This is so true.... working out a few times a week is easy. Its eating clean to build muscle and burn fat, that is the hard part.
I know guys that have been working out for years now, they look fat 220-250lbs. but they are strong as hell.... just all their gains (muscle) are under a layer of fat. if you dont eat clean, you cant even tell you lift.

My history:
i was a cig smoker and lazy as fuck my till i was 22, then i quit and started working out... gave 'er for years. I was rippped at 205 of pure muscle at my peak. Ended up doing a steroid cycle and got stong as fuck, but a shitty PCT made me not want to continue (so it fucked me in the end)
spent next 5 yrs smokin cigars and doing coke and partying hard as fuck.
Fast forward to a year ago... Im 215lb and feel weak and lazy all the time.... realize its time to get healthy once again
Started mountain biking this spring and got back into being healthy and fitness... then i decided its time to start lifting and doin cardio again and lose some fat.
So I was cutting for last 3 months, so I was eating tons of veggies/fruit/nuts/water... went from 214lbs to about 193lbs (6ft2"). So ive lost 20lbs of fat recently.... That was from eating SUPER clean, working out every second day, and running about 4 days a week. My workouts are super intense atm.... i do 200-225 pushups and 4x2min planks (for just my warmups every workout)
Sugar was the hardest shit to cutt from my diet. Its added to everything....
Basically most "fruit juice" is garbage, and has tons of added sugar. The liver can only process so much sugar at a time... so if your taking in 50 grams of sugar. Almost all of it is being processed into the fat cells. It was not until i cut most my sugar did i really start losing fat!
Clean food does cost more (chicken breast,steak, nuts, fruit veggies), compared to shit food (processed food, pop, chips, etc). But the benefits physically and mentally are worth the extra cost.
i buy all my nuts in bulk at waly world, meat in bulk from costco, most my produce from local farmers markets or from this supermarket close by (great price of fruit)

Good to hear your getting strong Sham. I used to be in the gym 5 days a week. These days i just workout at home...
I got everything i need here.. plates, bars, kettlebells, heavy iron Db's (40-60lbs). So i just converted a extra bedroom into my gym. I like to be in my zone and just giver...
I used to do split workouts back in the day (different area's different days). Now i do Full body workouts every second day. Legs, core, chest, back, arms all in one workout! Then i usually take more caff and go for a run.
I use 200-300mg of caff before every workout/run. With a caff boost im a fuckin beast 
Ill start posting my workout routines in the future... everytime i workout i try and make it a tiny harder (more reps or weight).
Feel free to post your routines. No judgment on anything in here... any workout is better then none.

Ive never been into jogging or running ever in my life.. but i fuckin love it now! When i started i could run 30 seconds at a time without getting winded..... Now i do 5 mins at a time.
I Just set timer on my phone and jog till the timer goes off, then walk for a min or so and do it again. Usually do 5-8 5min sprints a run.
Running is all mind vs body, to me. Your legs are screaming stop, lungs feel like they are gonna burst, but you gotta tell your body to shut up, and just keep going. Cant stop till you hear the timer go off...
Hardest part is the first 10 mins... after that your warmed up and its easy

200mg of caffeine + a couple hoots of nice sativa+ good music on loud (earbuds) = A beast mode run
Im soaked in sweat by the time i get home, with a nice endorphin smile on my face (usually dizzy too)
I live right beside a massive hilly park here. the trails are so long and some are almost straight up/down. Its perfect for running and biking... no crosswalks or lights to slow u down like city riding/runnin. The only people you see are other joggers, people on bikes, or hippies doin drum shit.



The trails are amazing. its only one block away from my house too.
I do enjoy urban mountain biking... rippin full speed through the city is insane and fun. See so much shit going full speed down any road, alley or place u wanna go. I go around cars, on sidewalk, down weird paths... Urban mountain biking is intense for sure

poor boy said: didnt realize this thread existed.
ive been thinking about upping my running to every day. so far its been every other day. i am getting faster and i am taking less breaks. my goal is to get to the end and back without taking a single break.
until i get more/ heavier weights, im going to work out daily with the dumbbell too. its only 20lbs, but it works, for now. i just have to do more reps.
i need to invest in a scale. if i were to guess, id say ove lost between 5-7 pounds in the last 2 weeks. alcohol really does pack on all that bullshit.
You really should let your legs recover.... If you run everyday u dont give ur muscles times to heal. Muscles grow when they heal. ive ran 4 days in a row once, and my legs were sooo sore i could hardly walk up my stairs.... I really giver tho!
how all fitness works: Working out rips the muscles, resting heals and makes muscles stronger (and bigger). So resting is more important then working out is in some ways. Just make each workout worth it! Over trainning is hard on the body and does nothing but get you and super sore.
the secret about running is to run LONGER not FASTER.... go a nice slow pace so u can jog/run for a long time . 3-4 times a week is considered alot of running. Just make your runs for a hour, and maybe rest the next day. Use a weighted vest, or go up and down hills to make it harder. (short strides downhill always!!!!!)
As for the 20lb db's.... they will work. but are way too small for most average men.
Low weight + high reps = burn fat , small lean muscles.
Heavy weight + low reps (5reps/5set) = big muscles (and burns lots of fat)
As for a scale: FUCK EM!!!! weight is so up and down that watching a scale is pointless. Muscles weighs sooo much more then fat. So if u burn 5lbs of fat but bulk 5 lbs or muscle u look great, but weigh the same

