Dont do anything h_k said. Its all wrong. You need to eat 3 filling meals a day. Not small meals alot. Protien and Carbs both will make you gain considerable weight, unless your really active. In crosscountry we would eat huge spagehti meals the night before our meet to give us lots of energy. Multiply your wieght times 15? Thats the stupiest thing I've ever heard, so the bigger and fatter you are, the more calories you need to consume? Cmon...
Grav, just eat salads. Lots and lots of salads. And run, most likely being a bigger guy(I've never seen you though)you have muscle to support your wieght and whatnot, so the more wieght you lose the more defined you look. Or you could just try and convert the fat directly to muscle...
I need to start working out too, but I'm waay to skinny. 6'2'' 150-160? So I drink protien shakes and and lift wieghts, I run too cause I like it. Damn not 8-10 miles though, how could you have enough time to do that...I see some people on my way to work running at 5:30 am. If I didnt have to go to work I would definatly be sleeping.

Ok follow his out of my ass advice and ignore my research backed advise.

It is better to eat in small portions. Your talking about running in competition, not just getting in shape. Eating spaggethi before sleeping does give you energy, but it's totally unnecessary and might even be bad if your just running to get in shape. Just eating salads isnt good either. You need variety in your food.

Captained both cross country and track. And if you do it fast enough, it only takes an hour or two to do that kind of workout.

I wasn't telling him to eat spagehti I was just giving an example. He said he wanted to lose weight so I told him and its not all unhealthy.
Actually Grav I find that the bolemia/steroids route works pretty well too. Look into that.

Bulemia/steroids? Are you just mocking me now?

I wanted to lose some weight, not burn my esophagus and shrink my balls.

Yeah and try some genedoping while your at, it it's the newest thing on the market. ;)

OMG THIS A VITEO GAIM FOOREM?

Yeah... I don't work out. I have a job in contstruction, and I am active with things like playing football/baseball/basketball for funxor and the once or twice a week concert is the best workout ever. If you go to concerts the right way.

I am in good shape. I pwn noobs.

Well, I've had no problem with weight, I weigh about 170lbs, and I use machine weights all the time, I bench at least double my body weight and last time I did leg squat I did 500lbs. I am very cut in the abs and arms and I just do sit-ups and push-ups every other day, if that. I am not consumed with this like some of you guys are, I eat whatever I want and don't worry about anything. Don't let a diet change your life. Let your life be your life.

So you bench 340?.... That's nuts.

Oh yea dude, haven't you noticed all the badasses on zelaron?

I'm the biggest badass here. 6'2 240. I bench schoolbusses.

Haha, yeah right. That's complete bullshit on badboy's part. It's damn near impossible to weigh 170 and bench 340.

Oh yeah man... there are so many... like Ganga...

obviously u guys havent seen my pic..........




(no mantra i wont send nekkid pic)

If smoke crap all the time it is. Try working out and it won't.

I think the key to getting in shape is making every day tasks more difficult.

Like when you are beating off................................. get really into it.

But then I start to chafe and bleed and things get really messy.

Yeah.

Sometimes I dont cut my fingernails and I slice my penis. THen I get to take it out of the skin, play with my balls OUTSIDE THE SACK, and have lots of other fun!.

I ran an 800 today for junior-track. It sucked. I burned out after the first lap becuase I was running too hard, im overweight considering im in 7th grade but for the first lap I was keeping up with all the soccer players and 80 lb kids atleast. I think I ran it in like 4 mins which isnt that bad for me.

Not too shabby. What were your splits?
