Lifting weights are 100% better. I did watch the fitness blender routine and I must say it is very well put together and a good start to developing a good butt and thighs.

OP is already in a calorie deficit. As far as muscle growth, it happens quickly for some and slower for others. Heavy lifting will promote muscle growth. Sorry that you disagree but op needs to do less of the heavy lifting. I will agree that the op should go by the clothing size over the scale numbers.

Unfortunately there is no spot reduction. It will go when its ready to go and it's usually the last and hardest to do so. Continue progressing with your exercising, eat right. and do cardio.

Your building muscle which in turn either makes the scale go up or stay the same. Muscle is heavier than fat. So you may look tighter and maybe fit into smaller clothes but the scale with say something different. Do less heavy lifting, proper eating, cardio if your goal is to see the numbers go down.

I agree with going with small goals at a time. I suggest using clothing size as your motivator. Forget the scale..the bmi..the percentages and just focus on one pants size at a time. Aim to get into the next smaller size. When that happens go for the smaller size after that. Worrying about all these other numbers will just…

LOL I encourage the weekend devil although I limit it to one weekend day which is my cheat day. Sure I eat a lot on that day but it doesn't affect my progress. Train hard during the angel days and that devil won't harm you much at if any.

I agree that 5'10 at 250lbs is pro level numbers with the help of a lot of illegal substances. 200lbs is a good solid weight.

I will repeat what everyone else has said...squats, stiff leg dead lifts, lunges, etc.

check out www.shapefit.com They have lots of useful information. My favorite being the many different exercise with video showing how to do them.

^^^ what he said

For legs it takes me about 45 minutes. All other parts roughly 30 minutes. I saw no added benefit to working out any longer.
-
I typically workout out 6-7 days a week doing one body part per day and maybe 20 minutes cardio. It probably takes me about 45-55 minutes to do that..less if i get my cardio in with the weight training. I make sure I don't train the same muscle back to back. With all that being said, it will catch up to you and your body…

I agree with Lt star...throw is some weight training especially for the larger muscles and you will have used 500 calories easily.

Many many years ago I had the pleasure of making friends with my serbian coworker that was a power lifter. He showed me a lot of things one of them was doing full reps. That's not to say anything is wrong with partial or half reps but I don't think I ever saw him do partial reps or have me do them myself. Now have I done…

Now that's a good 30 minute workout to get things going. Keep it up!

is snickers. Man oh man they will be the death of me..and anyone who tries to take them from me while I'm eating one. lol..jk

If done correctly a cheat day a week won't hurt much. I cheat once a week and have had everyone I've trained have a once a week cheat day with no negative results. It's a not a pig out day but a day where you can have some of the food you really love to eat. I don't do any special type of dieting other than eating small…

I wear nothing..first thing when I wake up and after a bathroom visit. Sometimes I will do the same at night to see the change in the am.

Feel free to add me. I have been a member for a while but recently started using for my 6 month test/challenge. I also have been doing this and training other people to for a good 20yrs. Welcome!

I'm 6'4". It's hard for me to find clothes that fit as well. I have to look really hard for them. I don't have any kids but my nephew is 15 yrs old and already 6'5" which is weird to me. I'm always the one looking down at most people. Now I have to look up to him lol.

Keep up the good work!

Can you share what exercises you are currently doing for each body part? How is you're eating? Are you taking in enough nutrients whether from food or supplements to feed the muscles? I will say that you will need to mix up you're workout? Or...intensify you're current training. Either way, the muscles need to be worked…

Great job and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

I know and feel your pain. I was plague with achilles tendonitis in both feet for over a year. All the rehab I did didn't help too much. As long as you are on your feet it will hurt. Finally my doctor told me that I would need 3 to 6 months off my feet in order for it to heal. But I don't have that much sick time available…

I agree with ambicion6...DESTROY it so it is not edible. Your other option is to eat it and then burn off some calories later in the gym or something. Thats what I do when I can't resist.
