Re: Bahtatboy's Blubber-Slashing Blog
Preparation Week: Day 3
HIIT* on Concept2 rower at 6am, on an empty stomach
Meals / Snacks
05:45 Lemon squeezed into big glass of water
07:30 Meusli with skimmed milk
10:30 Glass of skimmed milk
13:00 Tin of tuna, half tin of toms
16:00 Small handful of nuts
18:30 3-egg omelette
22:00 Small handful of nuts, glass of skimmed milk
01:30 Small portion plain, low-fat yoghurt
What I Did Well Today
Got up early, good acclimatisation CV workout
Clean food
Plenty of water
No booze
What I Should Do / Do Better Tomorrow
Eat every 2 ½ - 3 hours
Have some boiled eggs handy as snacks
Low intensity exercise in the evening (walk or swim)
Put the nuts I'm permitted / intend to eat in a small container, and put the remainder well out of reach
*HIIT: High Intensity Interval Training
Effort is rated subjectively from 1 to 10. 1 is doing nothing, just sitting there breathing. 5 is exercise at a level that you could do for hours on end, eg medium-paced walking. 6 is mildly taxing, but not strenuous. 10 is balls-out effort that you can just about maintain for 1 minute. The regime I use is from Body For Life, slightly modified. Total 24 mins, after which you should feel spent. However, since I'm still in Prep mode, I scaled it back by about one Level for each interval—haven't done hard CV for some time.
5 mins warm up at Level 5
1 min Level 6
1 min Level 7
1 min Level 8
1 min Level 9
(no break in rowing, just easier to read)

Re: Bahtatboy's Blubber-Slashing Blog
Na, I'm 28. I'm 188cm and 85Kg. Due to my sport there is not an ounce of fat on me.
Anyway, I don't care for all those statistics...my measurable is my 10K, half marathon, olympic tirathlon and ironman times..
They tell a good enough story.
For what its worth, I think the OP is over complicating this whole thing.
Train well, stay off the weights and eat properly. I still drink beer and have dropped a KG since Friday.
I have access to and am surrounded by some of the best athlete's in UAE and have professionals an email away, the message is simple..train, eat, recover and the weight will look after itself

Re: Bahtatboy's Blubber-Slashing Blog
6' and 100kg. I can yo yo 2 inches on my waist within a week or 2 though depending on what I am doing or not doing.
After my Desert B & B i was a 32'' Waist, now a 36/38 though my old jeans are 34.......
I look proportioned though probably clinically obese, but I can still run rings around the whipper snappers on a 5 aside pitch, the same ones that call me a FB.
