I guess the fact that the body fat I have seems to collect in undesirable places like pecs and bellybutton area, really isnt uncommon... but up until now I've not really gotten serious about trying to tone and shape these areas to all they can be.
overall goal is to have a toned and flat stomach as well as (decently) shaped pecs and arms (I'm not trying to body build, I just want something defined) I keep reading about finding a balance between how much cardio you use, how much working out you do, and how much and what types of food you should eat.
I try to run 3-4 times a week for about 30 mins, and then i've started working out every other day doing some beginner sets of the muscle groups I'm trying to tone up.
I dont know much about what I'm supposed to be eating, other than high protein and low fat and drinking lots of liquids. Thats about it, I know its a commitment, and I've finally gotten the resolve to follow it through.
I feel kind of lost in a really big sea of information, and dont know where to even start. I've included some recent (taken a couple days ago) photos of torso, so people can see where I'm at and what I'm talking about so that they might could help me out in pointing me where to focus on.
I guess thats it! if there is anything anyone can give advice on, I would be very appreciative.
Thanks!
Emory
