Spot reduction is a myth. The concept deals with the ability to burn off fat in a particular area only. E.g. a woman wants to lose fats only on her hips and not her bust. It is impossible. The person tries to achieve this by only working the area in question; for example, doing a thousand crunches won't make your abdominal shredded. The important fact is to know that fat belongs to the whole body and is not attached to the muscle underneath. Thus particular training muscle does not affect the fat on top of it. Fat loss occurs only as a result of increased Basal Metabolic rate. The weight training program combines cardiovascular training plus control over your eating to achieve fat loss in the entire body and not just in the area you think you need to lose.
