Emmyk:
I didn't believe I could add more weight or muscles as I'd weighed around 59/60kg for over 3 years.

I watched some YouTube videos and I started indoor workout 121 days ago - 150pushups. 30-40reps.

The result is quite amazing so far. I now weigh 65kg, meaning I've added 6kg in 4months, with nice biceps and all.

I added sit-ups 61days ago, 30-50reps, tho the little layer of fats in my belly do not want to remove, but I won't give up. grin grin

It was challenging the first week, my body was sour, that I couldn't do 150 pushups again after the first day, till day 9!

I have more confidence in myself now, looking at the mirror. I am also more fit and healthier.

You can achieve whatever you desire, if you put your mind to it. cool
That's the spirit man. Can you please share your nutrition plan so others can learn?

About the abs fat layer, it deals a lot with your nutrition. If you not eating right it wouldn't show right. Not only sit-ups, also do leg raises, that helps to burn the fat at the lower part of your abdomen (that's the hardest/last fat portion to burn). Crunches, bicycle crunch (this will help your side fat), and plank also helps.

How is the 'V' line at the lower abdomen coming? That shiit looks sexy to have. Keep it up.

Wow! Thanks for the insight. So you mean u eat before n after gyming?
I actually thought it's pretty much ideal eating right after hitting the gym rather than the other way round, and you mean fried egg is good for builds too??
I even heard something about drinking raw eggs straight up or mixed with someother stuffs.
I eat light with less mass before gym cos digestion from food takes longer, so the necessary protein would've been ready for the muscle use during or immediately after gym. This is essential since I don't take supplement that easily makes protein available to the body. Besides, you need energy to effectively gym. You wouldn't perform optimally and push yourself enough if you weak.

Enough Fried egg is good. You can fry two whole eat, and boil one then remove the yolk before eating. Besides you can buy egg white that doesn't have yolk. You can mix or take raw whichever way you like, protein is still protein.

Pentools:
But what's your take on protein shakes?
Protein shakes is just a supplement to natural dieting. The shake is quite easy to consume before, during and after workout. Being in a liquid form I can easily take grams of protein at a point. However, If you can consume adequate protein before gym and after you don't need shakes. I eat rice, vegs, gizzard, liver before gyming, Within an hour after gym I consume 2 fried eggs with brown bread, chicken and beef.

If you not taking natural food(protein) through diet, shakes wouldn't do anything. It mostly serve as a template to normal proteins from food. If you don't normally have appetite for much food then you can use.

Replacing multiples meal per day with protein shakes over a long period could result in nutrient deficiencies, digestive distress, nausea, bloating, headaches, fatigue etc

Lolz! 5-7 meals per dayhuh U can eat o!
Thanks for the breakdown. Was a huge fan of egg till a medic warned that is no good except for the aged or growing kids, however I thought substituting it with milk shakes, casilla n co. could help too.
Animal protein is the best protein for builders though.

Besides, White part of the egg contains only protein, you can eat as many as possible no adverse effect. Its the yolk that contains fat and 212mg cholesterol, however latest study has shown that dietary cholesterol doesn't lead to high serum cholesterol. When it comes to body builders they're no barrier to most things. eg People are advised not to eat before sleeping but body builders can.

Losing fat and building muscles is technical. A lot may be gaining fat with their unwatched diet, not necessary building lean muscle mass.

Thanks for the awareness man

Confidence is built
Done for health purposes
Done out of passion
Done for fun
Ask boredom, Ask depression, Ask Obesity, Ask Arteriosclerosis, Ask anger, Ask I can't, Ask many as mentioned ::: They'll all answer you that exercise has dealt with them.
Note: starting workout is one thing,, keeping to it is the main issue. Then, build your morale, never give up, don't say later, don't say because it pains so much at first trial, hehehe, No pain, No gain. Hey, you can get along with ppl or partner and encourage each other via the exercise.
Al binitio, I tried sit up. Sincerely, I can't do up to 5. Ppl laughed me to scorn, showing me some ladies that can do up to 20. Truthful, it was discouraging, but I kept pushing. Now, I do couch some,, can engage in situp to 150 - 160 times!. Those doing 20, 30 before can't. They were all shouting in surprises.
I do all these within few minutes to hour.
So, busy schedules isn't the problem,... The issue is planning your time, discipline, and educating/motivating yourself on the benefits in keeping fit
Thank you.

Motivation is the key. Nothing like busy schedule there's always time if you find it.

I'm fasting now but still manage to gym before breakfast(zahur) 5-6am. Then evenings I gym around 7-8pm at night some days after eating, my diet plan shifted though. I couldn't consume all carbs and proteins in just two meals a day, I'm trying though.

Do you take any muscle/body building substance??
No, Just Natural food.

I made sure I eat lots of Protein. Chicken (Breast especially, gizzard, liver), eggs, and lean beef did the trick. At least 3 eggs per day, the whitish part is total protein. In a egg you get 6g protein so I take 3. But take only 2 yolk cos of cholesterol.

Basically to gain more muscles mass I made sure I ate X2 protein of my body mass, so I weighed 87kg then so I ate 174grams of protein per day. This distributed in like 5-7 meals per day. I eat late again at night shortly before sleeping too to enable the building up overnight, even when I wake at midnight to pee I find wheat bread or chicken to chew. I Stopped eating white bread, just brown bread and oats. Rice, veges, spag, beans also helps.

Taking 174g/P through food alone seems hard, you lose appetite sometimes but you just need to force yourself. Working all-round the gym wouldn't help if nutrition is lagging.

I started working out 2 months ago even with my busy schedule. This is one of the greatest decision I ever made.

I weight 87kg before, now I'm 91kg. I can say I've gain lot of muscle mass. Nutrition more, intense workout, and rest(sleep) is the real deal. I smile when I look at myself in the mirror.

Now I'm working on my abs & reducing weight training.

how true is dis?
He can't resign, he wants Chelsea to sack him first. So he can get a payoff.

We can't afford £9m pay off due to cost cutting, the stadium project is even on hold. Best bet is Conte finishing his remaining 1yr contract.

Besides Willian new remark about accepting the manager's decisions means he's staying. He might have settled with Conte seeing it's almost a month after the Fa cup saga and not yet sacked. We can't afford a type of Costa text message this time.

We can manage Conte for a year abeg, only that we've to wail over Bakayoko again sad

He may be be talking of Donkeyoko which is why he said he must see Chelseas new signings before he signs contract. He does not want the experience of last summer repeated. Nothing is more demoralising than wanting to reach the top with your club and they keep bringing Donkeys through the door.
