Hello, I'm Sara from Egypt.. Today is my Day 1 and I'm so excited to "get ripped"!

Hello! I'm Sara from Egypt, 22 years old. 154 cm (5'1 I guess). My current weight is 63 Kg. Goal weight is 55 Kg. I'm doing Turbo Jam and LOVING it! :)

Thanks everybody! I know he ultimately will need to go to a gym. I just needed to show him there are many options if he's really willing to start.. As soon as he finishes his exams, I'm gonna kick him to the nearest gym! :)

I don't know what info you need. He never lifted or worked out before, which means he needs to build muscles from the very beginning, doesn't it??

Help, anyone?? He wouldn't handle PX90 or Body Beast, would he?

Thank you, but you know, a medical student's life is a mess. I want to get in shape, attend classes and study for exams, and I'm working as hard as I can!

Alright, I'll check Turbo Jam out and see what happens.. Thanks everybody for your suggestions! :)

Thanks, but the the thing is, I have no time for a personal trainer..

How about Turbo Jam??I read it suits beginners..

Thank you! :) But I know myself, I won't commit to something I can adjust on my own.. I need a schedule to follow, 'cause I'm such a procrastinator!

Thanks everybody for suggestions... :)

I see, but pre-workout food drives me to a lot of panting and sometimes it makes me sick.. Would a bar pre-workout be lighter than a regular meal??

I understand that processed food in general isn't advisable, but calorie-wise, do 85 calories post-workout cause weight gain?

I need to lose weight.. And surprisingly, 1200 calories with insanity got me plateauing for 3 weeks!

This's confusing...

How about these: http://healthyliving.azcentral.com/consume-carbs-after-cardio-3450.html http://www.wellnessword.com/blog/fitness-nutrition/powerful-exercise-recovery-nutrition-formula

But don't I need post-workout food to recover especially after a vigorous workout??

I've reached my 3rd week right before spraining my ankle.. Sadly, I now have to rest for a few days. Wanna recover soon and keep pushing! :)

I'm planning to redo month 1 anyway because I know I won't be fit enough to start month two! So if I take a week off, I guess it's okay to resume and restart month 1 later..

So rest seems to be the ultimate option! Alright, if I stop, should I start over or resume where I stopped?? I don't wanna lose the fitness I gained!
