this is my current routine.. http://www.building-muscle101.com/5_day_beginner_workout.html im droping cardio after each excercise except mon,wed,friday next week.. (due to time and the fact i'm extremly beat) also not doing cardio on sat. as i dont have time.. ice fishing and or covers that..

my reasoning for the 5day is i have a bunch of weight to lose as well, this will help me get in the gym more than not.. i'm eat a cal def. but not a big one... trying to stick around 2500 cal a day.. as my job is not a very active one..

thanx, i needed to hear that it gets better, i just got back into lifting after a LONG hiatus.. and well.. am extremly out of shape.. so was expecting bad pain.. but i dont remember it this bad... i'll keep working through it..

i found that since i started lifting regularly my sciatica pain has disapeared for the most part.. i still feel the twinge brefly if i sit too long.. i dont do deadlifts etc however.. and the only bent over excersice i do is a dumbell row...

what a wuss.. i used to have habanero sauce with my eggs at breakfast..

she said my stomach was too Grande!

ill take flack for this one.. but i tend to log afterwards.. and see how well did, or how bad i did with my choices for the prior meal.. i understand this could really screw me up by possibly being over my calorie limit... but.. it seems to be working for me, so far.. i also seem to have alot of calories i'm allowed to…

because if this time isn't different, than y bother trying? the definitition of insanity is trying the same thing over and expecting a different result. the last time didn't work for you, try again, but do something different. 7 years ago i quit drinking (except for once or twice a year) 3+ years ago i quit smoking.…

unless zombies are chasing you, theres no reason to run away... wait... the cops.. thats another good reason to run away

caffeine helps weight loss.. whats wrong with coffee? i drink at least a pot a day... i dont use sugar, or milk, or cream in my coffee though..

add me... i have no problem with humor at, or WELL beyone the line...

i feel your pain.. being at least 120 lbs overweight.. my stomach hangs and sags.. and my pic i wanted to blow up with some dynamite.. lmao.. that being said, everytime i start to lose weight i get 3 months in and i plateau.. the scale stops, i get depressed.. this is first topless selfie i ever took.. i didnt look at it,…

i need about 130... 100 would be nice.

I did the same thing.. and as soon as it stops.. the ambition dies down... this.time im weighing every few weeks.. using measurements instead.

Last time I "gave up" was a three month plateau... this time I'm not weighing myself.. as much. Going to use measurements and monthly pictures instead.

5 day split.. shoulder monday,legs Tuesday,back Wednesday, chest thursday, arms Friday.. cardio on mon,wed,fri,sat...

my wife is supportive of my choice to get fit.. she knows if i dont do something i probably wont be around next year.. or the following.. however, as i sit here and type, i smell the sweet, sweet aroma of her baking cinamon roles.. fml.. i'm so hungry right now.

building muscle will also cause an increase in calories being burnt at rest. by increasing your metabolism...

six star whey protein cookies and cream!!! before or after is okay.. some say after, some say before

try this one... http://www.building-muscle101.com/beginner-weight-lifting-routines.html or the one i'm doing.. http://www.building-muscle101.com/5_day_beginner_workout.html leg day has squats.. however you probably substite it for something else.. or remove sqautes entirely..

yes it happens, I lost nearly 30lbs.. a few months ago, stayed at that weight.. no matter what I did couldn't lose a lb. and before I knew I am back to my old wieght, so here I am again. starting over. I do know from past experience that plateaus do end.

pretty much anything from ACDC...

im a 31 male.. and I get the same question asked to me to.
