Inspiring man, how long did it take to get there? You need to make a thread with details.

Must make myself familiar with the search function-_-

I guess you can use the smith to get you to a level where you can squat with a bar. Try to incorporate some squats and lunges with Dumbbells as well. Kettlebells are also good for increasing strength. Whatever you do, please use good form. We don't want you to injure yourself.

1. Jump rope 1 min on 1 min rest x 20-30 2. Listening to podcasts whilst running 3. Sprints 4. Uphill sprints 5. Cycling 6. Swimming 7. Circuits 8. Did I say jump rope? 9. Seriously, jump rope. Within a month, you'll be jumping rope like a boxer, makes you feel very cool:)

Everyone has to start somewhere bro. Most of us felt like this. I'd wear a jumper to the gym when I first started, cause I felt so small and scrawny next to these guys. Once you've been lifting, you'll find they're very nice people. 1. Get someone to teach you good form 2. No one is looking at you, it's in your head. 3. If…

Recipe for the chicken? I'm running out of stuff I can use to make my grilled chicken taste better. Sometimes it comes out tasting amazing, other times, I have to close my eyes and wash it down with water.

If only you could taste through the Internet:) They all look delicious.

Got my wife a set of resistance bands so she can start working out. I think what got her fired up was finding out my waist was smaller than hers

For jogging with his arms crossed.

This thread is much better than the usual "how do I lose 23lbs in one week?"

Jan's right, I go sleep after Fajr, wake up at 9. Siesta at 2 for an hour. My sleep pattern gets totally messed up during Ramadhaan. The lack of sleep catches up with me towards the end, but I don't mind, it's only a month out of 12. I only work one day a week during ramadhan, so that makes it easier I guess.

Why not do both? You could cycle the carbs as well, high carbs on training days and low on rest days. Just depends on you and how your body responds to carbs. Though a deficit is what ultimately leads to fat loss.

Yes, the username was a hint. Rich Piana broski.

Happens to almost everyone I know. If you can't stick to the diet, then focus on damage control. Limit the portions. Have your dates, fruits and greens (salad/veg) before eating the other stuff. Don't despair and completely throw the diet out of the window. Try not to go overboard on the cals. Enjoy ramadhan.

Your core and back will get worked which means posture will improve as well. I think it's a good idea.

Agreed.

On the forehead. Cause I'm old enough to do that now:)

I say mix them and smear it over the belly. Then wrap the stomach in foil before getting into bed. Gots to shock that belly fat and keep it guessing, right babe?

Speaking of desserts, fresh bakhlava got me fat again. I had to stop driving past the shop that sells it:(

I like that tingly, ants crawling under your skin feeling.

Anyone tried smearing butter on their stomach every night to help with belly fat?

Do any of you own shares in planet fitness or its competitors? Why so serious?

I'm in love with it:)

I dislike fish as well, I can just about handle mackerel or sardines if my wife cooks them with a lot of seasoning. I suggest you try that fresh tuna, doesnt smell or feel like it's fish at all.

Sorry, I didn't follow Jamie Oliver's recipe. I just seasoned with salt and pepper and grilled it with some olive oil. Remember to keep the middle raw and only cook the top and bottom.

"Wtf bro? I need to look good for the summer as well" Honestly though, I'd just tell him instead of asking that I'll be using the weights and we can swap them after sets. It's not like the idiot is using them all at the same time.

I know exactly what you mean, get some fresh tuna and cook it the way Jamie Oliver shows on his YouTube channel. I'm certain you'll love it.
