i try to lose some weight because im not happy in my current situation. i read the opening post about cardio but it seems not the right way to lose weight. it focus mainly on nutrition. and there is the problem. i dont really know when to eat what to lose weight. i know the general rule is less carb more protein. i tried that now for some days and its really hard to find good compensators for the heavy carb amount i eat before. what im currently eating: breakfast: muesli with fruits (oat flakes+dried berrys, no sugar) Inbetween: maybe some bread...dont know, thats the hardest part^^ Lunch: something with low carb, mostly chicken with vegetables or something along the line Inbetween: salad with ewe's cheese, paprika and yogurt (i dont like oil and vinegar dressing) Dinner: no dinner, maybe some lowfat quark or vegetables not sure if sleep time or general eating time plays a role in losing weight but it definitely not shows any result till now. + i do half an hour cardio training on my homebike. i try to lose at least 3 kilos, from 63 to 60 | ||

I would be that at the calorie levels I was at, I'm two weeks from visible abs. Since that isn't my goal atm, I'm adding ANOTHER 100 calories to each day. (~3500 lifting days and ~2700 off days.) I think I also need to learn to estimate portion sizes better, I'm just going by "fist is a cup" "deck of cards is 3 oz" etc. etc. Yeah, I'm doing the fasting, but I'm lifting 5x/week so I don't know what to do about the calorie cycling. What do you think... should I do my high carb/high calorie stuff 5x a week and go low calorie 2x/week or stick to the 3/4 plan? | ||

Whats your goal (Picture)? i wont post pictures of me here. the problem is that i have too much fat in the belly and breast area. i did workout for some time and it never changed anything so now i try it the other way. i gained muscles in the workout time no doubt but the fat was the same all the time | ||

Cardio is still going to help him, it's not like it's going to have a negative effect Again, it may help minorly. But not significantly. There are better things for him to be doing. If he has extra time sure. But suggestions in this thread are going to be the most bang for the buck. Hence, why cardio is not recommended for anything except for long distance endurance goals. | ||

How tall are you? 63kg is pretty light. Unless you're shorter than 160 cm you shouldn't really be trying to lose weight.... edit: nm you're 170cm. You need to put on muscle rather than lose weight. 2. You need more protein and good fats. 3. Weight lifting is more effective for weight loss than cardio. | ||

Sport reduction does not work, do some cardio cut out junk food, should be enough. http://www.stumptuous.com/ <- this should be added in the OP for women. | ||

I take my carb refeeds seriously. Decaf: I've got no idea how you stay so lean on such consistently high calorie diets. I'm still moving more slowly towards 105kg, but my squat hasn't gone up in ages--probably about nine months of not hitting a new real PR (old PR is 130kg; felt like I could pull another rep at that weight too). Today I failed at 122.5kgx1, and also failed at 97.5kg bench. I used to rep 95kgx5 on bench too  .Yeah, I have to stop getting off track with the lifting. This is honestly getting embarrassing. By lifting, duh. Genetics probably play a role too. But my "high calorie diet" recently has been consisting of 3000 calories of beer and like one or two meals T_T God damn welcome week at school. | ||
