Exercise and losing weight question
Posted on 12/5/16 at 2:13 pm

Hey guys. Over the last year and a half I've gone from 185ish to around 160(5'10). I've done so by adding a ton of elyptical cardio to my regimen and no longer working out chest. Now I just workout legs, arms, shoulders abs and back. People can tell I've lost a lot of weight but my stomach and chest are still problem areas for me. Especially with tight shirts
What should I do? I eat fairly healthy but rely on the exercise more to lose weight

Less cardio, maybe no cardio. Lift, eat more. Seriously.
ETA: You're 160 pounds. If your stomach and chest are "problem areas" the solution isn't to lose more weight. You need to add muscle.

Why do you not work out chest?

I just posted this another thread on the first page.
And your post is pretty much exactly what I was talking about.

It just seems people get tunnel vision and think all that matter is "weight loss". They see fats as the enemy when really fats are your friend. People who become obsessed with the scale start playing a dangerous game, imo. If you're not careful, you can become really unhealthy really quick. Follow a good diet plan and use a tape measurer instead of a scale. The scale is helpful, but it's not everything.

Drop the cardio and start lifting. And why in the hell would you stop doing chest?

Try adjusting your schedule so you are busy at the times you now eat, especially snacks or desserts.

Because I wear suits and button downs for work and was tired of having my chest poke out of my shirt

The more you weight you lose, the more muscle mass you will lose. You will almost always have that little poof because you have no muscle. EAT. LIFT.

well step one to solving that problem would be wearing clothes that fit

Thanks for your suggestion. My muscle mass is fine.. I lift weights 4-5 times a week and do around an hour of cardio 5 days a week
