ok let me tell you a bit of my self before.
i'm 21,and i've been a martial artists for about 7 years. I recently decided to add some mass so i started lifting weights 6 days a week for about 3 months now.. now i've seen some tremendouse muscle mass gain..in my chest , arms and legs.. however, the mid section is the problem area.
i go notice my abs getting harder .. but i got about 1/4" of fat on top of it and i can not get rid of it..

i do take protein and creatine after every work out wich is about 9pm every night.

can anyone guide me to some direction to get rid of some fat

thank you so much

I cannot stress enough the importance of diet. Eat low calorie foods, but decrease calorie intake slowly. Too fast and your body will go into survival mode and start burning muscle as well. Also up the amount of cardio you do each week and change it up to prevent you body from getting used to the excercise.
