Sounds great...just beware of loosing weight so fast...youll gain it back quicker if youre not aware of proper eating habits.

Sounds pretty good.

One thing though, unless you are weight lifting difference muscle groups each day, I don't reccommend you weight lift 6 days a week. Its a bit of overkill.

I personally do 4 days a week, focusing on upper and lower body on different days.

30-45 minutes just on abs? that doesn't sound plausable... If you're working your abs out correctly you shouldn't even be able to handle 30-45 minutes of it.

my workout rountine consists of 45 minutes of cardio (walking/jogging),
Raise intenity and lower the amount of time spent doing such.
30-45 minutes of ab exercises,
Complete waste of time
30 minutes or so of dumbell exercises,
Hopefully your doing high weight, compound movements. Not sissy isolations such as bicep curls.
i do this 6 days a week,
Weight training should be done on non concecutive days and keep the cardio to 5-6 days a weekis there anything else i need to be doing or not doing to reach my weight goal of 180 pounds withing a couple of months?

Stick with a 1-2pound weight loss a week.please help if u can! Thank you all John
