*.* 2013 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
**From the 2012 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'd like to report what i ate today & how I behaved - still no fitness - i'll work that way.
However, today - one Kirkland (Sams) Ensure - French Vanilla. Waters all day - I did use sugar in my coffee this AM. Tonight - baby asparagus, ground chicken from the farmers markt - which is grain fed, serious quality - I'll quote the farm, upon request. Some hot sauce added. Not a culinary treat - but fuel for my diet. How is that? My goals are to lose appx. 11ish lbs. + define and tone up. I'm going to start w/ weights on Saturday. This is how I succeed and what works for me - little 'baby-step' goals. Please Advise on anything... Ty in advance! |

WTF are you talking about? I asked if you only ate those two meals for the entire day, which consisted of a ensure shake and the dinner you mentioned? Or did you eat more?

You will definitely want to keep your protein levels up and drop the carbs in meals but not eliminate them completely. Easy protein sources are chicken, eggs, tuna, lean ground turkey/beef.
What is your bodyweight? Would you be willing to count calories?

I started getting back into working out in the beginning of March basically. Have gone from 180 down to 163 right now, and have done it with minimal cardio. Lifting 5 days a week, and the 6th day is a 20-30 minute run. Day 7 is the off day. I'm getting closer to my football playing days shape.
Actually I've become obsessed with it now. Healthier eating, and lifting have become a lifestyle change. |

Not at all.
In any case, I'll echo what's already been said. You need to WAY up that protein intake, and don't cut your calories TOO low. If they're too low for too long, you'll end up crashing out of the diet and just gorging yourself on the cookie aisle at the grocery store. You need to count your calories using a website like myfitnesspal.com. |
