  • Good luck! Having that extra motivation from others definitely helps me in keeping on track.
  • If your goal is to get lean then you are definitely going to want to focus on aerobic activities such as running, biking, swimming, etc. Lifting weights, while a good supplement to aerobic activity, does very little in torching fat. Same thing with body weight exercises. Average calorie burn for 1 push up is somewhere in…
  • Ah why not? 22 years old 5'8 i exercise 5 to 6 times a week consisting of calisthenics and running. Im 167 now with a goal weight of 155. Twin me.
  • Added. The more motivators the better! Add me all!
  • Hey go ahead and add me! Im all about team encouragement. That goes for all!

People get so wrapped up in fad diets and and other weight loss secrets, when weight loss is as simple as calories in vs. Calories out. Your first step is, find your basal metabolic rate (bmr). Say…
  • Just piggybacking on what most have already said, 1 to 2 lbs a week is an ideal number, although if you are having trouble maintaining that diet, consider eating more, maybe 1700-1800 calories per day and doing cardio 5-6 times a week for 30 mins or more, rather than 3 times a week. In my opinion that level of activity is…
  • Weight loss is simple. The hard part is committing to your lifestyle changes for good. There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat so in order to lose a pound of fat in a week you would have to burn that many more calories than what you ingest that week. Now as to how many calories you should eat per day is dependent on many…
