I am 20 years old and until the age of 18 was very unfit and overweight. Since then i have dropped to a healthy weight (through diet and mainly cardio exercise) which i have managed to maintain.

The problem is - I have a little loose skin around my belly and chest and would really like to tone up this whole area. I have recently started training with weights 3 times per week and taking 2 whey protein shakes per day. ( I still eat very healthily )

Can anyone suggest any additional - specific exercises for toning up and stripping excess fat from these specific areas of my body??? any help would be greatly appreciated.

My stats are:
5 feet 11 inches tall
168 lb


Thanks in advance

- 260 reps for chest and only 136 for back, insane should be the other way around
- no leg work, insane
- volume is too high with too many isolation type exercises for my liking
- 80%iof exercises should be compounds at the very least and closer to 90 i think
- you could use a 3 x week full body type program i think
- add actual food to 2nd meal ecspecially protein
- add another meal like your dinner fater training or cut it in half and half fordinner and half after training
