What kills you more - the diet or cardio?
« on: August 15, 2006, 07:38:50 PM »
Cardio I can deal with, but it's the diet that gets to me.
Those are the days when I miss Taco Bell and Krispy Kreme.  :'(

cardio 2 times a day for an hour on zero carb day with very little water is a little challenging.

You still have to drop fat every now and again.

The cardio gets boring at times - but it isn't hard...

The diet (if planned well) isn't too bad either.  Cravings suck though...

I agree.  I found that I feel like eating junk food mostly on days that I don't train or do cardio.  Drinking a lot of water and caffeinated drinks and eating green vegetables seems to curb that.

Also never go more than 3 hours without eating or you'll feel like hitting the buffet and quitting bodybuilding.  haha

Cardio is boring as hell.I can handle eating lean meals insted of jumping around on a treadmill.
The only good thing about going on the treadmills is that you can hit on some chicks that are on the treadmills next to you  ;) ;D

cardio is a bit boring.i only do cardio once a month..but the diet thing is just too much...no fat,less carbs and that just kills me..i can't do that.i had my own experince with dieting.i used to be 87kgs.before that i was 70kgs and i looked pretty thin.so then i started eating and eating to gain weight.i gained so much weight that it was like crazy.i went from being 70kgs to 87kgs in  just 2 months of eating.so earlier i ate to get big but after that 87kgs on a 5.7 frame was just too much..then i dieted for 5 months straight and i completely stopped having sugar in form..i reduced 15kgs though but those 5 months were like hell fro me.for 5 monthst straight i was having headaches,i was not able to workout that well,i always flet tired and weak..so fater experimenting with dieting i said that this dieting is way too much for me..now my weight is maintained at 75kgs with alot of muscles..

Diet and cardio are hard.. at the start.  Then its all pretty easy.  Eating less carbs and ok fats gives me much more stable energy levels then the spikes I get from eating tuna and rice all day.

It must be even tougher when people around you are indulging in those goodies.

Diet is way easier for me than cardio.
Diet is all about mental control even if you are in 0 carb.
But,when you are in such a low carb intake,its really hard to train in the gym especaily cardio.
Thats really kill me.
But, I am in my job and home,it(Low carb or strict diet) doesnt bother me that much.

I hate both...   low carbs mess me up too much mentally to effectively do my job or live my life, and I have no energy for cardio in that state either.

My solution?

I never let myself get fat to begin with. 

If I do have to drop a little fat, I can do it slowly without crashing my carbs and fuccking myself up.
