alright guys, i need some help with this one.

im 5'8" and 190lbs.
i'm 15, so im not too old, and it's not like im really fat, im just moreseo average and want to get more definition in my body.

i just started this at the beginning of the week, and wanted to know from someone who know what thei'r talking about if this will add some definition.
I heard more reps and less weight is for definition..so it's not too heavy.

Workout Routine
-Ride bike 5 miles, or run 1 mile.
-3 sets of 20 sit ups.
-3 reps of curling 20lbs 15 times.
-6 sets of shoulder rotations forward and backward, 5 times each, with 15lb dumbbells in each hand.
-Tri-cep workout where i hold a 15lb dumbell behind my head and lift it, almost military press style, 10 reps with 3 sets.

I've also been trying to eat more protein, such as eggs, and drink only water.

I was just wondering if this was enough to drop excess fat and weight, and maybe add more defined muscle.
I'd appreciate any feedback, pointers, or suggestions from anyone who has experience with this.

Thanks alot guys.

I've been working out more than you could imagine, not mentioning my job.

I'm quite certain you've been training fewers years than me, not to mention my work.

Once again, the smith machine is a waste of time. If you really want strides in strength, use some freeweights. And as for isolation, I do loads of isolation after my compounds. I know what I'm doing.

Stay close minded it will do you well in life.

I doubt I'll plateau anytime soon, as for you and your smith machine, I can't say the same.

Dude... don't even go there. Who the fuck you think you are.... when I'll see you press as much as I do I'll be convince you "know what you're doing".

I labor for a masonry crew, and have been for 3 years. Good pay, and not that hard, for me atleast. As for lifting, I lifted off and on for 2 years prior to this past winter. I learned a fuckload along the way, and far more over the past 8 months. I started lifting seriously after I recovered from a heart condition back February, and have been hitting the weights since.

Sorry to hear about your heart condition. I truly wish you the best, and I'm glad it didn't discourage you to train.

However I was right about your training experience... 2 years is nothing really...
Did study 3 years personal training. Have been working in Gym 4 years now (Personally own mine) Have been training for the past 6 years.

Dude... don't even go there. Who the fuck you think you are.... when I'll see you press as much as I do I'll be convince you "know what you're doing".

I don't need to convince some douchebag on Newgrounds.com, I could really care less if you think I am unknowledgeble. But, as many here, and in many other places know, I know what the fuck I'm talking about. You on the other hand, with your close minded views regarding bench alone, obviously don't have a clue. You may want to expand the variety in your workouts, since all you have mentioned is benching. You probably have twigs for legs and a get hanging over your dick, and a horrible bodymass to lift ratio in the big 3.

Just assuming here, but unless you can prove me wrong with pictures or videos, I'll continue to think what I said. Post all of your lifts, from bench, to incline, to deadlift, to squat, to snatch, to clean, to C&P, to military press, to bent over rows, to curls, to pullups, to dips, and everything else in your highly expansive list of movements.

True you don't need to prove me anything. But I did post pictures on me in this very thread previously have you? I answer a question about how to improve chest strengh. Where was the need for the legs tell me? My legs are fine thanks for your concern.
You want numbers...
Bench 355 pounds for 6 good reps
Bench Incline 315 pounds for 8 good reps
I don't do dead lift but stiff dead lift for I want to work the lower back mainly. 455 pounds (I would do more with romaine or straight dead lift)
I clean squat 500 pounds and I can push up to 560.
At the moment I do dips with 120pounds attach to me and I could put much more if it wouldn't be my 5th exercise of the routine.
DB military press I use 120 pounds dumbbells for set of 10
DB bent over row I use 150 pounds dumbbells for set of 12
I curl 70 pounds db
I do Leg press with about 1,650 pounds.

Anything else you want to know. I'll post pictures after you sir. Just has a preview 220pounds 5'8" under 10% B.F. and I'm 22

p.s. Has it cross your mind that the guy didn't have the perfect technique to lift? I mean you aren't there to see how he lifts.

im havin trouble building up my chest muscles can any one tell me how i should do it? oh and also my abs need work >.<

ps: i know this is the second time i posted this, but i didnt know if anyone saw it or not.

Soldier, I have some tips for you. you have a good workout routine, so make sure you are consistent with it, but here are a few things i would recomend:

Up your running a little. I would go for 2-4 miles if you aren't an experienced runner.

Dont drink only water, unless you truly have a weight problem. but to me, it sounds like you are pretty fit. what i would do is drink milk and fruit juice, and maybe take an essential daily vitamin.

be sure to play lots of sports, active team sports like soccer, basketball, and football work on alot of your muscles.

aside from that, you should be good to go.

