The Official Love Handle Solution (LOSE STUBBORN FAT)

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2

If you have love handles and want to officially get rid of them once and for all, you are going to want to sit down and watch this step by step solution for losing this lower abdomen fat for good. This is a stubborn area of fat for both men and women, but is particularly problematic for guys since it is the area that they store fat most readily. This also means that it is the last to come off when trying to drop body fat percentage. The key to getting rid of this belly fat however is to first identify the main problem. Every single time it is your nutrition and diet approach that just isn t good enough. No amount of cardio in the world is going to help you overcome a bad diet in the long run. You have to have a more responsible approach to what you are putting into your mouth if you want to get rid of love handles. Remember, just because it has a name and a location doesn t mean that it s something unique. At the end of the day it s just body fat. Every time you accumulate more fat around your waist then you want, it is because you are not establishing the caloric deficit required to burn fat adequately. This is solved by focusing on improving your nutrition to accomplish this goal. Now you may have heard about the 80/20 rule when it comes to achieving a goal. Be good 80% of the time and that will be enough to get you almost to the finish line. Not really the case here. Because love handles tend to be the last area to go when dropping body fat, you really have to be better than that. I m not saying it s not good to start off with these goals, but you will ultimately need to be sharper if you want to rid yourself of this waistline and low back fat permanently. So how do you get closer to a 90/10 effort on diet. Think about it in terms of 10 meals. For every nine that you eat that are in line with a proper fat loss diet, feel free to indulge a bit on your 10th. This will help you to keep your sanity while achieving the body fat levels low enough to lose the love handles. I definitely advise you to do this while still eating carbs too. This is something that many people make the mistake of when trying to get to lower body fat percentages. Carbs are helpful in so many ways. Not only do they help you to maintain that consistency needed to lose fat and keep it off but they help control cortisol levels in your body. When cortisol gets too high it gets very difficult to mobilize fat and the weight stays on. Keep a 2: 1 ratio however of fibrous carbs to starchy carbs at all times on your plate and you ll be making sure not to overdo it when it comes to achieving your goals while still enjoying your meals. When it comes to training you have to do three things right. First, you must evaluate your training split. Look, I am as big a fan as any of the PPL split. Heck, even a bro split can be done effectively too if you know how to stagger your exercises. That said, neither is even close to ideal if you want to prioritize body fat loss. Here something like PHA or peripheral heart action training is great at getting you to lose fat and build muscle at the same time. Choose compound exercises that alternatively work the upper and lower body and perform them in sequence with no rest in between. About 6-7 exercises should do it when creating a circuit. The weights you use can be changed up quickly in between sets to keep the load appropriate for the exercise that you are doing. After all exercises are complete. then take a brief rest and repeat for a total of 2-7 rounds. Next, you have to train your obliques. Forget what anyone else has told you about oblique exercises giving you a thick waist. This is not true. It s the fat laying over the top of them that is doing that. Get rid of that fat through the steps outlined above and keep training the obliques as shown and you will create a visually tapered waistline that looks amazing. Finally, while fasted cardio is something many rely on to get rid of love handles, remember - it s always about the nutrition first. If the eating is in place then the fasted cardio can have an impact, especially with these areas of stubborn fat. Most research shows a net net effect with more fat being burned during a fasted cardio session but less afterwards. That said, the additional in-session boost in the absence of insulin can help with those final percentage points of body fat that are keeping the stubborn fat.

I do handstand routine. One of the exercises is Yuri Marmerstein band routine and it scares me a little. Basically the whole routine scares me a little because I had shoulder injury (maybe it was impingement injury) before about 2 years. The symptoms like pain, weakness at the shoulders, discomfort still come when I practice particular exercises. I asked a professional if it is good to do handstand and he told me that it put too much stress on your shoulders. He also said that shoulders are for mobility not for stability and that I can injure myself very bad, if I continue to do handstand or handstand routine. I don t know what should I do is it better to listen to my body and if it hurt of doing some exercise to stop and do the easier version of it. Or I should change that exercise with other exercise. I am 17 years old, skinny fat guy, with not so strong physic but with passion to maintain the handstand and even to workout normally if it doesn t damage myself of course. So that is, I wanna start working out I wanna start making some gains I wanna continue practice handstand but I am very afraid of doing it.

Awesome video! Question. I am currently doing pplppl split, on top of daily cardio(normally low intensity. I meal prep 4 days out and on 5th day I allow myself 3 free meals, all while staying in my caloric deficit. I am taking a bit of an accelerated approach eating roughly -800calories to maintenance. So far in 12 weeks I ve lost nearly 20lbs. However, I am dealing with a really stubborn belly fat, I deal with bloating issues that I take stuff for and I deal with fluctuation. I know I can t choose where fat gets burned, but I m wondering if there are things I can change in my routine, eating, etc that might boost it up, or if I should just stick with what im doing and be patient? Thanks

Hello AX team, i have a question about face pulls. I am not sure if I m doing correctly, do you open up like giving a hug (sideways) or like those air plane guide guys that move the lights up and down and back. Do my elbows have to be high low or middle height. I always feel the sore and tiredness when doing the exercise in different parts so I m not sure what I m targeting and if doing correctly. I have watch all you face pulls videos but I m still confused. If you do could do one brief explanation and highlighting the muscle groups being targeted would be great. Good videos watch them all. I have lost 50 pounds with your simple explanations, have have also gained bout 5 lb of muscle

Hi Jeff, have been following ur videos for quite a while now but I'm 33 and obese 1 and I'm pretty tight on finance to go to a sophisticated gym or to have a personal trainer - i dream of having a physique like u guys but it stays only with dream. Last year, i did a mistake of just doing cardio and it helped to reduce weight but I lost a lot of muscle than fat resulted in gaining a lot now - could you please help or suggest me what a person who has never done weight training before and is obese and doesn't have the money to get a private trainer has to do to achieve his dream of having a physique like u guys.

A very basic question, but supposing I am skinny fat, currently I am maximizing my calorie intake (clean eating) by eating loads of rice along with other foods however I ALSO have love handles, should I first get rid of them by changing my diet or focus on gaining only and then lose the love handles later on by incorporating the points mentioned in your video. Stuff like changing exercises and routine will be incorporated regardless since its important to train the obliques but I'm most confused about my diet at this stage.

What would you recommend as the minimum amount of carbs per day? I've abused carbs in the past and cut them out completely in January 22, and more recently have it at a consistent 20g per day now. I've lost 14kg, but my weight lost seems to have stopped ( I'm resistence training now as well) energy levels are stable running on fat and I can get through Hiit workouts. But I'm worried that cortisol levels like you said, might haunt me going forward

I m on my second go of the jacked program. I m happy with my results but I know they would have been better if I actually followed your diet program. Entering month 3 of the program now. Since it s only 3 workouts a week I m going to incorporate cardio sessions everyday and twice on days off from lifting. Going to track my calories and stay in deficit for the month. Hope it cuts some more fat off the middle.

So I was wondering what is the best way to maximize gains in jumping higher, being explosive, I realized that yes you can work out and be strong but sometimes that doesn t make you jump higher. Like there s other factors missing in the puzzle, if so, what can it be? Any good workouts to help with jumping higher and being explosive? Hopefully this can be a video, thanks!

Can diets like Water fasting have any actual benefits on weight/fat loss and working out/muscle gain if someone adapts to a healthy diet afterwards?
Is Water Fasting + HIIT a recipe for disaster or success?
If Water fasting doesn't actually help lose weight/fat quickly what are better ways to begin fat loss for those who are less patient?
