Default Re: Workout Routine/Suggestions

If you want to lose weight, eat good tasting foods, and get semi jacked you should try what I have been doing for 10 months (lost 50 lbs). I was very overweight and I had no self control when it came to eating (VERY HARD TO IMPROVE). I also thought that my workouts were "good" when they were really sub-par because I did the same routines over and over..... You MUST mix up weight vs reps every time you workout. Additionally, you need to find different ways to stimulate the same muscles (IE - one day for a warmup you swing kettle bells, the next you walk on a treadmill that is unplugged 100 steps x4, and the next day you pull a sled with 3 plates on it 50 steps x 4)

Preface:
1. To lose weight, leg workouts are key with a mixture of core workouts (squatting, deadlifting, good mornings, etc) Your legs and middle body are what help your body build muscle and burn fat all over the body. They are also the muscles that let you live long and not crumble over onto yourself.

2. Protein is your friend, carbs and sugar are the enemy. Avoid fruit, Avoid bread/pasta.. NEVER DRINK ANOTHER DROP OF POP AGAIN.... buy crystal light packets (its 5 calories), and stop eatign cream based dressing on your salads. For the times that you cant eat well.... buy a book called "eat this, not that"

2a. Understand that "if it tastes good, its probably not good for you.

2b. One simple rule... "We eat food for effect, not taste"


3. Join a gym for 30-40 dollars per month, and seperately get a trainer that you see 1x a week. A good trainer will get you in sync once a week. I foung a guy who is a powerlifter and only charges 25 bucks for 1.5 hours and he is a miracle worker/genious. He eats, breaths, and sleeps the theory of nutrition and fitness. he's not some D-bag tanned/shaved gym rat. He is a man who is devoted to helping people live longer by helping them strengthen their muscles. never met a trainer like him. Do cardio/crossfit during the week at the gym and then have your trainer focus on muscle development on the weekend.

4. Be strict when eating, eat 5-7 times per day. Remember, over thousands of years our bodies have not evolved much from the idea that "the body stores fat when you eat less and eat less often". The prehistoric viewpoint is like this: "I am your body, and if you dont feed me enough and feed me often i will keep you alive and store fat because I am assuming that you are starving because you didn't catch anything while hunting with a spear today"

Here is what I eat every day......

7:00am - EAS Shake - 110 Cal (NOT SLIMFAST)


9:00am - 2 hardboiled eggs - 200 Cal
9:00am - 2 pieces of toast.butter - 240 Cal


11:30am - 8 ounces of meat - 200-300 Cal
11:30am - 90 second Rice - 440 Cal
11:30am - frozen veggies - 80 Cal (add lemon pepper)


2:00pm - 1/4 Cup Raw Almonds - 120 Cal


4:00pm - 1/4 Cup Raw Almonds - 120 Cal


6:00pm - 12 ounces Meat - 300-400 Cal



9:00pm - 2-3 Eggs any prep - 200-300 Cal



That is roughly 2100 Calories and a **** TON of food.... I would even ad in another portion of 8oz neat in the afternoon.... I cut weight very fast and was stuffed all the time. Best part is that I could eat steak, chicken, eggs, and toast every day (things i love)
