Some fitness advise please

Ive sacked the gym off cos I never went so just been for a run around the streets / park and its ten times harder than a treadmill.

Im bolloxed and I only done half hour and ten minutes of that was walking home!!!

I plan to go before work every other morning and didnt have any breakfast befire I went today.

Should I have breakfast before going? If so what is good for energy?

Any other tips?

Lose my 6 stone beer belly. I am 14 stone with the frame of a 10 stone man.

My skinny legs and back are struggling with the weight. My legs went before my chest earlier.

Defo more stretching needed.

I'm creeping up towards 14st but it all seems to settle on my f*cking chin. I can lose it easy enough I'm just lazy to stick to it. When I did it last year before my season started all I did was a 20min run a day cut out takeaways, sugar in tea and choc. Lost a stone in a month. Then I got bored....

Definitely have breakfast.
I had a football match on a saturday morning a few years ago and didn't eat anything before I went and felt like shit 10 minutes in. Muesli is a pretty good breakfast, not the nicest though...

upto you wether you want breakfast or not really. Eat something like weetabix, porridge? then a banana maybe? also try eating some nuts ( oi oi ) and/or berries aswell then you'll have your carbs,protein etc etc.

And if you cant all that in the morning after you get up. Scoff your face before you go to bed

Good shout. Sounds boring as f**k. Add something to it steawberrys etc and it's bearable.

put weight on much healthier, just look at me

Run into the abyss

Porridge for Breakfast with a banana and some berries

Don't run on a empty stomach mate. A good running tool is the Couch to 5k NHS...I use it as an Interval training tool.

Started at 17.3st and down to 13.13st today .....HIIT is the way to go.

Run first breakfast after.

Run into the abyss

Get aids Gonzo

Place your £50 in £1 bets over 50 bets on a sat afternoon, one quid at a time while running to the bookies and backhome on every bet and thats enough fitness for anybody

Eat aload of carbs like pasta the night before it stores in ur body so if u run early hours it stays in ur system, eat get before bed after 6 or 8 hours sleep go for ur run then come home for some breakfast,'you have breakfast before run u got to wait for it to digest or u will feel sluggish and wont last long

you should have run the half marathon today




Here's an artists take on what you'd look like ^

Chris ,when I go training today I try to eat 4 hours before I start. I usually have rice & chicken or something light. But in the morning I would eat some banana which is full of energy. Take it easy first and gradually go further everyday.

If running does your head you can always come with me and get your punched in

Pain is weakness leaving the body.

Forget the gym and all the other rubbish get a mtb bike

Mario there are hundreds of diets out there . Basically they have one theme . Eat good nutritious food and not too much of it. The fat you have accumalated took a long time to get there. Thats why it will take a long time to get rid of. Serve your food on a lot smaller plate, for a start and go to bed early. You eat most in the evening probably. The stomach needs to get used to less food . Smaller meals will do this . You can have a blow out now and then, but then back on the healthy eating next day . If you aint run for years and are very overweight it will be very hard and as u found out not good . Lose some weight first . Swimming or cycling is better till the weight drops . Buy yourself a resistence tube about £6 thats all you need to tone up. Oh by the way never ever quit

Just keep doing what you're doing - running is gonna be hard, no matter what preparation you do.

If you keep doing it on an empty stomach in the morning, eventually it will become easier and you will probably lose more weight that way. Also, get your nutrition balanced. Nothing wrong with drinking now and again, but drink more from the top shelf than pints. In terms of food, watch things like bread. One extra slice of bread can be the difference between losing weight and not.

For the record, I was about 23st in school and got that down to about 12, then went up a bit to a 36inch waist - however, in the last month I'm down to 33inch waist so I've lost a fair bit, even if Annis tries to make out I'm putting weight on when I rip the piss out of the AA diet plan.

You shouldnt train on a empty stomach

The way forward is a beer and bbq with Baz in the summer.

That's bollocks. The best way to burn fat is by doing cardio on an empty stomach in the morning. Tried and tested

Cheers chaps im more confused than ever

At the most basic level in order to lose weight you need to consume less calories than you expend.

Some basic tips are;

1. Early morning cardio on an empty stomach (A great time for a long slow run). Your glycogen levels will be very low so your body will turn to alternative fuel to use (fat).

2. Doing long slow cardio is OK for the morning before you eat, but not the most efficient for fat loss. High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is the most effective. Sprint and jog between lamp posts, find a hill and sprint up/walk down as many times as you can (after a warm up!), or you can do body weight circuit training (press ups, sit ups, burpees, squat thrusts, mountain climbers, spider-man crawls, etc) which will really get you motoring because you'll be working far more muscle groups than running alone.

Good luck.
