I tried 10 minute HIIT from youtube. Seemed fairly harmless, my legs ached (good pain) for a few days. Im trying running HIIT 3:1 rest work ratio. I like running outside on the track.

What was starting weight bf%? Looks good I want to get somewhere around that!
-
I know! What I do for a quick clean is I let it heat up for a bit, then I run paper towel through the grooves to grab whatever is stuck. Its not completely clean but I'm a guy so I dont give a **** lol! I used to make grilled cheese on it but the calorie to satiety ratio isnt worth it these days!

Olympic lifts with weights and plyometrics for bodyweight. I have done neither and I have not done muay thai, proceed at your own caution! Lol.
-
Yea pretty much. I make the "uhhhh" grunting sound too when I squat and deadlift. Nobody cares my gym is cool!

Exercise is good for your health!

Lol too funny. Hate to admit it I know people like that. Incidentally enough they have no real direction in life. Yea I agree a routine needs to be followed to progress and measure success. A program centered around compound lifts will suffice! Don't spin your wheels. When you notice strength increasing you'll go beast…

Me too! I used to work nights for two years and it was difficult to reverse the circadian rhythm. And I would have to get my routine in 3-4AM BEFORE bed, that sucked but I was dedicated! The energy pills/drinks, coffee etc will help during the day and beware ingesting anything caffeine related at least 6 hours before…

You sound taxed from your day. Do you feel you get enough from eating and get enough rest periods during the day? Like other posters above I take a caffeine pill as well. First thing when I wake. I was a huge coffee drinker before and I know these caffeine pills are quicker acting and more efficient. Its alot better than…

Lifting heavier burns more calories. 'mi right?

Sounds like you got bit by the bug! Correct form is huge you're fortunate to have your man check it! And I like the choice of exercises, deadlifting 115 and just starting out...your trainer will have you double that on a very short time! Congrats!

This made me laugh cause meathead in question is her life partner. We all know things, we're all meatheads! @ninerbuff I agree as that echos what I said few pages back. Like brocean said if it makes you feel good go for it! Personally, I'd find the most efficient workout for myself and that's the push/pull routine 3 times…

And thats the problem I had with it, hence my "forcing" comment. Good luck with him.
-
True! Completely agree with everything said here.
-
Without reading the whole thread I would just like to point out that bodybuilders focus on one or two parts a day a week, and powerlifters focus on one part to strengthen weak points in their lift. Fullbody workouts are an excellent way to begin a lifting routine. I do a push/pull split and its working fantastic for my…

Beautiful! I love it when people understand the nature of the beast!

Old chinese proverb "the journey of a thousand miles begins with one single step". How many calories does one burn walking 1000 miles? Keep it going cf200028!
-
Yep. And your workouts dont have to be "female" geared just lift heavy. those muscles will show way sooner than you think.
-
Well if the Drs. haven't figured out what it is yea more sodium and water seems like the obvious remedy. Another thing it could be is a drop in blood albumin. Albumin helps with keeping blood pressure stable if I'm not mistaken. Albumin is produced in the liver I believe. Might be worth investigating.
-
Yes! Hahaha!
-
When you finally get to talk me in person you'll know lol!
-
Yes I agree dont abstain! If you cant drum up motivation to work out simply start your journey by just tracking every crumb of food you ingest.
-
Hmm better to just focus on eating cleaner and eating when you are hungry. Fasting will make you hangry then you get diet rage and crash lol jk.
-
When I feel drained or I need something for an energy boost I eat an apple. Its the fruit that seems to give me a quick boost of energy. Try a natural form of simple carbs (any fruit) for energy. Much better than greasy pizza and salted greasy chips lol I love those too I just make sure they are within parameters!

Use the Diary to log your meals and snacks. You can scan anything you consume if it has a bar code. If there's no barcode use the search function in diary to find your food, or something similiar to it. Log everything to start. Everything! In your diary menu theres a piechart at the bottom and there will be the nutrients…

Was into bodybuilding years ago but that came to a stop for various ressons. Finished school now I have time for the gym. Also I was tracking while I was in school (no exercise just normal walking to classes) and I had almost reached my goal weight, then I stopped tracking, big mistake! I meticulously track everything now.…
