Hello, I am currently about 168-170 lbs. Want to get down to about 155-160 range. Im only 5'6" so proportionally its larger. Due to cover/kids im no longer in a gym but I do have a home gym now.
Equipment is Kettlebells, Squat rack, 55lb dumbbells, bench, pull up bars, slam balls, 20 lb vest, and a norditrak bike.
I get bored easily so I am trying high volume. The goal is to cut body fat. Im doing 5 exercises and 10-20 reps per exercise and 10 sets. Similar to a CrossFit program but no olympic lifts for time. Every day is different which makes it fun. I think diet is my biggest hurtle though. I stress eat a lot during the day with work.
Yesterday I did with the vest, 10 sets of 20 squats, 20 pushups, 20 step ups, 20 inverted rows on the squat bar and 15 pull-ups. its fun, keeps you from getting bored, and about puked at the end.
Mid morning Snack: Nuts or banana and I usually work out around 10-11 am.
Lunch can vary between leftovers, PB&J & Apple, Smoked Salmon and veggies....
Dinner: Typically a protein, with veggies and rice or potato.
Wife is dairy and gluten free so I am mostly as well. I think my biggest killer is if chips are around I have no self control or I have a snack before dinner. Also beer, work gets stressful so a beer or 2 several nights a week.
After this week though with work meetings im stopping the beer during the week and really trying to focus on eating good. I would say I eat well 70% of the time maybe 80%?
Hello! Exercise is good, but if there is no balanced diet, it will be of no use. I exercise in the gym on the program Chloe Ting, training 30-50 minutes, with and without loads. They are quite heavy, especially for beginners, but effective. Also do not forget about sleeping for at least 7 hours, it affects your condition and weight.
UGH, chips, for me that is at least 10-pounds......love them thingies, can eat
drumfuls of corn-chips.
Probably going to take tightening-up your diet, that is usually 80% of the weight-loss battle.
