Hi, im new here but i already lost 25 pounds over the last 2 years, droping from 150 to +/- 125. I dont have real before pics but i decided to take some today and see what i can do
if u have any advice for wt training program id apreciate
First time for me with pics on a forum so i give it a try
Sorry for the quality of pics, i took them myself a few mins ago
main concern is about fatty lowerback. I work it out at the gym but i know i must lose some other weight to tighten it. pounds are really hard to drop at 127 and i really love to eat...shame on me.
What does your weight routine look like? I would shoot for a total body workout three days a week with HIIT 2 days a week and one day of slower cardio.
For weights, shoot for things like lunges variations, deadlift variations, squat variations, dip variations, row variations, pullup variations, pushup variations, bench press variations, and military press. Notice that I put "variations" after each exercise. I think its important to constantly shock your system by doing variations of each exercise. If you do standard pushups one day, do incline or decline the next. If you do walking lunges one day, do side or stationary lunges the next. If you squats one day, do wall sits the next. If you do flat bench press one day, do incline, decline or flys the next. These changes will keep your body from getting used to doing the same thing day in and day out. Also, lift heavy. You should NOT be able do more than 15 reps of each exercise. Optimally I would shoot for 6-10 reps on each exercise again switching it up. If you do 3 sets of 10 one day, increase the weight a bit and do 4 sets of 8 the next. Again, this keeps your muscles guessing.
As I said, you honestly look GREAT!! Keep up the hard work!!
real problem is with diet. The main thing is that i LOVE to eat so i don't eat that bad, i just eat too much. If i really wanna lose fat im gonna have to watch this. it will be easier in a month when school will be over, i wont eat emotions anymore and will eat at home alot.
This is what workout looks like these days. I lift on monday, wednesday and friday. Im not sure about the name of every exercise so hope youll understand everything. I make 3 sets of 15. When i can do it i increase the weight and start over again.
I already make 2-3 cardio sessions, should maybe do more than 1 HIIT. Talking about HIIT, not 100% sure what i do actualy is:
on the treadmill
warm up: jogging at 7 km/h
interval 1: 1 min running at 12 km/h
interval 2: 2 minutes speed walking at 6,5 km/h
(7 times for 21 minutes)
cool down: 4 minutes jogging at 7 km/h
if it isn't, then what should i do? i do cardio on the treadmill and elliptical trainer. thanks in advance
well i've actualy CHANGED fullbody for fractionned bodypart workout on the advice of haunt who's an ancien powerlifter who has trained for years with fitness competitors. That's why since 3 weeks i'm trying it this way but i'll look for results and if i dont get any i'll come back to fullbody
About the adductors i totally agree, i should bring back lunges. i should also try deadlifts that i never had in workout
Hey thanks for the feedback! Prompted me to take a squiz at your pics. You sound like you've made some pretty decent progress and you look like you're at around the same point as I am - I think we're at the hardest part though, because our body likes the bit of fat we have even if we don't!
