Fat pad, one of my greatest nightmare. I'm trying to get involve in some sort of fasting as suggested by Kyomoto

You cant target areas to loose fat but you can to build muscle? Sorry that doesnt even make sense at all. I can tell you dont are not a gym rat by what you say. And of course some genticly dont have a fat pad but those who do dont, dont need lipo that will only temporary solve there problem. What kind of bs advice is that. Hard work and eating good will help loose it and tighten it up. I get a fat pad when im not training hard but when i do train hard and watch what i put in my body i loose it. Why not advise the folks that havent gained anything in the last 6 months of p.e. to go get there ligs cut? Same thing right? Some are born with big dick and some arnt right? So why advise to put in The work for that but not to loose the fat pad? The fat pad is by far easier to loose then to lengthin you dick.. to the guy who posted this work your core and especially your lower abs and work your inner thighs and you will loose it. Fuck lipo! Its a temp solution! Hard work and eating right is were its at..and at 6' 170lbs thats a good weight versus your height..

Its simple anatomy bro, i don't know if you've ever taken an anatomy class. And i'm only refering to your first question and statement in this quote
 
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.

When you fast you loose muscle also and its unhealthy.

Completely false. I have fasted for 8 years and I have an extremely muscular body. I am a tad overweight as of now but when I am at my optimal weight I am all muscle. I am very healthy, just had my second physical last week.

Dld, comong from a boxing back ground as yourself you out of alll people shoulf know when you fast to loose weight you also loose muscle and strength. Its one thing if your over weight and do cardio and lift weights to tighten up while loosing weight hit to be 170lbs at 6' tellls me that guy can not possibly be a fat guy. Maybe and i mean maybe not a muscular guy but not a fat guy. He even said hes NOT FAT. Just because one has a fat pad does not mean hes fat. He just very well may not know how to work his lower abs as alot of guys dont. And are to lazy to put the work in..alot of you by your advice tells me most of you dont even go to a gym. And yes you can target certain areas to loose fat and for one to say you cant is not very smart when it comes to working out. And like i said im 47 years old and when i see my lower abs getting a little bigger i put the work in to get rid of it. Its as simple as that. Im a 170lbs right now and lean! NO FAT PAD BECAUSE I TARGET THE RIGHT AREAS! im not lazy! And to tell a guy whos 6' 170lbs to think about lipo is crazy advice. Why dont you guys go get surgery on your dicks when it doesnt grow in 6 months? Because alot of folks out there have the same philosophy as you do about not being able to target certain areas to loose fat as they will tell you, you cant make your dick bigger also without surgery..no difference at all in the 2..this guy needs to go to a gym to talk to a private trainer not folks who dont work out and no nothing..bad advice lipo! EAT RIGHT AND PUT THE WORK IN! HARD WORK PAYS OFF!

Calm down please
 
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

Lmao..i am calm bro..its just when one says you cant target certain areas to loose weight is a lie and then to recommend surgery to loose a fat pad is crazy. And lipo is only a temp fix. Like i said some of you think you cant target area to loose fat just like alot of folks will say you cant grow your dick with p.e. that the only way is through surgery. Both are none sense. And a uneducated opion from from folks that really dont know..

Your words are harsh. You do have a point but you are passing your point across with harsh words.

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

Well said. It's genetics. It depends where that individual stores their fat mostly. 2slow does not understand this or i misunderstood him :/
 
This reminds of that time 2slow accused me of not owning a extender because I said hands can exert way more force than an extender. And he went innnnn on me hehehehe "this tells me you've never used and extender 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 extender...

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.

Trust me i understand what it takes to loose fat and maintain muscle..been an athlete all my life.. compete to this day and can drop weight from 170lbs to 145 and look as big as a house at 145lbs and still keep a 275lbs bench for high reps..and i dont fast to do it..im just gonna say you do you if you like the way you look with your workout amd ill def keep up with mine..i have no fat pad and have lower abs at 47 so i cant be to stupid o the subject..so peace out and good luck to you

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.

You say you cant make accusations on someone you dont even know? But you did..and working out doesnt make you a athlete. Lol. Try playing sports on a TEAM! That makes you a athlete. Try playing soccer, football, baseball, boxing, mma, hockey..thats a athlete..and no i dont have some college degree telling me whats in a book..ive played physical contact sports my whole life with personal coaches! Been boxing since i could hold up my hands. So i have real life experience not from a book. And for you to claim you go to school for all this stuff and suggest fasting to loose a fat pad tells me you dont pay attention. Because anyone who has ever dieted will tell you thats the worse way to loose weight! Fasting and eating very little is the worse way to loose weight. And you have all this wisdome how the body works but yet you have a fat pad yourself? Bro your fat pad should be the least of your worries..and as much time you post on every thread on this board tells me and everyone else you more then likey dont even go to school let alone have time to study..and like i said already dont want to argue with you waste of my time. You just be happy telling folks how to get rid of there fat pad while you have one yourself..its like teaching someone how to write when you cant write yourself..Lol...im done..good luck with your fat pad..and yes now im being a d--k

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.
 
well...this certainly took a turn

lol

I appreciate the time and effort it took to respond with all the tips and advice.

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.

So you say you're done arguing but you keep on replying. And you start to insult me because you have nothing to resort to. I don't know what to think of you lol, sad.
 
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.
