WHAT I HAVE STARTED TO DO IS TO KEEP MY FOOD AS IS AND INCREASE THE CARDIO WHERE I DO 50M UPHILL SPRINTS 5 TO 6 TIMES, ALSO MEDLEYS. THERE IS ONE OTHER THING YOU COULD TRY AND THIS IS CONDITION TRAINING WHERE YOU WILL NEED A LIGHT SLIDGE HAMMER, A OLD LORRY TYRE AND A OLD KEG FILLED WITH WATER OR SAND. IF YOU CAN HIT THE TYRE WITH THE HAMMER (LIKE YOU WHERE PUTTING IN FENCE POSTS) DO THIS 10 TIMES THEN JUMP IN AND OUT OF THE TYRE 6 TO 10 TIMES AND THEN LIFT THE KEG AND DO 50 METERE WITH THE KEG. AND THIS WOULD BE ONE CIRCUIT YOU CAN TRY THIS AS YOURS STILL WORKING WITH WEIGHTS AND YOU'LL ALSO FIND THAT YOUR CORE STRENGTH WILL IMPROVE HELPING YOU BIG THREE LIFTS CHEERS NEIL | ||

The longest serving member without a tagline Member 41, 395 posts SQ 255, BP 165, DL 267.5687.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 09.08.2007 @ 11:27 AM i dont know what your trainign or diet is like and ye i am a bit bias towards certain training templates but give this a shotMONDAY - Max-effort Upper Body then high intensity "cardio". I would suggest weight training for 40 - 50 minutes then doing some high intensity "cardio" such as Prowler sprints, interval treadmill sprints or sprints outside with incomplete recovery, jump rope intervals, etc. TUESDAY - Low intensity cardio - walking, riding a bike, etc. You can do some high rep abs on this day as well. WEDNESDAY - Max-effort Lower Body strength THURSDAY - Same as Tuesday FRIDAY - Repetition Upper Body then high intensity "cardio" (same concept as Monday) SATURDAY - Off or same workout as Tuesday & Thursday Sunday - Off get idet sorted it is key tbh i would drop much below below maintenace 150-250cals a day. and about dropping your carbs down tbh the only cabrs i would be dropping on non-workout days are your post rokout ones, keep all the others... for me that is a 120grams of carbs i wouldnt be having so it is significant. btw wha is your diet looking like, the high intesntiry cadio can very very easily be the curuit thing talked about. keep the high intesnity stuff to less than 15min.... keep on some creo, take stimulants before training such as caffiene and l-tyrosine (look at maximuscle's viper tabs). | ||

One Sexy MoFo Member 101, 2470 posts | I'm looking to lose some flab too, without losing any strength. I drink far too much alcohol during the week, so I'm just gonna cut back on all those empty calories. I'm also going to slowly start working some fasted cardio into my mornings; twice a week at first, then gradually increase it over time. I'll start playing around with carbs after a few weeks, to see how the drop in alcohol and couple of treadmill sessions are working out. No idea if any of that helps you or not! | ||

Does f*ck all for SugdenBarbell.co.uk Member 1, 7173 posts SQ 182.5, BP 110, DL 205497.5 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq Administrator | 'A stone or two of flab' is a lot of weight to lose, especially if you're going to do it all once. You won't just be able to cut flab, you'll lose some muscle as well - so you would be looking at losing best part of three stone to lose two stone of fat. The more weight you lose at once the more strength you will lose, that's why it's best not to get too fat at once if you plan on staying anything remotely lean. Losing upto 5 kilos in a go is fine, but much more than that and it starts hitting hard - in my experience anyway! | ||

One Sexy MoFo Member 101, 2470 posts | Originally posted by Icepick... haha wouldn't we all like to lose fat and get strong at the same time it's not going to happen, you'd need some special supplements to come close to pulling it off I've done it before, mate. My diet was so ridiculously bad that when I finally got it (partially) sorted I dropped some flab and my lifts went up. It was a bit like beginner's gains I suppose, because what I was eating in the first place was 100% utter s**t. I've let it slip again and I'm hoping knocking the empty calories on the head can shift a few lbs with no affect on strength. I'm not talking about losing 10kgs or anything like that! | ||
