Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Almost everyone (even the most dedicated gym rats) deal with love handles—those stubborn pockets of fat that sit around your midsection. We know you work hard to keep your body in top physical shape, but sometimes diet and exercise alone can’t solve all your body’s problems. Our solution?

It’s somewhat ironic that the areas stubborn of fat around your midsection are referred to as love handles, considering rarely anyone loves them. Many people push themselves twice as hard during their workouts and become extra careful about their diet, just to trim this stubborn area down. Although it is important to keep a healthy lifestyle, in the case of love handles, these efforts may be going to waste. Through kinesiology and modern science we can now see why love handles exist—and it’s all down to our anatomy. The development of love handles can be caused by lack of exercise, increased stress, or poor sleep; however, they are also affected by genetics, aging processes, and fluctuations hormone levels. The midsection of our bodies also houses a large number of fat cells, which makes it a convenient area for the body to dump excess triglycerides, the form fat takes when stored. Simply put, fat particles are always looking for fat cells to settle into and call home, which is why you’re most likely to put on weight in area dense with cells, such as your midsection.
The way our bodies burn fat also contributes to why it can be so difficult to shed love handles. Ever notice when you start to lose weight, your face is the first area to slim down? Or that once you’ve put on some weight, your face is the last place to show it? This is no coincidence. According to Dr. Wayne L. Wescott, instructor of exercise science at Quincy College, our bodies lose fat in the reverse order that we gain it. Since our midsections are comprised of so many fat cells, this is usually the area we gain weight first, making it also the last place we will lose said weight. For even fittest of people this makes love handles one of the hardest areas to slim and tone.
