*.* NEW- 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
I guess we filled up the old one... http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=280149
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition! No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

I don't eat anything prior to a workout. Just coffee about 30-45 minutes before. |

Anyone moved from the Eat Stop Eat type fasting to a circadian rhythm fast instead? I'm so ingrained with the fast all day and eat one meal at night, that the thought of my eating window being all day long rubs me the wrong way. But the research on it seems to point to some definite benefits.

True that. I'll probably just post progress pics maybe even make a YouTube channel and pocket the money for good food. I'm not a big supplements guy other than protein.

So if someone is starting off in weight training (with a home gym) what would be a good 3-4 exercises to do daily, or every other day, to get started?

Deadlifts, squats, pullups, military press, bench press.

don't rush through any of the exercises.. focus on the muscle you are trying to build.. even touch the muscle is applicable (curls)

If you're doing compound lifts there's no need for any of this bullshit as the lifts work more than one muscle group. I've never touched my muscles while lifting. I also don't do curls facing a mirror (oh the horror!).

My eating window is from noon until 8 pm. Noon is a protein bar that is 300 calories or less. I workout around 2 pm most days. Post workout protein shake around 3:30. I don't eat a full meal until 5 for dinner. |

Indeed. I recently read some interesting research showing that your eating window should be about 10 hours or less for improved health and longevity outcomes.
