Yo [MENTION=17875]DukeZ[/MENTION];

.. What are your thoughts on the liberal partys plans to limit the breeding of the so called 'inferior' goat breed - Arapawa?

I like it... 'I still have a dream, a dream deeply rooted in the Australian dream – one day this nation will rise up and live up to its creed, "We hold these truths to be self evident: that all goats are created equal."
 
Hi all, just joined the site today after seeing some random guy wearing one of your t-shirts whilst I was out grocery shopping. I've been going to the gym 2-3 times a week for a few years but about 6 weeks something clicked in my brain and now I'm going 5-6 days per week and loving it. I do need some advice, though.
I am doing 25mins cardio, and about 15mins weights. I'd love some thoughts on what I could do in a 5 day/week program to drop about 5kg (im 177cm 82kg) and build the male "vanity" muscles, ie chest, arms, legs.
All feedback appreciated!
cheers

Hi DocOrange - seeing you're in Shepparton, maybe it was the AUSBB Administrator himself you saw modelling the T-shirt!

As for advice, I'd say that you should make your goal to get stronger, and the others will come along with it. Trying to "loose weight" is a negative thing, and hard to stay motivated about.

I'm the same height as you. A couple of years ago I was 79kg, fat around the waist, and had what looked like a 4-month pregnancy.

Now I'm heaps stronger (as objectively measured by what I can lift), three belt-notches slimmer, no longer embarassed to wear a T-shirt (or nothing), and better looking (as indicated by my wife's physical response to me ...). And I weigh 86kg!

Do the "Stronglifts" 5x5 program, or something similar. Weight-lifting is by far the most time-efficient way to get fitter (that's what I think, and I expect most of the other forum participants too - you might get a different opinion on a jogging forum!).

Good luck! :)
 
What the hell are "Vanity Muscles" anyway?
Forget dat shit. Build all the muscles, even the ones you can't see.
 
Lol @ Sandin Face, I wonder who he was .....

Anyway, thanks for the advice, can't jog for shit, happy to train more muscle, thats what I prefer to damned cardio anyway. Where does a newb like me find this Stronglifts program?

Ok well here's my plan so far .....

Day 1 Legs; Dumbbell Squat, leg press, hamstring curl, knee extensions, calf raises
Day 2 Chest; Incline bench, dumbbell bench press, dumbbell flies, butterfly / pec dec, chest pullovers
Day3 rest day
Day 4 Back; chinups, dumbbell row, straight arm pulldowns, dumbbell shrug, v-bar pulldown
Day 5 Arms; preacher curl, decline EZ bar, hammer curls, triceps dips, calf raises

All are sets of 3 8-10 reps

Thoughts?
