I workout daily for 90 minutes from past 8 months which include cardio and weight training and follow a very healthy and nutritious protien based diet with specific calories intake but still I am not able to reduce my body fat. The workout I follow is also of high intensity and I also include vegetables, fruits and boiled chicken in my diet. Even though the weight has reduced a bit over time but the upper body fat is still very much the same. I do not take any supplements except multivitamins I really want to develop a lean body and I am working out really well for it but the results are not upto my expectations, please recommend some changes/suggestions that would help me to accomplish my physical goals. Thank you.

Hi, When you do very high intensity as you say you are doing, you would surely have reduced fat percentage at the same time you would have built up muscles which would be contributing for your adament weight. By high intensity work outs you build muscles and tendons to increase weight. Hence you should go by the percentage of fat and muscle in your body and not by the weight.
