| I weight 228 Lbs. and i am trying to drop down to 195-200 and lose my gut. My daily Calorie intake is 1900-2000 depends on what day.Im currently going to my gym 5 days a week Mon - Wed - Fri i do 30 min cardio and about 25-30 min of weight training. Tue - Thur i do 45 min of cardio on a Treadmill and 15 on either an eliptical or recumbant bike....is my cardio routine good or should i add more time for maximum weight loss? |

| I think your plan is split perfect. I weighed 260 and dropped to 200 the same way. I did do abs twice per day and calves daily. Make sure your diet is balanced.To really get your abdominals to show, you must diet and include aerobic exercise in your routine. Exercise without maintaining a diet rich in protein to enhance muscle development, is like having a car without an engine; you get absolutely nowhere.Concentrate on overall fitness and maintaining a healthy heart. Nothing beats healthy eating.Eat a combination of lean protein and healthy carbohydrates every few hours throughout the day to speed up fat loss and maintain stable energy levels. For best results, eat six times a day. Weight train intensely, three times per week on alternating days with aerobic exercise three times per week. Eat yourProtein from (lean chicken, fish, egg-whites and beans) Carbs from fruits and vegetablesDrink 10 to 20 glasses water per day NO SODAStart lifting weights do not worry about bulking up concentrate on total body strength with emphasis on core strength.Routine http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/ripple10.htmHere goes some ab links pick 3 to do for 15minutes per day http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercises.php?MainMuscle=Abdominals http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercises.php?Real_New=%3C%3D+7&start= 10&Name=&MainMuscle=Abdominals&Equip=&Isolation=&order=Name http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercises.php?Real_New=%3C%3D+7&start= 20&Name=&MainMuscle=Abdominals&Equip=&Isolation=&order=Name http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercises.php?Real_New=%3C%3D+7&start= 40&Name=&MainMuscle=Abdominals&Equip=&Isolation=&order=Name |
