You know how you are mesomorph,endomorph or ectomorph. I aint skinny....but i aint fat either. Ive got wide shoulders, carry a bit of weight at the moment but not heaps and im starting to do weights to tone up. Would that make me a mesomorph? I know its not really a very scientific way of analysing your body but im just curious about the concept. ;)
ive heard 'bout body types but i dont really understand what each type is made up of. can anyone explain please ?????
Usually Minerals, Chains or Amino acids and lipids... ;) :P
It's really the rate of your metabolism, basically how quickly you use and store Calories and deliver nutrients for tissue growth and repair.
Naturally Skinny people, naturally Fat people and naturally athletic people... :)
lord knows what i am.... i was always naturally athletic....
and then when i began boxing a couple of years ago i was lookin tip top and before about three months ago i had not trained consistantly in like 8 months and due to lack of excersize bad diet because i would eat crap while i worked, and drinking i still have all the muscle but my body has somewhat a small layer of puppy fat that im findin very hard to get rid of right now!! lol
anyone got any advice on how to get my tone back? :P
peace.
Stop eating shite and train more? :P Just do what you where doing 3 months ago... no shortcuts, you've got to pay the price for getting lazy... ;) :P
lol Fock lazyness i been tip top for about the last 2n a half 3 months, im trainin as hard as ever its jus so hard to loose this puppy fat, lol it disgusts me...Quote:

i know i could do alot more stomach excercise, but i never get into routine of setting time aside each day!
peace.
You can't spot burn fat. ;) Muscle and fat tissue from the same areas are no more related than they are to the rest of the body :)
Sit ups won't make you burn the fat off your stomach (specifically ;))
What you gonna do with your self now then? :)
yeh but i figured if it was jus the hangover puppy fat maybe something like leg raises would sort me out!!Quote:

So does doing weights get rid of fat it selft or does it need cardo with it ?Quote:

basically so they didn't have to pay me as much :P
I was doing road works, block paving... flaging... tarmacing, earth works, concreting etc... if you work it properly it can keep you pretty fit...
Now for Snakey :P
Doing weights will help you burn some calories (fat ;)) but not as much as a cardiovascular work out will, because you are using a lot more muscle groups.
Muscle requires oxygen and energy to live, the more muscle you have, the more energy you burn at rest, so developing more muscle mass can help ;)
Good to hear that coz i find cardio very boring lol and for some reason im not bored with weights ;DQuote:
