Lifting weights increases muscle mass which in turn helps speed up your metabolism so whoever told you not to lift weights is wrong. You need to eat often because your body is like a machine, if you want it to continue working you need to give it energy. When you are constantly eating (good foods) your body is working not remaining stagnant. As for pills I detest weight loss pills, do what you can naturally and it'll come off. I'm a girl too and I have friends who take whatever pills and they only work for so long. If you truly want to be healthy and remain healthy you have to change your eating and exercise habits. Don't expect quick huge results because it takes time. Also I've lost about 30lbs without taking any type of pills and have remained my current size for a while...keep in mind when I was chubby I was still exercising all the time but my eating habits were awful. |
This is very true, but there is another very important factor in determining your body's metabolism and that is mental health/stress level. Too often I see people who work out and try unsucessfully to lose weight when their diet and routine are not bad by themselves but their stress levels inhibit their metabolism from speeding up. A healthy mentality promotes a healthy body, as corny as that sounds. Well actually, it's moreso that an unhealthy mentality does not promote a healthy body, but either way stress can often be a factor that people don't pay attention to and it really, really can hurt your metabolism.

chest
Well first start off with flat and incline bench. that'll hit up you're chest. you can also do close grip bench but be sure to put on clamps at the end of your bench bar so the weights don't slide off...you can also use your ez curl bar for this exercise since it's not as wide and easier to balance.
back
take the bench bar off the bench lay it on the floor, add your weights on the side so its standing on the floor, feet shoulder width apart, stand infront bent over at almost a 90 degree angle...be sure to keep your back straight and knees semi bent. grab the bar and pull up into your chest, that should hit your back - you can also do this with your ez curl bar as well.
shoulders
military press! you can do this sitting in a chair or something that will keep your back flat up against. and well it is what it is, military press. you sit and press the weight over your head, as you bring the weight down to your chin/mouth area press up again. some press behind their head, i'm not much of a fan lowering behind my head then pressing up but it does target much better.
triceps
lay on your bench with your ez curl bar, hold the bar about your face like in bench position, keep your elbows at 90 degrees and lower the bar behind your head, extend back up, that should hit your triceps.
biceps
ez bar curls, bench bar/flat bar curls, reverse ez bar curls (hand grip on top versus on the bottom like a normal barbell curl)
abs
there's too many for you to do all done without weights and on flat surfaces. |
Thanks, I'll be saving this and probably using it. I know nothing so anything helps
