Focus on only your ab muscles. Fully contract them in a slow and controlled motion. What exercise specifically?
thats cool bro.maybe if I did it that way, I would have had a buffer look..lol.Originally Posted by Where Are You Harold Miner 2
Not trying to go in on you cause it worked for you but the general consensus for the best ways to shed fat is to lift heavy + light cardio if needed and a good solid command of your diet/nutrition.Originally Posted by j671
nothing much really, all I did was the tread mill..5 miles in 1hr..not too bad.first week almost died could only do 1 mile..lol..then I just gradually increased every week , or according to how bad my legs were hurting..lol..however, I did take half the dose of protein recommended for recovery because you still tear muscle when running.MUSIC got me through it.watching the dam tv while running was not taking the focus off running.I guess the music just let me forget that I was running.So , I just kept going and going.Oh yah, another thing .They say instead of doing ONLY CARDIO, you should lift too(not incredible hulk type stuff..lol)They say lifting added to cardio, may help to increase metabolism.Thus, burning more fat
Meal timing does not matter - i.e. you can eat before bed (even carbs)
Over doing the cardio can hamper your weight loss as well.
I've said it a few times on here, the best way to cut and maintain muscle mass which should be the ultimate goal in my opinion is to LIFT HEAVY, and LOCK IN YOUR NUTRITIONAL INTAKE/MACROS.
Thats my .02
that's a good thing. that means those ab workouts are working out your "core". hip flexors fall into the core category.Originally Posted by BONESCOLLECTA

Got lazy for about 2 years and blew up to 220. Past month I've been hitting the gym hard, and watching what I ate. Dropped 10 lbs already. Trying to get to at least 200 by May.

I'm sure this has been asked earlier, but can anyone recommend a good multivitamin?
Also, I'm getting back into the gym after a couple months hiatus, any way to minimize the inevitable soreness?
