Exercising without a gym

[Crystal_tiong]

Nothing to worry about, it's perfectly normal.Sometimes it takes 2 days for some people

before they hit the toilet. Just drink more water.

 

icic , ok i drink more water . thanks !

[Crystal_tiong]

no need to go to gym, go running for at least 1hour on weekends can already reduce the flabs and increase stamina. I also do cycling thats why i do understand how a cyclist feels when bullied on the road by motorists.

 

i only dare to cycle at parks , never on roads lor , its too dangerous liao!

Bro. I didn't drop fat, I dropped muscle mass. Also 3 figure weight then.

It's really nothing difficult, mind over matter. after 2 weeks on serious,

you'll be on the right track. I dropped mass from circa 100kgs+ to now 85kgs.

another 9kgs to go. I still maintain my muscles,only thing is size gone down drastically.

 

Oh, you dropped muscle mass instead? I always thought you were dropping fats. Haha.

 

But I do know your diet is on the extreme side. For me hard to attain a zero carb diet as I tend to eat out for my lunch, and occasionally using butter and brie cheese to make up my fat intake.

 

 

But I really take my hat off your gym regime. Respect man!

And also cut down your salt intake. Carbs, I suggest you NOT cut off completely,

do it progressively, just lower your carbs intake, cut off sugar. Some people cannot take going

into Ketosis, which is the body not having any sugar, a temporary setback, headaches like migraine

hitting you, but they only last like 4-5 days, from mild to severe. After that, it's smooth sailing, full fat

burning mode, aka zero carbs.Start slow first.

 

Note: Salt causes water retention.

Been bodybuilding for years, getting old, and the weight and mass is sort of getting to me,

been a freak all along. and my wife keeps making comments about my size, with my sister in tow.

So decided to cut mass, burn muscle and some fat, we're not all year round ripped and defined.

 

I'm a little to very low carbs now, aka your curry chicken, I pound my own spices, so no package curry powder etc..

advice is, if you do it, do in quantity, deep freeze the rest for later use in small potions. Defrost when you need them.

I only have two meals a day, as compared to my previous 6 meals a day.

I think I'll have to add more duck into my pork and chicken diet. I'm a super picky eater, so there are lots of meat that I don't eat. Beef, mutton, fish (depending on which type), etc. Sianz...

 

Maybe I'll discuss with my mum and see what else we have for meals.

 

Anyway, I guess I'll have to eat the curry in moderation now. My mum actually suggested using only tumeric powder for the curry. Does tumeric contain lots of carbs? If only a little, then I'll start on it. At least I can have my favourite curry chicken with coconut cream (which I don't have to drink by itself).

 

Tumeric very low carbs, but still got carbs, so don't go overboard with them lol

 

Super picky eater still can get overweight, u must be like my wife, has a very very sweet tooth. The key is to substitute, not deny. Denial is only for the superbly strong-willed, which i doubt we all are, or else we won't be fat in the first place lol

 

For example, i was super addicted to beer. I substituted with liquor, which has zero carb. Though not the same, but at least i still get mabok, which was what i wanted LOL Strangely, after a few months of torment, i no longer crave beer anymore. So it shows that taste-buds can change.

 

For a start, maybe u wanna add Equal to your food/drink or drink Coke Zero. Then after a while u will lose your taste for sweet.

 

Try your best to eat a very large variety of meats, as pork and chicken are relatively poor sources of nutrients by themselves. Just remember our taste buds can change and can be trained :)

but hor , today i got prob output leh , the S*** takes long time to come out , i was inside the toilet for 20 mins leh ....

maybe i still didnt eat enough FATS n Proteins ????

 

don't worry about some strange things happening to your body in the first few weeks. A drastic change in diet is gonna cause some stress and adjustment to the body, so just hang on :)

The last time I ate pepper lunch, I ordered 5 portions. Even after that, I had another extra 8 half boiled eggs at yakun. Then I felt satisfied.

 

Expensive.

That's great bro! Most effective thing ever is to be doing something you love. It means you can keep doing it.

 

About the squat, if I add up the weight, it's 45+45+25+25+20kg including the bar. So that's 150kg. No wonder can't move for more than a week!
