I guess there is no need to be ashamed of my weight since i am working actively to get rid of it. Just one more kg and i'm done with losing my first 10kg.

I'm not really sure how much fat i've really burned away since i gained a shitload of muscles but it's hella addictive. The fact that i see the results after each day of training just fuels my desire to push my limits as often as i can. Having these muscles... dayuuuum, feels so good even with some of them still beeing hidden below a layer of uggly, chubby mass.


Which makes me think how much i could have lost if i've also changed my foodplan. I'm still eating as much as i used to but with less fried shit and more salats

would you consider weight lifting as a successful tool for fatloss?

and yea, getting your first results in weight lifting feels awesome cause you get more aware of your body and all the muscles

I also can confirm, that cardio is probably not the best way to lose fat. Or at least not the way the most do cardio training. I recently read a study, that a high loss of fat only can be achieved through cardio (in this case running), if the trainings (e.g. once per day) are very frequent and considerably short (maybe just 20mins - 1/2 hour). On the other hand, most people go for 1h 3-4 times per week, which is of course good for your heart and your circulation, but doesn't help that much for fat loss. However the results of the study were not mechanistic, they just explained that the statistical results confirm a significantly higher fat loss if you do cardio more frequent and in shorter intervals. The mechanisms why this is the case are probably quite complicated and yet unknown, although this question is also quite interesting I guess.

I mean in the end your energy uptake should be lower than your energy intake to lose weight. That's the physics. But I guess since muscles require a whole lot of energy, you can bump up your daily energy requirements to a level, where basically the muscles just burn the fat.

70% of your fat loss is what u eat!!! eat lean get results... i can lose fat without really doing sport (just walk a lot)

the main thing is probably hormone production, if u consistently push yourself your body thinks hes on pressure all the time. weight lifting is pushing this (testosterone etc.) thats why i improved in fat loss a alot the moment i went back to compound exercises which push your body very hard in all aspects every 2nd day.

only isolation exercises wont do the job for weight loss i guess

eating >90% of the time clean because i don't have time to cheat (when i can eat i have to get dem proteins and carbs intu da body - the important ones), lost 3 kilos in 3 weeks as a result. i got nice abs nao and i'm more vascular, but it doesn't help my mindset. when you actually wanna bulk up but lose weight instead - it feels like you're shrinking no matter how hard you struggle. now i know how it must feel like to be a hardgainer
my daily calory need just went through the roof since i changed from sitting and sleeping all day to walking/working all day -.-

all measures will be taken to not drop below 90kg though, chokkoloid is ready!

edit: despite losing weight my powa still goes up, which is kinda nice

yeah you just need to get started, if you would change everything right from the beginning it would probably not be as much fun as it is now. with the recent results you get more and more motivated, the hunger for more success will make you improve everything piece by piece. you just have to find a way for you that is fun, yet effective so you don't lose the spirit to go on and lose the weight that is still too much.
most importantly not just quit and get the fat back which you lost in months of hard work.

congratz to the 10kg already

bmi doesnt consider massels, so yea, im a confirmed fatty now

I don't have the discipline to do a complete workout routine anyway. I run and do the occasional crunches/pushups because it just feels good to be in shape and have good stamina, but eating rabitfood and doing an entire exercise routine every day is not for me.

but if you run and do push ups/crunches on a regular basis its a fine and ez way to stay in shape and healthy, altho you could use some back training tho (even for better support in your everyday life) so maybe try lift some shit up the ground regulary

nice vid

and yea, getting your first results in weight lifting feels awesome cause you get more aware of your body and all the muscles

Comming back to this... I know that this might sound stupid but does anybody else likes to flex and strech his muscles just because it feels good? Even though you are the only one in the room?
I often catch myself by doing it without thinking.
Maybe it's because i'm slowly converting to the arnuld religion...
