Lose fat while building muscle

[adrianmerino]

I started working out almost a year ago. I've noticed big changes in my physique but I still see some fat on my body that I'd like to get rid of. I'm not sure how much body percent fat I have but I'm 18 years old, 6'1" and 188 lbs. The thing that really concerns me is that I have fat in the area where my chest connects with my arm/shoulder, basically under my armpit and where my nipples are. It's like wrinkled fat, it's not as bad as it used to be but I would like it all to go away. I've been working out 5 days a week with what I think are normal routines. chest/back, bis/tris, shoulders/traps, legs, etc. (each being different days). I've considered running and I've maintained a good diet. I just don't know what to do anymore. Everyone tells me to run but I can't find the time but if that's the only solution then I guess I have no choice but to make time. I play volleyball for my university and we practice 3 nights a week. I would love any feed back at all. Ask all the questions you'd like as well.

I'd had the same problem. I was doing mild cardio once a week. I started doing HIIT cardio 3x a week on what used to be my "off" days, now the fat is starting to drop.

Thanks man. I'm going to have to start doing more cardio then I suppose

[adrianmerino]

Anyone else?

Yeah HIIT is good to burn fat expecially for you because it doesn't consume too much time. Try it just like 3x a week for like 10-15 minutes, if you have more time than try and go a little longer...
