Decreasing fat pad

[trex]

In my quest to decrease the gap between my BPEL and NBPEL about .5-.75 in, ive been looking for ways to decrease my fat pad.

I know ppl say there are no exercises to "target" specific areas of fat loss, but are there ANY natural (ie nonsurgical) methods to decrease the fat pad?

Yes. You will have to do cardio exercises.

When you wake up in the morning, dont eat. Go running at a medium-paced speed. Run for 20-30 minutes.

If you want to go running after work (in the afternoon), you will have to run 20-30 minutes just so your body gets into the ''fat burning'' mode..then you will need to run an additional 20-30 minutes to actually burn the fat.

Also do lower ab exercises.

Reduce your carbohydrate (sugar) and saturated fat intake. Do not ingest ANY trans fat. Go for mono-insatured and poly-insatured foods that are good for you.

I totally agree with Radiohead. Unfortunately, I am unable to jog because of my knees. In the summertime, I swim and maintain myself in decent shape. Since I closed my pool in late September, I have noticed that my fat pad has expanded at least 1/4 inch. I just started doing push ups and leg lifts. Hopefully they will help.

Radio.. is morning cardio really that much better?
I do my cardio around 6 in the evening... so i need to excersize for 30min longer because its in the evening?
I may have to switch..
send me links if you can.

Radiohead is right. However, if you are serious about it, STOP EATING. Yeah, that's what I wrote. Starve yourself. We, Americans, eat ASTRONOMICAL amounts of unnecessary food. I have years of experience in fitness and bodybuilding, and through personal experience, I learned how much we really eat. I tried in the past diet and cardio, at burners, however, NOTHING worked until I really severely cut calorie intake.

Get 3-4 meals a day, VERY SMALL meals; for example half can of tuna with half cup veggies. Cut processed foods, no dairy, cut most of the carbs. Get a tiny amount of carbs from veggies or from whole wheat products. You will be hungry all the time. Don't worry, is normal. People has invented that is not normal, that is dangerous, bullshit. Drink a lot of water, take a multi vitamin and mineral. You'll see results in no time.

Start eating a calorie deficit, i.e. eat less calories than your body burns and start doing HIIT, along with weights, a few times a week.

I'm trying to get my body in better shape and with the above I've lost 5lbs in two weeks.

hey bro let me be the voice of reason that these other posts have not provided. .5 to .75 inches is NOT BAD for a difference in BPEL and NBPEL...and its the winter.

if say your bone pressed is .75 in the winter and your non bone pressed erect length is .5 in the summer most would say that you are in very good shape. I wouldn't worry about it.

stop eating? I dont know about some of this advice...

eat...but eat smart.... breakfast is important...eat it.....NEVER starve yourself.

Eat more frequent, smaller meals (by the time you get to dinner time it shouldnt be a large meal at all because you've been eating all day)...eat 5-6 small meals a day (if you do this you will never be too hungry at all), drink lots of water, cut out the sugary and fried shit and hit the gym (cardio and weights)
