A member asked:
Hi docs, would i lose pelvic fat if i do squats and deadlifts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May tone but that : Doesn't necessarily mean you will lose fat in the pelvic area. Spot fat loss does not occur naturally. By losing weight in general some may be pelvic fat. But, we don't get to choose what area of body fat is lost from. Eat healthy ; be physically active. Calories burned must > those consumed.
