Hello i want to lose my abdomen fat and build some muscle so have recently started to workout SitUps,Leg Raise,Pushups,Plank,Squats

Plank
60 secs

Situps
i do 45-50 reps in first set and 30-40 in second.

Leg Raise
2 sets of 25 reps.

Pushups
8 sets of 15-25 pushups

Squats
3 sets of 10-12 squats (without weight)

So is there any disadvantage of doing more reps ?because i am increasing my reps every 2 week.

Swimming, BEFORE or AFTER gym workout?
And how much time of rest should be observed in between?
id do it after workout just coz it will be more refreshing and also coz i wanna dedicate most of my strength to lifting weights. u can get sweaty and hit the pool. i used to do that

Another daily motivational dose.







this guy is doing deadlifts more than me and he doesnt even have a leg.i should slap myself in the face.




whats your excuse??












this guys name is nick scott. he was a great motivation for me when i was cutting.



i found this on a site. 10 reasons why ppl quit.

1. You can't get stronger.
****ing add weight to the bar and crank the tunes. Stop being scared of the weights.

2. You can't gain muscle.
You're not training hard enough, period. You train like a shit and eat like a bird, enough said.

3. You think dumbbells can't do the job.
I have a 150 lb dumbbell in my gym. If you can snatch it, clean & press it, floor press it, row it, carry it and swing it, you ARE a strong MoFo! Dumbbells work, and if they don't work, it means you ain't workin? hard enough.

4. You keep looking for the "Secret Sauce".
Stop looking for the secret supplement. You won't find results in a bottle or a jar. Earn it, SON!

5. You have NO passion for strength and muscle.
If you don't love the iron you will NEVER gain strength and muscle as fast as the next guy who loves wrapping his hands around a heavy barbell or dumbbell.

6. You're a ****ing Quitter.
Push yourself to the limit. Train hard. Stop popping zits in the mirror and checking your hair. The set ends when you have pushed past your limits.

7. You use a cell phone while training.
Do you check text messages or take phone calls when training? You SUCK!

8. You don't Deadlift.
This exercise ain't pretty. Squat down, grip it and rip it. And NO, the leg press is not a substitute!

9. You don't Squat.
Putting BIG weights on your back is no joke. Squatting heavy AND for high reps will shock your body into new growth.

10. Your stomach always hurts.
If you eat like **** your stomach will always bother you. Stop eating like **** and do what needs to be done to improver your fitness. If not, you will always be nauseous. Get in shape and commit to yourself. And guess what, sometimes you just might throw up. Oh well.

id do it after workout just coz it will be more refreshing and also coz i wanna dedicate most of my strength to lifting weights. u can get sweaty and hit the pool. i used to do that

1) If I do start swimming, should I swim AND workout the same day (with a space of max. 30 minutes rest in between) or should I do it on subsequent days, as in one day workout the other day swimming and so on until Saturday (when I do both with a few minutes of rest in between)

2) You suggested swimming AFTER gym workout, but wouldn't his lead to the body losing the heat built up by workout too quickly and wouldn't that prove harmful for the body to lose heat so quickly or might have an adverse effect on the muscle or skin?

3) As for snack before gym, i ll have 2 bananas and those two egg white sandwiches and after workout, i ll have the protein shake/s that you will teach us on how to prepare in your thread soon (i hope).
Do you agree with that?

4) Do let me now different varieties of those protein shakes that will be perfect to boost energy and will be cheap/easy to make in your thread. I dont really like banana shakes so yeah strawberry sounds rather yummy. I'm no fan of milkshakes so let's just forget milkshakes and wait for your protein shakes recipe. :)

5) I think I ll use Nestle Nesvita fat-free powdered milk with my oatmeal in the morning and have 1 glass at night with dinner as well. Plus, some of Nesvita fat-free yougurt with dinner instead of boiling khula doodh. Does that make sense?

6) The cable fly at my gym is designed in such a way that you don't exactly pull the rope from the sides (fully in line with your shoulders as in horizontal); instead, you gotta hold it at an angle and pull the cable close to the body from the top to the middle of the body at an angle. Don't know if you understand, but its not exactly horizontal as the one depicted in that video you posted. Would you still recommend it?

7) Is there an alternative to T-Bar as well, if its not available at the gym?

8) When exactly should I start workout for back and thighs that you don't recommend to beginners? Also, when will you add them so that I know which week I should add those to my workout schedule?

9) Can you recommend a healthy combination of foods for salad in the evening that I plan to have with umm, 4 boiled egg whites at around 5.30pm? I already have a few things in mind, like lettuce, deli line smoked meat breast fillet, 1 tomato. What else should I add, or is this much enough?

10) Could you please recommend some good fish cod liver oil tablets to take early morning after breakfast and also some good multi vitamins to take at night after dinner from GNC: Vitamins, Supplements, Minerals, Herbs, Sports Nutrition, Diet & Energy and more. website. Kindly share the link to the product/s you find best and most reliable in this regard.

Oops, sorry for making this sooo annoyingly long.
Thanks anyway.

HIIT is an effective method, but it depends on what kinda body ur aiming for. if u want a low muscular,thin but healthy looking body(e.g. tennis players, the yoga practitioners etc etc) u can go for it. but it only works if u really HIIT it hard. with high intensity. coz the interval of HIIT is usually 15-20 mins. it normally includes running, cycling, jogging etc.

on the other hand, its not my kinda thing :p one cannot get big muscles without lifting big . its as simple as that.

Amazing thread guys! The motivational pictures really hit a nerve. What protein powder do you guys suggest for the whole family that's easily available and inexpensive too? IF someone can mention the price that'd be great too.

1) its upto u. depends on your stamina. if u think u can do it after workout, go for it.

2) i dont think that will be the problem in summer. swimming itself is a workout.

3) yeap.

5) as long as its fat free. its good.

6) maybe u can show a pic of it so ill understand.

7) yeap there is. u can do it using the dead squats rod. like this


8) u can start it like 2-3 weeks later. when your body is a little used to lifting weights.

9) try chicken salad also.

10) i think GNC has ANIMALS fish oil. check them out. it will be a bit difficult to suggest coz not everything works for everyone. it is possible that even the best selling supplement doesnt work for u. u gotta give it a try.

protein powders that are good are usually very costly. i bought the ON's whey protein vanilla flavor (small) for 2300. its better if u stick to natural sources of protein if ur looking for a cheap alternative.
