The more info you can give me, the more specific info I can provide.

Strength Training - Fat loss & problem


Expert: John Izzo - 10/30/2007

Question
Hi. I am 6'3'' 200 lbs. I feel like i have a god build, but would like to get a
little more lean than I am without sacrificing any of my bulk. How can I reach
this goal?
Also...........My left pec is significantly larger than my right. What steps can I
take to correct this imbalance?

Thanks again,
Jordan

Answer
Jordan:
You can get leaner by incorporating some high intensity cardio intervals on off-days. Short (15 minutes) at a  high intensity - can be running, elliptical stepper, etc. Keep the heart rate high for that short period. Also, monitor your calorie intake. If you begin to lose bulk, stay with the cardio but add more calories to your diet.
About your pec...it could be a genetic predisposition, but I would recommend alot of unilateral flyes, presses, and focus on your weaker side.
Hope this helps. If you need more info, visit: www.standapartfitness.com
