That is true, esp sauces and gravy when you eat out. And baked goods and dessert too. I don't take them as far as possible as I don't really enjoy eating them.

Like you, my chai png is pretty plain, no sauce. But I take a lot more lard and oily meat than you.

Grilled pork belly with lettuce and raw garlic is heavenly. Pork lard in my bah chor mee or fish soup is yummy. Skin is my favorite part of the chicken & duck. Chicken wings I can devour a lot in 1 seating. Steak is juicy yummy. 

So no wonder still have tummy fat.

Ya no wonder you have tummy fat lo. 😅

Like karate i guess. All that banging would have toughened his bones there. Though what is the purpose unless he is into MMA or other kind of sparring.

Or maybe it is a type of qigong like those iron balls exercise  Looks very painful but will turn you into either sex superman or a eunuch.

Sometimes the protruding tummy is not really due to fat but our bad posture (protruding butt and tummy, i.e. pregnant pose) from too many hours sitting down and crouching over laptop. Glutes, hamstring and hip flexor all optimized into sitting pose so that when standing, the tummy sticks out.

There are many youtube videos on how to correct this but needs patience and constant practice.

It's common for men also to put on visceral fat. This is even more unhealthy than the subcutaneous fat on the belly.

I thought a sign of one having visceral fat is big belly.. It's like those skinny guys, the the belly big big,...

i have quite a bit of belly fat. Haha.

But it's because of decreasing testosterone levels as we age and of cos metabolic intake excess.

 Asians have more visceral fat compared to caucasians. Hence our unhealthy BMI of >23 instead of 25.

@Ender Can't really tell unless you pinch or grab. Subcutaneous is outside, so if you can grab and pinch and it feels soft, that amount is the subcutaneous... but if the remaining bulge is hard and under the abs muscles, that is probably the visceral. Alternatively can use those body composition scales to weigh and check. The ones with handles to measure are more accurate.

Skinny means no hard labour. Belly means everyday eat full full. Good life.

Decreasing T, but stress and lack of time after having a family also pile on.

I notice those fit men in their middle age mainly old bachelor or married but childless.

Those middle age men with families and kids most likely don't have time to exercise and workout.  Their workout probably doing groceries, fetching kids and house work. Thus have belly.
