    Default ~CutMeMicks Log~

    Well I gues I'll give it a go see what I can change or add to the training I do.


    I know for a fact I need to learn more training techniques and I also need to work out more consistantly.

    I tend to loose my routine/schedule due to the fact that I HAVE to assit my grandman whenever she calls sooo sometimes I'll be getting ready to do my thang and she'll call me that she needs to go to the store so I jump in my car to take her.

    Anyway... The issue I have is that according to this table I looked it by entering my age, height, sex and all that it told me I'm supposed to weigh from 166 lbs. to 174 lbs. BUT I've weighed 167 lbs. and I look dead I mean my face looks lean and you can see my bone structure my grandma thought I was sick at one point when I weighed that then little by little I started putting on weight and when I got to around 170 people started telling me I look good, so since then I've tried to keep my weight there but it's hard to keep it steady. So I find myself eating more food to keep my weight up. But being that I'm not constantly/routinely working out I'm starting to gain weight in the wrong places as opposed to before when I did have a good work out routine.


    Here we go.

    For the more experienced people here can you guys see anything that I'm doing wrong or not enough of or too much of?

    Thanks in advanced for the input.

    If I may sugest something. I'm no expert, but I think you should be eat more often. You have the same kinda job I do and I think you have a desk. Keep some peanuts and cashews in there it's better to graze all day than to eat the 3 big meals we are all used to. It will help you process everything you eat too.

    Also I don't know if you are getting enough protein. Try staying await from white rice instead dig some wild rice. Also try to keep all your carbs as whole grain your body will process it better and it will help you burn it longer.

    As far as your workout goes, you aren't really doing anything for your back or your quads.
    I would try to throw in some pull-ups or rows and some kind of squat maybe some deadlifts
    as well......

    Once again I am definately not an expert, but these things should help optimize what you are doing.

    Are you working out for boxing or to be in shape? I didn't see mention of how long you've boxed or anything and it doesn't sound like you're working in a gym with a coach.

    How are you working the bag? You said something about jabbing and reseting but I'm not sure what you mean by resetting and if you're going straight through your 25 or however many minutes doing the same thing with no breaks. If you're looking to get into boxing I'd recommend going to a round system on the bag (and for other things like skipping,etc) where you do 2-3 minutes hard activity and 30 seconds to 1 minute resting. If you know how to properly throw the punches you can vary working on combinations, speed, power. If not maybe stick with jabs and crosses and you may want to get some instruction before doing too much so you don't end up developing bad habits.

    CC#879 Sheep and thanks for your input.
    You and I are the same I'm just getting into this whole eating right and the right amounts of things myself so at times I have to stop and do some reaserch before I start anything....

    About the works also thanks again and will def. look into it as I just finished printing out some excersises from the trainer board in the sticky threads.

    I'm just doing it to get in shape (not of a ball) and stay in shape.
    I work out in my backyard where I have this set up.

    I switch it up on, ex: Sometimes I'll do 75 jabs with one hand then 75 with the other then move around the bag reset/start over and the same sequence from there. Then I'll rest for a couple of minutes then Over again.
    I also just started looking for videos/instructionals of combos I can practice and put to use.

    Thanks a lot for taking the time and for your input CC# 6

    So I started working out and just to show you guys how much weight I gained from the 1st post I made in this thread up until 2 weeks ago.
    I was weighing 200 lbs... I could not believe that. I sware I checked the scale to make sure it was right and I almost passed out.

    It's crazy how I didn't pay much attention and I didn't think I was gaining that much weight...


    Well now since I got my everlast gym here's my daily routine.

    Breakfast - Banana & Strawberry shake with proteins.
    Stretch out and run for 2 miles.
    (leave to work)

    For lunch I alternate with Tuna, Chicken & Steak for the most part served with Wild rice (thanks greg) vegetables and fruit.
    (go home)

    Stretch out and work out for 1 hr. to 2 hrs. as time permits.
    I run another 2 miles
    Skip rope for 15 min.
    Push ups x20 (2 sets)
    Sit ups x20 (2 sets) I also do the one handed side ones x20
    Heavybag workout non-stop for 10 min.
    Double end bag workout non-stop for 10 min.
    (I try to do these 2 back to back without resting but have only done it once)

    When I have time I also lift weights nothing to heavy mostly light lifting.
    I first want to concentrate on the weight loss then I'll work full effect on the muscles.
    (Unless I should work both things out at the same time, advice anyone?)

    Just looking at it now actually. If cutting weight is your goal, then I think you have the right idea focusing on the running as opposed to the weights. That is a fair bit of running to start, plus the skipping. See how you feel with it, but if you stick to that and the healthy eating the pounds will shed.

    Then you can work on building muscle on a leaner frame. I think it looks good. Might be a bit much to start? Dunno...your body will tell you.

    Thanks for the comment...

    I've had the same routine for the last 2 weeks (not exactly the same but very similar) my bodys responded well. I don't feel anything abnormal as far as tired/sore body it's been normal. I also play soccer on Sundays 90 minutes so when I get home I do my floor excersizes push ups, sit ups etc. etc. and I call it a day. I've rested in between there in the 2 weeks depending on how I've felt.

    I've already lost 12 lbs. I weigh myself in the morning when I wake up as of yesterday I weigh 188 lbs.

    I've also cut out ALL the bad foods.

    I come from a Mexican family so you gotta understand the more lard/oil in our food the better.

    As god as my witness I've gone ALL out since the arrival of the gym. I cleaned out my food cabinets & fridge. Everything I have now is either Light, Low Fat or something along thos lines.

    I no longer eat Tortillas (corn or flour)
    I haven't had not even a slice or bite of pizza.
    I haven't had anything like microwavable burritos, sawndwiches, pot pies all that garbage.
    No more soda, all I drink lot's of OJ & Apple juice & water. Lot's of White & Green teas both cold & hot.
    Lipton has this Diet teas that are really good.
    I eat fruit everyday at least 2 different kinds.
    Greens daily, whether in a salad or steamed.
    For breakfast I use egg subsitute, my fav. breakfast to make is a veggetarian omelette with spinach, onion & tomatoes.
    I also switched my corn flakes to Special K, it's the best one I found.
    Anyone else use this?
