Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah. I've put weight on since going on the contraceptive pill after having to have my implant taken out ( it was making me sick so it had to come out despite my reluctance). I don't have much time or much chance to get out and exercise right now and I'm really worried I'm going to become Fatty McFat Arse I'm being very careful with what I'm eating but I'm still gaining weight What are good in house exercises I can do to try and tame this weight gain before it gets out of control? Bear in mind that right now going out for runs/walks/gym visits and swimming are out of the question.

I'm not kidding when I say hula hooping is great cardio, plus its cheap. If you have a Wii, I think WiiFit is a good investment, if you can take its constant teasing and rubbing in your face on how fat/skinny you are.

There's also exercise videos on youtube, I used a few of the yoga ones before, but without a whole lot of success due to cat constantly pestering me.

I have a friend who got a Wii Fit a couple of months ago and she dropped about 20 pounds so far, she said it has been great for slimming down her hips and thighs, which she has always had problems with. Hula hooping and dancing are both great for cardio, as are jumping jacks and jump rope.

Well, I can easily get hold of a skipping rope and a hula hoop. We have enough space out in the garden to use them and its fenced in so the kids in the village won't be able to see me shaking my fat ass

I fucking LOVE my jump rope! I'm dropping weight like mad, lately, and part of it is due to that. I've also upped my weight reps and have been very strict on my eating habits. Because of class, some days all I have to eat for breakfast is coffee and a banana. I'm about to have to go clothes shopping because all of my jeans are loose.

I feel great the last few weeks nourishing my body and my mind.

It's not that I'm lazy or greedy. I've always been careful with what I eat and I was until recently, going out running and walking every day but it's just not possible at the moment. That's why I'm trying to find things I can do in the house or garden so I'm on hand at all times for Mum. On a side note, I'm being put on even more medication so I am hoping that also doesn't lead to extra weight gain :-/

MissC, we know you're not lazy or greedy, hun. You have extenuating circumstances. Don't feel pressured to do everything right now, dude. You've got some tough shit going on and if someone says anything to you about it I'll fly where ever they are and punch them in the dick for you.

My friend swears by boxing with a punching bag. We have one set up by taking a bed mattress and hanging it with a Prusik from the ceiling in our tent, and judging by how much he sweats when he's finished, I'm inclined to believe him.

Aside from good cardio, it also makes you look cool when girls are watching.

Loving the fencing idea (I would so rock that shirt), but sadly, there's nothing in my area. Might try out the Kickboxing club at my university, when term starts again.

MC: skipping is a great idea, when you need to be around at home and can't do anything that takes you away for too long. (Hope that's all going okay, by the way.)

Pulled a fucking muscle slightly in my left thigh FUCKING OWWWWW.

So now my cardio is off the menu until it heals up. No legs bums N' tums for me tonight, no yoga tomorrow ( god knows I don't want to stretch it any more ! )

It's not excruciating but I don't want to aggravate it further. I'll hve to do the hand bike thing for my cardio at the GYm Wednesday. And no squats.


Versus... That is DISGUSTING and now I cannot unsee it.

Age and hormones also add to the weight issues. Have you tried Atkins?

I agree with Versus boxing is great. You can also get resistant bands which are reasonably cheap and you can do a solid workout with them.

oh and I think Arnie was smokin' hot when he was younger - I had a huge crush on that guy - remember borrowing my older sister's ID to get into see running man at the cinema.

I'm back... just. Got viral vertigo, temporarily (i hope) hearing loss in my right ear completely and can just barely hear in my left ear. Just started back at the gym after two weeks of feeling like shit.

Bah I've put on 10lbs in the last few weeks, I'm not really sure how or why as I have definitely been more active and I've made no changes to my diet (and before someone says that I'm most likely loosing fat and putting on muscle that doesn't look too likely). Hopefully it is just from all the stress that Beth caused and it will go away now that I don't ever have to see her again.

Stress, age, hormones all add to the weight gain, sorry to say.

Keep active, go by inches rather than the scales.

Went to the gym, managed 20 minutes one day on the cross trainer (dawdling) and 40 minute stroll on the treadmill. fark this illness.

Destroyer Workout System Ver 1.0

If you are serious about working out, I suggest you get the PDF "Building the Gymnastic Body". This will teach you how to build a superior body without weights. Realistically, you can build the body you want in 1 year tops. Not only did I invent this program I personally use this myself.

Below you will find my workout program called:

"DESTROYER"

In order to build the body you want study my shit with a mutha-fonking homicidal passion and yes you too will DESTROY!

