"Most effective way to loose weight?? Cardio or weights?? " Weight loss is generally achieved by 80% diet and 20% exercise. Cardio burns calories but you have to do a lot to burn off excess weight, whereas resistance training (weights) builds muscle (while also burning calories) but muscle tissue uses/burns more energy than fatty tissue. So build muscle and burn calories while eating a balanced diet where you are in deficit of energy needed | |||

I gained weight as well as bulking up and it wasn't pretty I then reduced my calorie intake and ate a more balanced diet and ended up a very happy bunny | |||

"Not long back in gym after having tendinitis in elbow, was going well but it's starting to flair up again Mr" Tendinitis is a bitch, and flare-ups so common when not rested and treated effectively and avoiding/reducing the cause. Obviously consult a medical professional. A physio might be able to tape or strap it for you. Keep icing it in the acute phase. Eat foods high in omega 3 fatty acids like fatty fish (salmon, tuna). These are anti-inflammatory in nature. As are ginger, rosemary and Curcumin (found in the spice turmeric). All of these can also be taken as a supplement or used as an essential oil - either by inhalation (couple of drops in a diffuser or on a tissue placed under your pillow or on the dashboard of your car, for example) or added to a bath (just a few drops, not the whole bottle!!!) or add a couple of drops to a teaspoon of unscented lotion or oil and rub into the affected area - if you have no allergies. Avoid highly inflammatory foods and drinks (refined foods, alcohol...). I wish you a speedy recovery | |||

"Not saying this to anyone in particular, but you'd be surprised how much of a difference it makes to just eat properly. Once you hit your protein goal and stay under your carbs and fats, it's actually really easy. Then you just have to lift all the heavy stuff over and over again " Agreed It HAS to be a lifestyle change, no fad diets or severe calorie restrictions, it must be sustainable (and enjoyable) for it to work long term. | |||

My advice would be to join a slimming class to get that support and guidance. Trying to do something like the above is a recipe for failure for 99% of people." In fairness, fasting and intermittent fasting has been shown to have a number of health benefits, not limited to but including improving insulin sensitivity (can help with type 2 diabetes), burning fat during fasting periods due to a metabolic switch (help with weight loss), can improve heart health, immunity and brain function. There is plenty of information on the net, including studies in respected medical journals. Personally, I would also think that 3 days without food is on the extreme side though I have done it, in order to kickstart different eating habits. I doubt a medical professional would approve. My mother is a walking example of the benefits intermittent fasting has (in combination with more activity). At age 75, short and obese, type 2 diabetic, very, very limited kidney function, on blood pressure tablets, insulin, blood thinners, meds for fibromyalgia (18 different tablets a day) - she started walking regularly by acquiring a dog and intermittent fasting (eating every other day). Over the course of a year, she lost probably the better part of 2-3 stone, has drastically reduced the amount of insulin to inject and is off all meds except for one blood pressure tablet and during colder months on blood thinners (aspirin in this case). Her doctors are delighted. She was told 15 years ago, she'd be on dialysis 5 years later. At now 78, she's healthier than she's never been!!! Do consult a doctor or appropriate specialist if you're going down this road. As for slimming clubs - I did Weight watchers years ago, very successfully. I know they're not for everyone. I've heard about the Slimming World system and don't like the use around language - counting syns - I mean, WTF?! So you're trying to establish healthy eating habits and a healthy relationship with food but are made count your syns! So wrong on so many different levels! | |||

With your 2 degrees ,I hope you can read this: When it comes to diets, along with information about the calorie content of a product, you almost certainly hear the phrase “glycemic index” from time to time. This is a very important indicator for a healthy diet, characterizing changes in blood sugar levels when eating various foods. It is calculated individually, per 100 grams of the product. The reference substance is usually considered glucose (its GI is 100). How is the glycemic index determined? Roughly speaking, the rate of absorption of the product is compared with the rate of absorption of glucose by the body. Accordingly, the longer the substance is absorbed, the slower the blood sugar level rises, the lower the glycemic index of the product. Good luck with crap food and lazy lifestyle, definitely the best way to coexist. Give me your point of so call “ crap , idiotic and dangerous advice “ at the moment only your manners shows up what you know. Btw check out my profile to see how fat or dead I am on my pictures . Always respect others as you want they respect you. | |||

Save me your basic Google rehash, 3 days without food is dangerous. We are not talking about intermittent fasting here, you are talking about sustained fasting without food for 72 hours. Now go ask Dr Google about ketoacidosis. Sustained fasting is dangerous and you coming on here and advocating it to anyone without knowing anyone's medical history is beyond ignorant and irresponsible. I will leave it there because to explain acid base balance, it's effect on metabolism and the body's electrolyte profile is completely beyond you. No one advocated "crap food and a lazy lifestyle", but I am trying to keep some susceptible individuals out of Icu. I have no need to look at your profile, I know all I need to know about you. This will be my last comment on this matter are you are now at the point of trying to save face and can't back down. You take care | |||

