Alright, I'm sick of fast food and want to go into a "cutting" period without doing cardio. While i can motivate myself to workout, I find it next to impossible to motivate my diet. I tend to just think "well if i work out today, i can eat bad." So 1) What would a good, non-time consuming, cutting diet be. 2) Good way to stay motivated with food. TY :)

haha after all today's talk I KNEW this was coming!!
Anyway, you're novice workout regimen in the other thread was pretty spot on. My question is....only 2 reps on some? I always 3 x10, or 3x12 depending on the exercise, when i first started out I stopped going a few months ago when i moved into my new house because I knew i wouldn't have that extra time. Now I'm thinking about joining the new Retro Fitness near me, also $20 a month. Question for your though Charly.....if you are seeking definition, what are some Isolated Exercises to STAY AWAY from??....for example, Biceps... do "this compound exercise" rather than "this isolated exercise". |
damn i havent worked out in god knows how long..
my job does a good job of keeping me in shape but i def could use some toning i think. senior year of hs i was 230lbs with like 0 body fat. im down to around 200ish and lots of fat..well not lots just not hs anymore. |

and brings up my point that DIET IS KEY! that should be your motivation.. instead of thinking "well if i work out today, i can eat bad," think this.. "well if I eat bad today, then I worked out for nothing" there's no real replacement for 6 solid meals a day.. each with an adequate amount of protein.. meals earlier in the day with a good amt of low glycemic carbs and meals later in the day with good fats |
shyt happens..lol when i was in HS and played lots of sports i was skinny as hell but toned at had a 6 pack.
now I'm 6'3, 200 lbs with a lot more muscle but MUCH less defined becuase I still have flab. Same as Captain said also, my diet sucks ass. I do eat some good stuff, but i negate it by each just as much shyt. |
Just don't buy sweets and ****! I just eat fruit when I get the urge for something bad to eat! At home, eat chicken! There are so many awesome ways to make it, especially on the grill!

my job has made me gain a lot of weight lol. :( I'm constantly fluctuating anywhere from 195-215, with like, 75% body fat. ROFL. My work out consists of getting in the car in the morning, getting out at work, walking outside a few times a day for a cig, then walking to the car again, then walking into my house. Suits me pretty well I think. I'm usually exhaust afterwards though.
|
i cant stand lifting weights anymore..i did it so much in hs that i can stand it. i try and do stuff here and there but i get bored easily. thats why i did mma for a bit but too expensive and time consuming in my life at the moment. im more of play sports, paintball, ride quad type of person. they all can keep me in shape i just need to do more of it and consistently. i have no need to be jacked like i was in hs...i only did it for sports, it also helped for buff purposes.

if you're seeking definition, they're no real exercises to stay away from.. definition will come along with decreasing body fat |

If you work out but eat ****ty, your negating any exercise you do. back to ground zero. The way to benefit from working out is to diet well also. I just have a hard time doing this, partly because I'm a ridiculously picky eater. |

lots of fiber helps... i eat whatever i want..i just happen to like alot of healthy foods. dont get me wrong im not a health nut. i eat when and what i want my job just allows me to do that. when you do as much walking and lifting as i do it helps. ive seen a 360lb guy work for me for about a year and lost 80lbs. manual labor ftw. |
Maybe Mr. Charles could post up a nice diet to live by in the first post? Pwitty please.

chicken breast, canned tuna, egg whites, lean beef, whey protein, micellar casein, etc low glycemic carbs: baked/raw sweet potatoes, long-grain brown rice, etc also carbs in fruits are great too.. just don't stuff your face with them good fats: fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, etc), olive oil, nuts, flax seed oil, etc |

I refuse to juice and can't afford most supplements anyway. So i guess I'll have to change my diet if I ever wanna see good results. |
