isn't weights more towards isolation? or you mean doing compound movements with weights?

compound is the way. Don't waste time doing isolation or targeted lifts.

Squat. deadlift are way to go

Anyway, should have said 'lol at jogging' not cardio.

lol, not sure what you meant. It's already proven that lifting weights can help you lose weights (that said, you need to check your diet as well).

Yes compound exercises like the big 3. Isolation exercises do help as well especially when it complements the big threes. So, don't forget to do those.

and go heavy on the big 3. Like really....heavy. Try look at the health and fitness section, they go heavy and there's a reason why.

Muscles burn fat alot faster. Hence weights = faster fat loos which is what u want. you dont want to be burning muscles.

Squats, deadlifts, clean and presses, romanian get ups...

From my experience, there are many ways to lose weight.

lifting, or simply hardcore cardio, all works.

It depends on your focus. I love dancing, and i can dance and dance for 2-3 hours at end, and have fun doing it. so i dont mind cardio.

But i do know some people are masochists. they love torture machines. hence, lifting is good. but be careful, and use a trainer. dont break your back. got one person he lift lift sampai slipdisk wtf. his life is now ruined. his copulation life also only left one style (and its not doggy style)

copy pasta or your story?

Been hitting the gym July last year, doing the big 3 plus other isolation lift.

Only noticeable is most of my shirts feel loose and some of L size feels fit. Walking across town during lunch time, less sweat and don't feel like dying at all.

However my weight remain the same, which is 102 kg (height 175cm) :/

google la if u think i plagiarise =.=

share ur training regime

I want to become usain bolt. How to become like him??

blame yourself not your weight

what is your everyday routine..planning to lose 5 kg this month..

dont care about the things u cant get...
but u get my respek! for reducing ur weight!!!!

nice one mang!

losing 5kg is hardly an enough sign of losing weight parmanently.

my week on week weight can fluctuate more than 4kg, because of berak, water, sweat, even if i take the weight same day everyday.


you will only know you "lost" your weight, when your pant size shrinks and your banana grows longer. then you have effectively lost weight.

all of this i measure on a weekly basis to make sure of progress. and dont worry about being a fanatic. its pretty normal. most people who successfully lose weight parmanently, becomes fanatical about it. its a lifestyle afterall.

I lost around 50kg+ from 125 odd kg to 70-75kg
Goodies:
You will be stronger: When i starting cycling, on a hill, my gear is 1+1. on a flat road, my gear is 1+4. Eventually, after losing weight, on the same hill i can gear up to 3+2/3, while on a straight road, i will always use 3+6 (max gear)
[/quote]

Agree. When I start exercise, its hard to run non stop. Now I can run without stopping for 30mins max including sprinting.[quote=FindingGamerWife,Jan 7 2014, 03:40 PM]

Your banana will be longer: When i started last year, my banana was around 2.2 inch. once i ended, its around 5.0-5.5 inch. and there is potential for it to go even longer

You sweat less: when i started cycling, a one minute cycle in 8am in the morning and you will sweat. Now i can walk from Tabung haji to klcc to lowyat in the afternoon without breaking a sweat. i can cycle 15 minutes straight without breaking a sweat.
[/quote]
Yep, previously I always sweat ALOT even in an aircond-ed room and sometimes I blame the humidity and the weather which I thought causing me to sweat a lot. Now after I manage to reduce weight, I sweat less and already cold like hell when I'm in the office.

Better promotion/job oppurtunities: Yes. being lean and handsome WILL lead you to better job oppurtunities. be handsome. and bring your best clothes to that job interview.

Ego boost: Everyone will praise you because you lost much weight. people will envy you. they want you to be their role model. they want your secrets

Been there, done that lol.
... but...
However:

[quote=FindingGamerWife,Jan 7 2014, 03:40 PM]
no one will confess you. You WONT get girls The reality is. to start a relationship, you need money, to be romantic, and to be handsome. sure. you might be handsome-er. but you have history. you have scars. and most importantly, you have no TIME to be romantic. you cant eat ice freaking cream. you cant go out yam cha. you cant drink. you wanna lose more weight. you wanna go lifting. you have no life. you are a freak for losing weight. fat guys will never get the girls so live with it.
[/quote]

Cannot agree with you on that. Like I said above. I gain confident to talk to people after weight loss. Yes, that includes flirting with girls. Previously I always thought girls don't like talki to me because of my body size. And Some of them will not talk to me face 2 face in fact they try to avoid me. Now I can talk to them freely and manage to go outwith how many gils haa?Hmm about hmmm let say. 1, 2,3...4, arghh I couldnt count!!

Your bones will poke out your butt Yes. this is annoying. being fat is awesome, cuz ur butt is gebu. sleeping on ur tummy, and sitting down, is always soft and selesa. but being thinner, bones start poking out your butt. its VERY unconfortable. Also, sleeping on your tummy is also not confortable. cuz ur ribs are poking out.

You tak buat squating deswai your butt pun tulang je.

Your stamina will NOT increase, SPECIALLY RUNNING i will still pancit very quickly when running. i still cant run through a 5km mini marathon
Says who. I can run and sprinting less than 330ins in 5km non stop just fine. It maybe due to your cycling exercise coz cycling wouldnt elevated your heartbeat much. Try do alot of run sprint run sprint. Bagi jantung tu exercise sikit.

[quote=FindingGamerWife,Jan 7 2014, 03:40 PM]
You WONT run twice faster too. Despite acceleration = force/mass, if your mass halves, you wont accelerate twice faster. for some reason, my 100m run only improved by half sec tops.
[/quote]
I dunno but maybe its due to food. I.e I always sprinting and fast run just fine but I only sometimes couldnt do that after eating kenduri food which is very oily and spice. Makanan melayu memang buat orang melayu sendiri rasa malas deswai I try to avoid oily and spicy food

[quote=FindingGamerWife,Jan 7 2014, 03:40 PM]
Your habits wont change I still love gaming. i love eating. and i love snacking. i love anime. and playing with my banana. These habits simply wont go away. It will be part of you. its just that you learn to offset it with exercise. The extra habit is: you will weigh yourself everyday. cuz u have been fat before.
yes. if you snore, you will STILL snore.
however all been said one thing for sure.

You WILL be happier. this might be enough reason to go slimming down. so why not? im definitely happier. haha.

[/quote]

Yes, When your weight is reduced a lot, you will be happier and merrier. About snoring, I dunno about you but already stop snoring after my body become smaller. As for eating habit,I control my eating and my life style. As my hobby habit. Previously I love watching anime while eating burger and fast food snacks but now I eat cereal/jacob biscuit/oat while enjoying watching my favourite anime. Previously I also stayed up late on the weekend marathoning anime but now I wake up early in the weekend and watch anime/ playing game whille enjoying the sunrise shine through my window and sipping a cup of hot sugarless/milkless horlic. Damn nice!

Well. Previously I'm 84kg but now 50kg. My height is 167cm. People said that I look like k-pop artist already haha.

oh ya! i dont know if this is normal or not, but from my experience,

if you were fat, and you lose lots of weight, you will still not be confortable peeing at the wall toilet , nor berak with without opening your pants (these are skills mastered by ppl who are thin, using wall toilet, and berak without fully open your pants)
