  • I have heard that the best time for cardio is in the morning (to kickstart metabolism?) and the best time for weights is evening (you will still be burning off calories while you sleep due to the muscle repair).....BUT there just seems to be so much conflicting information out there on diet and exercise it is just CRAZY!!!…
  • ...and now for my hypocrite moment.... I wasn't eating enough protein either when I started out (also, the amount the calorie counter suggests is a little low too). I've read a lot saying 40% protein, 40% carbs is a good mix (as long as your fats are 'good' fats) The protein I use is called EVOPRO. It has less carbs than…
  • agreed. Any posts (especially several from the same person plugging the same website or company) should be removed. There is enough free information out there for those who want to look for it.
  • thanks Kim :-) We're getting married in a place called stanwell tops, near Sydney. You can check out our site at http://jasonandtara.weddingannouncer.com My bride-to-be is dominating the gym at the moment - we moved here to the US for my work, and she's playing the housewife so she has a bit of spare time to work out! I…
  • You need to do more weights to supplement your cardio (though try not to do them on the same day....but if you must, do the cardio AFTER the weights) Cardio isn't that great either (at least not for fat loss) I love high intensity interval training (HIIT or HIT) on the bike....5 min warmup....then 5-7reps of 30 sprints…
  • I started in mid March and weighed 202lbs. Since then I've been doing (fairly) regular workouts, mainly weights and high intensity interval training (about 3-4 times a week). Today I weighed in at 182!! What I'm hoping to do now is tone up some more in time for my wedding on 23rd Feb (and my month of summer on the beach…
  • Full cardio exercise doesn't burn fat particularly well either. Try mixing up your routine a little. I strongly recommend high intensity interval training, which involves short sprints, followed by 'active recovery' (not rests). You can't do this on a treadmill because they speed up and slow down too slowly, but a…
  • I find the K-Time (Kellogs) bars are great. They have only 90 calories (which is less than the weight watchers bars), and they taste awesome. They have only 2g of protein though. I can't seem to get enough protein either, despite eating meat a few times a week. I'm going to supplement my diet with protein for lean muscle.…
  • Hi everyone, I'm 25m, and trying to get into shape for my wedding next February. I'm 6"2 and currently weigh 190lbs. I'm doing a combination of cardio (running / cycling), interval training, and weights. I eat gradually all day, lots of small 'meals' and it looks like my average calorie intake per day will be around…
