Should I run more to match my caloric intake?
I'm 30, male, and my weight is ~185.
I'm currently weight training 6 days a week and doing cardio every other day. For cardio, I do the hill programs at 6.3 mph and for 33 minutes (which burns about 500 calories).
When I started exercising I saw a quick loss in fat, but since then (about a month), I've seen little progress in my belly/oblique fat. My current daily calories are ~1400 and it is a high-protein diet.
My question is: should I run more? I've been told that running reduces one's muscle, which is what burns the fat. Any advice would be so greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I'm not concerned about my weight, but just the fat collection in my gut. I'm of a skinny build everywhere else.

The reason you aren’t losing weight is because of your age. 185 Sounds perfectly fine to me, and it seems like what you are doing would surely lose weight. Instead of losing weight, just bulk up more, that what your BMI reduces and you look healthier and more buff
185? that sounds normal to me. just keep doing what ur doin in a steady patteren and ull b fine.
