Just an FYI Nike just started that new campaign. It's called Make Yourself.

They have seven top female athletes and they show you exercises that keep them strong. They have videos with exercises and also an app if you have an iphone. Hopefully you can use this link siince you have to put in your country.

Thanks Jordan. i use Nike Run for my training. i have the Nike + sensor in my shoe and it is fab! I am going to add this as well.

By the end I can wear a t shirt that says "Body by Nike" Just Do It lol!
 
For abs I do a range of planks with and without weights. I also use the bosu whilst doing them and whilst at the gym i've just started using the powerplates too.

Completely with those who said that need to do a complete body with it tho, especially combined with cardio

My friend swears on Insanity workout at home but yet to look at that.
 
Prone jackknife - freakin' hard and I look like a spaz doing them :p When I can do a full set without falling off, I'll be satisfied :rolleyes:
 
this for sure

after some good sprints you will be sore in muscles in bewtween muscles it's crazy.

what I have realized if you arent getting in good amount of cardio a six pack is out of the question (along with a diet). I ran alot a long time ago (army days) and had a flat stomach due to running and a minimum amount of sit ups and I was cool. just think if I did more intense work out on my abs I would have had a six pack.
 
Ha! Straight out with it.

Strange week, other than one 60 min run and half hearted plyometrics work out has consisted of lifting steady stream of food to face.

Someone kick my ass.

:::Pulls up a seat along side ya and joins the party::: I bet you have some awesome biceps tho lol, I was in the same boat as you last week. Sweet potato pie all week long.

Progress:
I have lost muscle mass all throughout my body. I gotta hustle hard to make up for the losses. Mixing my sets of 3 sets of 5 heavy reps and 3 sets of 10 medium reps to shock my muscles.
 
yes i would. but load the f up on cardio and eat right especially protien. the more dense muscle you have on your frame the more fat you burn. and don't look at the scale at all. muscle weighs more than fat, so look at the inches (lost)and bodyfat percentage instead.

I appreciate the advise fam. I have noticed my weight barely moves but my close are looser. I was getting frustrated
 
Well thought I should get back into the discussion I actually sustained a high ankle sprain a couple of weeks ago so I had to change up my routine to allow it some rest and recovery time. But out of some bad things come good. Basically I have adjusted my regiment to include more stretching and limbering up and I have also more lower body strength training because I need to get more explosive. So basically here is it:

You the same dude who lost all that weight?
 
IMHO

If i was in your shoes i would do heavy weight one week then light the next and alternate excercises for the same body part week after week.

I hardly have the same set routine, as chronicled thru this progress thread, I pretty much grown tired of working out. The rewarding factor is almost nonexistent for me now....maybe is I were paid for it than my feelings would change.
