If your main focus is to lose fat, gym isn't going to help much. You'll need to manage your calories first.

Any suggestions how to do that would a simple calorie counter app work

Zumba, aerobics, plyometrics, go on treadmill for hours... Dont lift a single weight as you will put back on the same weight u r trying to loose. U can still keep ur eatin habits as before or even eat more kfc and doubles once u doing all the exercises as mention but i repeat ...DO NOT TOUCH A WEIGHT...EVER.

You can check what your macros/caloric needs are via the IIFYM calculator.

I monitor my intake via myfitnesspal app on my phone which is pretty handy.


For exercise you can look into a beginner bodybuilding program like 5x5 or AllPro (so many options to look at).

Use this site to calculate your caloric needs: http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm

Use a food scale to help calculate the calories in the foods you eat. Quick way to reduce calories is to cut off sweetened drinks and sugary snacks. Reducing other carbs will always help. More meat, veg, less bread, rice roti.

thanks guys so simply watch what i eat and spend an hour on the thread mill right

[salvation4U]

I ran 5km in about 30mins this evening which I think is not too bad considering I couldnt run 1km without gasping for breath 2months ago

Basically I do some stretching first then walk for couple mins then run/jog..

I feel so better when finished apart from being exhausted..

[nervewrecker]

So thats the new Powerade. How does it taste?

[salvation4U]

it does taste better than gatorade

lol good to know

[pugboy]

them thing loaded with calories similar to sweet drink, a 30min run should not require any calorie replenishment
drink water instead

[Trini Hookah]

Coconut water for the electrolytes

[VexXx Dogg]

Coconut water is great instead of them *ade sugar loaded crap. If you want a good, low cal, post workout recovery drink check out MP Amino1.

5 cals per serving, decent price and helps with recovery and rehydration (placebo?)

Flexible eating FTW!

Approx 2 weeks so far and I feel better ON A CUT. I've dropped weight and I still get to partake in food that I like.

I've fallen short of my goal on two days so far.

This is my first attempt at tracking what I eat, prior my diet wasn't anything special. I now realise I was eating WAAAY less protein than the recommended 1g/lb of body weight.

During the first few days I felt tired and was lusting after food during my work day but realised I had to have a HUGE meal at night because of chinksing during the day. Plan is to distribute more calories throughout the day even though that huge meal at the end felt like a daily reward. I keep a bag of whey in my work drawer.


I urge anyone willing to experiment, buy a food scale and give it a try. Hard gainers may realise just how little they're eating and our bigger brethren may realise a better way to redistribute their calories and still lose fat.

This food weighting is addictive.

[VexXx Dogg]

eh weighing food, but going on a hard cut for a couple months to break a plateau.
The odd thing is, I can vary my current diet between 2500-3000 cals per day and not gain weight. I'm stuck at 170 / 12% bf on omron.

Trying to lean the firetruck out, so I'm down to ~1500 cals / day (~40/~40/~20 macros). Taking Saturday as cheat with a 3000 high carb refeed day/ mega training session.
Still balanced weight training and cardio.

We'll see how that goes. I have badmind on my side, so me eh worried about breaking the plan

[Conrad]

Wow, that's pretty low.

How do you know how many calories you're eating without weighting though?

[VexXx Dogg]

measured (not weighed) portions, online calculations. It's a big cut from my normal diet, so even with a ~200 daily cal variance, I'll still have a major cal deficit.
Only going that low for a 3 month to give it a proper chance, I think that's the minimum amount to judge any effort.
Trying hard to attack this midsection problem

[pugboy]

allyuh see pics of LeBron ?
man on paleo diet looking ripped

[Conrad]

Turned down a box of my favourite food last night - Chinese Food.

Feel like a boss this morning

#turndownforwhat

Anyone did the mp cla-core and carnatine stack???

Tried it a couple times, no major difference.
For me the two factors with the biggest impact on body composition are diet and exercise.


As far as cutting supps, most are 'crutches' and do more psychologically than physiologically. I used it to help me with my diet early on, but in all seriousness spend your money on a good protein and maybe a multi if your diet is heavily restricted.

Half way on topic:

Wanna know if to make the trip. Just happened to see like 6 pieces at massy stores for just under $50.00 and picked up two packs.

Tilapia tastes nasty imo

[nervewrecker]

I like how it tastes. Does bake that and eat with pasta for protein and carbs. Lol

I'm currently prepping a guy for contest. Here is a preview of his bicep last night, he has been training for less than 2 years thus far. One of the few guys who squeezes every last rep, follows his macros to a tee and really and truly carries out the lifestyle. Together we put together all the diet plans, workout routines, cardio, posing routines, pre contest diet, carb up approach.

Real dedication, real results. Im so surprised to see his so dry already with that physique.
