Need tips from all them massive big guys/girls here DX

Im 21, 162cm, and weight about 57 kg, and I am dying to burn some extra fats at my bum that is making my bottom look huge.
My upper body is tiny but its my lower that makes me look utterly huge is some sort of way XD

I am planning to build up muslces too, but I need to ask what are your basic routine? My diet is going well that I lost 3kg in a week because of burst cardio and is trying to build mass on the upper body.

This is my meal everyday.

Breakfast : Fitness cereal + 2egg half boiled + Protein shake
Lunch : Rice +chicken + fish + fruits
Tea : Green Tea + Whole grain bread
Night : Normal family dinner (mostly, meat dinner) + protein shake


(body building wimmen ftw )

For female eh, we will wait LadyVanity to reply this thread

babes, REAL WOMEN LIFT!! welcome to the club!
no worries. its normal... we women are biologically designed and inclined to put fat on the lower belly and hips to protect the uterus and prepare for childbearing. we have wider hips and bums than men for this reason as well.

personally... i train one bodypart a day, once a week. not much cardio on manteinance phase - no more than 2 or 3 times a week... but on a cut i do cardio everyday.

Talk about women bb, i have been in TF jaya33 for more than 2 years, only last night i saw a lady squat. I respect her for that.

since you are building upper part, do upper body exercises more like ...
chest: bench press, flys, wider dips
Back: dumbell rows, pull down, seated rows
Shoulder: raises, presses
Bicep: curl
Tricep: tricep push down, barbell barbell extension

and do some lower body exercises for strength (4-6 reps) like squat, leg curl and extension. and you can build your calf if you want. do calf raise (15-20 reps).

XD well ok this is my routine for the past 3 weeks (kinda started really... ffff XDXD ........ and huzzah for free uni gym with complete machines woohoo)

(........... BUT THEN I SAW RESULTS ON MY BICEPS OMG =D =D)

the first week before I started gym routine my weight is about 64-65kg.
Then my routine goes like this (done 5 days a week since my uni gym closes on saturday and sunday cus ppl curi dumbells, curse those mat pits D<)


Cardio (done in a stadium nearby)
Sprint 100m 3x (yeah.. im a sprinter in my old days.... explains my big old thighs. =D)

(thennnn walk down to gym about 10 minutes away)


Dumbell Rows

3.5 kg x 12
5 kg x 12
7 kg x 12
10 kg x 8

Raises

5 kg x 12 (2.5 a bell)
5 kg x 8
7 kg x 12 (3.5 a bell)
7 kg x 8

Pull down

10 kg x 12
14 kg x 12
18 kg x 10

For lower body, I did squats with dumbell over shoulder (IDK WHATS THAT CALLED orz)

so its 4 reps

5 kg x 12 (2.5 a bell)
7 kg x 12 (3.5 a bell)
9 kg x 12 (4.5 a bell)
11 kg x 8 (5.5 a bell)


Mostly spend 1-2 hours in gym cus I have nothing better to do after class hahaha then go home do homework, masak clean house like every other woman does lolol.

So I guess that is what I do the most. And yeah, I got high metabolism and big appetite.

Here is how look after 2 weeks, i can see my biceps got into shape. (last time was. FLABBBBBBBBBBEEEEHHHH)

so here is my progress pics.

I dont know if this is relevant but I'm speaking from personal experience,

I was a reaaaallly skinny guy (still skinny actually), did a strength training programme and noticed some gains. However, did NOT see much gains in size especially in my arms, they were lagging, and so were other smaller muscles e.g. calf, shoulders. Point is, my strength training involving lifting heavy weights for lower reps with a lot of emphasis on squats got me growth but not much increase in size.. as compared to when I switched over to lifting for hypertrophy (regular 8-12 reps 3-4 sets) which got my arms a bit bigger so I didn't look like popeye with forearms bigger than arms..

Maybe you can try doing my compound lifts - squats, deadlifts, pullups, bench press, bent over rows.. the compound lifts build more overall muscle, which is what you need, more muscle, which will indirectly burn fat at a higher rate. The theory is more muscle, more fat burnt, over time. Clearly that your worry is that you'll have those biceps huge.. but mebe thats just during ur workout but I'm sure normal days it isnt like that... either way when your bodyfat% drops u sud look smaller overall

good luck!

ps: is that a cookie monsterz (as in cookie monsterz the dance group) T?

errr 3 weeks u wont see much results.
even for a guy 3 weeks is not enough to notice much results.
bodybuilding takes months and years to develop.
but u r doing just fine.
good luck...

thanks guys.

