Hello,

Any advice or help? Any changes?

I’m going on holiday in 10 weeks. I’m looking to lose possible a stone.
I’ve got 3 social events in the 10 weeks where I will be drinking alcohol and eating off plan.
I’m currently 71kg
Height: 5’6

Training plan:
M - full body
T- cardio
W- full body
T- cardio
F - full body
S - light cardio (dog walk)
S - rest

Calories & marcos:
Calories - 1700
Protein- 110grams
Carbs - 185grams
Fats - 50gram

A normal day eating (say a Monday) would be:

Breakfast - overnight oats (50g rolled oats, 10g protein powder, 100ml almond milk)
AM snack - 5 ryvita multi seed flatbread crackers with 100g cottage cheese
Lunch - 2 chicken sausages, 70g whole meal pasta with 15g pesto
PM snack - 80g pineapple & 20g almond nuts.
Tea - 150g rump steak with 200g sweet potato mash and 1 poached egg.


Thanks

    Your macros are in line. Are you running a workout plan? "Full body" is vague. And what is your typical cardio session?

    Based on your stats I don't think losing a stone is necessary, and given your time limit would be considered unhealthy. I'd suggest a good lifting program.

    Fruit and vegetables deficient. I see one point something a day instead of more than 5 a day!

    And a bit aggressive, of course. As both posters above have mentioned.

    Don't lose for a vacation. Lose for YOU!!!

    My friend is a PT who has helped me put a program together.

    All 3 full body days differ in weight, reps and intensity. For example, a moderate weight full body day would consist of:

    Squat - 4 sets, 15 reps
    Assisted pull ups- 4 sets, 8-12 reps
    Barbell incline bench press - 4 sets, 12 reps
    Walking lunges- 4 sets
    Preacher curl - 4 sets, 12-15 reps
    Tricep pull downs - 4 sets, 12-15 reps
    weighted v sits - 4 sets, 10-15 reps
    &
    30 minutes cardio

    Cardio days usually last 45-60 minutes doing 2 or 3 different cardio I choose from stair master, running, cross trainer, watt bike or rower. Some cardio I do I HIIT, some LISS.

    I’m not focused entirely on losing a stone because I know it’s a big ask. I think I’m more bothered about losing body fat and inches. Because of the weight training I don’t really weigh myself anymore due to muscle weighing more than fat.
