The semi-fatties that want to lose weight
 

Here we gather: the semi-fatties.

Original weight-loss thread:
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showfl...=0#Post11623433

So I want to get toned and lose about 10~15 more lbs and start working out. In the weight-loss thread several have displayed an interest as well. I'm 5'8" at 163 lbs and looking to get somewhere around 150. Anyone else would like to start up an accountability bet or anything?

Oh btw, in case you haven't already, check out kyleb's Health & Fitness forum. It has some information on weight-loss and working out. (I figured to post here because it'll get more traffic)

I too am 5'8'' and 165-170. Yet, I am way too lazy to get to 150.

man that sounds so skinny. i'm 6'1" 175 and I have a little chub and almost no muscle. i've been 160 before and pretty much everyone i talked to mentioned how skinny i was.

also, there's a whole variety of body weight exercises you can do in the comfort of your own home that are just as good as weights.

Cmon Siccjay!

Chh,
Yea running is really really boring imo but I've been running for the past two weeks and I feel pretty good about it, being able to keep up and all. At least i won't gain weight until school gym opens again.

Start there for lower body.


For upper body, you've got your standard pushups. Then you can move your hands all over the place to work different muscles. Learn to do hand stands then hand stand pushups. Learn to do a planche. You can do pull ups/chin ups anywhere by folding a towel over over a door.

Check out the book The Naked Warrior for more.

Never Gymless is also a good book on the subject.

BTW this is a great product:
