Fox's Studio

Hello all, Fox here! I've been doing off an on workouts for a while now, but I really want to get a steady plan in motion here. I've always been kind of stocky, with too much BF. If I remember correctly it is somewhere around 28. Not what I want at all! I am 6'3" and my current weight is 245ish, so I'd like to get down to around 215.

I am beginning a FBW 3x a week and cardio on the off days. I'm not really looking to "bulk up" just lose some fat and gain some muscle at the same time. :)

My schedule is as follows:
Sunday- FBW
Monday- Cardio
Tuesday- FBW
Wednesday- Cardio
Thursday- FBW
Friday- Cardio
Saturday- Rest

I'm going to see how this works and hope that I don't get burnt out. If you think this might be excessive let me know and any suggestions are welcome. The way my college schedule is, these are the most opportune times and will allow about 48hrs in between FBW's, since I tend to go at the same time of day. I'm trying to figure out what weight will be comfortable for me. I'll probably start with 30 just to get a feel for what I'm doing and add on when I feel comfortable. I didn't start yesterday because it didn't really come to me then. But I am starting tonight with the cardio and going from there.

Wish me luck! I'll keep you posted. I need all the support I can get to stay motivated. :hug2:

HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy SHOCKS! FOX!

Glad to see you started it. GOOD LUCK WITH IT! Wish ya the best. Made a good decision!
 
Sorry I didn't get to update this thing last week. My internet has been messed up.

So Tuesday and Thursday I began my full body workout. I did it in low moderation and lower weight than usual just to make sure I can handle it.

It went very well! I did about 2 exercises a for each muscle group with about 3 sets of 10-12 each. I felt really good afterwords.

Today, is my usual first day of the full body of the week but I'm extremely sore and am going to let myself rest. Tomorrow I do cardio and the Tuesday i'll return to my full body.

My diet is probably the biggest problem. During the week I do good, but on the weekends I do terribly! I need to do better.

Are you talking about learning the weight ranges? If so this is fine. Or was it something else?

So you did 6 sets for each muscle group, do I have this correct? Or am I missing something?

Today, is my usual first day of the full body of the week but I'm extremely sore and am going to let myself rest. Tomorrow I do cardio and the Tuesday i'll return to my full body.

Rest is good the day after a FBW routine

What are the problems with your diet and be specific.

My biggest problem with diet is just eating the wrong things. I really have no real grasp on what a good diet should be. Can someone post like some sample meal ideas for Breakfast lunch and dinner? I'm a college student, so buying expensive groceries is rough.
 
I've decided to start focusing my diet on fat loss. So I'll mostly be eating chicken, tuna, vegetables, salads fruits, beans, whole grain products, and to get my daily protein, I'll beat drinking whey protein shakes with every meal (or 3 times a day).

I'll be avoiding junk food and eating out (well at least one rational cheat day every now and then.)

This sound reasonable? I'll be eating plenty to get my calorie intake.

The "Content" of the diet looks good. What have you decided on caloric totals and have configured your MT line? Having a cheat meal "once in a while" wont kill your progress, but sometimes see if you can fit this in your caloric alottment.
 
Today, after working out and such, I took in about 1500 calories. To me, that's a LOT of food, considering the types of food I have been eating (vegetables, beans, fruits, etc. have been so low in calories! I've been full all day.

I think I'll be alright sticking to like a 1500-1700 a day calorie limit.

I'm 6'3" and roughly 245 lbs with a moderately high activity rate (walking across campus all day, taking steps, on TOP of cardio or weight training.

What do you think?
