So we've covered most of the bases on why you're fat.
The main one being the your delusional about one of the things I mentioned in part one of this two part series.
So, what can you do about?
First and foremost you have to have a honest assessment of yourself. Look past your ego or insecurities and be brutally honest. If you lack the ability to do this, this next part probably won't help but it may, have someone you trust give their opinion. Not a yes man. Someone who will be honest with you.
Pictures weekly will help too. Front back and side. Keep them and look back a few weeks to see if you're getting better. Pretty easy.
Food -
I could write pages on this. These foods at this time, these foods with these foods but, I'll keep it relatively simple as I've mentioned this before.
Unless you're getting condiments, to use sparingly, oats, rice, peanut butter or seasons, keep to the OUTSIDE of the grocery store. Not only does this typically limit you on what you can pick from, fresh fruit, veggies, meat, it'll also keep those fat little legs rubbing against each other for extra cardio.
There is a thread on what a bodybuilder eats I'll find and post the link to.
Meals -
More are better. It's not so much about "speeding up your metabolism" as it is about keeping satiated. You eat, you do shit, you eat again. You don't have time to get hungry and snack, which isn't bad but, you're snacking on packaged shit and not boiled eggs.
But I don't have time! Common..... It takes 4 minutes to eat a meal. You have 4-5 minutes at most any given point in the day. Can't heat it up? Just eat it cold, that actually DOES help burn calories since the food must be "warm" to digest. More energy expenditure, less fat.
Shakes are not too be used as sole providers of nutrition. They are a tool. The less the better. This goes along with being hungry and keeping those fat fingers covered in cheetoh dust....
Cardio -
I touched on this a bit but, just get it done. Don't start with a ton. You wouldn't start training with 405 on bench so why people do this with cardio is beyond me.
3-4 days a week of 20-25 minutes of LISS cardio will do wonders for you. Also, starting low and getting the max from your cardio allows you a ton of room to increase it as your progress stalls because, you gotta do more OR eat less.... Pick your poison.
If you think LISS is boring, try HIIT cardio. It's VERY effective, especially in the sense of preserving lean tissue in the legs and, the time needed to do it is less. 15 intervals with a cool down and warm up will fuck you right out of your New Balance shoes pawpaw.
Learning -
Log your nutrition. Training. Cardio. This is very valuable. If you keep an HONEST log, you'll look and see where you messed up and where you were doing well, what you were doing to have those results and, what your next move should be.
Any questions.