Now, NG Gym, I have something to ask YOU.

before I start, i am 5' 10", 135 pounds, 14 years old. I love running and i'm on the cross country team, we generally run about 4-6 miles every morning. i'm pretty fit, i train/play sports alot, and i am good at controlling my nutrition, but right now i sort of have a problem.

i just got back from a 5 day soccer camp, it was very competitive and we did around 7 and a half hours of soccer a day, divided into 3 daily sessions. i did pretty good, pushed myself well but not too hard, and now i am back home with many sore muscles (mainly my feet, legs, and groin)

i should be going to cross country tomorrow, and i could probably make it, but would it just make my problems worse? should i jog it out, or take it easy for a few days?

also, is this like, a club? and if so, would i be eligible to join it?

thanks alot guys, i appreciate it

What a coincidence. I just started 2 weeks ago and I have read more health articles than most people in their life.

Errmm.... my previous posts seems to have gone unnoticed.
Can anyone shed some light upon it?

Yeah , i would also like an answer , (check top of the page)

3 and a half hours a week. thats 30 minutes a day. if you really want to lose that much weight, i would recomend doing 1-2 hours of exercise a day. control what you eat, and drink too. dont drink any soda, slurpees, or milkshakes. dont eat any candy, and try to snack out at a maximum of once a day. meaning, chips, crackers, cookies, only eat those once a day if at all. boxing is good exercise i know, try running or biking too. if you have alot of money, consider investing in a treadmill.

Thoughts, comments?

Hmm, everything you are doing seems like the only thigns you can do. could you be more specific on your exercise routine and diet? maybe you are just eating too much fat. you say you are eating 'healthy' foods like protein, but now that you have your muscle, it might be time to lean away from beef and that sort of stuff, it is usually high in fat, cholestrol, and calories. try eating (non-fried) chicken and fish. also, be sure to eat the true healthy foods, fruits and veggies, and stick to a balanced diet. hope this helps!

Ok, I don't want to turn out like BBR, so yeah lol.

Im 5"8' and around 77 kg. I have a pretty active lifestyle but it's all routine really. On weekdays I play Rugby for about 45 minutes each morning at school. Then 20 minutes of basketball, then another 40 minutes of it. I play out in the backyard regularly doing some bball drills, wokring up a sweat.

Yeah so, I wanna maybe get down to 50-60 kg. What is the best way I could go about doing this?

I recently started using BSM protein drink called Syntha 6. Does anyone know anything about it? Rigth now I drink 2 shakes a day and work out once every 3 or 4 days. It has been working but does anyone know if there is a more efficient way to work it? Oh, and does anyone have their own recipes for how much water and ice to mix becuase right now I'm looking for the perfect mix. Right now I drink 4 oz. water, 4 oz. milk, a little crushed ice and a scoop of powder. It is working right now but I want to know if there is anything better.

I do a serious full body workout every 3 or 4 days. I would do arms one day, core the next, and so on but I just can't get to the gym that often. I hope to change and get to the gym 4 or 5 times a week as soon as I get my license but for now I can only get there so often.

^^

As for pictures of myself, I have all of my pictures and progress pics and what not on another site, I'd gladly link it if you want. One question, with lifts like you posted, are you by chance on any gear? They seem awfully high for someone your size, not impossible by any means, but high nonetheless.

Just curious... I'd be glad to have that link.
Any gear? If you are referring to juice no I'm not on and never have been. What's for supplement I try to stick with what's natural (creatine, protein, glutamine, hmb, tribulus, vitamins) but I have to admit I did some pro hormones once years ago.... it did help me get to my 3 plates on the bench.

You said you posted some pics here, I haven't seen them, to my knowledge. But either way, I've got to go run some errands and probably stop by the gym afterwards.

Well I see you're motivated. Good!
Did my chest/triceps yesterday and I'm about to do my worst day. Legs... god I hate them when I feel tired... and I'm very tired today. Anyways no pain, no gain they say.

June 1st.

124 lbs.
5'4 1/2.

------
July 1st.
128 lbs.
5'6.
------
August 1st.
117 lbs.
5'6 1/2.

At first I was interested in developing a six pack, so I started going on Bodybuilding.com
for tips, I used some of the information, and the rest of the time I went on my treadmill.

After a week of doing this, I noticed I was getting some heart aches, and I was worried
about getting a heart attack, or something like that.

(Before this I had no intention to gain muscles, loose weight, I was very unactive.)
So, me being worried.. I took a rest, a two week rest.

In those two weeks, I was lifting my small 3 pound weights - Laugh all you want,
but they're good for you while you're watching TV. I also didn't eat very much,
I found myself drinking lots and lots of water.

Today being August 1st, I had to check my current weight. 117 lbs, wow.
I lost 11 pounds in the coarse of one month. I want to weigh 115 lbs.

