hello! I'm back! After shed off 20kg and maintain the same weigh till few months back gained some 10kg and lost another 3kg, now working hard to lose off 10kg smile.gif

Now trying on weigh instead of cardio, I get bored of cardio and I can't gain anything from it, other than stamina getting better. At least after weighing, I get a little shape wub.gif

For ladies I always believe that cardio + weights is a good combination biggrin.gif

unfortunately I'm bored of cardio, I find it not benefiting me at all when it comes to weight loss  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

I do go for marathon just to run for charity or fun but it's like only few times a  year tongue.gif

Yeah depends on individual liking. Personally enjoy both cardio and weights, it's more fun to have a mix of both thumbup.gif

checking in due to i'm also trying to lose weight.

would jogging on a treadmill have the same effect as jogging outside?
would like to know if there is any difference in term off effect.
so far i would do 30 minutes with 5.5 speed on the treadmill.

Trying jogging because you're looking into losing weight? What's your weight at the moment?

Can jog at 5.5 speed ah? I find it slow, that's my rest speed.

If it's to lose weight via cardio, HIIT workout is more effective. But if you still prefer treadmill then you should make it interval instead. For example, jog at a higher rate of say, 9kmph for 3min and then slow it down to 6kmph for a slow jog or brisk walk for a min or so and then hike it up again back to speed 9. Doing this continuously will allow your heart rate to go up. It's more effective than walking steadily/ same speed at 5.5kmph.

my current weight is 110kg..

what's the max heart rate?
i tried 7.0 with elevation of 9.0 for 2 min and my heart rate goes to 176bpm..

If you're 110kg, I don't encourage you to run so much as you might feel pain on your knees with constant running. Go light on treadmill such as brisk walking.

Max heart rate? Not the most accurate but try this: http://www.digifit.com/heartratezones/maximum-heart-rate.asp

It's different for everyone.

Yeah you can do interval with brisk walking instead of jogging. Go light but with a certain intensity to bring your heart rate up.

what is ideal weight for some one whose height is 180 cm ?

my current weight is 78.9kg (Previously was 95.6kg), took about 6 months to lose 16.7kg.

is the progress consider normal or slow ?

You should measure through ideal body fat % instead of weight. This chart may be a good guide http://www.builtlean.com/2010/08/03/ideal-...rcentage-chart/

Honestly in my opinion, 6 months for 16.7kg is good.
