The Blue Board

so i saw one episode of the jersey shore, their exercise is walking on an incline. why dont you just sack up and start jogging? it gets your heartrate up more and is great for everything in your body except joints. if you cant run far in the beginning just do a little more every time and youll be up to 30 mins at 7.0 in no time.

Actually I think what boz is saying is that your body burns more fat when your heart rate is in a certain zone.

I did a workout like this 5 years ago and go into the best shape of my life, less than 10% bodyfat. I had a 4 day weight routine and did "low intensity" cardio where my heart rate only got up to a certain point. Did that 5 days a week. I was in great shape.

That being said, I found that type of cardio extremely boring. I just counted down the minutes until it was over.

Id really hope that your not calling me out. I would work circles around you either with weights and or aerobic activity. He asked about burning fat, not getting heart rate up real fast but again after your jackass comments I assume you dont know shit about.

are you the situation?

Well considering I have a real pic of me as sig you tell me?? I got nothing to hide, Its people like you that take a conversation here with people actually giving advice and you bring nothing to the table. So tough behind a screen, lets see who we talking to?

I CANNOT do Vodka.... I got so sick off of it when I first started drinking I can't even handle the smell hardly.

Try light rum? The darker the liquor the more toxins it has. I try to keep to vodka when drinking but I would guess that light rum would work the same.

Sugar bomb. And the hangovers are brutal.

Is it? I am not a fan of rum so I rarely drink it. I do know that darker liquors contain substantially more toxins ( I believe it is the result of the aging process and flavors added?) and therefore cause worse hangovers.

wow irrelevant.

ill play along, ive run a marathon, 5 halfs, 6' and 190. i never have had the need to just walk on a treadmill and not have a neck.

enjoy tbb, internet tough guy

Yeah I'm wrong on that. Read your post too fast. I was thinking of the darker and flavored rums.

Any kind of rum and the next morning I feel like I have a railroad spike buried in my forehead. Prob just me though.

OP. Listen: there is only one way to lose weight. be in a calorie deficit. period. 3500 calories = 1 pound. you can increase exercise to up the rate you burn every day, or you can decrease consumption. decreasing consumption is easier.

spend a couple weeks monitoring your calories seriously. add them up. if you are staying the same weight, then this is your maintenance weight. Drop your calories by 500 per day for a pound a week weight loss. period. count them for a few weeks and you will get the hang of it. cutting out 500 a day is very easy once you start counting. just round every meal to nearest 50 or 100, don't be anal or you'll give up.

drinking beer counts as calories, work them into your total, its all the same. drink a 12-pack of Bud 55 or Miller 64 instead of a 12-pack of light beer (even ultra). Boom, thats your 500 calories.

Personally, I love Guinness. I drink a couple pints of guinness, then switch to Bud 55.

Its easy. Go to bodybuilding.com, forums, nutrition forum, and read the stickied post on calculating calories. it will give you some guidelines on guestimating your maintenance rate, how much protein and dietary fat you should eat, etc. Its simple you just have to do it. After a few weeks it becomes second nature and its not a pain in the butt to count at all.

source: I've gone from almost 270 to 180 in the last 15 months, will have a 6-pack in the next 5 pounds or so, no gimmicks, drink beer almost every day, can squat and dead over 2x bodyweight.
