[Myspace]I'm 19,I weigh 302, I wanna change that to something around 180 in the next 10 months (before june/july of next year) [/Myspace]
I can be at the gym 5 days a week for 1-4 hours.
So my gym question(s) are:
- Suggestions on time in the gym, hour, 2, 3, 4?
- I know I should mix it up however should I focus more on cardio or more on weight lifting? (I'm not looking for really big muscles just want to drop the weight, but don't wanna have the excess skin)
- Any suggested pre-work out things to do (except stretching)
- Suggested minimum miles I should run, or minimum sets of reps I should do?
- High weight low reps or low weight high reps? (to start)
I don't eat fast food much anymore, maybe 1-2 times a week, I don't touch the sweats very much if at all. I drink Sobe, water, Vitamin water, and if I get desperate the "zero calorie drinks zomg".
Nutrition Questions:
- Should I switch to just water or is sobe an ok drink? I like it because of the no carbonated water and it's tastes better imo. (it is high in calories though, 390 per bottle but it's fairly big bottle)
- I'm trying to not eat past 7/8 at night, I do have to work sometimes like a 4-10 shift and don't get a lunch break any suggestions? I work at a CVS so not too much healthy food to have for dinner.
- I like cooking, any places specifically with some recipes?
Thanks to all that respond!
