401 to 170, Future Marine

Current diet breakdown,

Every night make one large meal that has 250g protein, 180g fat, 15g net carbs

Can you give an example of such a meal? I'm losing weight (a lot slower than you though) and am looking for this. My current diet is terrible.

@andy chow, sorry been neglecting to update this regularly, but to answer your question.

basically it would all depend upon your macros as to the portion size, and overall amount you need to cook at once. but things i eat throughout the week are like this,

Chicken, portabello slices, broccoli, minced onion, garlic paste. - Stir fry with olive oil, season with fresh cracked pepper, soy sauce, and balsamic vinegar.

Cod, wrapped in cabbage leaves and steamed. - served with braised greens (like collards or mustard greens or kale)

Grilled Skirt steak with honey glazed carrots and sauteed turnip greens.

You do 5 hours of cardio a day? Why?

You do 5 hours of cardio a day? Why?

its 7.5hours, 4 days a week now.

however as to why, its more about cutting stored carbs and water than anything else. its also motivational for me to prove to myself i can accomplish things i would have thought insane b4.

no supplements, except multi vitamin and krill oil.

only sit ups i do are done on a cable version low row machine, lay back pulling 250lbs, then slowly situp using it as resistance/aid

Glad your accoplishing something but you might be better off doing less time and doing it fast.
HIIT FTW! I love it

been working my butt off, both literally and figuratively.

getting annoyed by the amount of time i devote to the gym each week, it has become a full time job just about 40 hours each week. the ratio of work to reward has become pretty lean, was losing 10lbs/week now down to 6lbs or less.

decided now is a good time to try and work smarter. however changing the program up and going the "one hour a day" that everyone seems to suggest doesn't feel right.

6 pound a week is still exceptionally good. Don't beat yourself up. In 10 weeks you'll be down another 60 pound if you keep this up!!!

MARINEORDIE!

That why you should do less time higher intensity training.

A normal day of lifting for me only takes 30-40 mins. Then if I really want too I do 10-15 mins of HIIT.

If you do HIIT correctly it will be so intense the 15 Mins you did will feel like you ran a marathon.

[ToshiroAki]

calories in vs calories out right?

2.5mph-5%grad-2hours over the day = 1,600 calories

3.5mph -10%grade-15min = 300 calories.

----

now provided one has the time why not go for the 1,600?
