How do I get rid of love handles?

>>40554933
spot reduction via russian twists

Lower body fat %

Keep losing fat. No such thing as spot fat removal. Try fasting, Cutting Calories, Low Carb, More Cardio ---- Pick any these will all work

>>40554953
spot reduction doesn't exist

I dont want to lose weight. Im trying to bulk but also look lean.

>>40554989
You won't get rid of your love handles by bulking. You need to cut

>>40554989
Spot reduction doesn't exist. You have to lose fat. There is no other solution that doesn't involve surgery.

lose the fat first then bulk. Other than that I don't know what else would work

Im only 140lbs at 5'9 but for some reason I have love handles and dont want to cut back to being a fucking skelly

lipo. 3-5k. that's like 1 paycheck you plebes.

>>40555041
Try HIIT cardio

>>40555041
You are skinny fat. Assuming you are a novice lifter or below, you can lose fat while gaining muscle. Eat at maintenance, lift, do cardio.

Report back in 6 months.

>>40555156
this desu. It is a common meme that you have to either be bulking or cutting completely. You can eat at a slight calorie deficit and still make respectable gains as long as you have dedication...

tldr; lean gains are possible as long as you are a novice and you dont have a lot of muscle definition already

>>40555041
READ THE FUCKING STICKY. I used to think these threads were trolls, but it's every fucking day with you newfags.

>>40555041
you are skinny fat. most important thing is that you lift. assuming you're a beginner you can get away with eating at maintenance for a while or even a slight deficit

>started lifting 2 years ago together with a friend
>I'm 6'1 he is 5'11
>tfw my beginner gains are over after only 4 month while he got more swole everyday for another 3 or 4 month
>other friends even accused him of taking roids while complimenting me on "being clean"

And this was the day where I learned that genetics is the biggest cunt in the world.
He literally completely stopped lifting half a year ago, and I just start to come close to him again...

>>40556058
It's pretty gross, but it really doesn't feel like lifting's gonna flatten it out any.

>>40555944
What was your weight and what is it now? Did you just Auschwitz yourself without lifting? Were you going very fast too?
Good progress as far as fat loss, now start lifting

>>40555512
underrated

>>40555041
You probably sit too much.

>>40556139
140 now, was 280. Took about 7 years, 90% done without lifting, yes. I've been lifting, my arms are starting to look less bony, my chest more solid, but my stomach remains saggy.

>>40556189

good job anon. now you need to clean bulk and gain some muscle to fill yourself in.

>>40556189
That's awesome. Loose skin aside, you will only reap the benefits of not being a fatass.

Average pace of a pound a month is very good, but I have a feeling you kind of spiked towards the end there and the skin is still adjusting or no?

>>40556189
hopefully that will be me. Currently 300 but I'm hoping to lose about 80lbs by 2019. You should be proud

>>40556250
>but I have a feeling you kind of spiked towards the end there
How could you tell? I went on a 1000 calorie or less diet near the end. Starting building up to maintenence after New Years. Do you think that's what screwed my stomach up?
>>40556234
Clean bulk meaning not very much over maintenance, right? I'm still kind of scared to eat even near maintenence some days.

>>40556189
Thats honestly really impressive. Good job, anon.

>>40555512
Can confirm. Ever since I stopped loving things I haven't even had the energy to make myself breakfast each morning.
The fat has literally started melting away. Dropped from 165 to 158 and still going

>>40556100
u need to get fat reduction surgery or some shit idk ur all kinds of fucked up, with that head id probs just result to the shotty

>>40556309
Thank you very much.
>>40556300
You'll make it, I'm sure of it.
>>40556327
I do have a pretty big head, so it'd be hard to miss, at least.

Think I'll be fine if I just bulk and then cut the lovehandles in six to eight months?

>>40555944
Fuck anon i have the same stomach but i kinda have some muscles filling the upper body, currently cutting hoping to fix it without surgery

>>40555041
Disgusting skinnyfat

>>40554933

>>40555944

Surgery that shit.

>>40554989
you have to lower your bodyfat %, that doesn't necessarily mean lose weight

>>40554933

Eat clen
Tren hard
Sleep
Repeat
...
Profit

195 to 165 (5'9") [two seperate measurements btw] here by eating clean, counting cals and cardio (spotty on that tho)

should i keep full cutting (~1500 cals) and doing cardio or eat at maintenance (or a little below?) while lifting? I started SS a little while back but I was eating at a heavy deficit and just felt like it wasnt working at all (probably cause of the deficit)

I've read the sticky and am still confused about this

>>40555004

Too fuckin bad then cupcake, enjoy having that unsightly back fat protrude all the way out whenever you wear nice fitting clothes.

Pun intended.

>>40555944


Love handles ARE fat you homo fuck. What did you think they are? Muscle?

>>40557380
ya :(

>>40555944

>>40556305
dude you should not be afraid of eating above maintenance as long as its healthy foods

>>40554989
hack them off with a knife then

>>40554988
no one likes you man

>>40554989
are you a Retard or Kind of??

You want to lose, those love handles, you must lose FAT!
You want to lose fat, you must CUT!
You Dont want to lose muskle by cutting, pretty easy, just exersice enough, eat clean, but always montain a calo deficit!

It going to last Long, but you can make it fag with no love handles.

>>40554988
This. Fat burns fairly evenly around the body. Just cut your bf to 10-12% and ta-da no more love handles.

6'
220lbs
295 1RM barbell bench
315 1RM barbell squat
400 1RM barbell deadlift

I have love handles, and a pretty high bf. Can I get down to ~200lbs and or 10-12% body fat while maintaining my strength numbers and muscle size? I want to stay natty.
