First of all thank you for your questions guys! Okay let's see..
^Thank You. I'm trying out that hip hop abs DVD. do you think it's worth trying? :P
You are welcome. Hmm I never heard about hip hop abs DVD. Googled and to be honest it's a waste of money. It's not rocket science.
We all have abs it's just they are not be visible in your case as your bodyfat is high, so what you have to do is lower bodyfat.
How can you do that?
Simple, cut down the calories (check nutrition label on stuff you buy), increase protein and water in your diet and eat as many smaller meals per day, it will increase your metabolism aka your body will work much faster. Stay away from juices, sugars, candies etc. Not like you shouldn't eat them at all just don't pig out.
i got a quick question
im trying to loose the excess fat from quitting smoking and i am running 6km at 5:30AM before the gym opens what can i do in the gym for 45 mins to burn more calories besides all the normal carido machines e.g (rower- bike) as im sick of them.
Hello Zebono, that's very neat plan you got there. Cardio in the morning on the empty stomach is the best.
I don't know how much excess fat you have but note that nutrition is most important. You can run all day if you want but if you eat high calorie food all day, nothing will change.
I don't want to get into detail but you get the idea. Less bad food, more water, more smaller meals over the day and you will reach your goal very soon.
As for training. If you are a busy guy you could skip doing exercises for arms, shoulders, and so on and focus on legs, back and chest. Why? Because they will require a lot of muscles in the game and burn more calories.
Keep it up buddy!
Yes Mr smith is right
try to do cardio in the morning on empty stomach it will burn more fat. drink 3 glass of water in the morning and do cardio.
you could try this i have never tried but if you try this remember to drink more than 2l cold water.
and if you cold drink water your metabolism will not stop working.
cold water is the best because your body wastes energy trying to heat up the water and your metabolism never stops working

Smith if you think this is wrong please tell me so i don't tell other people thank you
You are correct mate. Cardio right in the morning before first meal and everything else is the best. Thank you for helping.
Great thread, Smith! Any advice on a diet for a vegetarian? I don't want huge muscles but I definitely wouldn't mind to get my marked abs back. Thanks.
Thank you Kate. Hmmm vegetarian eh? That's tricky one. Most protein sources are from meat (fish, chicken, beef and so on). So getting protein and quality fat is the primary goal for you.
You could go with nuts (great protein and fat source), milk, soy, protein shakes. I cannot help you that much as I'm not a vegeterian but you can check this
article.
Does Ab Doer work or its some scam? ive been thinking to buy it, as its only needed to use 10minutes/day.
Oh my, no no no. Please note that most commercials that sound too good are scam. For such money, even less I could coach you and give you programs that will really give you results.
It's just waste of money mate.
10 minutes per day is nothing and again even if you train for an hour, if diet is not right, nothing will happen.
hey i wanna gain height(primary) and weight(secondary).
recommend me some exercises and food practices.
thanks.
That's bit bigger question mate. Height can be increased but not much, it all depends on your genetic. You can contact me for private coaching per week, I will see where you are now, what is your goal and how to reach it.
hey i recently joined a gym near my house.I got to admit that they make me practice 2 hours a day,it over 10 days.NO body growth.Can u recommend some food nutrients to me that i should take?
BTW:my body pains a lot because i give it my best but no results...M a vegetarian
First of all 2 hours per day will lead to over training. I train 4 days per week and no more than 50 minutes per workout. Everything above 1 hour is not going to help, just a waste of time.
So lower training to 3, maybe 4 days per week and make sure you eat enough meat (fish, chicken, beef), eggs, milk, cheese as for carbs eat potatoes, pasta, rice and so on. Fish is very very good protein source as it's very low in fat and even that fat is healthy for you.
Also 3rd but not least is to rest enough, do not do anything hard if you train on same day because you might over train and that's not good. Sleep at least 8 hours per day and that's all you have to know for now. Goodluck.
Well, I want to tone my arms & make bulgy biceps. For that I've been using dumbbells (4kg each) and doing the dumbbell exercise (the normal one) for days. I do almost 60-80 per day. But still my biceps have not grown.
Oh, my diet is a waste and I'm 100% vegetarian. I eat less but I'm not skinny. I'm 6'3" and weigh 80kg :p so you can imagine I'm healthy lol (not fat)
Just so I wanted to make biceps so that my large chest & tummy will look neutral with my thick arms. As currently my chest & stomach are large :p
EDIT:
I have never been to any gym nor I have consulted any Nutritionist. Just a lay guy :p
Alright blaze mate first of all if you want big arms, bulking triceps will benefit much more as triceps (3 muscles/heads) is much larger muscle than biceps (2 muscles/heads). So if you want that mass on arms, I would focus more on triceps.
For triceps at home, not much you could do but, good old push ups will help for sure.
As for biceps, well biceps curls are good but 4kg won't do any good to be honest. You need to increase weight if you want to see some progress. You could build your own dumbbells from sand and water bottles or something (5-8kg), be creative. I would however, recommend to join gym. You will have all necessary machines there, in other words it will speed up bulking process much faster.
I'm worried about my tummy here, it get's bigger and bigger. lol
is curl ups at home for about 15 mins everday enough?.. I do jogging everyother day though but no changes. I sit infront on computer all day :D
Hmmm, well if you do cardio every day something is not right. Are you resting enough? How many meals per day? And last but not least, what do you eat?
