You care enough to comment... Clearly that's something?
-
On this note. WHO LET THE DOGS OUT?!!
-
No, you wouldn't be loosing them... You would be RELEASING them.
-
LOL. **** alert.
-
You forgot "They're".

Right now, i'm trying to cut but also hitting up weights at the same time so when I am cut, i'll be big enough to not look like a twig. Once i'm down enough, i'll likely bulk up a bit.
-
I'd be all over a woman who just wore whatever top and some lace boyshorts of some kind, maybe with stockings and the heels would just be icing on the deliciously consumable cake...... xD

Good to see so many additonal responses. Hopefully these answers will help other guys trying to figure out how much they need to eat, since it was a fantastic help to me!
-
Thanks for your input, Robert! Think that's gonna be what I do!
-
By this, do you mean you're tricking your body with the, for example: Eating 2000 calories a day for a week then cutting down to your 900 for the other?

I used a BMR calculator that uses body fat as well. I'm 5'11, 235 lbs and 31% body fat. I used fat2fitradio.com or something similar, which you can google. As for you being at a surplus if you consumed over you're BMR, you're wrong. Again, your BMR is what you NEED to SURVIVE. Typing out right now is burning calories.…
-
First of all, I have no idea why your BMR is like 400-500 calories lower than mine... That's pretty low. Secondly, you probably arn't losing much because your metabolism is likely going into starvation mode eating under your BMR. BMR is what you'd burn throughout the day if you laid in bed and just breathed.. From what…

Excellent, excellent! Definitely where I want to be. Thanks for the additional responses! ;)
-
Alright, perfect, that means i'm doing something right by the sounds of things. Thanks for the responses. This really helps me figure out where I need to be in terms of consuming so that I lose, but continue to build my muscle!
-
I would, but you're already on my friends list. Kidding! You're welcome for the bump!
-
@ Kso - Love my zombies! Especially female ones! :D
-
Thanks for all this. I finally got the one downloaded off the website so I have a better idea of what I need to do. A few things confused me, but I will wing it as best I can for a little while. If things go well, i'll invest more time and money into the program. Thanks for the help!
-
How long does it say to go each day doing this? If it's very long and i'm adding 5 pounds every set, i'd be at my weight max of 130ish by the end of the first day. LOL
-
I likely would if I had access to a phone that could download the app. I tried downloading the 5x5 report on my computer, but it froze everything up so I ended the process.
-
Well thanks for all the input, everyone. Think i'll start at a weight I can do all of these at comfortably: Deadlift, Barbell Row, Bench and Squats. I'll likely start doing at least 15 minutes a day of even rotations and add more weight as I go, unless you all have a better, more precise suggestion.
-
I really don't think it's much weight itself. It's got like a black plastic coating, but i'll take my weights off and lift it next time to see if there is anything at all to it.
-
More weights shouldn't be a problem. I'm reading up on it now to try and find out where it says what I need to begin this program. And what in the love of god is a "deadlift"?
-
Checking this out now.
-
My weights don't even say if they're Kg's or lbs. If they're Kgs, it's roughly 135 pounds. If not, I believe it's like 62 lbs?... It has to be Kg's, cause it definitely feels like a hell of a lot more than 62 lbs i'm benching.
-
As previously mentioned, don't really have a gym pass of any type. Would barbell squats count as legs, or is that working the same muscles from me bench pressing. I'm a complete nooby to weight lifting, for the most part. So I definitely need a guiding hand.
-
I heard about this 5x5 program and quickly viewed it on youtube but wasn't sure it would be a good fit for me. I don't have a gym membership right now, so all I have is my cardio and a bench press/light dumbbells at my disposal. Do you need anything more than that for the 5x5?
-
I suppose this makes sense as to why I see most people only posting about doing weight sessions three times a week at most. Gives them the time they need to recuperate. Thanks for the input! I will go by what you said. :)
-
I love having the pleasure of viewing success stories from other guys, because it gives me a better idea of the change that I can look forward to seeing when I lose my weight. Very inspirational! Great job!
-
Congratulations! Must be a wonderful feeling!
-
Excellent job! Super well done and you're looking great! :)
