I have been having some nice results with fitness increase and fat burn since I got back into cycling 3 months ago. I do not expect too much, and try to retsrain my desire to burn myself out so the weight loss can be slow and more permanent (Well thats what I seem to have geaned from info so far).
In the 3 months i have gone from 96.5 kg (187cm) to 89kg and slowly falling.
It appears the first bit is easy (maybe a lot of water loss too), so getting to 93.5 was fast, then things slowed ( I'm still doing around 150km's per week MTB mixed hills/road).
What I would love to know is where the fat falls from , and is it only fat , does muscle diminish aswell as weight loss rates slow when the body becomes leaner.
Being ego driven to a point, I'm quite keen to see a bit more definition in the abdominal area, though it seems its the last place it wants to disappear from.As I am losing kg's, will my ab area slowly begin to slim, or do I have to focus with different excercise routines?
Very sorry for the rather layman language here, I'm a bit new to this.
Has anyone any comments/
Cheers , Craig.
