First, I would like to thank everyone for the kind words. It is great to see such a supportive community as we have here.
Second I would like to answer this question:
Ok my workout routine is pretty standard.
its as simple as lifting and cardio at least 4x per week.
-when i was really cutting the big weight in the beginning, it was a very strict diet combined with regular cardio (not so much weight training in the beginning).
My advice, would be to do a solid routine of weight lifting combined with a LOT of cardio, in conjunction with of course a very healthy diet.
Here is what i usually do:
DAILY:
------------
15-20 mins of hard cardio in the morning and nothign else until my session later. (i suggest running, or stairstepper at varying intensity levels. You should be winded severey at the end of the 15 minutes)
LATER LIFT / CARDIO
-pick a muscle group (like chest and triceps)
-experiment with weights that will enable you to start with maxing out at 12 reps, then 10 for the next set, then 8 for the next set, and 6 for the last. SO, you will be inccreasing weight obviously.
-try a bunch of diferent excercises for that muscle group (look online for a good workout routine)
-then after you have exhausted your muscles, go and hit that treadmill. 20-30mins at least! And you need to be exhausting yourself!!! 30 mins of half intensity cardio is weaksauce and will not yield the type of results you want.
---------------
REPEAT for 4x per week with differnt muscle groups.
and, like I stated before, your diet HAS to be on point. no cheating during the week unless you want cheaters results.
after you get used to a routine, you also need to switch it up because your muscles will get used to that same movement.
