I use 5x5 for the main lifts has worked a charm for me in 5months gone from 60kg bench to 110kg bench 5x5. Might be worth a go increase your weight every week by at least 2kg.
-
Why not 3 times a week? Monday - Wednesday - Friday for exmaple I do this as part of my 5x5 workout
-
I use push/pull it's working amazingly for me but I do increase weight every workout by at least a 1lbs this is very hard and requires a lot of hardwork to battle through some of the sets when you start lifting seriously heavy weight. I've torched my body fast from around 21% to 14-15% hoping to get it down to sub 10% by…

You don't need to detox. If you don't fast as part of your normal eating pattern i.e do it weekly monthly etc i wouldnt bother. Why not just stick to eating normally this will sort you out. I know the feeling when you go over your clories you think they only way to sort it would be not to eat but think this way, it's gone…

Walking is one of the best excercises for calorie burn. You need to start at an hour really 30mins one way 30mins the other should burn you a whole lot of calories.
-
Both are fine I personally would rather do it before breakfast than after I hate working out after food. But that's just a personal preference. Do what you prefer there is no right or wrong in this.

Get rid of leg press and replace it with squats much better for your legs and whole body in general.
-
Try working out your forearms more often I found this helped with my overall grip/wrist strength. Also if your getting pain from it just lower the weight until you strengthen your wrists up. No point risking an injury for an extra 5kg.

You really need to add strength work into your routine. Remember if you wante to burn fat you need to build muscle, the more lean muscle on you the more calories your body will burn. Try adding some compound movements under weight i.e Squat,Deadlift,Bench Press,Barbell Rows etc... Then try and hit cardio on seprate days to…

I agree with above start on a beginners compound program. This will see you right for the first 6months or so

Calories are the most important just match them for maintenance or consume slightly less for weight loss and your set.

Your best bet is to invest in a hear monitor you can pick decent one's up for anything from £70-£100 this will allow you to track any excercise you do as closley as possible.

Ye I use this, You can even add pillau flavoring to it. Very good tip.
-
I get where your coming from. But it's working for me I've tried 6 meals a day 3 meals a day protien rich etc... with no major benefit. Using IF works in my life and with the Gym Routine I use. I would say anyone with an eating disorder should check with a GP before starting any diet as one can be as bad as the other. Just…

I stick to Water and Coffee seems to work for me If I feel hungry I either have a glass of cold water or a cup of black coffee. I now use IF 16/8 so I fast for 16hrs a day (22.00-14.00) and after 4 weeks I don't even crave food during my fasts.

I usually put the following on: Weights:Static X - Push It - Metallica - Frantic Cardio - Anything with a decent beat - Dance Music/ Drum n Bass etc...