Maybe for you it is crap , but I am disagree with you . If you a little bit educated you will know more how body and mind working. But as I say “ born to crawl cannot fly” It's not, it's total crap. You have no idea what you are talking about, it's dangerous. Do you consider me having 2 degrees related to the matter being uneducated? "crawl" back to wherever you came from. You don't even know what you don't know regarding any of this. I have not an idea, I have an experience .An educated person would have more manners, I see what type of 2 degrees education you have. With your 2 degrees ,I hope you can read this: When it comes to diets, along with information about the calorie content of a product, you almost certainly hear the phrase “glycemic index” from time to time. This is a very important indicator for a healthy diet, characterizing changes in blood sugar levels when eating various foods. It is calculated individually, per 100 grams of the product. The reference substance is usually considered glucose (its GI is 100). How is the glycemic index determined? Roughly speaking, the rate of absorption of the product is compared with the rate of absorption of glucose by the body. Accordingly, the longer the substance is absorbed, the slower the blood sugar level rises, the lower the glycemic index of the product. Good luck with crap food and lazy lifestyle, definitely the best way to coexist. Give me your point of so call “ crap , idiotic and dangerous advice “ at the moment only your manners shows up what you know. Btw check out my profile to see how fat or dead I am on my pictures . Always respect others as you want they respect you. You were the one said "born to crawl, cannot fly", arrogant and patronising, and ultimately ignorant. Save me your basic Google rehash, 3 days without food is dangerous. We are not talking about intermittent fasting here, you are talking about sustained fasting without food for 72 hours. Now go ask Dr Google about ketoacidosis. Sustained fasting is dangerous and you coming on here and advocating it to anyone without knowing anyone's medical history is beyond ignorant and irresponsible. I will leave it there because to explain acid base balance, it's effect on metabolism and the body's electrolyte profile is completely beyond you. No one advocated "crap food and a lazy lifestyle", but I am trying to keep some susceptible individuals out of Icu. I have no need to look at your profile, I know all I need to know about you. This will be my last comment on this matter are you are now at the point of trying to save face and can't back down. You take care " If it’s was a Dr Google I would not even say a word, but I had to take a risk on my own hands going to get surgery or do something to get better, so as doctors control my health while I was fasting and explained me how to do it right. I don’t need to save my face as you said, I am not ashamed of my position just maybe I didn’t explain right, as English is my second language, so you don’t know anything about me to call my position “ idiotic and crap” Take care . | |||

" Rosie and Wylder, while you both raise great points and from my own research using commonly cited papers. Strong arguments can be made for both sides. For fasting in particular, there are inherent dangers for specific persons predisposed to the likes of diabetes, low/high blood pressure, etc. Without going into the minutiae, also keep in mind that fasting causes the balance of hormones responsible for satiety and hunger to fluctuate erratically, as well as cortisol levels. The weight loss is largely temporary when you consider the massive rebound of Ghrelin as soon as you start to eat again is going to make most people binge eat. The raised level of Cortisol from fasting has caused your metabolism to slow as well as increase your Leptin resistance. Psychologically, this is not sustainable for the vast majority of people and is definitely more dangerous for those suffering from a wide variety of conditions, in comparison to gradual, habitual changes. Fasting can be great and our bodies have some really cool mechanisms that we can only tap into when we put ourselves into a survival, but these always have caveats because of genetic predispositions and general lifestyle choices. If anyone would like to discuss diet further, by all means, let's have a good aul back and forth. P.s. - Sorry for the wall of text, there's just no simple way to talk about some of this stuff | |||

"My diet is garbage Take out from your diet sugar, bread , pasta , potatoes, chips, but if you can not eat first 3 days only drink water it would help to restart your diet better.

And more importantly start to love yourself and your body , think more positive This is complete crap at a physiological level. It's actually idiotic and dangerous. I agree. Maybe the lady who advised can give a link to the professional who advised it? It sounds like the guy she is advising needs support in his efforts. Whether the advice is coming from a professional or not, the plan above is too extreme for someone like him. My advice would be to join a slimming class to get that support and guidance. Trying to do something like the above is a recipe for failure for 99% of people." Alan goldhammer | |||

"Haven't been in the gym in years. Totall waste Most people just stand there and look at the mirror " That's what most tightarses I know say. No sure what gyms you've frequented in the past if that's your experience. Anyway regardless, whatever anyone else does in a gym, (even if they do spend their time looking in the mirror) how has that any bearing on what you choose to do when you're there?? . It doesn't make any sense? Would you feel you had to join in looking in the mirror also to fit in? You could go and do your own thing, and then it wouldn't be a waste. | |||

"Workout Forum... Hell yeah, work it out people, A three day fast would do damage to any light underweight people, but the fatties could do with 5 or even 6 days fasting. Fridges and food abundance are not part of ancient humanity and neither are fatties, I'm not talking about chunky or chubby people, I'm talking about cake munchers , crisp sneakers and diet fiends. You guys just need to relax, take it easy and realize that everyone is different. Namaste mutha-fuckas" Well said ...

"Fasting in any form should always be discussed with your GP, particularly if you have underlying medical conditions. Advising people willy nilly to take such drastic action when you don't know their medical history is simply negligent, careless and irresponsible!