I know that once I gain muscle, I'll gain pounds, that's a fact. But for now, I want to get rid
of some of the fat that is hanging from my stomach.
(when I'm sitting down, I get four stretchmarks on my stomach afterwards.

So once I'm done getting rid of the two pounds, I'll start working out much more.
Now that High school is approaching, I'll be going to my school gym more often.

(I'm 14.) Huzzah.

i need some help guys what are reps and sets? and also can somebody give me some adive on how to get abs? thanks alot in advance^_^

Reps = Repetitions of the particular exercise.... eg. 10 reps.
Sets = The amount of times you do the exercise overall... like 1 set could equal 10 reps... and if you're doing 3 sets thats 30 reps.

Like I've mentioned before, I'm 14, and now weigh 117 lbs, and am 5'6. Last month I was 128 lbs. I basically lost 10/11 pounds.

I basically achieved this by shredding some pounds by using my treadmill and avoided eating junk food/snacks.

My parents seem a bit worried, thinking that I might be anorexic if I keep this up. But when I look in the mirror, I still see myself as a chubby person.

I also have a beer belly, which I want to get rid of. I'm all in for the abs, that's my main focus for working out. I know that in order for me to gain muscles, I'll gain pounds.

All I have is a treadmill and 5 pound weights. Yeah, I doubt that shit will do me any good.
So, I decided to create myself a health plan.

I want to know if you approve, and if I should add anything else in there. Every morning I will stretch, do 20 push ups with my fist, 20 sit ups and 20 crunches, and then go out and jog for 15 minutes.

For the afternoon, the only thing I have planned out is 20 more push ups with my fist, and 20 sit ups and crunches.

Do you know any fitness activities that I can do at home, that don't require me to lift weights?
I just need to know some things I can do on the spot.

I also want to know how many calories and food I should be consuming at this age. Thanks.

According to the information that you provided you would need aproximately 2200 calories a day to mantain your weight. In order to lose weight you would decrease your caloric intake by about 15% to 20%. So if you wanted to lose fat you would go for about 1800-2000 daily.
As for your abs try starting with 3 sets of 10-15 sit-ups. Gradually start increasing your number of sets until you can do 5 sets. Do aerobic exercises for at least 30 minutes a day in order to burn the extra fat in your stomach, and watch what you eat...this means no junk food, and plenty of vegetables and fruits.
I would recommend buying a fat percentage measuring caliper in order to track your weekly progress instead of the weight scale. This way you make sure that what you have lost is fat and not muscle mass.
Make it a habit to eat healthy, and really start getting into the habit of reading nutrition labels, and counting calories. A combination of exercise, nutrition, and knowledge is the only way to guarantee you results.
If you have any questions regarding exercise routines, or nutrtion do not hesitate to private message me.
I hope this helps.

Hello all. This thread looks very imformative and helpful so I'm hoping some of you more clued up members can give me some advice.

I guess a general background about myself would be helpful to start: Im male, 19 years old, almost 20. Im 6'0" and approximately 11 stone give or take - Its been a while since I stepped on the scales but its a rough estimate. I try to walk instead of drive as much as possible however due to the nature of my job, I spend at least 48 hours a week sat on my arse in front of a computer (4 x 12 hours shifts in a control room) never mind time spent watching tv or playing games in the afternoon.

Unfortunately, like most of my generation, I perhaps drink too much alcohol and consume too much junk food. Added to my less-than-physical job and slowed down metabolism and I've ended up with quite the 'puppy fat' around the stomache and waist and generally untoned chest. Furthermore, my arms have never exactly been strong and I'm quite keen to build some muscle there too. Im my school years til the day I left, I was an 100m sprinter so my legs aren't in quite such bad shape but I still think they could do with some work.

So down to the nitty-gritty. Basically, I'd like to lose the weight and fat I've gained around the stomache and then eventually tone that and my ab's/chest, as well as my arms and generally improve my all-round fitness and stamina.

I'm planning on joining a gym ASAP and plan to go for an hour everyday, however, its the additional trianing I could be doing at home that would be helpful. Or any exersize regimes I could be doing at the gym would also be appriciated.

I look forward to your comments.

I would say Calipe has a good general plan. I would suggest buying a Swiss Ball, and using it to do crunches on. This has helped me with working on abs and such.

For push-ups, position your knees on the edge of your bed, or something similar in the area you use to work out. Rest your hands in the push-up position on the floor, and then pull them towards you about one hand length. This will get a great burn and awesome results.

If you have Comcast, you can go to OnDemand in the fitness section, and you will see something called "Ripped Core." This exercise uses the Swiss Ball only, so you won't need any extra equipment if you already have one. This is a great exercise that I think has helped a lot for me. It's by a lacrosse coach, so if you're going out for lacrosse (like I am), it will probably help a bit more.

