*.* 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. |

As I said in the past, I would not do kettlebells of any weight (and to me there's no point in doing them if you aren't going fairly heavy) without instruction from a certified kettlebell instructor (preferably RKC or Strongfirst certified). I don't consider the trainer down at the gym who decided to work kettlebells into their regimens because they're trendy to be qualified, either. I've seen trainers at my gym instructing people to use kettlebells in ways that I would find laughable if they weren't so dangerous.

So, my cheat meal unexpectedly turned into a cheat evening last night. Paying for it with a hangover today. It's so beautiful outside, though. I can't just sit in my apartment all day. I'm going to tough it out and head to the gym. Just may skip the cardio today...lol.

Gained 3 pounds this week. Weird, but not unexpected from time to time.
I continue to work hard and eat well. We'll keep an eye on it. |

Question about the Keto diet. I'm looking at Keto menu plans, and I see things like this:
6oz steak fried in butter or grilled 1 oz whole cheese 1 oz broccoli or other low carb vegetable water Then similar type meals for lunch, etc. I get the science behind it, but in reality, isn't this diet just an "everything in moderation" diet minus the carbs? I mean, people generally eat a steak bigger than that, and more veggies than that. This seems more like a portion control diet without carbs. Is that pretty much what it is? |
