Title: 10 more pounds
Post by: Eyeball Chambers on May 08, 2009, 02:09:02 PM
I'm hovering at around 195 still.  I need to lose 10 more pounds to be in good shape.

Can I realistically do it by June?

Well I'm at about 15% bodyfat now at 195.  Can someone do the math for me?  I'm lazy.  ;D

I did tabata a lot recently.  I might just be imagining things, but it seemed like I was noticing drastic changes within the first week.  :o

I used an Accufitness Electronic Caliper.

I hope it's accurate.  :-X

total bodyfat numbers are irrelevant anyway, just cut down and you'll see where you end up

I'll take a comparison shot of myself later.  One thing is that my head is about 24'' around.  It must weight at least 30 pounds by itself.  ;D

have you used ECA yet?

If not, you'll shed 10 pounds of fat in a month with it, easily

LMAO wtf? where did that come from haha  ;D

Well I think I've always weighted more than a person would think I do, even in Elementary School.  I think it's due to my giant skull/brain matter.  ;D

Regarding the original question, 10lbs in 4 weeks is possible but could be borderline for optimal body composition.

I'm afraid to, I've had dizzy spells on the elliptical and treadmill when I really got my heart raising.  One time I got a funny feeling (not pain, just weird indescribable) in my chest while it was happening and I was afraid it was my heart.

Is that a valid concern?  ???

Eh, fake heart pains and go to the ER.  They'll give you the EKG, etc and you can make sure you have no unnoticed problems :)

How high did you get your BPMs?  Keep it low. You're not training for sports, you're trying to lose body fat while keeping heart healthy.

If you get bold for ECA, just roll with a half-dose.  It's what I do.  1/2 a bronkaid, and 1/2 a caffeine.  I've had decent abs even when gaining weight.

Don't bother with much of the OTC crap.  caffeine and a little jolt, but you can drink a cup of green tea with 1/2 yello caffeine before workout and get the same.  Only supps I'd use are creatine and whey of course.
