Unabomber Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 Alright, I've found the settings and turned the signature off!! If it wasn't for that setting I'd be struggling for material on here tonight.
Merging Cultures Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 Alright, I've found the settings and turned the signature off!! If it wasn't for that setting I'd be struggling for material on here tonight. I'm going to look at food focus. I generally eat quite healthily, but double portions. Along with a lot of beer. Did you exercise??
Unabomber Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 I'm going to look at food focus. I generally eat quite healthily, but double portions. Along with a lot of beer. Did you exercise?? Yeah I did cardio to along with calorie counting to shift the initial weight, and now I just do weight training. Using a site like food focus is good as it allows you to eat what you like and still be able to see that you are eating at a deficit and will therefore be losing weight.
Merging Cultures Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 I'm going a different route to when I lost weight in 2012, this time I'm doing a lot of strength training, and just started rugby again. I've been told more muscle mass means I'll burn calories more quickly. So, getting some muscles on and running in rugby should work nicely. The altitude here kills me when I run though.

I've been told more muscle mass means I'll burn calories more quickly. So, getting some muscles on and running in rugby should work nicely. The altitude here kills me when I run though. If I was to start over I would definitely focus primarily on weight training. Just work out how many calories you need (as you don't want to eat too little) and make sure you eat enough protein, lift heavy at least 3 x week and you'll be sorted.
Unabomber Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 Don't forget to take your multi. YOLO. This isn't the misc brah.
MooseBreath Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 This isn't the misc brah. You are saying anything right now. Stop.
Unabomber Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 You are saying anything right now. Stop. What's up? You seem mad.
MooseBreath Posted 17 February 2014 Posted 17 February 2014 The problem is you're focusing on the things in life that don't really matter. When I was a kid I had hopes and dreams. We all did. But over time, the daily grind gets in the way and you miss the things that really matter, even though they are right in front of you, staring you in the face. I think the next time you should ask yourself "Am I on the right track here?". I don't mean to be rude but people like you I really pity. So maybe you could use the few brain cells you have and take advantage of the knowledge I have given you now. Good luck.
Tommy G Posted 18 February 2014 Posted 18 February 2014 I am by no means healthy but trying to do a bit of fitness recently myself. used to smoke more than just socially and liked plenty of Guinness. Since the new year I havent drank that much and stopped any smoking altogether. My brother (JonnyBoy on here) introduced me to this http://www.ldnmuscle.com/ As you can see from the website they do various packs you can buy, which are complete programmes for both food and exercise. I am doing the beginners pack at the min. It is really good for detailed work outs and nutrition info. they also have twitter. Some of the transformations on there are pretty staggering. it is all natural aswell, no roid heads on there. i think the lads that run it are all investment bankers no like some of the toe rags you see in the gym trying to sell you allsorts. worth a read if you need a helping hand anyhow

DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 18 February 2014 Posted 18 February 2014 Just passed the seventeen and a half stone mark. Time to shed a few pounds.
Tincy Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 Just done my first ever session at klick fitness gym tonight, only did an hour but really enjoyed it, anyone have any decent food plans??
ADK Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 I've become quite addicted to meat free meat (if that makes sense), like quorn but I've found some non branded ones just as nice. Generally a high protein content (about 20%) and just feels easier to digest.
JonnyBoy Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 currently 206lbs, 6ft about 15 %bf cutting from start of march on a calorie defecit of around 400 kcals don't want to cut too quick as i might lose all my gainnnssssssssss
JonnyBoy Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 like my brother mentioned, check out the LDNmuscle boys, they give ridiculously good advice, meal plans, different packs you can buy for different goals. Protein recipes even gym tracklists and they have got time for everyone

Unabomber Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 Cheers guys good advice, am I meant to be aching and all sorts after the gym because ATM I feel fine, will probably be not able to move in the morning ??If you haven't done anything in a while then you will definitely be feeling it tomorrow.
Tincy Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 If you haven't done anything in a while then you will definitely be feeling it tomorrow. First ever time in the gym, but I'm "fairly" active with my job
Unabomber Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 First ever time in the gym, but I'm "fairly" active with my jobWell it will depend if you worked muscles that you haven't before, you'll soon find out
SystonFox Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 Someone explain to me what a macros is? I read about it all the time but I've no idea! Currently I'm doing some fad diet where I eat next to fvck all all day for a week. You're all gonna tell me it's not a good idea now....
Saxondale Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 I need to trim down again. Since stopping smoking I've been eating like a right fat ****er.
Unabomber Posted 27 February 2014 Posted 27 February 2014 Someone explain to me what a macros is? I read about it all the time but I've no idea! Currently I'm doing some fad diet where I eat next to fvck all all day for a week. You're all gonna tell me it's not a good idea now.... "Macros" is short for macronutrients which are the types of food groups consisting of protein carbohydrates and fats. People who track their macros set their goals (cutting bulking or maintaining) and then work out how many calories they need to consume before calculating the macronutrient amounts.For example an active male looking to lose body fat while maintaining muscle mass might require 2500calories 180g protein 80g fat and the rest carbohydrates to lose 1lb a week. It varies on the individual, and although it may seem complicated it's easy if you use a food tracking site/app. It is also a guaranteed way to lose weight without following a fad diet.