I vill werk hard!

personal insight -

when we lose weight n lift weights... like it or not we as women will lose breast tissue cos thats all fat. if you dont mind then its fine... but if it is as issue stay away from flat/decline bench work. always start with the incline bench. i never benchpress in my regular routine cos it made my chest deflate faster than a popped balloon. so it's all dumbell work for chest. i only bench occasionally for strength purposes.

arms - you will benefit more from doing big, compound exercises opposed to isolation work. try to incorporate chin ups, pull ups, close-grip benchpress and tricep dips into your arm routine.

Hi der

A caveat : Am not a bber, just a regular weight lifter currently on hiatus. Welcome to the iron world.

I personally started with strength building, compound lifts and improving techniques - mainly to avoid injuries with free weights. I'd suggest getting someone to check on your form before proceeding to add on extra plates

As LV mentioned here, boobies shrink when you lose fat - almost all professional female physique athletes hv implants since hving lean, mean bodies with perky ta tas (Cs and above) is close to impossible.

Btw big thighs will help a lot when you're carrying extra 10kg around during pregnancy So embrace your thighs

I had a cellulite problem before i stated work out. My buttocks grows enourmously huge. my thighs has cellulite marks all over, but after did some cardio i manage to lose some on i.

no wonder my boobs are shrinking "

my workplace "gym" only has a flat bench and dumbells available only in 3kgs (seems light) and 6kgs (too heavy) .. are flys the only thing i can do ?
im trying to get shrink the extra flesh (?) around the chest near the armpit ... should i be aiming to workout my chest, shoulders or just cardio ?

There is no such thing as spot reduction.

You can do dumbell press and pullover for chest on the flat bench besides flyes. Low carb diet is the key to fat loss.

Today did a 30 reps for lady squats.

And yeah I kinda need mah boobs shrinked a lil DX

Glad to have this thread here for females. i did my arms today EZ Bar Preacher Curl, Dumbell Curl,Dumbell Tricep Extension, Cable Tricep Pushdown, all 5 sets each. Hav a swig of protein blend shakes as post w/o.
Currently i try losing body fat lvl and kinda feeling tat boobs slightly shrinking

ok i am a guy, and my man boobs havent shrink

i want them to go away with my belly fats !!

4rings is right re spot reduction... the only way to lose "extra flesh" or fats from wherever you want it is to d cardio and watch ur diet. chest/arm workouts will only tone the muscles, but if theres a thick layer of fat covering you're not gonna see any "tone" at all no matter how many curls/presses you do!

but i have very adamant views regarding chest training for myself... ive tried practially every suggestion out there in desperate attempts to keep my boobies - not training at all... no more than 2 exercises... pressing exercises only.... no cardio on chest day... etc etc etc... been there done that. so i guess ive found a routine i can finally stick to and be content with. i do lots of incline work to "boost" up the chest area and to give the impression of a higher bustline. im not gonna say 4rings suggestion of flat benching is wrong... but personally it didnt work for me and i kept more "meat" on my chest area doing just incline work and several cable and machine movements. i do heavy pullovers.. but ive been told that cos it expands the ribcage (??) and widens the chest... the fat of the breasts becomes stretched even more over a wider area... becoming more flat.

but end of the day if you want something you gotta sacrifice something else, kan =/ sadness....

Added on August 3, 2010, 12:54 amimo men and women hv different bodies, different composition, tendencies to put on fat in different areas and different hormone levels.... hence training needs to be different too here and there cos the bodies respond differently.

i dono bout guys... but the NUMBER ONE boob shrinker = decline benchpress.
evil evil evil!! will never do another decline bench all my life!

not fair right... decline benching gives guys nice, sag-free and well shaped pecs... but not so for girls....

lol this thread officially for wimmenz!

Anyways.

I actually have a goal of shrinking my ladies abit because of crossdressing (as males) for events. (I cosplay like you do too, LadyVanity XD except, my characters mostly are males because of my..... manchin. been a tomboy all my life agagaga. DX)

Now I have to worry bit of my abs cus have been concentratin' on upper for this while.

...BACK TO SIT UPS!

So ladies, lets share our knowledge on wimmen body buildin'~

i used to run between 5-8k daily until i was forced to stop due to a knee injury .. so i've dropped my morning runs and the weight has come back on.. haihh ...i keep up with my weight training 2-3 times a week .. full body WO with dumbells and free weights (no machines over here) but im wondering if im wasting my time with weights since ive had to drop most of my running .. right now looking to drop body fat .. replaced running with that eliptical machine but its no replacement for my sprints

would skipping be any better ?

tried IF-ing which my friend used successfully but it doensnt agree with me .. so i guess im back to low carb

on another note .. does it ever offend you when you step into one of those public gyms and a guy hands you a 1 kg dumbell and tells you "girls shouldnt be lifting?"
