"Continue here, it is interesting to see what we all are doing and what is your fitness goal? I am going this week and I have already been there this morning and I did a full body workout. I go 3 times a week and I have started a slow bulk with 2700kcal. I do cardio everyday and my goal is to get to bulk up, here is a good tip, did you know that your body dont run on a 24hr clock when it comes to calories? It is the weekly total that is more important to reach. I use mynetdiary to track my macros, do you track macros? "No time for tracking, bad enough tracking my weekly spend so just stick to a classical approach of listening to and looking at my body. I'm cool with that. Fitness goal at moment is to get through the fatigue stage of marathon training unscathed and reach taper late Sept which is bliss. Won't lift at gym but will do more calisthenics, as opposed to weight-lifting, at the park nearby on my post-short runs. After Amsterdam marathon, it'll be chest workouts until December.  | |||

"This week shag I've done 5 pilates classes, cycled about 60 miles, spin 3 times and 1 body pump. I eat clean food most of the time but I dont track micros. I dont like to get to obsessive around food and logging everything I eat, I'm not sure that's me really. However to look leaner I may need to think about this. I know I need to lift more. I probably need to get a food plan done by someone. "Just want to say we both agree you’ve got an absolute great physique, keep up the good work it’s not easy to maintain | |||

"Continue my callisthenics training, mastered the 'human flag' this next few months im going to build up to 'human flag pushups' Human flag is a goal of mine" It takes time and dedication bud, 3 months you can do it. Mastered the front lever pull ups before hand. | |||

I am looking to get a bit leaner myself, thinking that I need a slight change in diet perhaps... today was my cardio dday for the record :P.That is right, it is very important and it is all about the diet, it depends how lean you want to get, a good starting point is to times your weight in lbs by 14, that will create a good deficit towards leaning out.
So, at 11 stone (154IBS), I should be burning about 2156 per day?Yes about that amount but dont be there for a long time, a mini cut of 5 weeks or so, what is your goal as in % to reach?
To be honest, I'm aiming for that 10-12%. Been doing pretty good so far, just need to switch up my routine a bit, especially on back day. I am losing size quite a bit though which sucks so I need to sort out my diet.That is good going and yes that is right as you lose size when dieting down, do you do a full body workout? I like doing back training with heavy deadlifting.
Not at the moment. Typically, I do the following:
Monday - Cardio
Tuesday - Legs + cardio
Weds - Shoulders and arms + cardio
Thurs - Chest + cardio
Friday - Back + cardio
I do abs in morning and sometimes in the evening during the week.
Ahhh ditch the cardio unless you want to train your heart for endurance sports
Hahaha, I've come to enjoy the benefits of stamina though. Can actually go for long runs without feeling as though my lungs are going to collapse lol.
You will have to decide which sucks less
Losing size or lungs feeling like collapsing
Honestly for your claimed goals , shag is right , lift heavier weights and do less cardio , I do cardio prob once or twice every two weeks
This is true. What are you doing for your cardio workouts?
I either go mountain biking for 6 hrs
Kite surf about 6 hrs
Mountaineering for 5-9 hrs
Sup or a combination
Ahhh that's quite intense lol. I think I do about the same just spread out (6 hours ish)That is a good routine and it is good you are doing cardio, but I also would suggest that adding more frequency such as a full body workout 3 times a week and on each session train all body parks, select 7 exercises, one exercise per body park and focus on the big 3. "Because taking into consideration the protein synthesis recovery time is very important. | |||

"I've been off since Friday with a bug. Trying to decide when to go back in.

"I'm on week 2 of a pre deployment workout plan I came up with.. based on German Volume Training. Its absolutely disgusting. Today's workout: 10 rounds of 10 x squats @ 62.5kg 20 x toe raises @ 62.5 kg 20 press ups 20 sec speed rope 4 rounds of Drop set thigh extension Drop set thigh curl 1km run/bike (alternating) 5 rounds of 24" box jumps 1 min plank Basing it on 10 x 10 of the 3 main lifts. Incrementing every time. Starting on once a week, when I deploy it will double. 3 days on, 1 of conditioning, core etc, then repeat. I have a degenerative condition in my lower back so I cant ego lift.. see if this helps.. "Seriously, reduce the volume and train 3 times weekly Much much much better to do 20 reps 3 x week than 60 once as an illustration Especially with any injury | |||

Why do you want to eat big , seriously all you will do is add fat "My diet is pretty much chicken, eggs and veg/fruit. I'm training almost every day, so it's just fuel. I eat clean. I'm at about 13-14% body fat. I work hard often in extreme conditions so my daily intake is about 3400 if I am training hard, maybe 2000 if I am off training. Before anyone says about carbs, they tend to bloat me and make me feel sluggish so I avoid as much as necessary. | |||

Your plan is where you want to be not where you start
Progession , for inquiry free improvement whilst allowing old injuries to correct
But hey go your way domms is so lush this time of year
"The old injury will never correct-its an arthritic condition in L5/S1 which is why the weight is low for squats and deadlifts. I can squat double that but it fucking wrecks me.. this is a 4 month challenge with very gradual weight increases. I tend not to get DOMS. lots of stretching and foam rolling.
