Just got back into swimming and joined a team. What are some different ways to get rid of body fat in the chest/stomach/thigh region? I don't necessarily want to build more muscle just trim down.
Im 23 and only 5'2 so in my opinion I should be fairly tiny but I'm still in a 30/32 suit and a 38 chest. Is it too far fetched to think I should be a 26/28 suit and a 34/36 chest, is that even possible? Thanks guys
His thing is all about "going primal" which is basically tapering carbs to 's also primarily an insulin management style of eating, staying low on the GI scale.
That's pretty much it, alright. I'm not really sure in my case whether cutting out wheat per se is what made the difference, or whether it's due to the drastic decrease in carbs generally (homemade bread, pizza, pasta, etc. were a big part of my former diet). My wife, on the other hand, swears that cutting out wheat has "cured" her plantar fasciitis and knee joint pain, among other things.
Another aspect of this diet is that I'm rarely hungry, and never ravenous. The "good fats" (and here's where the controversy comes in) are saturated animal fats from pastured animals, i.e., butter, heavy cream, lard, etc., and they tend to be incredibly satiating. We do still consume a fair amount of olive oil, but other than that, tend to avoid saturated and polyunsaturated "seed oils."
I'm curious as to whether you too lost fat specifically in your abdomen when you gave up wheat (and grains generally). In my case, I guess most of my fat was in my abdomen anyway, but I was still pretty amazed by how specific the effect of going wheat free was. That's really why I've stayed on it all these months—I don't ever want to go back to having a roll of fat hanging over my belt!
