Topic | Fitness topic? |
Corrik7 05/24/21 11:39:40 AM #1: | Where's the fitness topic? This is now it, I guess. So, I haven't been to the gym since the Pandemic started so January of 2020. I just rejoined, since apparently my work's gym is dragging its feet opening back up. I thought for sure I tore my bicep in literally the first set of arm curls on Saturday. I think it just cramped now though. I didn't have much soreness in my arms despite working out for the first time in so long until today, which to me is weird to have a 2 day later soreness start. Yesterday, I did an hour on the treadmill. Not comfortable with running yet. I played basketball for the first time in probably 10-12 years the other day. I was dominating like my old-self at first then just hit this wall where I felt like my chest hurt so much, and I couldn't breathe. That was like a wake up call that I am too out of shape. I quite smoking on the spot (I usually just smoke when I drink which is rare enough, but I had been chain smoking for like the past 2 months prior to this due to stress in my life). February 4th I was a ghastly 310lbs due to all the pandemic/stress in my life. I got down to 255-260 by like middle of April. However, I plateaued there. I remain generally in the same range. Calorie-wise getting protein has been hard for me since I generally don't know much about cooking. However, I have been working on that. Even with just cans of chicken chunks and tuna. I have been somewhere in the range of 1000-2200 calories in general. What exercises do you recommend and what general toning weightlifting things do you recommend? My chest is generally the weakest part of my body weight lifting-wise. I can max out some machines, but I am generally pathetic in scale on chest working exercises (such as benching). I have been doing a push up challenge 3 times a week also that is supposed to help there. My goals are 255 by May 31st 250 by June 15th 245 by July 1 242 by July 10th 235 by August 18th 230 by September 18th 225 by November 1st 220 by January 1st. 220 generally is where I begin to "look skinny". 205 is by far the lowest I would ever go because I begin to look too skinny at that point. Anyone else lifting, losing weight, exercising? Come share! --- Xbox Live User Name - Corrik PSN User Name - Corrik7 Currently playing: Control (X1) ... Copied to Clipboard! |
