Don't suppose you could elaborate on the training could you?
I want strength. I was considering (when I've landed a job) joining the kelsey kerridge climbing thing, it's bouldering - so builds loads of strength without enormous muscles. I have stretch marks on my biceps from when I started doing weights at the gym, I build big muscles horribly fast
So after warming up light at 60kg for benchpress Ill start repping at 120Kg which is just below 80% of my one rep max. I do this to failure using the smith machine if training alone or ideally the olympic bar if trading with a partner. Then after 30secs-45secs i drop 10kg and rep again to failure, rinse and repeat all the way to an empty bar at 20kg.
This ends up looking pathetic, but who cares. i then rest for a few minutes and do reverse incline press, and other such exercises before swapping to my back.
this really makes my weight sessions physically exhausting and i enjoy the endorphin rush i get from them.
is that helpful?
Weight.13st 12
Target..Anything starting with 12st would be nice
Diet..Purition shake for breakfast, more cycling and swimming. Can't do many weights due to costacondritus and don't need to build muscle.
I'm pretty good during the day anyway..no fizzy drinks or choc bars etc so it might be hard to cut back massively..I need a certain carb level or I get giddy/pissy and weak which ain't too good.
Cutting out Red wine during the week should help as well...
my best tip as always is...Don't eat yellow snow
Drink more water than you currently are and cut back on salt.
You could drop 4-5 lbs.
It won't be fat, but it might make you feel good to see a smaller number when you jump on the scales.

Current Weight: 13st 12.75 lb
Target: Be able to see my ab muscles (lose the beer belly)
Planned diet: Cut out all crap - biscuits, cakes, pizzas etc.
Exercise routine: Cycling 1 to 2 hrs per day
Exercise Tips: Keep up daily momentum and persist every day whatever the weather. Remember - there is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes!
Perfectly explained.
I suspect that'd bulk me up a bit more than I'd like, but I can't say I've ever done it before.
Edit: ex army. Do you really think I'm daft enough to say you look pathetic?

Then I followed this:

I couldn't do ANY pull ups back in January, and I didn't have it with me in March when I was in Japanland. So I'd guess I've been doing Scooby's process for a total of about 3 weeks, but spread out since I got it mid-Jan. I'm now up to 10 pull ups, which actually feels like a real achievement as silly as it sounds!!
I'm a weakling and always have been, and it's only been the last two years that I even took any interest in my body. It's been both depressing and revealing. I'm getting stronger, but I just have very terrible eating and drinking habits - it's basically a coping mechanism for stress and depression. I need a better solution.
btw, i wouldn't worry too much about bulking, your body can only hold so much muscle mass genetically without enhancements such as steroids. If you did want to bulk properly though, use Very high weights, low reps (4-5) 3 sets.
Target weight: Let's get down to 18st first and take it from there
Eat less crap, drink less alcohol, wank walk more,
Good luck everyone
Target 14.5 stone.
Stuff: MyFitnessPal and Runkeeper apps.

Extremely cynical I know but will it actually assist or is it just another way of making money from the overweight and keen to loose weight at any cost brigade?
Target - 15 stone. 5 Foot 9 inch.
How - HIIT on stationary bike, 3 times weekly - interspersed with a long, pacy walk twice a week. Few small tweeks to already pretty good diet.

No drugs, no gym membership, no cheating and definitely measurements in imperial...fook metric.
It is a fatty acid found in meat and dairy.
It can potentially help aid weight loss, provided everything else is bang on as well.
Some limited studies showed it aided a moderate amount of weight loss (3-4 lbs) for people who didn't change their behaviours but those results are not conclusive.
Like a lot of supplements the benefits are overstated- diet and exercise will get you 80% of the way there, imho.

I'd like to get closer to 15 stone
The way i plan to do this is:
Upping my runs to 2 per week and distance from 5 to 10k.
Stopping eating shit in the evening
Partial fasting (no eating between 7pm and 1pm the next day)
Cutting out booze.
