Stomach fat

I swam for years and always kept in great shape. I quit for 2 years. After turning 41, which was 7 months ago, I started back up again. I swim 5 days a week for an hour, mostly freestyle. I'm in great shape again everywhere except for this stomach fat I can't seem to lose. Can anyone recommend any good workouts that can get rid of this?

  • I did the P90X WITH the kids, and the bands after they went to bed. The abs and wts I did at the gym (about 70 min) where they have an awesome daycare. Dan- I wasn't really hungry. I have a nutrition program that I am doing that is really pure nutrition and doesn't leave me hungry. I used Accelerade and GU as well, and lots of water. Fort- From what I read, the sleep can also lead to increased cortisol (stress) and keep the fat on. My kids are not stressful really. They are really good, most of the time. Carrick seems to have past the tantrum stage (the only one to have had that, thank God!), and they are really a happy bunch overall. Kirk- Not that you were addressing me in particular, but I don't have the desire have 6 pk abs. I know my abs are strong, they are just covered in lots of fat! I'm more interested in why the fat won't go away. My belly fat is grossly disproportionate to the rest of my body.
