Hello I am 18 years old and have been lifting for 4 years now. I am currently an mma fighter in training For 3 with wrestling for 8 years, so I am constantly active and know how to cut weight. Every day is a work out. Mon. Wed. Fri. Are full body workouts from squats to benching and everything in between. Tues. thurs. are lighter days but more focused on toning. Every day is also vigorous abs work out day. I train every night for minimum of 4 hours for mma. This includes going live for 2 hours with 1 hour of technique and 1 of cardio such as stairs or the track before hand. My diet consists of 2 turkey wraps an apple and a ton of water each day. I also take whey protein, animal pack vitamin, a.p. stack, a.p. pm (a.p. = animal pack), along with hydroxy cut platinum, and alkiline 1500 each day. I recently introduced jacked, and pm powder which is also whey. That is all I consume each day no snacks other than an bandanna or extra apple. I for some reason cannot lose my belly, hips, and inner thy spare tires..... It is not as if they are surrounded in fat, but just enough to cover the abs and make the legs and butt look big. I just want to lose that final 20 pounds but I see no results. Every other area is riped accept for those areas. I even changed my work outs to favor those sections with no luck. I do not exceed 1400 calories with my food including all powders and pills. I know how to lift and do it properly, but it just isn't working out. Any advice would be appreciated now that you read my long explanatio.Statistics - 6Ɔ" 184 bench 275, and squat 315 3 sets of 10 normal per lifting day.

Lifting weights isn't the best way to cut fat, try replacing some of your toning sessions with more vigorous exercise. You said you already do some cardio, try adding more. I'm no expert, but that's the one thing I see here. You could always talk to a dietician or trainer too, they'd probably help a lot more than anybody here!

Full body work outs are not good for you. If you want to lose weight but be strong do back and biceps 1 day, chest and triceps the second say, and legs and shoulders the third, but take a 1 day break after that. Also, your body does need a little carbs for energy when you work out. Nutritionists say that you should eat 5-6 smaller meals a day if you want to stay fit.
