Weightlifting. Sprinting.

But healthy eating is never about reducing food intake to begin with.

Losing weight doesn't require exercise.

Smoking or drinking don't exactly prevent one from losing weight as well.

It all starts with the diet.

These are the estimated figures for an hour of walking.. Do they look promising?

Added on May 6, 2012, 10:58 pmThe main issue about dieting is the misconception that it requires food reduction.
It's actually about eating the same quantity for satiety, but changing the selection of food.

Okay. Actually it's pretty easy. Diet can be very satisfying too.

Example of just one meal: Roasted chicken + broccoli + carrots + natural (sugarless) yoghurt.

That's what you should be eating, as opposed to, take for example, curry mee.

muscles are grown in yhe kitchen...

Aminophylline Creams seem promising for spot reductions.

Tim Ferriss:"Based on my experience, using a 2% aminophylline cream for two and a half weeks, applied twice daily, accelerates thigh fat-loss more than 10 times compared to a control."

can i make my body full of holes by applying spot reduction cream on very specific hole here and there?

then I will have a tummy which looks like moon surface

Probably. Try it out and give us a report, haha. But do keep proper records, for future evaluation.

Well if spot reduction works that well it shud be possible right? and I can customise the contour, the size based on dosage I apply too..

Woi, don't spam la, this thread is about weight loss, not your fetishes lol.

Was 88, currently 80
Planning to lose weight and bulk up at the same time
My Goal :- Beach Body/Model Body
Day 1 : Biceps, Back, Abs, Cardio
Day 2 : Triceps, Chest, Shoulders, Cardio
Day 3 : Legs, Cardio
Day 4 : Same as day 1
Day 5 : Same as day 2
And so on
My resting day isnt set properly. If i feel like resting on that day, i'll do so. But max 1 rest day per week
My workouts are :- 4 sets, 8-10 reps. 3 exercises per muscle group. So total 9 exercises per day.
Cardio = Cycling studio. At least.. 40 minutes?
5-10 minutes max incline jog on treadmill before weights
Warmup -> Weights -> Cardio
Am i doing the right thing?
Thanks!

Hey guys,

I don't know if im getting on correct track or not.Please review on my routine please.
Currently focusing on Weight Loose.

Weight - 130kg
Height - 170cm +-



So guys,do you think its actually worth and correct what im doing ? I just aiming to burn lotsa fat before my brothers marriage which is in Jun end.

Well i think you're lacking on fibre and you gotta reduce on carbs buddy

My routine :- 10 minutes wamup, incline 15 speed 6
Weights for an hour, 9 exercises total, 3 muscle group
Lastly, cycling classes RPM for 50 minutes
I got rid of what, only 8kgs in 3 months?
So yeah, losing weight is a slow process... Or maybe i've been eating too much
Dont forget to minimize meal portions. Take 6 meals per day to increase your metabolism rate, it works!
Oh, and drink lots of water too!

Good luck! Congrats on your brother's engagement

Thanks for your advise buddy.
Really appreciate it.
Can suggest me a perfect 6 meal a day ? Sorry im too noob on this.
This is my 2nd week on gym,meanwhile parents thinking that im forcing my self everyday working out.
But the intention makes me cut down most of my craving food etc Ice Cream,Chocolates,and even Rice.

Im a weight pounder about 130kg. I eventually loose around 2-5kg by eating oats .

As instructed by my coach,there no point for me to carry weight at the moment because he wants me to loose weight .
Is that my workout routine is a proper one ?

I cant advise you on the perfect 6 meal a day cause me, myself dont even consume 6 meals per day, sorry!
Reduce on sugar and salt
Celeb Fitness gym trainer told me to not focus on your weight loss, focus on your appearance and body fat
Cause you can lose 3 kgs of WATER in one day, intense cardio
Which i find his statement pretty true
I'm not so sure abt your situation, i'm weighing 80kgs, im overweight according to my BMI
I asked CF trainer what should i do?
He told me to focus on weights, cause he wants me to convert my fats into muscles
So i'll suggest you to lift weights as well. I used to spend 3 hours in the gym last time before i started working
But the most inportant thing i've learned from the gym for losing weight is to keep your heart rate constant
What i mean by is after warmup, lift weights. Dont take a break too long, try your best to avoid your heart rate from dropping
Eventually you're burn fats. Try googling on the AFTERBURN workouts too!
P/S i'm not 100% correct, this is based on my experience only. I might be wrong too

That statement is wrong....fats and muscles are two different tissue...they don't convert to each other...you either lose this and gain that..or vice versa..

But about his statement about weight loss is correct...one should focus on losing fats but not weight

Thanks sir.
May i know the cardio im doing currently are for loose weight or fats ?
Far as i know,loose fats=weight are almost the same thing as you loose fats it also loose weight.

Correct me if im wrong.

True...but it is also can be lose lean muscle mass = weight....and you don't want that to happen.

Cardio will make you lose fats but it is not that superior. To lose fats more effective you need to increase your lean muscles mass because the more muscle mass you have, the more effective your body burn fats.

If I were you, I'll take away treadmill. You will hurt your knee alot. do other type of cardio such as crosstrainer which is more knee friendly, or rower. Then I will replace 100plus with only plain water. 100plus is just a sugar drink. Then I will start doing weight training. and end with some cardio for 15 to 20mins. Use your energy for weight training to increase your muscle mass, don't waste energy on cardio too much.

As for your diet, I notice you have a lot of carbs in there(such as bread, rice, chapati, etc). Reduce those and replace with more protein source such as tofu, eggs, and such. Oh, take away sunquick as well. Only take it during your cheat meal but not normal meal

oh yea...don't skip meal, you must eat to lose fats!

more or less like this....i might be wrong but that's what i'd do if i were you.

Thanks playerseeker.
It helps me alot.
Let me try on changing cardio method tonight.
And yes knee hurts alot on 2nd week.I will try on that constrainer tonight.
