right i have just had 7 months on my arse due to a complete knee ligament reconstruction (second operation on same knee). my weight has gone up to 15 stone 9!! i should be around 14 stone. my height is 6 foot 5. due to the knee still being in recovery the only exercise i can do is cycling, swimming etc nothing that puts too much pressure on my knee. i have also bought a speed ball and some dumbells and a bench press. i hope to include pictures of my overweight body in the hope that people will help me in my quest to lose weight! i hope to put up my weight each friday night. i will be doing exercise every mon, tues, thurs and friday (cycling, weights etc) then on saturday and wedsnesday i will be doing sit ups just to relax. please post any comments. i am fully expecting the 'i need a bigger bra jokes' but i have realised that i need to do something now my knee is on the mend and fully intend to be at my ideal weight by xmas and back in the ring in the new year! can anyone tell me how i post pictures please?
Hows the training coming along? If you stop drinking fruit juice/carbonated drinks (except 100% fruit juice) you will lose about 2 kgs in one month (if you prviously drank these things) so just drinking water will help.
i have had 2 operations on my leg and didn't walk for around 4months and then after that couldn't do anythin high impact on my leg for another 4months and this is what i did alot of swimming, alot of cycling (at the gym) lots of walking and lots of rowing, to lose weight you wanna be doing long distance at a reasonable pace also weight falls off you if you stop the booze completely but sometimes having a good night out keeps you on track g'luck
you've got fat on you. you've recognised this. no denial, which is good. train like a mother ****er and come back to us in 2 months and we'll all say well done.
Intensity is a huge factor in losing weight. Intervals are by far superior to long distance. The main factor is diet.
Long distance running? Get that heart beating. Make it work. Long distance running wont do much other than improve your CV. High intensity is the way to go. But start first by looking at your diet. Cut out all bad carbs, eating late, sugars fatty foods. Put it simply eat less!!!