Nutrition

Cals = 22 cals per pound * body weight
(How many calories you need per day for this system.)

Protein 2 grams protein * body weight
(How many grams of protein you need per day for this.)

Drink at least 6-12 ounces of water everyday!

The Program: DESTROYER

Weight to work out with (rocks, weights, dead bodies) is whatever you are comfortable with and can complete the sets (You can do this without weights and go through the motions if it's simpler). The Gymnastic holds can be done with 2 concrete blocks or 2 elevated objects to hold yourself up. Hanging sit-ups can be substituted with regular sit ups.

DO NOT CHEAT !!! DO THE FUCKING PROGRAM AND YOU WILL GET RESULTS !!! BY CHEATING IN THE PROGRAM YOU ONLY CHEAT YOURSELF!!! THIS IS NOT A BEGINNERS WORK-OUT PLAN !!!

MON

Dead lift (3 sets for 20 reps)
Shrugs (3 sets for 20 reps)
Military Press (3 sets for 20 reps)
Bike (10 Mile or 2 five mile sets) (Stationary included)
Hanging Pull-ups (20 sets of 36)
Gymnastic Plank (30 one minute fixed static holds)

Tues - Skip Day (Muscle Confusion)

WED

Push-ups (12 sets of 25 reps)
Bike (10 Mile or 2 five mile sets) (Stationary included)
Hanging Pull-ups (20 sets of 36)
Side Plank (30 one minute fixed static holds)

THURS

Deltoid Curls (3 sets of 20 reps)
Bicep Curls (3 sets of 20 reps)
Bike (10 Mile or 2 five mile sets) (Stationary included)
Hanging Pull-ups (20 sets of 36)
Gymnastic Maltese (30 one minute fixed static holds)

FRI

Squat (3 sets of 20 reps)
Calves (3 sets of 20 reps)
Bike (10 Mile or 2 five mile sets) (Stationary included)
Hanging Pull-ups (20 sets of 36)
Gymnastic L-Sit (30 one minute fixed static holds)

SAT

Military Press (3 sets of 20 reps)
Head Stand (3 sets of 20 reps)
Bike (10 Mile or 2 five mile sets) (Stationary included)
Hanging Pull-ups (20 sets of 36)
Gymnastic Maltese (30 one minute fixed static holds)

SUN - rest (muscle confusion)


Follow this program and attempt to complete all sets and reps. If you can't, do as many as you can for each exercise and move on to the next. At a minimum, take 1 minute rest between each set.

I fucking personally promise you that if you can master this program, in 1 year you will have a body that DESTROYS !!! (This includes males, females, and all other genders).

WHOSE READY TO BE DESTROYED !!!

Annihilator work out program!

ANNIHILATOR work out program DESIGNED by ME. USED by ME. MADE for YOU and your FUCKING MUSCLES.

HERE is the ANNIHILATOR work out program.

First, make sure that you're fucking HYDRATED because exercise makes you HOT and it fucking SUCKS. So drink shit like WATER, or maybe a FUCKING GATORADE if you've washed away your GOD DAMN ELECTROLYTES from being ANNIHILATED.

CALORIES. I'm pretty FUCKING sure calories are a unit of MEASUREMENT to express how much GOD DAMN ENERGY your body gets when it ANNIHILATES food in your FUCKING INTESTINE, so REALISTICALLY, you can EAT WHATEVER THE SHIT YOU WANT as long as your caloric INTAKE is matched with your EXPENDITURE, otherwise your dumb ass body will turn that shit INTO FAT so it can use it for LATER like a god damned CHUMP.

Anyway, the WORKOUT looks a little like this:

Monday

ANYTHING BUT NOTHING

Tuesday

ANYTHING BUT NOTHING

Wednesday

ANYTHING BUT NOTHING

Thursday

ANYTHING BUT NOTHING

Friday

ANYTHING BUT NOTHING

SATURDAY

ANYTHING BUT NOTHING

Sunday

ANYTHING BUT NOTHING. Personally, I like to call my FUCKING mom because she will ANNIHILATE ME if I don't talk to her at least ONCE a FUCKING WEEK. WHAT A BITCH!!!!!!

KEEP THIS UP for at least ONE EARTH YEAR while putting forth a LEGITIMATE EFFORT to exercise and I FUCKING GUARANFUCKINGTEE that you will have the BODY that YOU WANT.

Ha, nice

Excellent feedback. Funny too. I blew milk out of my nose.

Yea, I guess I see where you're coming from. It wasn't meant to come off like a bad commercial(maybe it did).

But oh, good jest, good jest.
