Re: Newbie - losing weight and gym routine suggestions/comments

Hi dinkdankdo,

your diet was the main thing that hit me 1st, then your routine.

You are intaking a high carb diet and then doing a hell of alot of cardio for the goals you want.
On the food side. A buddy of mine in a similar situation used:-
1, 4eggs 1 whole 70g oats
2, protien shake and apple
3, turkey sandwich,salad on brown low fat mayo
4, protien shake + Bananna
5, 200g chicken beef fish, 250g spud + veg
6, 3whole boiled eggs, cottage cheese and 50g oats.
The yolks in the eggs will help you produce testosterone while your sleeping.
Try doing that 6 days and then hav a fat day where you eat as much of whatever as you want. this will make it so your body doesnt get used to your diet / metabolism and will actually make you burn more fat in the long run. Just drink moderate. Im t-total and it helps, if you do drink, drink wisely so you dont destroy a weeks hard work.

You should try putting some weights into your sesh, resistance training, if done proper is proven to burn as much fat as 30 - 40 mins on the tread mill. and it will help target fat around the areas trained. this will link into your diet with the muscles needing protien to grow/repair. you may be loosing focus because of your diet not meeting your training and your training not meeting your diet. If you alter your plan you will see result and get the bug!!

Remember these principles. Nutrition is just as important and training, training is as important as resting. good luck
