about my health, diet and exercise. Out of all the gains I have made the best gain was a loss 
A loss of the fat pad.

Just because I have fat pad doesn't mean it isn't working. Do you know what I'm doing to get rid of my fat pad? I'm very sure you don't know what's happening in my life and if I'm slowly getting results so don't assume just because I have a fat pad that it isn't working.
If you are very skinny and still have a fat pad the only thing that will get rid of this would be liposuction. I think in most men with a good diet and exercise routine they can lose the fat pad, I lost mine down to a 1/4" from almost 3" so it can be done. But if the struggle continues, with no results, saving up for liposuction may be a smart move. I hate giving surgical advice but in this case it may be necessary for some men.
You got to know your body, not everyone responds to weights as well as others same with cardio. A 170 lbs for 6'0 may not be as lean as you might think if you don't have that much muscle mass.
Judging blindly because I don't know you, I can't see you... My guess is that at a 170 lbs, 6'0 you need probably need to hit the weights. Cardio doesn't hurt.

I'm 6'1" and 225#'s with almost a 2" fat pad...and it's killin' me (not really, more of an annoyance really). It'd be nice to get to 200# w/less than an inch of fat pad...what are some of the lower ab and inner thigh exercise I can do to target this, (I'll be doing some cardio and watching my diet more closely as well)

You can't target an area to loose fat just as you can't choose where you gain it. I don't get a beer belly, I gain weight fairly evenly. Some people don't, some people gain weight from the waist up and then have skinny legs. You can't compare your ability to target a specific muscle, or a muscle group to break down tissue to burning fat. These are two completely different things.
Sure some girls have flabby butts and they can tone up doing squats. Or have flabby arms and train the triceps. But what would you advice a dude with a beer gut "oh yeah bro you need to hit them situps" not saying that doing situps would be bad for this particular case but its not the solution. Its not like if I wanted bigger arms and was happy with the rest of my body then I would just train bis and tris.
But again 170 lbs for 6" dude may not be that lean, it could be if he has decent muscle mas but he also could be all flab with love handles and shit. The OP might need to hit the weights.

We may also want to explore what 'fasting' means as a personal definition...when I hear the word, my immediate thought is 'water only for several days', but it could be far different for others. Logically, if one fasts for longer than a day or two, muscle-mass would suffer due to the body going into 'survival mode'...so let's define what we mean by fasting

My point for this was that I will not eat from morning until 4pm and then I will eat anything I like.

@Big Schwanz Acht
so if a middle-aged man (me) wanted to tone-up and drop 20-25# without having to go to the gym everyday, what would be your suggestion(s) regarding meals and exercise? Just for a base-line, I'm 6'1", 225# starting to get somewhat of a belly, almost 2" of fat-pad but otherwise healthy as a horse. I golf a couple times per week (walk the course w/a 30# bag of clubs on my back) and walk about 1/2 mile 3 times a day. I'd like to stay in-front of the inevitable 'old-man paunch' if I could.
Thx
p.s. be as harsh as you need to be, I can take it

This reminds of that time 2slow accused me of not owning a [words=https://shop.mattersofsize.com/products/sizegenetics-penis-extender]extender[/words] because I said hands can exert way more force than an [words=https://shop.mattersofsize.com/products/sizegenetics-penis-extender]extender[/words]. And he went innnnn on me hehehehe "this tells me you've never used and [words=https://shop.mattersofsize.com/products/sizegenetics-penis-extender]extender[/words] LOL LMAO LOL" when Ive probably clocked in way more hours than he ever has... Kind of a ridiculous lie too, lying about owning an [words=https://shop.mattersofsize.com/products/sizegenetics-penis-extender]extender[/words]...
Your tone is aggressive 2slow, you don't need to say "you obviously not a gym rat if you were blah blah" you don't know who we are. And there's millions of ways to go about weight loss and bodybuilding. There is no need to get defensive about your ideas, share them and if someone wants to take your advice good if they don't you have to respect that too.

its one thing being an athlete and its another thing being an athlete and being informed through schooling how the body works. I'm an athlete, i work out at the gym, i go to school and am taking kinesiology courses, taking anatomy, athletic training, etc. What schooling in the anatomical realm have you been through to prove things to me. Pull up some facts where you can target fat. You can't

I don't understand the aggressive tone but he'll just be himself. You can't make accusations or assumptions on someone you don't even know. If i make one then pardon me, but if i'm talking about facts i learned through school then... i don't know what to tel him.

Like I said earlier, your words are harsh despite the fact that you have some points. Try to get your point across without it looking like a fight.

I never said i only just work out lmao. Here are your assumptions yet again. I've played team sports, independent sports. But then again, someone who plays a sport defines that as an athlete to you when it's not true. Google "Define athlete" you get this: "and other forms of physical exercise" You need to become literate 2slow.
If you're going to make some arguments at least be a bit more respectful and be professional about it.
In order to make your day of smaller you have to reduce your overall body fat %. This can be done through a caloric deficit and intense interval training or even just intense workouts.

If that were the case I would lack the incredible muscles I have. For 8 years I have fasted and in this time I have actually gained muscle rather than losing it. Everyone is different and everyone has a different metabolism. In my fasting, my body has adjusted to this and my metabolism runs very strong. In the diggings it was difficult as my metabolism was running very slow. It took physical action to force my metabolism to kick in, but it did. Looking at my body today it looks better than it did when I was 18, I am 49 now. Soon I will have pictures. It should also be known that in this year, where I have lost all the weight, I did no weight training or exercise (with the exception of the last month where I do pushups and sit ups every once in a while). So with fasting and no weight training I have increased muscle and lost practically all of my fat.

Jeff Cavaliere (aka: Athlean-X) is one of my favourite you tubers and fitness channels out there. He is so full of knowledge and every bit of information that I seem to be searching for he always has the answer to it! Truly someone that i look up to in the fitness industry, he's a lifetime natural and he keeps it real with all of his viewers...
But yes, while in a caloric deficit you MUST make sure that you getting in all the required macros that you need while keeping calories low. If you also don't want to lose any muscle (or at least a lot) you must train for strength, progressive overload.

You dont fast everyday though. If you did it wouldnt be called fasting it would be starving.

@Big Schwanz Acht
I don't think you call it 'fasting' if you eat once per day...I always thought fasting involved consecutive days w/out food, no?
Big Schwanz Acht;713396 said:
I used to fast for 24 hours. Yeah 12 hours some people call it fasting but to me its just skipping lunch.
