Answer... hard consistant hi-pro lo-carb heavy gym routines with hi-intensity cardio twice pr week... plenty of water and quality rest... basically hard work and a diet that needs the mindset of a saint to stick too... we all have ABS already made! this is the way to reveal them to the world... FORGET steroids on this one bro it all boils down to the age old thing called HARD GRAFT... and once you have done it with these methods you will be the the proudest most self confident person on the planet... its worth the effort bro believe me the satisfaction feeling is untrue.

AAS or supplements are not magic pills and don't take the place of hard work, dieting, proper nutrition, a training plan, and rest. Belly fat has been directly linked to high concentrations of cortisol in the blood stream, so you may want to focus on finding a way to destress and detox yourself as well. HCG diets are gimmicks and in almost all of the cases weight lost (because you are only eating 500cals/day) is regained once you start eating properly again. Not to mention, a great majority of the weight lost is muscle mass.

maybe get bloodwork done to find out your estrogen and testosterone levels. If you have low t, that could be the reason you are having such a hard time losing weight around your waist.

Trust me man dont jump on AAS as a solution to BF. After my last knee surgery post college football, I couldnt do cardio or sports for 12 months and I gained a lot of weight. I got up to 18% bf and thought AAS would help. Against all the advice of guys like ones here, I took some "cutting AAS"... I gained weight. These compounds arent meant to take BF down. You add cutting compounds to enhance the affects of dieting and great workouts.

The best way to lose weight is what everyone is saying: jack up your protein, do cardio and avoid simple sugars. I know it sounds like what you have been doing but trust me take it up a notch. Its not easy but youll get where you want to be. Protein may sound like a muscle builder but is fantastic at taking bad weight off as well. Do HIIT training.... 1min sprints, 1 min walking for 30 min. Read up on it, you burn more cals during and after than just running or steady cardio. Avoid sugars like the plague. Believe it or not once you have been with out them for a while, you wont even crave them. Its gunna be hard at first but resist and it will be worth it later when you realize you feel better not eating crap like that. Try and take your cheat meal to once a month or once every 2 weeks. Its good to just eat a little crap once and a while so you dont fly off the handle and binge but just be careful. My cheat meal is a big ass steak, grilled asapargus, baked potatoe, beer bread. I mean really look at it and youll see I have maybe 75g of simple carbs, thats it. And I do this once a month. Just dont go into AAS until you have gone down more. You will only add more weight, get hungrier.

Your trainer is right in one regard mate. It only works when your metabolic rate dropps. Thats the only time you should have a cheat meal. Sorry to say it but if you are eating clean then you would be leaner that 19%. Have a good look at the types of protien you are eating. Stay away from processed meats as that is all shit. Do cardio and train hard in the gym. Now alot of people think they train hard but actually don't. If at the end of a work out you can still flex the muscle group you have trained then you havent hit it hard enough. THis will also burn calories mate. As for your shakes check out the amount of sugar in them as well as alcohol sugars. When you have coffee of tea no milk or sugar. Eat heaps of greens and salads as they are a negative calorie food and assist in fat loss. You cant have dressings on them though.

Also if your going to get some of your protein from a shake(I did say some not all) Try ISOPURE It has 0 carbs and is very thin. I make mine with 2 scoops of the Vanilla ISOPURE and 1 heaping tables spoon of Planters Natural peanut butter. I add water not milk. You only have to add around a cup of water. taste great and gives you around 58 grams of protein. I drink one 1st thing in morning , one before workout, and one after workout.

I would say a low dose AI and good diet is what you need.
Avoid estrogen, its keeping you fat

Only thing I would add to Finafan's statement is to stair step immediately upon waking on a empty stomach.

If you really eat clean no snacking not even a cookie at night or no carbs after 2:00pm it might be a genetic thing. I have said this before but will again and I swear by it. After dinner during summer I run 3 miles at the track along with wind sprints. I come home and drink a complex protein shake and nothing else before bed. My waist is normally 30 but get down to 28 during summer. I am small framed though but this has worked for me for years even now that dare I say it I am middle aged.

Try Fasting!!! Eat all your macros during a period of 8 hours every day, and do not eat nothing for the other 16 hours, 24hrs total. You can pick whatever 8 hours to eat during the day. Example from 11 am to 7 pm. Or like my wife does, from 7 am to 3 pm. It works fine for her thought. Hope this helps if not just drop it.

no milk, processed foods, avoid sodium(not necessarily associated with fat loss but will help with any excess water which can decieve you)if it grew from the ground, or it had a face...eat it.

-edit-
as far as a supplement for fat loss, throw some caffeine in there. research ECA or ECY stack...AAS for fat loss is a last resort..actually wouldnt recommend unless its for a comp.

DNP

j/k don't touch that crap
What's your cardio routine?

Raise your protein intake 450mg pr day. Get your carbs from green leafy vegetables.Eat every 2-3 hours taking in 50-60 grams of protein pr meal. Look at everything you take for sugar. Stay away from simple carb except right after a hard workout. Eat lean meats. I would add a starchy carb in morning to give you energy for the day. As far as cheating don't. Get on a stair stepper for 30-60 minutes a day. The hardest part is eating. Everything else comes easy. Go to ebay or GNC and get body fat calipers. They are cheap. When you find out your body fat then we can talk about AAS.