this is only half of my equipment. still got all my kettlebells/heavier db's/and bench+ bar at my storage locker.
Investing in GOOD cast iron equipment is always a great investment. these will last you a lifetime.. my shit is 8yrs old but still good
this is enough to get anyone ripped tho..... those big cast iron db's are no joke and u can do so many exercises with em.
The weighted vest is great of hiking or walking/joggin around. i can make it 0-40lbs... there is 25lbs or weight in it now, you feel it after a while. I look like im wearin a bullet proof vest when i wear it too.

Ya i could help you get started... you dont even need a bench and bars to get started.
grab some heavy iron dumbells and just get started....



Ill post my workout today. I do full body workouts every second day. I also run 2-4 times a week too.
My workouts are a lil more intense then splits, but i give my body 48hrs to heal so its not that bad.

I ate a cookie and was too sore and lazy to update with yesterdays workouts.
Yesterday
-Wake up and drink lots of water and eat good carbs (muscle food) with some protein and fruit.
Take 300mg of caffeine (sometimes i take ephedrine too), Then wait 45 mins to start my workouts. The caff gives a GREAT push for workouts/runs. Without it i would not be able to kill some of these workouts
Yesterdays workout
Warm-up & Regular shit
-50 Jumpin Jacks -15 Burpies -120 weighted vest push ups (20x6) just started doing weighted ones instead of 200-250 without weight. -planks (2 x 2:00 Normal ones) (1 x 1:50 for each side planks).
Exercises
-50lb dumbbell Jump squats ( 10 reps x4 sets)
-Curls 45lb single dumbell hammer curls ( 5 reps x 5 sets)
-Leg lifts/ core crunches ( 20x3 )
-Shrugs (50lb on one side, 55 on the other, alternative each set) 11reps x 4 sets
After this i stretch out good,from top to bottom....
THEN ITS TIME TO REFUEL Before Running.

Yesterdays postworkout refuel was Magnesium, Spirulina, Omegas, Almonds, PB on a Banana for my post workout. Its important to refuel after a good workout. Im still "Cutting" so im taking in less cals then i would if i was bulking...
Protein and nutrients is what u want post workout.... you dont need to drink some gross thick ass byproduct whey drink tho. fuck whey. You get better protein from real sources.
Then i take some more caffeine and go for a run for around an hour.

This is a block from my house. So i go to the tallest point then go running after i get to the top.
How i run is i set my timer on my phone, and jog till i hear the timer go off... when i started id do 30-50seconds at a time. Now Im up to doing 6:30 sprints at a time. I usually do 5 or 6 per run.
I use a pedometer on my phone...

This is my starts for yesterday. I like to keep track on my distances and times
Basically every time/week my workouts/runs/etc get harder and harder. After doing the same workout or run for a week or so it gets easy and boring. So im always changing weights, workouts, sets, places to run. Always challenging myself to get stronger, faster, better.
That workout i posted was basically what i do roughly everytime. but instead of jumpsquats next time, maybe ill do sumo squats, or prisoner squats.
Then next workout for curls maybe ill do hammer curls, or maybe use my curl bar. Same as for instead of doing shrugs, maybe ill do weighted dips, or db raises.... basically always changing it around and never getting anything too routine or comfortable .

Ya i could see how a 100lb vest could be bad for the spine. My back was getting sore when i used it with my squats, so now i just use it for pushups/pull ups or for running.
Im finding that i can run longer without it if i train with it. How i see it, its like i weigh 25lbs more, so my body just has to work a lil harder to run in it .
Well its Gains/workoutday today..... had a good breakfast and my caffeine already . Gonna go have a hoot and a steam soon, then ill kill a workout.
Today
-50 Jumpin jacks -15 burpies -4 planks (1.5-2mins) -120 pushups (weighted) -prisoner squats -barbell curl (80lbs) -core work -dips -?
then refuel and go run for a hour
The hardest part of ANY workout/run is the first 10 mins... its sucks, your muscles are not warmed up. You would rather relax.... but once u get over that hump of 10 mins the rest is easy and gravy.
I really get this with running.... first 10 mins suck balls... then after 10 mins, im warmed up and the rest is easy
