*.* 2013 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
**From the 2012 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. |

So a very, very vague question.
But, I am going to get back into the routine of using my fitness pal to track caloric intake. It's what worked best for me when I got down 17lbs. I'm currently down 7 and Vegas is just around the corner. What's the best way to track the exercise portion? I work for a flooring company - so we are in a hot warehouse and load flooring a lot of the day. Does anyone have a suggestion to track that? Or those of you that do track it do you guys just track it when you go to the gym? Appreciate it. |

Gonna do my best. I'm not gonna go all out like I am right now, but I'm going to consume less calories and eat better.
My goal is to not get below 187 and keep it that way.

I hit a low late last year (181) and I've been creeping up into the low 190's. This would piss me off except that my measurements are improving. Moral of the story - weight isn't the most important piece of the puzzle. |

Yeah, I kind of figured.
And I know it's technically not exercise, it's kind of the easy way out. But, any sort of physical work for me is a good thing. Checked in at 292 this morning. I've been hovering around 300 for a long while. I will post updates here too, minus the pictures. |

Finished the Russian Bench program today. Did not get the lifts I was scheduled to make which is disappointing, but I am only off by a bit (one of those deals where the spotter has a couple of fingers on the bar to keep it moving on the last rep). Oh, well. Going to check my max next Monday and then move on to another program. Likely the Wendler 5.3.1.

Hey, Silock
1. How long will you be on this particular diet/exercise routine and what is the goal? 2. You should post some side-by-side before/after shots whenever you finish. It's difficult to see change in the dailies. |

I'm planning on it, but I just dropped some coin on this, so I have to wait.
