Fiddy_Ryder 01-22-2004, 07:13 AM NUMBNUTZ said: that with the continued routine will loose fat weight, gain muscle tone? well dependent on your age weight, you have a target heart rate for burning fat, for me at 165lbs 24yrs old is about 130-140 ... . you may want to up the cardio to about 45 mins and also you lifting,, 20 mins doesnt seem anywehre near enough. shoot for about 1hr http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif NUMBNUTZ 01-22-2004, 07:19 AM damm......I guess I thought i was doing good.............. Also.....bust this myth: you should only lift really hard one or 2 days a week, this gives time for the muscles to relax. oldgixxer 01-22-2004, 07:48 AM NUBNUTZ,check a few posts down under "weight loss".There is alot of good info in there for you to look at and ponder. If you want to gain lean mass,then you need to lift your ass off every session until you have nothing left in you.Otherwise you wasting time and hoggging the gym floor for the serious guys http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif. This is the tip of the iceberg man,you need to have a plan;a nutrition/lifting plan that works.Otherwise you wont get results,you'll eventually become frustrated and quit.You don't want your muscles to relax,you want them to recouperate and grow,ready to hit the weights again hard and heavy.
