To lose 35-40lbs in 4 months

[mitchlan87]

Basically in the worse condition of my life. Weigh 279lbs, 6.2" with a naturally stocky build. Aim is to get to 240lbs for June and to be very fit ready for competitive tennis season and ready for football (soccer) at the end of the summer. Have sorted my diet and am taking etherdrine tablets that are suppost to be good, any feedback on them!? What I need to know it, whats the best things to be doing in the gym for both weight loss and actually CV fitness?

Any advice and storys would be great, cheers

-2.5lb per week is very doable for someone your weight

never heard of the tabs

i always to increase CV capacity for specific sports, one should practice said sport (drills ,actual games). look for tennis/soccer training routines.

Well if your looking to both boost weight loss and up your CV Health, cardio would be your best bet. I would hit the weights as well to help build strength and muscle. Just the basics, you dont need to get to deep into things, eat good and exercise.

Thanks for the input. I must stress I am a big guy, not massively fat just got a belly on me at the min lol. Very broad shouldered and very strong muscular legs so would expect to lose 4lbs a week through training, well hope too

....Have sorted my diet....

Describe this for us.....

Whenever I read something like this, warning bells go off.

In detail, tell us what you plan to eat every day.

Do you mean ephedrine tabs? If so, check if they are the real thing (ephedrine/ephedra, not the extract which is usually some herbal BS). If you are taking those and don't know a lot about them, go research them. Avoid intense cardio while taking them especially at a heavier weight to avoid some serious problems. Also drink a LOT of water.

I also suggest breaking your goals up a bit more. Instead of constantly thinking about losing 40lbs which is only one goal, make your first goal to drop 15lbs in X amount of time. If you only set one goal, you don't feel as much motivation/reward from your successes along the way. If you set a bunch of small goals then every time you reach one you are that much more motivated to hit the next. Just my approach, others prefer one big goal.

With a lot of discipline this goal is possible, drink a lot of water, get a lot of protein and bust ass. Good luck man.

I pulled this off using Keto about a year ago. Granted, I then had an unrelated medical issue and fell off the wagon, but Im back on and lifting again.

In 118 days of documented weight loss, I have lost 53 lbs. So its easily possible to lose 40 lbs in 4 months at your weight. I've actually lost 75 since mid- August.

Just a combination of diet, excercise and supps for me.

hey man I have lost 30lbs since November and still counting. Definitley doable, you just have to keep your mind right and your diet clean. One thing that I found when trying to get back into good shape is that the long cardio was doing not much for me in terms of cardio for things like basketball, but as soon as I started doing some HIIT my work capacity and endurance skyrocketed

it's all about changing your life style and eating healthy... 40 lb you'll lose that and you don't even now it.. just work hard count your calories. don't give up..
