babs2011: Guys what's happening to this thread o? It's been too quiet for a while and I'm beginning to feel rather lonely. Not much point in posting here if I'm the only one on the thread.
HG, Agaba, Modath, Yinx- Are we not into posting our workouts anymore? It used to be encouraging to see others post their workouts too but now feels like its a one man band.
Anyway, I will give it to the end of this week to post my workouts on here as I frankly don't see the point anymore.
As I like to have a record to see my progress and keep me accountable,I will be continuing my logs on my personal diary and other fitness forum I belong to.

agabaI23: Ok
Im having a good day. No strenuous stuff. Just a day to rest and reflect.
Happy birthday to me.
Out of the gym, straight to the pool.

HG
Thanks
And yeaa, na me sabi.

agabaI23: Do You want everyone to know I knew

agabaI23: Im sure HG is fine.

babs2011: If you're struggling with motivation, try this:

Think about how you'll feel in an hour or two if you exercise - energised, happier, more relaxed, virtuous. Then think about how you'll feel if you don't - guilty, fat, lazy, and wound up (those are my feelings, you may feel different!).

Greyfog: @Hour_Glass, weight lifters eat so much because they want to increase their body mass be it muscle mass or healthy fat. Because the stronger they are the more weight they will lift. A weight lifter who weighs in at 70kg has little chance of any serious heavy lifting so he or she has to bulk up and they achieve that by eating more than their daily calorie requirements. As for abokis I have never seen them eat, yes some of them are ripped but we are talking about inhumane working conditions in order to make a living, you don't know how many of them that break down because of that. I don't think d person we are addressing will be undergoing exercises comparable to what the abokis are doing. Most importantly she wants to lose weight not gain or maintain her weight. If abokis don't eat so much as u say they will have serious health issues because of the amount of energy they expend during work of which the person in question will never go through.
Exercise will never burn as much calorie as you consume. If u want to lose weight eat less calories than you daily requirement. If u want to gain weight or bulk up eat more than you require, it's that simple. My 2naira

agabaI23: Why did you decide to become a transsexual?
You were a man in during your first missionary journey in the thread

babs2011: Tuesday 1st Oct

Tae bo Advanced - 56 mins

Happy new month house!

@ HG- yeah never heard of using minutes for reps, I suppose you would have to do a certain number of reps in a given time abi?

babs2011: Good day house, I'm back

HG, Agaba, Modath, Yinks and everyone new and old, I'm glad to see the thread still plugging on. Well done guys!

Monday 30th Sept

Tae bo 'Everybody Get Ripped' - 48 mins

Romeo4real: The meal plan above is unsustainable, and i assure you it cannot be made permanent. It certainly would not benefit you in the long term.You need to eat at least 3 main meals a day. Starving yourself or not eating enough would only lead to regular "cheating" and binge episodes, thereby undermining all your efforts.
I suggest you create a food diary. Write down EVERYTHING you eat for 1week; including the exact times. This has to be quite detailed and MUST include anything that goes in your mouth - no matter how small or insignificant you think it is. Also record any exercises you do, and the duration. All this would give you a better idea of your calorific consumption and the consistency of your exercising. Do come back to the thread with the info.

I assure you, the scales will move; but you must have a clear structure to your program, and be consistent in your efforts. Trying to lose weight in a haphazard manner simply prolongs the whole endeavour.

agabaI23: honiepipe

hochanya: pls I need help....I cnt just seem 2 drop from 70kg instead I will add like 1 or 1kg nd den drop back 2 70kg....pls what could be wrong its frustrating nd making me lose hope.

agabaI23: Why do you think I lied? Even though I didn't go to church yesterday, I don't lie

agabaI23: My training partner.

modath: @Everyone,
Howdy... Quick observation;from my few weeks of staying put at a construction site from dusk till dawn. All the labourers involved in heavy lifting all have crazy abs. I'm talking totally RIPPED. Six packs on show.
They eat like crazy as well.

modath: @General house,
How everybody?

@HG,
I forgot to update about my weigh in,I got 82.2/1kg,(-.8kg)that is about 2lbs loss in 10days and like 1/2" in measurement. I feel good.
A neighbour has insanity(a leisurely waka exerciser ),she only looked at it and decided its too "stressful",she's willing to "lend" me....oh la la la,she's my new best friend. .

agabaI23: Happy new month You losers
You shall lose all the weight you gained
You shall enjoy ur food and yet lose weight
Even on the project site You shall lose weight.
In your offices i shall lose weight
You shall lose weight until u are happy with person staring at You in the mirror.

agabaI23: Honey, I wasn't expecting money. I wanted her to return 30 press ups.

Ogbono is Not pumpkin. It is bush mango called apon like u said in yoruba.

agabaI23: Ogbono soup. O ya Youve to pay for that spelling.

modath: All in all,I'm BACK!! Fully.

Romeo4real: @Ms Steph -



Try and understand that whilst weight gain is about calories in vs calories out, it really is not that simple.

1. A calorie is simply a unit of measurement. It is not anything physical
2. The human body does not "burn" calories for energy
3. Whilst a calorie of fat is equal to a calorie of carb or protein thermodynamically, in that they strictly produce the same amount of heat when burned, they are NOT equal in the way your body processes them.
4. Your body processes calories from different foods differently
5. The energy cost to metabolize fat, carbs (complex & simple) and protein is different
6. Calorie restriction slows metabolism
7. Fiber reduces calorie absorption
8. Quantity and Timing of eating affects calorie processing and insulin production

So, stop calorie counting. It is misleading and will only serve to confuse you more. No machine can realistically tell you how much calories have been "burnt" for any given exercise; it is simply making an assumption. Simply eat right, responsibly, regularly, and exercise consistently.
