How Do I lose fat around my stomach???
July 27th, 2009 | 
Author: I am currently weight training to put on muscle, and am relatively skinny except for around my stomach which has a lot of fat around it.
I do not want to do large amounts of CV because it will lose the muscle I have already achieved. How do I go about losing the fat on my stomach, especially on the sides, whilst maintaining my muscle training. I am 21 and want to achieve the V shape with a flat stomach especially on the sides. Currently it looks like an upside down V!!!!
All advice would be most helpful. Cheers.

It’s hard for me to tell you where you’re going wrong because you didn’t say what sort of foods you are eating, your current training routine etc. You are definitely right about not doing too much cardio because you will lose the muscle you have built, what I’ll do is give you a few tips and hopefully you will find something you have missed in your current routine.
Tip 1.
Train weak body parts twice a week, so if you have small shoulders it’s a good idea to work your shoulders on 2 of your workouts a week.
Tip 2.
Nutrition is very important when it comes to achieving a flat stomach. The carbs you eat should be Sweet potatoes, brown rice, wholewheat pasta and wholewheat bread. These carbs are released into your blood stream at a slower rate, so this prevents your body from storing body fat.
Tip 3.
Eat lean sources of protein like Fish, Chicken, Lean Beef, Turkey, Protein powder, pulses and almonds, protein causes the body to burn fat and hold onto muscle, this is because it is harder for your body to digest protein, which results in your body burning more calories doing nothing, but at the same time holding onto quality muscle.
Tip 4.
Eat 5-6 meals a day, the more you eat, the more fat your body will burn, this does not mean you can eat 5-6 meals of junk, you still have to follow the food groups I listed above.
Tip 5
Change your training routine every 6-8 weeks. You’ll be surprised how fast your body can adapt to the same stimuli day in, day out, so keep your body from adapting always spice up your workout every 6-8 weeks.
Tip 6.
use weights when doing ab crunches to build more muscle around your midsection, if you are a member at the gym look for a ab machine which allows you to increase the resistance, this in conjunction with clean eating will trim down your waist and make your abs more visible like your other muscle groups.
I hope this is of help to you.
