D.A.F.C Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 If Herbalife was so good then why does it need to employ people to sell it to others? Surely shops would stock it if it was a viable alternative to a proper diet? There is no shortcut or magic pill, it's a lifetime choice not a fad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostin' Kev Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Just supplements that are of a lesser quality but higher price than you can buy elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BishyTON Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Wtf is it? Just drinking smoothies and working out? A lot of shit that doesn't work long term. Just like all the other fads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Herbalife and Insanity are the in the same bracket as AIDS imo. What's wrong with insanity?! I've done all sorts of exercise. Go through stages where I'll go to the gym every day, go running, football training etc etc and I find insanity one of the tougher things to do. Its just an exercise routine. Great for the winter and close season at the football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Started on insanity yesterday, so much pain. Keep going. Once you've done 3 weeks you'll start seeing results and it'll make it all the easier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 That's the FFIT course finished. I've lost 9.7kg since the end of October. I need to keep myself motivated now and not lapse into my bad old ways. I don't think I'd enjoy being in a gym, so I think my best bet is to get into cycling a bit more, in addition to maintaining my current walking levels. There's plenty of forest trails and quiet roads nearby, so I'm looking into getting a half decent beginners mountain bike. I can finally get shot of that ICT shirt now! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footiechick Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I was going to regular gym classes - spin, combat, pump and was pretty happy but got a free months trial doing crossfit during January. I've now signed up for this and its the best decision ive made. Different WODs (workout of the day) all the time. My body was in shock and felt muscles I never knew I had. Shoulders especially very sore at first! Great bunch of people and some heavy lifting but really loving it. Trying to follow the paleo way of eating but not totally strict and the omission of pasta, rice and bread makes me feel so much less bloated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I eat high fat/protein/low carbs 6 days a week myself and love that way of eating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 After about three of four months of whey protein I got bigger but also put on fat. Got to 11st 11lbs and added 5 body fat. Also felt bloated and slower at the fives. Plus side was lifting weights was so much easier and added lots of muscle. Going to stop and cut again back to 11st or less and get the fitness back. Stopping logging food on fitness pal was a mistake too. I reckon I could go back on them but maybe half the amount I was taking but really trying to cut the fat and get really lean in the next six months. Better being lean and fit than big and bloated, interesting to try it perhaps I jumped in with both feet to quickly? Still quite pleased to have increased the amount of weight I can lift, hopefully I can sustain it while cutting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpy Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 After a bit of a festive blip, I'm getting back to normal. I put 9lbs on, but I've managed to get 7lbs of it back off in the last 5 weeks. In an ideal world I would have liked to have Lost the 9lbs by now, but I'm pleased with my efforts so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest_Man#1 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 What should you be aiming for percentage-wise for your macronutrients, when trying to gain mass? The myfitnesspal app has me at 50% carbs, 30% fat and 20% protein, is that right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
