About a year ago I weighed just shy of 260lb at a height of 6'5. I started eating better and started a workout routine. By September of this past year I was down to 235lb. But I can't seem to make progress beyond that. I'm definitely noticing continued muscle growth and definition, slowly. But my fat will not disappear, also the holidays didn't help! Also I'm 28/m.
My goals are:
- Go from 18-19% BF to 10-12% BF
- Lose 15-20lbs
- Tone muscles
- Do a triathlon in September (Not a huge one)
I'm going to refocus on my diet and the portions I eat. High protein/fiber and lots of greens. I'm cutting gluten, low sodium, and sugar (although I rarely eat sugar anyway). And I also try to drink plenty of water, 80-100oz a day.
For my workout:
Monday: Strength training Legs/Core (30-35mins)
Tuesday: Swim (45mins)
Wednesday: Strength training Upper Body (30-35mins)
Thursday: Bike or Run (30 Mins)
Friday: Strength training Legs/Core (30-35mins)
Saturday: Swim (45mins)
Sunday: Rest
The following week I do 2 days of Upper Body and 1 of Leg. I keep flipping those.
I've been doing this 2 weeks. Is this a good routine to reach my goals? I feel great after 2 weeks, but since I've been struggling I'm hoping to start seeing results again.
