You should first of all, start from the top down. Also, Work out at HIGHER INTENSITY! It has been proven that a higher intensity and a shorter time builds bigger muscles.This will make you look slimmer. Start from your shoulders, since they have little fat. Next day, work your legs. Then, have a rest day. that muscle that you should build should burn fat on your upper back, chest, and upper arms. When they are ready to be worked, work them! 1 day, work all the new muscles that have lower fat levels, the next day, review previous body areas and your legs. Then, Rest Day. When your ab fat has diminished a bit more, work them, review all other parts, the next day, rest. You should not work a body part to the maximum potential without losing fat! Remember to do Cardio.
