The Workout Thread

Why couldn't he just wear shorts?

Because that would make too much sense.

He wanted to shed all weakness and have NOWHERE TO HIDE.

What does everyone do to cut down? I need some new perspective here because I'm having trouble with the last bit of belly fat. I switched a lot of my heavy lifting time to cardio which is 5-6 times per week either for an hour on the elliptical or running outside (I do about 4 miles at a 9 minute pace). I still lift for 1.5-2 hours 3 days per week. The fat loss seems to have slowed down and I feel I can truly maintain if I can obliterate what's left here. Suggestions are welcome.

You cant out train a bad diet.

I get all my clients tracking their calories (myfitnesspal) to figure out what needs to be changed.

When the calories burnt are more than calories taken in, the fat goes away.

For me personally i dont do any specific cardio for my six or eight pack, its all done in the kitchen. Prepare all my own meals. No white foods. Low carb. Tons of veg. Tons of brotein. Lift heavy as hell. Do lots of circuits to keep heart rate up.

Gonna be spring soon - bust out the half shirts.

That app is the business. My friends used it to track their diets and they ended up losing over a hundred pounds each.

Can anyone recommend a good ten minute morning exercise routine? I don't have the time for gym visits for now, but that's definitely my next step.

Dan John's 10,000 Kettlebell Swing workout. This along with a clean diet will help remove what's left of your belly fat.

Maybe 7 minute workout?

There is a super bitchin' bodyweight workout from that book Arnold wrote in the 70's. Try to track down that maybe? It's a good way to transition from nothing, to something, to dude flex if you want.

Right now I'll settle for "doesn't obviously sit in chairs in moving vehicles and a desk all day" to start. Minor weight training will probably only start after I have room in an apartment.

Thanks, guys.
