My Problem

Hey everyone,

Here is my story.. I've been lifting for about a month now (3 days a week for about an hour) I usually run a mile, do an ab workout (100 crunches different variations) and upper body lifting ( I usually curl, tricep pull downs, assisted chest dips, forearm workout) my diet is as healthy as it can be for a college student! I'm 6ft 190lb I havent really seen any changes after the first month.. Im still around the same weight, my arms are pretty solid all the way around, I still have some pec fat, and stomach fat that I want to solid up. The only notice I have seen is that my arms are getting larger and more solid, but my main goal is to lose the pec fat and stomach.. I realize you cant really target one certain area but I just want to know if I should do more cardio.. workout longer etc.. If you have some time to give me suggestions I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Matt
 
Check your diet. Then check it again.
Get on a cutting program. You should increase the mileage you run if you are up to it. 1 mile is not far at all, and it takes a very short amount of time. Best if you don't even watch your distance, and go for time. Shoot for 30-45 min of cardio 3-6 days a week AFTER your full body strength training. Make sure that if you are doing aerobic exercise daily, change it up by alternating swimming, running, and biking etc.. don’t run every day unless you are a runner.
Notice I said strength training and not bodybuilding. There is a big difference. You can sub calisthenics 5-6 days a week for strength training with still impressive results.
Stay hydrated and eat often.
 
Do a seach on here. There are tons of good posts that answer these questions (that get asked everyday). Search for Massive member and articles that JP has written and posted on here.

My advice...Fullbody, compound movements, heavy weights, eat big and healthy.
