Congrats on what you've already done, the discipline is the biggest part of the battle, keep it up! <br /><br />Keep me updated on your progress, and keep reading! Hopefully what I share after this resounds with you too...a lot of us are just so undereducated on food and how it affects us, half the battle is just figuring that out! If you have questions, ask away!<br /><br />GO BLUE!<br /><br />DanDannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986309612430955331.post-74125572011257756262010-02-25T21:46:44.867-05:002010-02-25T21:46:44.867-05:00You just detailed my HS/college life perfectly! ...You just detailed my HS/college life perfectly! I just recently started to really become aware of the number of calories I was eating per day. I have this apprehension about going to the "gym" so the last two weeks I've just cut the crap....fast food, beer mostly and ready feel less "bloated". We're at about the same weight now, so you'll be a source of inspiration for me! <br /><br />By the way, GO BLUE!<br /><br />ChrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986309612430955331.post-18423036944733088822010-02-25T17:58:36.300-05:002010-02-25T17:58:36.300-05:00Thanks for the comment! After I finish my last ba...Thanks for the comment! After I finish my last background post, I'm going to start posting about my lifestyle changes, and I'll go into detail about the things that I've done, and explain what has shown the most results, and what hasn't...<br /><br />That being said, I'll give you the short answer now...I do both, a very simple routine of cardio and weight lifting. <br /><br />It's about half-and-half, you need 20-30 minutes of cardio each time you work out to burn fat, the longer you can go, at a medium intensity, the more fat you'll burn, but 20-30 mins. is a great place to start.<br /><br />I alternate muscle groups in the weight room, I do use machines almost exclusively at this point...my weight training is something I'll be documenting on the go, as it's something I'm learning more and more about. But what I do now is alternating days of muscle groups (chest/arms/back, legs, abs) about 150 reps total spread across five or so different machines each time (30 reps per exercise)...that puts me in about a 45-60 minute workout.<br /><br />More details to come, please ask any other questions you have, keep reading! It really encourages me to have feedback, I'm doing this specifically to help people learn what I wish I would have learned 10 years ago when I was in my early teens!Dannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986309612430955331.post-46984953971542399892010-02-25T17:48:16.194-05:002010-02-25T17:48:16.194-05:00Congrats Dan.
