Now knowing there is no such thing as spot reduction, is it possible to target specific areas that need work? Say I have a fatty chest, wouldn't cardio such as swimming, boxing, rowing tighten my chest while burning calories and therefore produce better results. Some stats on me, 190lbs, 6'02" guessing body fat of 12-14%. I'm looking to tighten up and define my mindsection (abs, chest, back) and get down under a body fat % of 10. Thanks for all the help and information. I am surprised at how interesting I have found nutrition, bodybuilding, etc.
