Not losing fat

Hi All,

I have not posyed on this site for nearly a yr now but am back to training after couple of months of break.

I made a major mistake when i was much younger and lost nearly 60 lbs (from210 lbs to 180lbs in less than 5 months (NOT HEALTHY AT ALL!!!) lost the fat but also lost every muscle plus my skin was slighty saggy. This was 6 years ago.

I am now 185 lbs.


I have been training heavily since then.

Recently I decided to cut down and burn the fat using the following routine (past 3 weeks).


30 mins rowing everyday 5-6 times a week

45 mins of weights (6 sets of 15 reps) per exercise

Diet:

8am: Protein shake

10am : protein bar

12: salad with tuna

3 pm: protein shake/bar

6pm: tuna/chicken breast with salad

10pm: shake

I am also using yohimburn es and AIFM

I used to be 185 lbs then lost up to 178 before this diet and training , mainly water retention.

I jumped on the scale and I am now 187 lbs!!! AHHHH and my suits are abt to rip apart. Plus I am not losing the fat.

Could anyone help me pointing out if I am doing anything wrong (I think I do)

thanks guys
 
Make sure you are drinking plenty of water because that can help reduce water retention. You can do a rep range of 15 but you dont need to. Cutting is pretty much all diet my man. Looks like you have a lot of shakes and not enough whole foods. Well the shakes are back to back. try having a shake or a protien bar in between meals instead rather than a shake a bar and then a solid meal.

When you do cardio make sure its interval training. If you do something steady at the same pace for cardio it doesnt stimulate or have lasting effects on the metabolism like interval training would.

Incline treadmill walking slow mediumt then fast pace then maybe go back to slow then fire it up to fast or something and adjust how long u go for at each speed.

Same with biking

Jump roping is hella good

Diet:

8am: Protein shake Whey protein spike insulin, which is great post workout, but it is a SUPPLEMENT not a food. ADD some oatmeal

10am : protein bar Glorified chocolate bars, full of hydrogenated fats and sugar, eat some real food

12: salad with tuna What do you mean by salad? Pasta salad? Green leafy salad? Coleslaw? If you are just eating lettuce, not enough food, add something like brown rice, sweet potatoes, veg3 pm: protein shake/bar

6pm: tuna/chicken breast with salad SEE ABOVE

10pm: shake See the first post, late at night is a good time to have salads with seeds, healthy oil, like flax seed, olive oil, some REAL food, maybe with scrambled eggs, take out a few of the yolks I am also using yohimburn es and AIFM

Mate, I think you have a starvation diet going on there.

I would also measure your bodyfat, cause the scales are not a good way to track your progress if you are weight training.

I would do a lot more reading about diet. When your body thinks it is starving, it holds onto fat for dear life, cannabalises muscle tissue.

thanks guys,

I drink 2 litres of water a day and have increased my diet,including solid healthy food as brown rice with tuna, chicken breast with white egg.

You are right since i increased my food, i noticed im losing fat and can see some difference. However I am still getting bigger????!!!! and that means muscly, my arms and biceps are much more cut and look firmer... ummm stomach area well lets say that is going to be another 3 yrs of work on it ;-)

I have also incorporated different intense level while rowing, ie, 5 mins at 31 rpm and 2 mins at 34 rpm and on and forth and it does make a bit different.

My concerns is i am training cardioa s well as weights plus low level of carb with good protein level. now how the hell does my suit ripes on the back>???!!! am I lifting too heavy? should i cut of the weights and increase reps?

I am going to do some blood test this friday to check my Thyroid levels.
