You have a perfect excuse and that's muscle is heavier than fat. I need to get the bike out soon and get back into riding.

Geo Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I'm doing the opposite to most of you guys i have gone from15.5 stone to just under 17 in 8 weeks since ive been going on the wights and upped calories to 3500. So 19lbs in 8 weeks, thats good going. Not all of that will be muscle though. You have a perfect excuse and that's muscle is heavier than fat. I need to get the bike out soon and get back into riding. Really enjoyed it and felt better within days True, but out of that 19lbs gains most folk will be lucky to add 2/3lbs of lean tissue.

Thorin Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 YOU FAT BAS*%'s!!! I was over 15 and a half stone three months ago, I'm under 13 and a half now. Losing weight is easy, use up more calories than you're taking in! I have had some help from Geo with diet plan, low carb high protein. I have put on a bit more muscle but my main goal is to get the fat off so lots of cardio. 12 stone is apparently the "ideal weight" for my height, I want to get down to that before I'll start putting on a bit more muscle mass hopefully.

When doing weights etc, you damage the muscle your working, but eating healthy the body will repair and grow that muscle, using the nutrients you give it. As you lose more weight you will indeed look bigger as muscle looks better than fat, so say you weigh 12st, you will infact look heavier. What we might do is change about your diet soon, see if it makes any difference? PM me laters and we'll get it sorted P.s Great work on coming down 2st, thats 28lbs bud.

It was actually 31lbs in exactly 3 months Still a fair bit of flab on the belly and moobs, having a big push this month going to try and hit 12 and a half stone by the end of the month, then probably look to changing diet around I guess?

I also use pine nuts, small enough to just swallow whole, good for you, aswell as having good fats, and good cals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Started with a bit of light exercise on Wednesday night a rather poor 3 mile run that was hardly jogging pace. 27 minutes for 3 miles is almost going backwards. Never mind though the weight is still coming off. I'm down to 13 10 now so another 5lb gone on top of the stone I dropped in that crash diet week. Hopefully by the end of the month I can smash my weight down to below 13 stone but its going to start getting hard now as the exercise is going to start putting muscle on negating the weight lost in fat.

ozz Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 On the plus side looking to bench 100kg+ now Still fat....... Very nice, my target is 100kg pressing in the next few weeks, doing 95 easy enough. My weight has gone up in the last 6 months nearly a stone to 17.2, but my waist not any bigger and my body fat not changing much. I've been back weight lifting properly for those 6 months after a back injury. Need to reduce fat though so altering diet and starting tae-bo again, my knees have starting aching so I'm too heavy.

Tomorrow I'm getting my run buddy out and at least matching my sh*te Wednesday time for 3 miles. This time around other than getting a Nigerian runners physique I'm going to try and put some muscle on my frame as well. Looks like I'll have to get myself into the gym as well as just running.
