| Posted: 07 Apr 2020 01:54 PM PDT POST CLOSED - My speed at the moment is sooo slow like a 5k takes about 43 minutes. The best I've ever done was 18 months ago when a 5k = 30 mins. I've read books and checked plans online. Can someone please recommend a plan that involves increasing the speed as well as distance? My first day back running was two weeks ago and I've only run three times but am increasing this. Thank you 🙏 in advance Update: my goal is to run the half marathon in October the last time I did that it took over three hours. I want to be able to run faster. Distance running I don't mind 5 & 10k's when I get back to running properly but I'm slow doing them. Last update: thank you all for your input I am going to try some and see how I get along. I don't know how to close the post and have been advised via another thread to say post closed. Thanks once again it's been a great community. [link] [comments] |

| Fitness for someone who fell off bad Posted: 07 Apr 2020 10:24 PM PDT Long story short I'm going through a shit moment in life and want to get back to where I used to be. I am an ex football player where I was in insane shape, benching well over 300, squatting 400+, and still fast. Since than I have gained roughly 40 pounds(probably more because of muscle loss). I want to get back into shape but am unsure where to start. I have everything I need at home I think. I have a fitness air bike, squat/bench rack, curling bar, and dumbbells from 10-80lbs. Where should I start to get back to my peak shape? For reference I am 22, 240, 5'9. I have a fairly good amount of knowledge on weightlifting but things are not as easy as they were. I can still lift relatively heavy but my cardio is shit. Can anyone point me in a good direction to get back around 190 ish ? I know diet is important and I am more than willing to do what needs to be done in the kitchen as well as the weight room. Thank you in advance! TLDR: got fat from being lazy, want to lose about 40 pounds [link] [comments] |
| Should I do keto or just stick to eating healthy? Posted: 08 Apr 2020 04:55 AM PDT Hey! Im 18yo, 181cm, 77kg and trying to lose some fat. I hate couting calories so I've decided myself to some sorta of diet like keto. But i dont know if i should do Keto or just stick to eating healthy(almost the same as keto but with oats,milk,rice,potatoes, legumes). What do y'all think? [link] [comments] |
| Exercises for someone with nerve disorder in Legs Posted: 08 Apr 2020 04:41 AM PDT I have a genetic disorder where I don't have use of a lot of muscles in my lower legs, mainly my calves. I'm getting into cycling, and want to safely do some leg exercises. I know squats are important, but I don't know if I can low enough to do them properly without undo strain on my knees. Any reccomendations? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 08 Apr 2020 03:29 AM PDT Can I train full body weight training everyday? I have been doing this everyday with the odd rest training to get me through this isolation. (It helps mentally) I don't normally do this as I know the benefits of leaving muscle groups to rest. Yesterday I only done legs but now I am considering full body again? Any suggestions? Used to be a cardio lover but didnt see the benefits like I do with weights, however I done have a bike and after weight training jump on it for a bit. [link] [comments] |
| Exercise bike with separate heart-rate and RPM display? Posted: 08 Apr 2020 02:56 AM PDT I'm looking to keep up some exercise until going to the gym is an option again (and add exercise on non-gym days afterward), and I'd like to get an exercise bike. The problem I'm facing is it seems most of the less expensive exercise bikes only display one type of information at once. I just want something not too expensive that shows the RPM and the heart rate at the same time on an easy to read display. I don't care if the heart-rate sensor isn't super accurate either, it just needs to be consistent. I'd prefer to get one that works the arms as well but those seem to never have heart-rate sensors. I would appreciate any relevant recommendations. [link] [comments] |
| What exactly are freeform amino acid based whey proteins? Posted: 08 Apr 2020 02:40 AM PDT They're a few protein powders on the market that are juice flavoured and described as WPIs. I tried to find info online but I can't see a thing. I went to the Fonterra website, where most are sourced, and I think I found the correct product but it kinda just says it's a filtered WPI from what I understand. However, bulk nutrients says they're vegan and diary free. It's confusing. [link] [comments] |
| What stance do you usually use when doing Face Pulls? Posted: 07 Apr 2020 10:09 PM PDT I find that even with the lightest weights - using a shoulder width front on stance or even a wider stance pulls me forward and off base when I go to do the movement. However when I lean back slightly , and do one foot forward and basing on the back foot I can complete it much easier. Is this cheating? What stance do you use? [link] [comments] |
| What would y’all consider my activity level Posted: 08 Apr 2020 01:37 AM PDT I can't tell whether to put my calories at 2100 or 2300 daily to lose weight. I went from regularly weight lifting to mainly cardio due to the recent crap going on. Age: 27 Height: 6ft Weight: 190 with muscle mass/ probably 16-19% bf range Job: Straight up sedentary desk job working from home Exercises: Usually run 2-5 times a week(2 mile intervals) If I don't run then I walk around 3-4 miles on park trails or around my complex and do about 100 pushups/sit-ups. Rest days I might walk just a mile or 2 during lunch/after lunch [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 08 Apr 2020 03:05 AM PDT For the past two weeks I've been doing full body strength workouts from YouTube using weights/stepbox ect. Yesterday I done just a leg workout for the same amount of time. Should I be mixing this up? I know alot of people train Back and Bicep and Chest and Tricep ect. I'm thinking doing full body(which I love) everyday is not giving muscle groups to rest? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 07 Apr 2020 08:32 PM PDT I am not sure if I should be counting my calories or not. I always have a large appetite so I feel like it will be very easy for me to gain too much fat. Should this be a problem I worry about? For the most part I eat very healthy. Edit: I forgot my age. I'm 15 and male [link] [comments] |
| Does cardio help you do more reps when weight training? Posted: 07 Apr 2020 08:07 PM PDT Seems logical since cardio improves lung capacity so you can do more reps before your lungs give out. But maybe I'm missing something. [link] [comments] |
| What weight of dumbbell should I start at? Posted: 07 Apr 2020 07:14 PM PDT Hey guys :D I'm 170-175 pounds depending on the day and about 6 feet tall. I wouldnt consider myself very fit but been trying to run 2/3 miles daily and doing situps to get in better shape and was wondering what weight would be good for me for dumbbells and would I get results from just dumbbell workouts?

| Jim stoppani's shortcut to shred Posted: 07 Apr 2020 10:35 PM PDT I would like to maintain weight and lose some fat. Do you think this program is a good option? .. Im a female, so Im a little bit scared there is more focus on upper body. [link] [comments] |
