313/201.6/199

Couldn't seem to get satisfied yesterday. Consumed nearly 2900 calories yesterday, but carbs were only around 10 I think.

Definitely been hungrier this week in general with adding the lifting in to my routine. Weight still came down today even with the giant overage. Think the extra water from being sore is about to be gone

For anyone interested check out dietbet. You put up $25 a month and if you make your weight goal each month you can win money. Based on 10% weight loss over 6 month period I just finished one and got in on another starts today.

Also might want to check out Gym-pact, or just Pact in the app store. I've used it since October and it has really got me motivated to work out.

It uses money as an incentive. You link your debit card and set your "pact" for amount of workouts per week. It uses your location to make sure you were actually at the gym for at least 30 minutes. You set the penalty fee for missed workouts (mine is set to $5 per missed workout at 2 workouts per week). If you complete your pact, you get a cut of other peoples missed workout fees (usually 50 cents to $1 per week). The motivation is really in the lost money, not in what you would make.

It's not for everybody, obviously. If you don't have a gym membership, you can also link it to your step tracker. I've used it since October and have done at least 2 workouts per week since then. It's worth a look if you need a little more motivation.

Is there anyone here that would be willing to draft up a 3 day a week workout plan for me? I'd like to keep it at around an hour, so that I can have time to work in some cardio (treadmill or elliptical). If not, are there any free respectable places to look at workout plans? TIA

Edit: Also, for those that do workout, how do you deal with the insane soreness from previous days workouts. I did a modified 5x5 workout Monday (Flat bench, decline bench, dumb bell curls, squats, 1.5 mile run on treadmill at 7.0 speed) and I am still insanely sore today from the workout.

The more you workout, the less you'll deal with that "I can't even cough without feeling it" soreness. I've taken a month off before and the first week back is brutal.

Regarding the workout plan, what are your goals? That would probably help us help you.

The soreness kills my desire to go back though My thought process on it is, how am I supposed to make any progress when I feel that I can't even pick anything up or bend over to grab anything.

As far as what I would like to do, right now I am looking at losing weight. I was sitting at 204, and have dropped to 193 in a week. I am taking Phentermine and getting a B12 injection shot with some fat burners to help kickstart the whole process.

My ideal weight to drop to would be in the 160's. I am 5'7" and if I can get down to into the 160's then I would like to start adding muscle and getting definition. I know right now Cardio is my best friend which is why I will be running a mile and a half every time I hit the gym. I know that will help. I'm also aware of the light weight high rep routine for shedding fat through lifting, I just don't know what exercises to do and which muscle groups to work together.

I just started back to the gym last week. I decided to start back doing a routine of stronglifts 5x5. Even starting out light (squatting 95lbs) my legs were retarded for the entire week. Walking around in general sucked arse, however when I went to the gym the next 2 times (squat every workout with that routine) even though I could barely walk, once I started working out the soreness was forgotten about completely until I left. No soreness at all this week which in the past is typically how these things go for me. First week of working out after an extended break sucks donkey balls, everything after is pretty much okay as far as soreness/doms are concerned.

I guess I just have to have a stronger mind to push through it all. Also, after not having worked out in over a year, I went into the 5x5 workout by trying to essentially resume where I left off. Pretty dumb on my part. I downloaded the 5x5 app, but it seems misleading to me. IIRC, the intention of the workout was to do 5 sets/reps of 5 different exercises, with each set increasing in weight by 2.5 pounds on each side (5 pounds total). However, the 5x5 app that I downloaded only lists 3 workouts per day and it has you sticking to the same weight all 5 sets.

I don't know what the hell that is, if you're serious, and if it's legal for Active Duty personnel to take

the stronglift's 5x5 is simply 2 workouts and done as such:

Week 1:
A- Squat 5x5, Bench 5x5, Bent-over Rows 5x5
B- Squat 5x5, Deadlift 1x5, Overhead Press 5x5
A

Week 2:
B
A
B

The app starts you off at the same weight on everything (typically the bar) and then yes, you increase weight by 5 every time you succeed, except dead-lifts which are a 10lb increase. I started mine off with 95 on bench and squat, 65 I think on bent over row, 45 on overhead press and 135 on dead-lift.

You can also supplement that core workout by adding in pull-ups and dips. Starting off with a lower weight to help get your form good and to let your body adjust is definitely going to be helpful. The weight will increase faster than you expect it to which is why I'm not sweating the bullshite starting numbers.

I swear every time I get to 200.x within 2 days I'm magically at 203. Oh well, maybe next week things will cooperate. I just want to see 199, don't even care if I stay there or go under it...just want to see it one day and then I can go back to the 200's.
