The Org Fitness thread Every now & then, we need one of these threads don't you think? To make this work, I have to find a way to get my butt up ealy (like 5:00am) and hit the gym before going to work. By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |

PROGRAM FOR 2-3 MONTHS
DIET a) fruit for breakfast, juice and some bread-toasts, that's all b) rice or pasta, fish or seitan with dried fruit and/or lettuce/tomatoes should be all you need for dinner; replacing cow meat for seitan is recommended c) lunch should be barebones; some fish+toasts+water is recommended d) drink lots of water, by lots I mean lots e) forget about sweets, hamburgers, hot dogs, pork, fried chicken, sodas etc. + EXERCISE a) focus on running; at least 30-45 min four times a week b) sit-ups and push-ups are your DAILY friends c) doing lift-ups is healthy for the body even if you're not interested in bulky biceps d) if you have access to a pool or to a beach, by all means go there and swim, your body will benefit from it, mightly -- and one last thing, if this is about losing the fat first and then getting toned later, you MUST endure pain, you must feel HUNGRY (not necessarily WEAK- B-I-G difference-), otherwise you're doing it wrong [Edited 6/9/15 7:53am] | |

I've been hitting the iron consistently since 1998. Before that, it was off and on.
I'm still using a variation of Dr. Layne Norton's PHAT routine. I highly recommend it (women too)! | |

This is about discipline. And discipline is not an easily-created habit. | |

As some of you may know, I created a thread nearly 3 weeks ago stating that I was giving up fast food. So far I've been doing pretty good, today is day 21. In the beginning, I started working out about 3 days a week and doing some weights and strength exercises at home....well while I've still stuck with being sober from fast food, my gym regimine has been shaken up. Like you Purplejedi, my energy is just low. In the past, I used to take fat burners an hour or two before going to the gym to get my energy up, but the side effects of it (having chest pains while on the treadmill) caused me to give that up and try getting energy naturally, but I'm still trying to figure that out. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

Well i don't know why any trainer would say you should lose weight before thinking of "pumping iron" | |

I hear that cardio is the best way to start. I don't eat a whole bunch of junk food, eat fish, chicken, oxtails, lambchops. A lot of walking, a bit of jogging, 25 pushups. Just need a bit more work on the abs, and drink more water. | |

Stop, stop, stop.......Purple, you can do ANYTHING you want to do. You hang with me, and you'll be leg pressing serious weight in no time.
Norton's program took my workouts to another level. It'll do the same for you. | |

I love going to the gym cuz it's an outlet - otherwise it's in front of a computer screen for me! Easy motivation!
And I'm finding that I simply LIKE physical activity (I've never been into sports or anything in my life!)

Keep it up, PJ! I've discovered that even when you may not notice the results, others do. [Edited 6/9/15 21:56pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Yeah I did heavy lower body today. Sore, but feeling good.
Check out Dr. Norton's YouTube videos, especially the ones on nutrition. Great stuff. [Edited 6/9/15 19:25pm] | |

Keep a cold beer in your hand while exercising... I'm sooooo serious.
2. Option: Get a bike
3. Option: Stop wasting your money on a gym membership, putt your feet to pavement. Walkeverday pick a time and walk. I don't wanna hear about its boring... listen to music and walk at a brisk pace. It need be, get in your car, mark off 1 mile. 1.5 miles, and 2 miles. Walk 1 mile for two weeks, extended to 1.5 miles for 3 weeks, after 6 weeks walk 2 miles for rest of the summer / fall. After 12 weeks, do wind-sprints during your 2 mile walk, run 30 seconds... slow down to brisk walking. Summer/ fall you can switch up walking with riding a bike... winter go to the gym.
I'll be sending you my bill. You are welcome.
