nautical1 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I do the stronglift 5x5. It's a good starter program. Squats, deadlift, bench, overhead press and barbell rows. I know its just an excuse but i don't have time to life 4-5 days a week. Right now i bowl on mondays and leave after work on fridays to go snowboarding for the weekend. And once summer rolls around, usually doing housework and car stuff. But i don't really care about becoming huge, just would like to add some mass.Give All Pros beginner workout a try. It's slower progression and the general consensus is that it's more for overall balanced gains versus a 5x5 program which is for strength. Plus it's only 3 days a week with cardio on off days.

blue03636 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 I changed my diet just over a week ago, my weight loss has stopped. Hopefully it will pick back up again once spring gets here and I can get out and run/ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real trick is keeping it off 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real trick is keeping it off You got that right. Late 90s I dropped over 120 pounds over the course of a year, and I spent the last 16 years putting 90 of it back on. My weight can fluctuate as much as 10 pounds in just 3-4 days. Also seems the older you get, the harder it is to cut as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow but steady... seems to be working. That's how it should be done. I went at myself hardcore way back when, using my own self loathing as my primary motivator. It worked, but I didn't stick, so it's slowly finding it's way back. Holiday time is my kryptonite. Always put on an easy 20-30 pounds from Nov-New Years, then I spend twice that time taking most of it back off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
