Add some Russian twist in there while doing your sit ups. Stand side knee crunches too, crunches while doing a ankle touch.

Is if it makes a difference and good luck and I’m right there with you

Calorie deficit to reduce excess body fat. After that genetics play a large role (roll?).

Some people will have love handles at much lower body fat %s than others. It’s purely down to genetics/luck sadly.

You can't lose fat off one part ofthe body, it's a total myth.

Fat is lost evenly over the whole body, diet is the best way. 80% kitchen, 20% gym.

Try trusting hips forward during squats .

And twists ( bar on shoulders keeps your hips squat and rotate upper half )

Good luck

thanks for the tips I take it mixing your sit up routines would help rather than repeating the same one each time

I was about to add that, healthy diet, exercise etc is great and important but loving your LHs a little is fine too.

Diet,

Reduce- sugar, transfats, satuarted fat,alcohol, refind carbs

Increase- proteins, drink more water, oats

Tips, dont totally cut out carbs or natural fats, natural fats are important to your bodily balance- cutting them out can cause your body to convert proteins to fats.

Dont go mad on eating fruit, people seem to think oooh diet.. ill increase fruit intake... the issue there is fuit contains a massive amount of sugar
