Cardio and Strength are all a function of what your goals are... Bodybuilders do much less cardio than people who run Spartan races or do events based on endurance. Also... what are your goals for your body? To look good in a dress or pants? I personally feel that diet is HUGE for everyone... and water intake is also…

I use CREED Cologne :smile:

USC Trojans!!! and sometimes BAYLOR BEARS

Welcome! I dropped from a size 42 pant to a size 34... and now am the most physically fit I have ever been! I believe in you!!!! Just dont take NO for an answer!

FOOD by far!!!!

Your protein levels are very low for a man your size and with your goals... Perhaps taking some BCAA's, L-Carnatine and VItamin B Complex... along with a good multivitamin will help you....

When I didnt workout.. it was because my life was a mess... I had my priorities all out of wack... was depressed and felt hopeless... It took a lot to get me to wake up... like a zombie I rose from the dead and have flourished

One month isnt enough time to really see a difference. During the 1st month you will lose a lot of water weight... Also, please realize that there are different types of fat within the body... the fat under the skin and the fat which surrounds the organs... Also you may be gaiing muscle and losing fat simultaneaously... I…

I'm glad to hear that you've started on the road to recovery and health! I support you!!!

Pass

I actually just had this conversation with a friend of mine... I find it funny how people who dont have much drive or self disipline will use whatever they can to justify not putting in the work, staying the course and settling for only moderate success.... this includes CICO and other irrational concepts and studies...…

I'd like more fitness oriented fiends.. ones who are actually here for fitness and a knowledgable exchange of info.

I miss - MUSCLE MEN TOYS - GARBAGE PAIL KIDS - DINO BOTS!!!

I personally find this to be AWESOME!!!! I love a smart woman... and I love a smart athletic woman even More.. BUTT I love a Smart, Athletic woman with a HUGE BOOTY WAY WAY WAY MORE!!!! Like my own personal playground! LOL!!!!!

Saw them at the Spartan Beast scaling the 3nd ridge at a full sprint up the 45 degree 3/4 mile grade.. ARROOO

I infact did an indepth no BS study of shakes.. Take a look at my blog and it will give you a great idea of what I found to be best... It took me 3 months to finish!

Yeah I get hit on every single day... in my dreams.. LOL!!! No way.. honestly women dont hit on me... and when I meet a girl they assume I do get hit on.. Maybe I just dont see it... but I really dont think they do

I think I'm the only Mexican in San Diego who likes Country... Must be my time in Texas and being from AZ... LOL...

Where are you? You should try a few different places before choosing the one for you. They're known as "boxes"... and they will all have different WODS (Workout of the Day)... geared to all fitness levels. So it comes down to the intructor and the people there. You'll know which is right for you after trying a couple.

Constantly in Motion

Well I admire your commitment to yourself. I also was in that situation and the loss of the relationship helped push me to get into the best shape I could... Kudos!!!

I feel like I'm getting sick after I work out hard for a few days straight. This is because your immune system is weaker resulting from the breakdown of tissue and the exertion... and possibly elevated core temperature. You'll find that with drinking more water and sleeping more... you'll reduce this feeling.

Batman for sure... He has the smarts and the physical brawn.. Ironman just has the smarts.. Batman 7 out of 10 fights

I agree.. You really need to increase your protein intake. I'd say you should eat at least 130g of whey protein... and 30g of the 130g should be Casein protein eaten at night... You need to keep the carbs low... roughly 80g per day... and make sure you do HIIT each day.. Lift Heavy!!! Are you trying to compete?

Speaking to the reference of abuse in the above post.... I've been in a very abusive relationship.. Yes men CAN and ARE abused by women as well.... and I will say that you cant always see that you're letting someone control you... because you feel that its your place to forgive someone you love when they are having moments…

Personally I dont really care what others think... I am always in search of facts and data to assist me in my journey... good friends will appear and put in effort.. all others will "hate" and fall off... those people arent worth the effort or spent energy... SO I just ignore it and move on... Life isnt about satisfying…

I try not to be inapproriate on MFP or in general... but I have my moments... as everyone else does also... I dont allow wierdos to post on my page
