impressive fat loss. I'm thinking of ways to get rid of the skin, I think it will tighten up soon!

This is me btw. I want to put on some weight because I only weigh about 75-76 kg now and I'm 187 cm. However I'm having trouble with my back so heavy weight lifting is out of the picture for now.


What's your injury?

There's always work arounds... but depending on what happened you should also do rehab work and such.


I'm not sure. I've been at this rehab guy and he gave me some exercises to use for my core-area. It's probably a combination of me working out alot (running/lifting weighs 5-6 days a week for a long time), and running alot with worn out runner's shoes.

I don't know to be honest. Got any ideas?


Where does it hurt? (google a pic and mark it)

What movements hurt?

Any other details would be helpful.

shitty tiny busy gym is shitty so i decided to start with deadlift rather than wait 20 mins to do squats. i regret this, however, coz when i came to do my squats i TOTALLY failed!!!! pretty sure i gave myself enough resting time.... im beginning to understand why people cycle/rotate now.

1. deadlift 50, 60, 65 . will be careful next session and probably wont move up

2. bench press 32.5, 45, 47.5

3. squat 40, 45, struggled to do maybe a dozen at 45

pendlay barbell rows - asked another guy for help with these and i think ive finally got the right technique..... will probably resume these at 20kg

military press machine - had a go at some military standings for the first time but went back to the machine since atm its such a perfect weight to strain against for 3x5.

leg raises (abs) - i look like a douche doing these, can do like 4 with retarded form

incline weighted situps - i do ~3 every 15 minutes i suppose, so like 18 total....

biceps curl, "try" to do 3x5 12.5kg near/at end of workout. started laughing today when i saw a guy LITERALLY swinging them like a swing to bounce them up every time. was lol (fucker was bigger than me tho)


is my method of training abs acceptable? "incline weighted situps - i do 3-4 (to failure) every 15 minutes i suppose, so like 18 total.... "

i see people using crunch tool and doing dozens and dozens of situps but im 99% sure thats "wrong".

but bare in mind i have absolutely no muscle there, so would it be better to do more repetitions (more than ~3) for some reason?


Is there a reason you're breaking up your abs sets?

Leg raises are good as well as weighted situps. Do them like you would do your other sets. Rest a couple minutes then go again. You can use higher reps for these if you want... 10-15 or so. Abs like the calves tend to respond a bit better to higher volume.

I think I can safely say I have adjusted to the new diet - I just went through a cardio and abs session and my energy levels were fine. My stomach isnt really any smaller, but it is certainly feeling firmer, so that will have to do for now

No, shaving is what causes itching because it causes your hair to go course and come out in all directions. Waxing you just have to deal with the damn spots for a week.

Just finished reading on the anabolic diet, it pretty much sounds like Atkins except you cycle carbs into your weekends. My diet is very similar although, and I don't know much about fats to tell what different effects it will have, but the fats I consume are almost entirely poly and monounsaturated rather than animal fat. While the anabolic diet tends to suggest a lot of fats from red meat.

The anabolic diet touts itself as a long term diet or a lifestyle diet. Maintaining my weight will be absolutely no issue, I am confident that I can increase my intake to 3000-3500 calories a day and stay lean. What I am chasing at the moment is the most efficient way of losing fat while maintaining my muscles, which I believe I have perfected as I am getting significantly leaner by the day, but only losing 1-2lb a month.

My problem is just being able to do it faster..

I need help.


I need to build a shitload of willpower, to even do my runs, I need to wake up at 5am, and it's kind of fucked up, since I work from 9:30 to 6:30, and get home pretty late, and I'm way to tired to run in the nights.

So what are good things to build willpower, some motivational post by someone plz? Or just good guides, or tips or anything that will make the wake up at 5am not a bitch.

Very happy with them. Super yummy and packed full of goodness - I used a modified recipe from RowdierBob that is terrific. At least as good as the ones I buy, and the work out at about $1.25AUD, compared to the 4-5AUD I would normally have to pay.

What's the recipe? I think I may have to start making some for myself as well.

All credit to RowdierBob for the recipe (ill write my mods at the end)

Ingredients.
-2 large bananas (300grams)
-1 tsp. ground cinnamon
-2 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
-3 large raw egg whites
-4 oz. nonfat milk
-200 grams of rolled oats
-1/3 c. Splenda
-1 tbsp. olive oil
-60 grams of protein powder
-peppermint essence

Directions.
1) mix ingredients in a large bowl, pour in to non-stick cake pan
2) bake at 150C for 25 minutes (test for firmness in centre at 20mins, should be somewhat moist still)
3) cut into 8 portions, but you can increase the ingredients to make larger serves (I made a double batch)

They do taste really good - better than most protein bars I have tried!

I changed the following:
-I used whole eggs; it has more fat, but also more protein (no added carb). This suits my needs fine, but just keep in mind that most of the fat (and calories) in an egg comes from the yolk.
-I used 80grams of protein powder; this gives my version slightly higher protein content. The added bulk of ingredients is countered by using the whole eggs, so they are still moist.
-I used a different sugar replacement instead of Splenda. The one I bought has added fibre, a slightly lower carb content and a slightly higher protein content. Win.
-I didnt add the peppermint essence because...I forgot it while at the supermarket...

As near as I can calculate, the bars I made work out at:
-200 calories
-13 grams of carb
-15 grams of protein

So, perhaps not quite the same concentration of protein as in the professionally made ones, but much less sugar, natural ingredients, and rather cheap (at least for me, im not sure how the ingredient costs would vary in each country).

I made a double batch (16 bars) for just on $20AUD (so $1.25AUD/bar). The equivalent retail for $4-5AUD here.

Again, all credit to RowdierBob, his recipe and ingenuity, I just hope in passing it on, that it helps everyone.

this worked for me during x-country. i just played back the image of the father pushing his son in the night and think "this is nothing compared to what he's doing".

Ive been a good boy today.
-180 grams of protein
-80 grams of carb
-1900 calories

Should I cut down on calories more to drop fat? I must confess to not truly understanding the 'cutting diet' - I think for my size/weight I am allowed 2600 calories to maintain weight (though this seems really high), so with a 700 calorie daily deficit, I should lose about 1kg of fat/week?

To anyone who can correct my ignorance, thanks

Does anyone know much about Zinc helping in the production of testosterone. And on the other side Aspirin reducing the production of estrogen, or rather inhibiting the production of prostaglandin which are used to manufacture estrogen?

I need to do some research but I don't think it will hurt experimenting with 100mg of aspirin and 50mg of Zinc a day.

Yep, zinc has alot of interesting effects on the body, especially if you are working out. Zinc helps creating semen in your balls and also testosterone. I don't know the specifics about zinc unfortunately but it's a pretty major player along with magnesium and vitamin B6 for many bodily processes.

Btw if you supplement zinc, do take magnesium and vitamin B6 as well. It will be a homemade ZMA. These work synergistic and are generally good for you.

Eshlow: It hurts if I pick something up from the ground. It hurts doing any rows and deadlifts etc, which I've stopped doing completely. It hurts when I sneeze

Glad to see they came out good Jfazz. Although I can't claim credit for the recipe (except the peppermint essence!) as I juts pulled it from Google. BTW guys if you do add peppermint, just use half a teaspoon as it's pretty potent stuff.

I'm making a high protein banana bread tonight so I'll let you all know how it goes.

Looks like sciatic problems Foucault. If it's giving you pain doing basic things like bending or sneezing, I'd see a physio asap.
