What gets lean first?
« on: June 08, 2009, 12:42:14 AM »
When you diet down what gets lean first on you?  On me it's my legs and face that become lean long before the rest of me.

Are you really going to argue against this? Everyone loses fat in the same manner according to you?
I hate the State.

Thank you my good man.  I took no pleasure in being so harsh but sometimes you just have to drop the hammer.  You have shown me your true character by not getting mad and attempting to attack me.  Your loyalty will not be forgotten.

Everything shrinks but the midsection for the first week or two.  This is the shittiest part.  I look worse two weeks in. 

Back fat will never go unless I decide 120lbs is a good look for me.

Clearly superior Turkish genetics play a role here.

Well superior beings like us must have one flaw, otherwise everybody would hate us even more so.

No I am not going to argue this

The very intention of the thread was to find out individual differences in noticeable fat loss so the very concept of difference is already assumed then you come along and state the obvious

Did you listen to that interview with Lyle McDonald by Dave Palumbo on rxmuscle?  He talked about unique fat loss patterns experienced by women and he was saying how often women can get very lean up top and gain fat below in the same process. Research showed that fat cells can actually transfer in women

I thought that was very interesting

Missed that one...most women have a hard time getting the lower body lean.  I don't have a problem getting lean everywhere, it just takes longer for the lower body, and I have to get to an overall lower level of BF to lean out my legs... I have a hard time believing that fat cells actually transfer from one area to another.

What happens to your upper body while you are getting your legs so lean. Does it get leaner or do you lose a lot of fullness and possibly some definition?

My boobs dwindle away to nothing...like from a D cup to an A cup (but they come back pretty quickly). 
I definitely lose some fullness in my upper body and possibly some size, but not definition, any my upper body conditioning gets pretty crazy.  My chest, bis, and tris are striated.
