The Sideshow Freaks Fitness Thread

[Darth Caedus]

Eat less. Exercise more. Wash, rinse, repeat.

That is true for the most part. 1 gram of carbohydrates contains 9 calories, while 1 gram of protein contains only 4 calories. You can eat the same amount of food, possibly even more and still have a lower calorie intake.

For cardio, the interval method works best for me. That not only shocks your body, which is what you want, it also increases my metabolism, which burns more calories. Then different days work out different muscle groups: chest+tris, back+bis, shoulder+foreams, legs, repeat....

I've been doing this for about 2 years now and it has worked pretty well.

I could never do the low carb diet, I love bread and I love pasta. I am cutting back on how much of those I eat, but I can't cut them totally out or too low either.

Switch to whole grain pastas and breads. It's better for you.

 

[The Ringer]

I go to the Y Monday through Friday and on Saturday and Sunday I swim 50 laps.

Whole grain breads are great. I am not a big fan of whole grain pastas. I just limit how much I eat now or substitute spaghetti squash.

Some are really good and some are just horrid! They are getting better.

Spaghetti squash is good, but I have a hard time finding it this time a year here.

run as fast as you can

 

[Rafaela]

I lift weights 2 days on - 1 day off - 2 days on. I works 2 body parts per workout. For cardio I run on the treadmill but I prefer to do gymnastics floor tumbling or Muay Thai since it's more fun.

3 cups cream of rice/oatmeal
3 rice cakes
700ml water

Meal 2:
170g skinless grilled chicken breast
1 cup grits
170g yams
1 cup steamed asparagus
700ml water

Meal 3:
170g water packed tuna
1 cup brown rice
1 cup sliced cucumber
700ml water

Meal 4:
170g perch fillet
1 cup barley
170g baked potato
1 cup steamed green beans
700ml water

Train

40g whey in water

Meal 5:
170g pork tenderloin
1 cup brown rice

I'm pretty much where I want to be at now, just want to stay less than 10% bodyfat and get stronger.

Your eating schedule brings back memories and some nightmares for me. I use to eat like that to when I was in my 20's and really into bodybuilding. Now that I'm older I just eat whatever I want.

IS THIS YOU?

 

[MikeBrown30]

JC: I'm solid for my height (Only 5'8" 190lbs 10% bf)

Astronaut: Yeah, I cop alot of $%!# off people from the way that I eat, they all tell me that when I get into my mid-late thirties i'm going to stop doing this and it's all going to tun into fat, no way that's ever going to happen. Ironically it's the people that are fat/overweight that give me grief about my diet. They make me feel guilty because they don't have the discipline to eat right.