In case you don't have on demand, I'll try to explain the workout:

1. Lay face-down, centered, on the swiss ball. Extend your left arm and right leg. Pull them towards the center of the ball, and then back out. Repeat ten times per set: left-right, right-left, left-left, right-right.

2. Stay in the same position, but bring your hands closer to the ball. Lean your head forward, and rest it on the ground about in-between your hands. Push with your upper body to bring your legs up to a diagonal, then bring them back down. Again, repeat 10 times.

3. Now, sit on the ball. Twist your upper body towards the right, and then left. Do this 10 times to each side.

4. Now, move the ball away, and stand up. Bend forward, and use your hands to "walk" out to the point where you can do a push-up. Do a push-up, then "walk" it back. Do this 10 times.

5. The final exercise. It is difficult to get into the correct position on this one, but you'll get it in a couple repetitions of it. Rest your shins on the ball, and rest your hands in the "down" of the push-up position. Push up with your hands while simultaneously using you abs to pull your legs forward, in a kind of crunch. Again, do ten reps per set.

I do this exercise every day after a run in the mornings. I usually have a day of break from running once in a while, but I usually do extra reps of the routine that day.

If you are having trouble or need to discuss something about this, feel free to PM me.

Well apparently I missed this thread, so I made my own, sorry about that. You can let my thread die. Now for what I would like is some tips on what I can do to get, well, extremely in shape I guess.

When ever I run I tend to go for about 5 miles but I always listened to music and I'm kinda now dependent on it. I just can't seem to go running without music. I always used it to take my mind off of things or pass the time while running. Whenever I do any kind of exercise 10+ minutes I, well almost, need music. You think thats a bad habbit?

Now onto diet. I heard, have no idea how true it is, that if one eats 5-6 small meals a day it is much better for losing weight than the normal 3 staple meals per day. Anyone actually heard of this and or eat like this? As for what I actually eat, I eat a lot of oatmeal, fruit and turkey sandwhiches. I do eat a lot of pretzels but they barely have any fat, they just have some carbs, not a lot though. Also I try to drink 8 glasses of water per day, normally don't get to 8 but more like 5-7, is that good for losing weight? You guys have any diet plans. I currently weigh 125-130 and am around 5'7-9, fairly skinny I guess.

And yes I put that in my thread, but here it belongs, sorry for making my own thread.

As for weight training, what do you recommend? I actually don't have access to a gym, but I do have a pull up bar and a punching bag, I tend to do a lot of calenstetics (sp?). I know when you do use wieghts its best to work on a certain area per day. And I heard free weights are supposed to be better than using resistence machines when working out in the gym. They work out your compound muscles. Sorry again for making my own thread.

hey guys, i'd like to join this crew, i body build so i figured this would be a good group to join.

Eating 5-6 times a day (small portions of 500 calories or less) is actually better for your metabolism than eating 3 times a day. I eat 5 times a day, and the results are amazing. What you have to do is balance your macronutrients ratios. I do around 50% carbohydrates, 30% protein, 30% fat (good fat sources), and keep the calories per meal to less than 500 calories. This will put your body and metabolism into calorie-burning mode, since you are eating so often your body "knows" that you are feeding it every 3 hours, so it does not hold on to anything because it does not need to.
If you want to learn more about this subject I recommend you read "Burn the fat feed the muscle" by Bodybuilder Tom Venuto.

Well, I forgot to mention I drink a lot of protein shakes, and I heard from a friend that they apparently don't help unless you already eat a lot of protein and wokr out a lot. Is this true, cause honestly they don't taste very good and if they don't help buld muscle without working out I rather not drink them.

And thank for the tips on eating, I'll continue to eat 5 meals a day.

Protein shakes are over-rated. You don't need protein shakes unless you are not getting your protein from other sources. If you eat 5 meals a day, you shouldn't need to drink protein shakes because one of the "secrets" of eating so often is to alway have a source of protein in each meal. In other words, is not a complete meal unless you combine one source of protein, with a source of starchy carbohydrates, and/or fibrous carbohydrates.
Another tip, stick with your schedule. DO NOT skip meals, and eat EVERY 3 hours. In other words, be consistent; let your body know that you are going to eat every three hours. Why every 3 hours you might ask? Because it takes around 2 to 3 hours for the food in your stomach to digest, so you would not want to be pilling up more food into your previous undigested meal.
The only reason protein shakes are useful is for when you know that you will not be able to have a complete meal for some reason, but otherwise just get your protein from lean protein sources such as fish, turkey or chicken breast, legumes, nuts, or reduced or fat-free milk, cheese, or yogurts.
