Yohimbine and stubborn fat

[Serpentarius]

Ive read the reviews ad nauseum on bb.com and other sites, but does the stuff REALLY work? I also find the data to be skewed based on the fact that if you are already in a deficit, then you will lose fat. My whole body is relatively lean except the damn love handles. I have to lose a solid 8 more pounds just to get them back down to a reasonable level again...feels like im cutting just for love handles than anything else.
Feels like i have to get to a stupidly low bf level just to make them go away.

Last year I gave a couple of bottles of yohimbine-HCL a shot. While I did get a little leaner than I ever have as a post-college adult, it's hard to say whether or not any of it was due to the yohimbine. I was at a reasonable deficit and doing 30-45 minutes of combined interval and steady-state cardio after dosage ~3X/week. Fasted. Pretty damn low-carb over all. So I have no clue.

In any case, it didn't work so magically well that I am going to use it this year. After I drop a couple lbs I am going to do the same SFP stuff, without the yohimbine/caffeine/L-tyrosine and see how that goes. It's not that the yohimbine was expensive, but I get all hyped up enough after intense interval work, and combined with the stims I was often wired well into what should have been sleepy time. I can't find myself sticking to a morning routine (which would solve that problem).

What it amounts to though is that most guys will have to get leaner in some areas than they ever thought they could/would/ever wanted to before that last bit in the lower abs and back-fat goes, yohimbine or no.

I think its different for different ppl. My brother and his friend once took some before a pretty tough wrestling practice and they said it made them feel really weird and they both ended up having to sit out during the entire practice. So i myself would stay away from it. But im the same way. My love handles r always the last thing to go. I need to be around 6-8% body fat for them to go away. I found that doing a lot of core work which involves rotation really helps in that area
