SPOT REDUCTION MYTH OR FACT?
« on: April 06, 2006, 07:27:25 PM »
Can somebody help me out. I want my waist to go back down to 29 inches like it used to be but like an idiot I trained my obliques for one month and out they came :( Can I just twist with the bar for an hour to get rid of obliques?

whichever direction you did to train obliques, just do the same exercise the opposite way for reduction of target muscles.

Do you charge extra for that? Is that part of the standard priced package?

before you guys get too involved in this debate, our resident genius alexxx isnt talking about reducing fat.  he's talking about exercising a muscle with the intent to shrink it.



makes so much sense!  lift to shrink certain muscles, enlarge other ones.

no problem!  when i want to shrink my chest i usually do the opposite of bench presses i.e. bent over barbell rows.  thus the chest will shrink and change the proportion accordingly. 


i also do dips to shrink my traps and sometimes do hyperextensions to make my abs smaller.

Doesn't the greek chair swing and hang from the ceiling.  They have them at Balley's Alexxx, ask around.





seriously though


you just got fatter, they're called love handles not obliques.

I have seen your pics your pretty fleshy.  stop eating so much, then at least you will be ripped.  You can try to bulk but I guarantee that without gear you will never be big and lean.

Well I can garantee that I can. But I did build up my obliques :( my waist right now is 36 inches and it used to be 29. Are you saying that if I diet I could go back down to 29 like it was 3 years ago?

yes very easily.  come on do you really think that if you got lean you'd have that much extra muscle on each oblique.  That's just where men store fat.
