help with weight loss, getting leaner?!

'only 16 years old young you are! You must wait 2 more years before one must use weight!' sorry rubbish yoda impression there! Your really young and your body is developing, don't be so hard on yourself and feel you have to lose weight! Or at least start using weights! Try playing sports and doing home exercise like push ups, tricep dips, squats, chin ups, basically use all body weight exercises it increases strength and stamina! Try to eat 6 small meals a day ( sandwiches, yogurts, fruit in between the main 3) it helps to keep your metabolism roaring and you'll never be hungry!

Eat healthy mind you, when i 6 small meals, make them healthy! and make sure you do something active that day, don't think you can lose weight by just eating 6 times a day it doesn't work like that! And try to cut down any xbox or playstation time and leave it for the evening after your workout. working out like this will help you focus more in school and studies as well as getting fit! 2 in 1!

You don't need weights, not yet, you can stunt any developmental growth in your muscles and possibly hurt yourself real bad, just leave it for a couple of years, the wait is worth it, (no pun intended!)

Enjoy yourself, your age, be active, practicing weights from 18 onwards is a good idea, and you can do it for the rest of your life! Bloody hell talking here like im 50! Only 20 years old!

Thats all i have for you advice wise, hope i helped you out!

stand up and with a dumbbell in each hand doing an "x" shape with your body(your arms and legs apart), bend down touching your left foot with your right hand come back up and do the opposite. also for your lower abs, lay down flat and make sure to keep your arms down. lift your legs up about 5-6 inches and criss cross them like scissors while still keeping your legs at 5 inches. goodluck :))

my mind

Hydroxycut Hardcore (order off ebay, cheaper)

and walk / run 30 - 60 minutes a day.

Doing this, I went from 225 to 201. I barely worked out.

Also, stop eating foods with sugars.

I love the simplistic approach to exercise, i believe all you need is your body and the floor, if you can get a chair, even better! Don't get me wrong, if you have the money and you're willing to go to the gym, do it, but home workouts are just as good.


Let me start by saying, it doesn't matter how much you do with the dumbbells, the belly fat and love handles won't go away. You need to lose the fat before you can start packing on the muscle. I would reccomend running, the best form of exercise in my opinion.

I don't know what your cardio is like, but if you can't run for very long without getting out of breathe, then start with run 1 minute walk 3.. Then run 2 minutes walk 3, then run 3/walk 2, then run 3/walk 1 ETC.. You get the drift, or you can do like run 5 minutes walk 2 minutes... Whatever feels COMFORTABLE FOR YOU. It's just so you sweat a lot and burn those calories.

Here's my suggested week plan:
MONDAY - 20 minutes of running
TUESDAY - rest
WEDNESDAY - Work out your max amount of press ups, half it and do 3-5 sets (put your legs on a chair and hands on the floor so you're supporting more of your body weight if you want to, it's not necessary though) .. Followed by 20 minutes of running
THURSDAY - rest
FRIDAY - Work out your max amount of sit ups, half it and do 3-5 sets, then lay flat on your back, and lift your legs off the floor and hold it for 60 seconds, if you can't do 60 seconds, 30 is fine. Straight after this run for 20 minutes
SATURDAY - rest
SUNDAY - Swim/cycle for 20 minutes

After a week or two, you'll notice your fitness get better, increase running time by 5 minutes once you find this. Also your strength will improve, increase the reps of press ups by 5 every week, increase sit ups by 5-10 reps and leg hold for 10 seconds or so.

EDIT: Eat a sensible diet as well, 3 decent meals a day with 1 snack is ample if you're looking to lose weight. Breakfast: Cereal/toast .. Lunch: Sandwhich .. Dinner: aim for a serving of protein (meat), a serving of carbs (pasta, potatoes etc), and vitamins (veg). Stay off fatty foods for a while and drink at least 2-3L of water a day, aim for towards the 3L mark with all the exercise you will do.
