Great point it really depends on how much the deficit is and if the subject over training or not. if your consuming enough calories and utilizing your body fat as energy to compensate for the rest of your energy expendature all while progressively getting stronger in your workouts then it can be done, my current plan has…

To reduce body fat you need to have an aerobic component to your overall exercise plan, strength training with weights or even your own body weight is beneficial, since muscle is more metabolic than fat meaning its gonna burn more calories at rest, but to utilize your body fat as energy it needs to be done aerobically,…

If your trying to burn bf, the rule of thumb is walk or jog at a pace that you can talk comfortably outloud. If you get to a point where you need to gasp for air or take a break then most likely your working to hard. Write down the distanced walked or jog and the time it took to do it, and next time try to be a little…

Okay thank you all for your time and input :)

No that's just the name of the book. There was no adds in their, and my point being if you start straight off the bat at 1,200 calories I mean how much lower can you go?

The following is an extract from "Total Nutrition: The Only Guide you'll Ever Need. From the Mount Sinai School of Medicine" Chapter 17: Weight Control under the topic "Things to avoid: Fad diets and Repeated Crash Dieting" recent studies suggest that a yo-yo pattern of going on a very low calorie diet less than 1200…

I am one who is more concerned about weekly caloric intake than daily. 1200 is low, and studies been shown that people gain weight even on a 800 calorie plan!! Let's say you ate 1200 calories for 5 days and then on the weekend you ate 2000 and 2500 calories the average comes out to 1500 calories a day! Kind of defeats the…

I used to do it everyday 0500 in my PT uniform. Now I only do it every time I have a bod pod appointment.

That's great! To you ever plan on getting into a workout routine? Feel free to add me, I'll put it to you this way after I'm done lifting weights I'll eat an Oreo cookie ice cream sandwich, only 260 calories but I don't feel as bad after a workout lol that's how I get away with it!

Keeping a workout journal! It's all about doing more every workout whether it be lifting more weight or doing more reps and even doing it in a shorter amount of time. I'm a believer that a weight training workout shouldn't be fun, if it is your not working hard enough, your body responds best to stimuli that would hinder…

Everyone here is making great points! Your heart isn't working as hard now thus the lower max rate I wouldn't be surprised of your resting heart rate was lower as well. The nurses always have to tell me to think of something exciting because my HR is always in the 50s lol. But yeah if your documenting your workouts…

Hey! First congrats on wanting to serve that's very admirable! All armed forces has a Physical fitness test consisting of push ups, sit ups and a run for the most part. Start practicing this test! As far as what to eat what I would do is weight yourself one day first thing in the morning and record everything you eat for…

It depends. Seems like your doing what's called "break in" training which is basically getting into the groove of things I.e. your workout. What I would suggest is doing this particular workout for about 5 days straight. So Monday thru Friday. The following Monday begin to write down how many reps you did and the time it…

If you are truly strength training, and not for any sport ie sport specific training, and you stick to compound movements you should only be at the gym the most 45 mins. And if your there any longer "working out" with weights your not training hard enough, and if you got the energy to go the next day and do more than then…

Same here! I'm trying to lose 1lb a week for five weeks until I have my bod pod analysis. Hopefully gain some lean tissue mass while I'm doing it. This past month from may to June I only gained .1 lb of bf and I was eating like crap!! We can all do it just got to keep on keeping on lol
-
Hmm strength training is the way to go! Form is essential, if you don't want to pay for a trainer to teach you proper form I suggest going on YouTube and looking at how to videos. Now as far as exercises, that's tricky safety is the number 1 priority but I will say this any exercise you decide to do just do it correctly,…

Hooah I have about 45lbs myself to lose let's do it!!!
