Been in a cut for 6 weeks, very frustrated
Hi, i'm a 23yo male and i "recently" started a cut after a bulk. When i started to cut, I weighed about 90kg, and now i'm sitting at 81kg.
The problem is that my belly doesn't look changed at all. I lost fat in my face area, neck and upper body. From the waist down, almost nothing changed.
I'm 179cm tall and i have around (using us navy method) 17% bf. When i started i was around 22% bf
The fact that i still have love handles and loose belly, despite my efforts, makes me sad and angry. I workout for 8 hours a week and i plan to go on manteinance once i reach my goal
How can i fix this? Will it eventually go away naturally?
