MoogleViper Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I'm about 6,3 so it's not too bad with clothes on. I'd just like to feel better with my top off That's given me some disturbing mental images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShavenWolf Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 IT STARTS!! In 2 weeks. I've still got loads of food left from Christmas so I'm giving myself time to finish it. Then I'll be having a repeat of last year's successful post-Christmas diet, where I lost 2 stone in 3 months! I managed it just by eating less, eating better, avoiding snacking and drinking plenty of water. I'm not really fat now, but I've grown a nice little pot belly that can protrude through clothing when it wants to. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Molly Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I'm not telling you how much I weigh, I don't want anyone to throw up on their keyboard. I will however give weight loss updates! No excuses for me, we have a cross trainer, rower, and stepper all conveniently placed in a room together with a tv. It's on mofos. Although again, not till all the xmas goodies have been eaten!

Jon Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Since I started playing 5-a-side a few months ago, my fitness has come on wonders, and i've lost a few pounds along the way. The problem comes when you miss a game and your fitness starts to suffer. I'm suspended for the next 2 games, so i'll have to go out for a run or something instead.

Daft Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I'm 5 foot 7 So you're just super light. My friend at work is the same. He eats normally but I can pick him up so easily. I not quite sure how the two inches make a whole 20 kg difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Actually what is the best gym equipment to burn the flab? (Other than the treadmill) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwolf Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Overall burning? I was talking to pooki about it and he said overall it'd be anything at low resistances. You'd still work up a sweat to loose weight but not enough to gain muscle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 well I'm no expert but the cross trainer is pretty good, works your arms and legs, plus it's bloody knackering cv wise. When I haven't been on in ages I can do about 15 mins before I fall over and pass out, I find that's a good sign(not of my fitness but of the machine!).

Raining_again Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Anything aerobics based. Step classes are bloody awesome and really fun (but I think they went out in the 90s) Swimming too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Actually what is the best gym equipment to burn the flab? (Other than the treadmill) Rower, cycling, cross trainer that sort of thing.

nightwolf Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Low weight/more reps=weight losshigh weight/less reps=muscle build haha yes basically. I managed to convince my friend to join the gym with me, although originally it was her idea and get another to let me join rowing with her. Good start before I've even got back to uni!

Jon Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I don't see the point of a gym (well I do, but it's far too expensive imo). Especially when you can do it yourself for free. I use to run for 3 miles everynight and do 30 sit ups for about 2 months, along with cutting out all the crap I use to eat. Basically living on shreddies, brown bread and soup. It was slightly extreme but it worked. Ended up losing 3 stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Wolf Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I weigh about 7.5 stone and I am about 5 ft 4 (I think, need to check). Pretty good really. I've been working out a lot but it has done nothing to increase my confidence even though my mates think I am ridiculously fit (as in strength etc). I can only lift about 8 KG dumbells for about 15/20 reps. Should I just keep improving myself to get confidence or do I need to do something else?

I'd say you need to look at mental things first rather than phyiscal. Confidence is a huge attaction to other people and no amount of muscle is going to change your opinion is seems.

Be confident, for your overall weight you seem to be lifting more than enough. Don't get carried away with what others think, long as you're happy with how you're doing, then keep it up!

rokhed00 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Not planning on losing much, probably just the stone I put on at the end of last year, not going to be easy though with giving up smoking at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pookiablo Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I wouldn't mind losing a few pounds here and there - bit of fat here and there but overall I'm not fussed. I enjoy my food and I exercise very regularly. Currently 13st4, (84.something kg for Danny ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
