Read the book The Abs Diet. I've lost over twenty pounds since changing my eating habits just before Christmas.

Re: I wanna lose 25lbs
Before buying The Abs Diet give it a quick read over. For me it wasnt all that practical a diet because of the food constraints. Learning how to just eat healthy offers a lot more diversity.
Diet is going to be the most important thing for you followed by working out |

Use a good weight training circuit routine. They're perfect for losing fat, and although not ideal you'll build a little muscle too. Escalating Density Training (EDT) that mattinxtc asked about the other day also works well. Do that 3 times a week. On off days do Tabata.

EDT may not be the greatest starting program though. I have a feeling that most would be extremely sore/out of shape to jump straight into that kind of workout.

[/ QUOTE ] It's definitely a tough workout, but the intensity automatically adjusts as the beginner does fewer reps in the alloted time. The problem with EDT for beginners I think is that form tends to suffer when you're trying to get as many reps in as possible. |

[/ QUOTE ] Please explain what you're talking about, Thremp. I was referring to EDT where the primary variable is the number of reps you're able to accomplish in the allotted time. Obviously a beginner will not be able to do as many reps in the same time period as an experienced lifter whose work capacity is much greater. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] |
