can i lose fat by weigh lifting?i was in my bulking up stage ,now decided to cut my food intake and want to shred all those fats. can i lose those fats without cardio ?my friend keep telling me that if i go for  jogging or swimming ill lose muscle is it true ?any tips guys,should i buy those fat burner stuff? Im 184cm ,my weight now is 89 kg from 80 kg 3 months ago.
need to get ripped for hari raya, is it possible to lose 5-10 kg before 10 September?

u dont need whey.

Assume u r taking 6 meals a day:

breakfast 3 eggs
mid - half can of tuna
lunch - meat + vege
mid - meat (or another half can of tuna)
dinner - meat
before bed 3 eggs

100g of meat = 30g of protein. so u only need 50g of meat, tats super little.

hard to tell actually...... it all depends on the quality of the food items
and by the way....
there's no need to complicate things with numbers.....
hit the target and you will know that it is enough by the effects....if not then increase the exercise or change the exercise or increase the protein

meaning no big reduction in the main energy source provider
eg : 2500 cal to 1200 cal...............

so your aim is to lose some weight and have muscle at the same time....
then have a diet with reduced carb, increased protein and
cross training

have minor tweaks here and there in the diet and exercise during the weight/muscle changes to compensate for the changing body needs as you grow muscle/lose weight

Bro, I think u can reach 80kg easily in 4-5months if you're really disciplined. I myself was about 103-105kg in January, and I went all the way to 78-79kg in May. Then I started taking whey (Nitrotech Pro Series to be precise) and now I'm around 84kg(last checked this morning). Didn't take any fat burners or supplements prior to my weight loss to 78kg. Just cut off rice all together and started eating oats/wholemeal bread/chapatti/mi hun for my carbo source. Then LOADS and LOADS of veggies, both green and coloured, as well as fruits, minus watermelon(sekali-sekala ok la) coz of the high sugar content. Then stop snacking!!! Haha
I used to eat all the kacang-kacang (not salted/sweetened/honey roasted) once in a while, my uncle used to buy in huge jars from a peanut packing factory in Singapore.
And gym lor! Joined one of those shophouse bodybuilding gyms back in JB and was though the proper techniques of working out. Happy to say it has all managed to work out nicely for me although it was really hard initially. Imagine being an overweight dude in a gym full of bodybuilders, damn malu man  . But they were nice and all willing to share tips 

Anyway, thought of sharing with u because I was also in the same boat with u and know how it feels like. So yeah, jia you!!

Added on July 14, 2010, 10:00 pmOh and anyway, have been reading this thread for quite some time, thanks for all the useful tips from the sifu's here. Haha

One question though,after loosing all this weight, I've got a lot of excess skin on my belly, and sadly loads of stretch marks. I managed to get rid(well still about 1/4 inch to go) of my "love handles" by doing the wood-chop exercise and the trunk rotator machine, Any suggestions on how to get rid of the stretch marks?
Of course, I've done my part and asked Uncle Google, and couldn't find anything substantial from any single website, just a lot of trial and error stuff. So yeah, if u guys could help give some suggestions, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks

Good job!! That shows that what you're doing is working, so keep it up!!

U mean those tiger and marie biscuits is it? Once in a while ok la, just don't make it  habit.
Actually nothing to be ashamed of man. I'm sure if u go there to work out, people would respect u rather than laugh at u. And if you're really serious and want to improve yourself, I'm sure the people/trainers there wouldn't mind giving u tips 

You've got a good frame to work with if u wanna put on muscle man, so don't let it go to waste. Just remember this pic, and view it again after 3-4months, you're gonna feel really good about yourself!

I wanna ask,is it good to eat pills such as meal supplement (SDII Slim diet 2)

Konsep PSMF(protein sparing moedified fast)

"Penurunan purata 1 minggu=3KG adalah pasti!!(jika setia pada syarat)tanpa perlu berlapar"

Is it good?

From personal experience, put on more muscle!!
