Is my routine right?

Hello All,

Wanted to pick your brains. I excercise quite often about 4 times a week my routine usually consists of:

- Saturday (1 hour Heavy Weights session including 30 mins sit up excercises)
- Monday (30 mins light Weights session including 15 mins sit up excercises)
- Tuesday (20 mins interval and 25 mins Boxing with punchbag)
- Thursday (1 hour Circuits training)

However, nomatter what I do I can't shake off my mini gut or moobs! Now as a kid I was a bit fat, but then I lost is quite quickly and got too thin an gaunt. I'm now OK, but just want to loose the excess fat withough going 'too far'. So I have a few questions:

1) Does this look like a decent routine?

2) I've read chest presses are good for loosing the 'moobs' but i've always wondered if it's better to do heaver chest presses or more chest presses? At the moment I do around 30 (sets of 10) of heavy weights, is it better to do lighter weights and more of them.

3) Anything else anyone can suggest to loose the gut? Anything anyone else reccomends excercise wise as I don't want to diet and get gaunt again?


4) Also eating wise I take it it's more protien and less carbs? So I do eat a lot of sushi after a heavy works workout - is this bad?
Thanks
 
Your moobs may be related to gynecomastia, a medical condition that effects some meals. It has to do with an estrogen imbalance, and all the chest presses in the world will not get rid of them. But that might not be your case, you might just need to keep reducing your bodyfat percentage.

The best way to reduce body fat is indeed to reduce carbs, increase protein, and increase good fats. I personally follow the warrior diet, this has helped me stay very lean, while still making gains in muscle mass and strength. It also helps with getting rid of stubborn, and estrogen related fats but helping to balance your hormone levels. Heres a link if your interested

As far as training goes, if you want to get your body fat down, then forget running. You need to perform high intensity intervals, and/or short term, maximum effort exercises. I personally have had the most success with kettlebell training, which is great for combining high intensity strength training, as well as endurance. My favorite High Intensity Interval workout is the V02 Max Snatch Protocol. I do this 2-3 times a week with a 53lb kettlebell, and the results have been great. If you are interested in kettlebells, I would recommend

Good luck, and let me know if you have any questions!
