spot reducing via exercise is controversial, though there is now some evidence that spot reduction and utilization does occur at least to some extent from exercise. Though probably not to an extent where is noticeable except over a significant amount of time (generally not in the realm of most people experiences during-- "get in shape"-- "get abs"- type time frame)
in animals its been shown conclusively.
though using metabolic modifiers(ppar modulators and agonists, insulin sensitizers, aromatase inhibitors, steroids, etc-- a lot of these), transdermal(yohimbine) and site injected drugs(gh, pgf2alpha,etc) and even detergents (deoxycholate) are fairly well established for site specific fat loss in humans.
