Well what i'm saying is take it slow like a little shuffle and gradually get faster over time. All you need is a little shuffle to burn fat. But if you hate running that much you should do the elliptical.

Edit: Try to really kill yourself when you do plyometrics. It will improve your running.

Couch to 5k plan:

This is a really foolproof training program. The first few workouts are cake so you can just start at whatever level you're already at. Once you get used to running 3.1 miles/5km then you just add mileage gradually every week and build up that way.

Slow pace is best. As you become able to cover longer distance, your speed gets faster on the smaller distances.

I went from being horrible at running to doing 12k at the 10 weeks mark (I was running faster then they planned I guess).

Which exercises do you guys find best for obliques? I need really high intensity ab workouts, specifically targeted at the sides.

I'm working on the diet so that's not an issue.

Just currious for those with developed upper bodies.

When you hit your weight, what is better, free weights, cables, or resistance training such as pullups? I'm wondering for strength training. Also should you use a weight belt or go back to cables, machinces and freeweights for best strength effect after you go above lifting your body weight?

So I finished my second month of P90X and I'm defiantly getting trimmer but I'm not seeing much results muscle wise. I'm a hell of a lot stronger but the size is lacking.

I went to the Arnold Classic last weekend down in Columbus and got a bunch of good info and a shit ton of motivation! I have lost 33 lbs so far which I think is pretty decent but my diet is teh suck, so I'm changing it. I was only eating about 75g of protein a day which is like 1/3 of what I should have been having.

This is the diet I'll be doing slightly modified from what I'm posting because I can't eat this much, at least not yet. This is a preparation diet for a body building contest.

Fat Loss/Grow Lean Muscle Tissue Diet

Meal # 1: 11 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1 cup oatmeal, 1 piece of fruit (apple or orange)

Meal # 2: 2 scoops of Ultimate Muscle Protein

Meal # 3: Tuna Patty: 2 cans tuna, 2 egg whites, 1 whole egg, and 1 cup oats all mixed into patties and fried in 1 tbsp olive oil. (I made this today and it's so fucking good, I can pretty much live off it!)

Meal # 4: 2 scoops of Ultimate Muscle Protein

Meal # 5: (preworkout meal - about 45 minutes before lifting) 2 scoops of Ultimate Muscle Protein and 1 apple or orange

Meal # 6: (post workout): 2 scoops of Muscle Provider with 1 slice angle food cake (yep, you read that right, but you have to limit it to once slice)

Meal # 7: 11 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1 cup green veggies

I'm going to be eating the same foods every day. It shouldn't be hard for me since I'm doing that now but with different shit. It'll actually make it easier for me. I'll never have to think about or plan my next meal.

These are the supplements I'll be taking:

Ultimate Muscle Protein
Muscle Provider
Lean Out
7-Keto Musclean
Ultra 40

I'm in phase 3 of the program so I can really kick some tail. Since I'm doing doubles I got cardio every day but Wednesday. Tuesday and Thursday is double cardio, Monday, Wednesday and Friday are lift days. It says to rest on Sunday, FUCK THAT JAZZ! I'll be doing more cardio. That's for four weeks.

So we'll see how this goes. If all works out how it should and I get a good muscle base I'm going to kick it into high gear with weight training and a bit less cardio.

This sounds insane; do you have a version that doesn't have 11 eggs as meal #1?
and what do you do with the egg yolks?

No, but that's what I was say about modifying it. I'll only be eating about half that. You would throw the egg yolks away or let a fatty eat them or give them to your dog if you have one.

I buy all whites and just a couple dozen eggs. Easier than boiling them, peeling them and fucking around to get the yolk out.
