*.* 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

Do you gays recommend any vitamins for appetite control? Help me eat less. From what I'm reading omega 3, vitamin B, and fiber pills help control hunger and make you feel full.
I'm down 16 pounds in about two months but I know it could be more. |

What are your goals? People get too caught up on the scale and don't take into consideration body composition. You don't want to be skinny-fat just to see a lower number on the gravitational pull of your body mass. At least I wouldn't anyways.

I was 242 when I started in February. I'm at 226 now. My goal is 210. I'm doing 30 minutes of cardio 3-4 times a week and adding weight lifting. I'm trying to eat less, works sometimes.
My main goal is to lose weight/fat and get stronger. Which means I'll add a few pounds through muscle. |

I'm not even sure what you are trying to debate at this point? You don't seem to understand how different compounds work, and I could care less what people choose to do with supplementation, so whats left? |

.. unless you are new to weight training, extremely out of shape, coming off a long hiatus or on massive amounts of steroids. Then by all means, carry on! |

Should I worry more about cardio right now? To lose weight. I've read lower weights higher reps are better for losing weight. I'm doing bench, squats 6-8 reps per set now.

Losing weight is more about diet. With weights, do heavier weights at < 8 reps per set or lighter weights at > 12 reps per set. I could, of course, be completely mistaken. |

It's clearly a joke post. I would guess it's from the Duffel Blog or some other military satire site.
