point wasn't about workouts etc. More that I found big differences in weighing myself at night as opposed to morning. For example, the other day I weighed myself first thing in the morning and was 69kg with 20% body fat and 34% muscle(not great i know). I weighed myself same day last thing at night...

I usually weigh myself in the morning(not everyday--no point I think). I've been losing the weight but fat and muscle percent have hardly budged. But today I weighed myself in the morning first thing then last thing at night out of curiosity. There was a 3 percent difference in the fat percent and t...

I last had a cigarette a year and two months ago. I won't say quit as that makes you feel like its over and lowers your guard. It was around the third or fourth attempt at quitting. I have emphysema now, thanks to it. In a way that made quitting easier/necessary. Still though, it was tough. method w...

I've started jogging over the past fortnight. Everyday bar Sundays--only around 2km. This coupled with a core routine and weights has produced great results. I did core and weights before but always slacked on cardio bar playing soccer once a week--it's made a big difference. The only downside is th...

I wanna start incorporating deadlifts into program. question is does anyone have the definitive way to do them--I checked YouTube but there's a zillion different ways and most different. I only have dumbells just now(hoping to get a barbell soon).

thanks.

your man in Japan.

Cheers. Have started with the advised push ups today--although not the dive bombers, bit out league(just now)
Hopefully I'll see a difference(why are the last little bits of fat the hardest to get rid of? grr)

Thanks for the informative replies. I've stuck with the planks and the pain has gone(must've been just a twinge from never having done them before) The planks I've been doing can be seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDQAIWWs2fE also added side prones and dead bugs to these and can definitley ...

I've been doing flyes and presses(with dumbells) for a while now and have noticed a decrease in the fat around the chest area but would I be better off ditching the flyes and switching to push-ups? Should say I'm not looking to build mass--just tone up.

all advice welcome.

Thanks. The lower ribs, are not in extreme pain or anything like that--not enough to stop me running or playing soccer. Will give it a couple of days and see how they go.

thanks.

Hi, I've recentley lost just over 37 pounds. I've been doing free weights, cardio, ab workouts and severely cleaned up diet(no mean feat considering half the recipes and ingredients are so hard to find over here). I've recentley started to do core. Just simple to begin with, such as planks and walki...
