hey im 21 years old
havnt been to the gym since last Aug. im lazy now, and i need to change that
im 5'8
180-190 lbs wide shoulders
i want to trim some fat and cut up existing muscle help
With about 30 Min's to 1 Hour...what is a lite weigh/mid intense workout I can do in my bedroom on a bike or with 2 20 lbs weights
Basically just stick to the normal cutting guidelines as listed in pages prior...
The key to overall weight loss is the following:
- Burn more calories than you take in
- eliminate sugar and simple carbs from your diet
- reduce carbs overall, and increase protein
- eliminate fast foods and frozen foods
- eat every 2-3 hours
- drink water or diet soda only
- Take fat burning supplements like BSN Atrophex, GAT Jet Fuel, or Nutrex Lipo-6
Good overall foods -
Protein - Lean meats like Chicken, turkey, tuna, fish, eggs, lean beef.
Complex Carbs - Whole Grains(all of them, like whole grain breads/pasta/brown rice, etc), Vegetables, legumes.
GOOD fats - Olive Oil, Nuts, Peanut butter, fish, OMEGA 3-6-9 supplements, avocados, etc.
You are going to want to get about 60% from protein, 25% from carbs, and 15% from good fats. READ THE LABELS OF WHAT YOU ARE EATING and keep a FOOD JOURNAL so you can add everything up.
MAKE SURE YOU ARE EATING EVERY 2-3 HOURS (SMALL MEALS)
In addition, make sure you do at least ONE HOUR of exercise each day. Cardiovascular activity like running, jogging, swimming, playing a sport, using a cardio machine at the gym, or lifting weights WITHOUT taking breaks...are all acceptable.
Considering you only have 2 20lb dumbbells...I would reccomend sticking to:
Pushups, pullups, dumbbell squats, dumbbell lunges, dumbbell curls, dumbbell hammer curls, dumbbell flies (just lay on the floor or stand up...no bench needed), dumbbell lat raises, dumbbell tricep kickbacks, standing dumbbell shoulder presses, bent over dumbbell rows (or seated).
