Would you consider this being out of shape?
 

First day getting back in shape I am 220 lbs and should be 200 lbs! So I started out doing?

50 jumping jacks 4 sets
25 toe touchers 4 sets
25 push ups 4 sets
25 sit ups 4 sets

I hit the bag for 3 sets of 1 min rounds and I am tired as balls
I think I am out of shape?

I worked out for 6 years and was a prisoner to the gym. Now its 2 years that all I do is walk..yea im 20lbs over weight..but im happy as a mofo :)

Great workout routine, BT. I gotta hit the gym more often.

I just started back too! I dropped 50 lbs in bench and my cardio is shot to hell. :(

Good luck to ya bro!

On a sidenote, I mailed you while back at your DAB email addy. Did you ever get that?

LMAO no shit huh.... I am happy just to be working out old school to be honest with ya Have not even thought of the gym yet but it's a month away :thumbsup

BT checkout & try some Hindu pushups & squats...you'd prolly dig it...google Matt Furey's Combat Conditioning...just some hardcore calesthenics will get you tight again...

:thumbsup

< just started doing it recently and my arse is one sore mofo...and tommorow is kick boxing day :)

Wake up early and workout right away. Also, don't eat late.

For starting out its still not enough

220 might be okay. You are > 6.2-6.4 ?

do 1000 sit ups a day

Damn... I don't think I can even do 1 set each of those

BT, I started working out hard about 1 1/2 months ago to lose some weight for my upcoming wedding. My trainer AKA "Girth Vader" put me on a pretty heavy duty workout schedule to lose the weight. My schedule basically consists of this

I do 35 minutes on the eliptical early in the day to get my heart rate/metabolism kicked into gear.

Then later in the evening I go for my full workout (2 bodyparts per day, 3 exercises per musclegroup) then afterwards I do another 35 minutes on the eliptical.

I do this schedule 6 days a week...I started out at around 6"0 250lbs... Now I am down in the 230's and am feeling awesome. Just need to lose another 15-20 pounds and I will be at my target weight.

Keep up the motivation bro! :)

Sounds like a good workout. Be consistant with whatever you do, and push your limits. The results will come, enjoy the journey.

DH would be down to 215 right now if he could just lay off the beer, twinkies and Ho Hos! :winkwink:
nah, but seriously he's stickin to it and doing very well, as should you. It all comes in time. but heres some free advice: its 90% diet. so u can train like a madman but if u still eat crap foods you will never see the real results. that routine doesnt seem like much, but combine that with a good regimented eating plan and the results will definately come. And gym memberships are only good if you go, so unless you have someone to push you to get there, keep the home routine bro.
Good luck!
any questions just ask!

Girth. :)

no but walking will help too

I need to lose some weight..230 and I'm 6' 2" :(

BT,

I popped a disc 2 weeks ago, I'm out the gym till I heal up. I've already gained 2lbs. :(

damn BT. i always worked out but in 2001 i got in a bad accident and broke my femur bone. then i couldn't walk for 3 months. i gained about 60 pounds and still haven't got it off but i have been looking for a near by jim so i could start working out again. :thumbsup

No shiit but I am trying..... At that size I would be dunking on Mo fo's :thumbsup

Dude, that alone with the training will take me over the top.... Thanks for
the kind word because no doubt I will take it to heart! Ft Liquordale is hard
on ones lifestyle if you know what I mean :1orglaugh

Good luck BT :)

Once I heal up, which should be end of this month, we need to hit the gym together.

Fuck all this sissy bullshit!

If you can do that everyday... no way can you be out of shape.

If you're out of condition I would take it slower in the beginning, could do more harm than good.

1000 crunches. usher style :)

im addicted to the gym now.

first day at the gym, i was a smoker that smoked 2 packs a day & i couldnt even walk 1/4 of a mile without having a fuckin heart attack.

now im a non-smoker (for over a month now), and i can RUN 3 miles in 25 mins :thumbsup

oh, and when i say "addicted", i truly am. i have a hard time sleeping at night if i dont work out cuz my muscles are all tense & shit.

He's not out of condition or out of shape.

He is showing off how in shape he is. I see him almost every week, fucker is built like a goddamn shit brickhouse.

Dude that is what I tell everyone when they ask me why I live in such a small town in the middle of nowhere. If I lived in Montreal, Vancouver, Ft Lauderdale etc... I would be 500lbs, strung out on coke and partying like a rockstar.

Living in a small town keeps me out of trouble ;)

DH

got any coke to spare? I feel like I could use some right about now. that or another 30 mins in the elipse.....

I seriously doubt I could do 5 sit ups........ exercise is about the only thing I dont do too excess

you will get used to it.

It gonna take some time cuss I am sore as balls today :thumbsup
