Hello /fit/
My girlfriend has been complaining about her belly. She has lost quite a bit of weight while we have been dating and is now at 140, more or less at the lower end of what i have read is healthy for a 5'10" female.
What do?
She and I have been wanting to get stronger and have been doing more or less what is in the wiki in the sticky, With me lifting 5-6 days/week and little cardio to bulk up. She does 3 days of 45 min cardio and 3 of lifting with me.
Yet despite the progress she still does not like her tummy.

As noted in the sticky information, there is no spot reduction. The best method of increasing metabolism is lifting (and getting) big and being flexible.
The good news is that size is nothing to even plan around. Girls are limited in that respect. Yet, increased testosterone is hugely beneficial, as it intensifies sensations, libido, and orgasm.
Flexibility helps with form and stabilizers, and it increases fascia size and circulation (and reduces stress, even from tightness) which increases muscle mass potential.
A simple routine is just squats, power cleans, and pullups. It's just about having fun though. If that includes bench press, great; but the key is low reps and high weight.. and beyond the gym, imagining how great it feels to lift.

want to lose fat? you cant spot reduce. lose weight. doing 1 billion crunches wont do shit if they are covered with fat.
So what my girlfriend should be focusing on are strength movements with more dieting.
Thank you for the information, didn't know that about testosterone.

Damn dat marathoner looks like shit

I'm aware that spot reduction isn't a thing. I guess I don't know how much body fat she can lose while still being healthy. By the way, she had an ED in the past so i do need to be mindful and patient about her caloric intake.
Ill have to add more flexibility to our workouts.

Strength fitness reduces period intensity as well, and there are obvious other benefits -- hormone harmony and energy are some examples.

Didn't mention: the key to burning fat and not muscle is plenty of protein. The oft-listed amount is .7-1g per lb. of bodyweight.

Thank you for the picture cutie. Super hot.

this. A lot of people underestimates metabolism and think of it as like a meme.
See Ultimate Diet 2.0 for the last phase of cutting. Cutting really sucks for the last 3-5% bodyfat you're trying to lose. Go hard with a program that just lasts a handful of weeks and be done.

manlet insecure about women literally looking down on him detected
My girlfriend linked me a chart and told me she was normal when I was making fun of her because she was fat.
She is 5'3" and apparently around 120, which is in the normal range.
What do I tell her? Is she right? She's got a big gut and fat around her chin.

dude... she's had an ED? you should be careful man. That ain't easy to recovery from no matter how long it's been. I know cus I had a girlfriend that had an ED and she relapsed many times trying to get fit
>>35591110
Bitch I was at 125 while 6'1, it's not dangerous unless you take it very far. Tell her to stop being a self-conscious cuck and you're fine
