      Are they the last to go? I've been dieting down for the last 6 weeks and making great progress, except in my back, side, waist area. I know spot fat reduction isn't possible but is it genetics or what?

      Worst area for a guy man, that'll be the last place it comes off in most places. I know that feel. All you can do is keep cutting.

      Lower belly fat and love handles are generally the "stubborn fat" areas on men and thus the last to go, yes.

      I have love handles that drive me nuts also. I can see some reduction in them so far, but not enough for my liking yet lol.

      They are indeed the last place to go. On my cuts I can count all 6 abs before the last of that lower back fat finally goes away.

      It's really discouraging to see my back shot, when I'm seeing progress every where else. I guess I just need to keep on grinding and cutting away! Fugh!

      On the plus side you have a really good underlying base of muscle.
