trying to get lean

Kea_Lani Posts: 7 Joined: 2004/11/23	2005/01/02, 07:56 PM anyone have any suggestions on how to get lean and muscular? I'm not overweight or considered fat so I'm not looking for weightloss, but I would like to lose some body fat and get leaner. I've been told do lots of cardio, and lift weights, so I've been doing a 3-day split :- back/biceps; chest/triceps; legs/shoulders and aerobics on each day I weight train. I find I'm just putting on bulk under my fat - I'm not looking lean AT ALL. HELP...:( :dumbbell:

I've been cutting down on my portions and trying to get my 5-6 meals a day - fruits for snacks. Lots of water. I don't eat fast foods and I've been trying to include more vegetables in my meals. But I haven't really cut out any foods, just cut back by approx half. Could it be my diet?
