Weight Loss

**AdictedToPoker** · 05-07-2007, 10:11 PM

Ok, well most of you guys have seen my gut as of a year and a half ago. I weighted about 205ish then and now im up to 245ish. So needless to say I'm a fat ass and need to drop weight. I hope to get back down to 200ish by the end of the summer. I have dropped 60#s in a summer before so I know I can do this. However, in the process I will be lifting to try to get stronger. I havent lifted seriously in about 4 years and have dropped ALOT of strength. So, if you guyscould suggest methods/supplements to drop the weight while adding muscle it would be greatly appreciated. I will be lifting at a local gym with a friend that has been lifting for a damn long time so I will mostly follow his routine but add anything that would be good for my goals. Thanks.

Do you want strength, mass or endurance for you muscles? Choose wisely....the advice I give you will be based off your answer....

I dont want to be huge nor do i really need to bench 400 lbs, so I guess endurance fits better. I basically want to be pretty lean but not skinny as all hell if you know what I mean.

eat less than 2400 calories a day.
exercise 1-2 hours a day.
lift weights 3 days per week.

the end.

Troof!

On Dec 1, 2006 I weighed 248lbs...
I lost 43lbs to date and just followed a simple diet exercise plan like the one above...

Good luck!

cardio cardio cardio. i suck at running on the treadmill but running outside is easier for me so i do that.

do what myfault said. in the beginning keep your workouts reasonable, dont try and lift more than you can because you think you have too. dont make the gym a quick stop, make it a planned and well executed part of your day.

Dont eat junk, dont put crap into your body.

if you need a kick at the gym i recommend NO-Xplode by BSN. i use it all the time and it really helps me keep going at the gym. its like night and day when im on it vs when im not.

Also make your work out with higher reps and sets with a bit less weight....doing that will give you ENDURANCE....you wont get to be...wont get to strong....but youll have good stamina!

Me personally im traing for mass using the HST program.
