Fitness - muscle and fitness, fitness plan,...

Nice! I recently broke the 8:30 mark for the first time myself.

I'm overweight and have been for a while, so I don't really have that much of a "success story", but I recently broke a personal record. I ran a mile in 9:37 when my previous record was somewhere around 10:30.

im joining you brother, i start gym this month got my diet planned. Just need the inspiration to keep it going

Our words should not matter. Our stories should not matter. What we did to get fit should not matter. They're our stories and can never be the same as yours, go, find you own words and create your own story.

bye bye

gib me original pic plz

I prefer Taco Bell and Del Taco. Fake Mexican food is my favorite fast food. But I think McDonalds is pretty good too.

i don't mind McDonald, its ok

Honeycrisp Apples master race.
Pros:
1: incredibly juicy
2: crunchy and crisp
3: sweet, but not sickeningly so
4: good texture to the flavor
5: medium to medium-large size
Cons:
1: Expensive
2: Real Honeycrisp Apples are somewhat season-locked.

Apples. When I eat an Apple I eat the core and all.

orange is best fruit

Looks like it's just the two of us. Food thread's disbanded

poke board was okay with it I guess

Hue. If we can get more people, we need to try it on /anime/, I've heard that they're very nice people

Watermelon all the way nigga

Bananas are pretty tasty

Hi chewy

What are you doing on food thread?

the only way to reduce fat on any body part is to reduce your overall body fat percentage

working your obliques will just give you bigger obliques which will make your love handles stand out more

Run. Running solves a lot of problems.
Also, if you are going for like a 6 pack remember, abs are made in the kitchen. In order to get one of those sexy abs you need to watch what you eat hardcore.

Do some core exercises.
Deadlifts, Side planks, Barbell Side Bends work the Obliques really well.

1. Heat up your body in an oven
2. Use turkey baster with sharp tip to suck fat out of body
3. Get out of oven
4. Enjoy life in the fastlane/burnward

Make sure you're getting enough protein n shit. You need nutrients for gains. You need rest for gains. Rest is where your muscles rebuild and grow.
Work out often, find a split and stick to it. Take in enough protein to build your muscles. Sleep well so your body can recover.

Lift more often, eat more food

Insanity will help burn calories, you need to make sure you don't eat more than you did before. You're likely going to be more hungry, but fight it off. Calorie count is what determines weight. Insanity is just a way to burn calories (and start getting in decent shape.)
You could just eat less, but that's probably unrealistic since you already said you don't eat a ton.

I'm actually less hungry, well at least for now, only been doing this for a week and a half, but I'm eating right, even less than before, and more fruit, soup and veggies along with the rest...

You need to diet to lose weight.

I am, I don´t really eat that much( I mean I don't "over eat", I eat in average proportions and balanced meals) and I am currently eating enough to burn more calories than those I intake. I just needed to be more active

I've heard only good things about Insanity

The only differences I can think of, is that your feet may hurt a bit, you may feel a bit clumsier whilst running and that you won't be used to the weight of boots. Although that will all go away in time.

so i can jog in boots without any new risk of injury?

Doing decent.

Former fat bastard @ 5'10" 230 lbs at start of the year. I was eating 2000 calorie fast-food dinners at 5pm, going home, eating another dinner at 8, and snacking on chips and candy until 2am.

Now am 160 lbs eating a mostly vegan diet (no its not out of a bleeding heart for the animals welfare, it's just for health reasons). Need to figure out how to gain some muscle while still losing what gut fat I have left, which is hard since there's so much conflicting info out there.

you cant lose fat and gain muscle at the same time. You either do one or the other.

the 1st link doesnt work.... how do i find a calculator like that?



and you say to lower the calorie input by 500-700 calorie are there any good websites that will tell me how many calories each food is?

just google it, you should get like 9000 results

i dont know what to google... i mean what words do i put in? (im not a native speaker btw)

and while we are on the subject you say in the original post to use the treadmill and run but can i use the epileptic machine instead? and would it make any difference?

Yes Vern?

What should I do with this epileptic salad?

I don't know, do you have any ideas?

I was thinking of making some seizure salad! Play me off Johnny!

fuck you man.

What kind of results are you looking for?

Another thing I'm unable to decide. I want to lose a bit of weight, fat, and then build muscle again.
Thinner, leaner, but at the same time I want bigger shoulders and a fucking incredible back.
The losing weight will be fine. Skipping 45 minutes a day by the end of summer will ensure I'm back to 10% body fat.

1. Do your cardio
2. Workout with (mostly) 3 sets of 8 reps for each workout (at least for a month). This is a very solid rep range for bulking/building muscle to look good. I would suggest using little rest time (max 60 seconds between sets) to get a cardio workout during lifting. This will help you lose weight a bit faster.
3. Make sure your protein intake is high. If you try to lose weight and build muscle, you will need a lot of protein to keep your muscles strong.
4. Eat anywhere from 1500-2000 calories per day (unless you have a slow/fast metabloism, in which case eat a bit more or less). I would suggest eating a bit more on cardio days to make sure you don't lose muscle.

Those are general guidlines that I use for myself and, although you may not notice any extreme results in a small amount of time, the results will come. If you would prefer to have more noticeable results at first, do more cardio and eat a bit less. You may lose a bit of muscle, but enough protein will prevent any serious issues and you will likely notice your weight loss sooner than you would notice anything with the more balanced approach. If you go weight loss first, you can eat a bit more when you start to gain. This will likely make you gain a bit of fat, but you should gain muscle as well, and you can slim a bit whenever you would like.

Oh, and I haven't gone to school for this kind of stuff, so don't blame me if you don't get results you were hoping for. My knowledge comes from my workout experience, including periods of being very overweight and others where I have been quite fit.

It's alright, I know very basics, and I look decent after going to the gym after a couple of weeks, so as long as I keep it up I'll be golden.

Thanks man!
