Ab exercises won't trim your waist, you need to look at your diet to do that.

is beeing Atkins anything good?

that and alot of cardio training


core training doesnt hurt either.. you might as well do ab excercises.. if your serious about working out.. its very important to have a strong abdominal and lower back, and oblique area.. these are the core muslces

The best diet is running, it's shit but it works.
And after running one doesn't go and eat a 4kg steak with poptatoes and sour cream... one has a 500g steak with a potato and cream for dinner, and if you really need breakfast CEREAL is good enough, none of this english breakfast shit, unless that is all you are going to have that day.

Chocolates are good, only if that is ALL you are eating in a givin day, No fucking english breakfast, then chocolates.
Sodas are always good, unless you are diabetic
Water is good, if you bath in it.
Take a run. Do a sport that you like doing (There is a sport out there for you)

That is basically my health advice... couldn't give a shit about my bicep measurements, although I know I am physically not too shabby.

weight training is as effective if not more in losing fat

theres a reason why people on cardio machines are fat, and people lifting weights arent

also: stomach is main repository for fat in men. You have to stop the river and let the sun out to drain the resevoir. That means dont eat shitty food and expend energy

why is it that when ever you see someone riding a bike they are usually fat hehehe...i mean, you'd think it'd be the opposite like they would be more fit or something, but i swear...if you're at school and you see someone riding a bike...they are a little heavy...


and i think i know why...


the mechanical advantage they recieve from riding their bike is easier then walking...discuss hehehe

boy it's almost time for pictures

i want to bitch out...but i'll try to be strong.

if nothing else i'll send it to the people who are seious in this thread...

Have your ever riding a bike? You have to ride for like 2 hours to get the same exersize as 20 minutes running.

Fat people on bicycles are because, the time they done burning enough carbs to start burning fat, they stop cycling and eat stuff, Donno bout you guys but cycling makes me hungry, and it doesn't help reloading your carbs before your body has even had chance to burn fat.
And have you seen fat people cycle?? they go too slow to burn anything

Pasta is the worst thing to eat if your trying to loose weight, you have to run twice as far if you've had a bowl of pasta, you have to burn all the carbs to start burning fat.

This carb fat thing is basic biology, so it just seems logical, and I have tested it out on myself, and I (already being a thin bastard) lost 2 kg withing a week, I had to eat a shit load to regain it (cause I looked anorexic)

How bout people post pics then what they eat/do and the people trying to lose weight can decide what they want to look like

Your basically saying "pics or STFU"

I have no camera.... so I'll just STFU,... I'll leave this to Jane Fonda.
