So, I have an hypothesis. I think that the key to creating a good steady workout routine may be specifically related to my endurance. I.e doing walking lunges and the such to build greater cardio endurance. I am hoping to make it so that I can manage the stress of my 274 pound body more easily when doing body weight exercise as to allow for a sustainable model. So I was wondering if the community could help me devise a joint safe way to increase my cardio and general endurance through more weight safe exercises. So that I won't wreck my knees running and such. Currently I am going with twenty minutes of exercise bike changing pace every 5 minutes slow to fast and back again, and around 50 lunges. I remember reading that lunges were a gateway to good running and endurance. If any of you have been in my position and have a good exercise regiment for boosting my endurance so I can handle both my workouts and general athletics better that would be great. Many thanks,-Dr T

I did my own variation on beginner from 320 to 280 but yeah after two days my legs and core was soooooo angry. After 4 days of recoup I am doing it every two days now for proper recovery and I added 30 second plank. I need more pull exercises but the main issue I am running into is lack of equipment to do such exercises. :/

So I want your opinion at 283 is 100 squats a day with 100 crunches and 50 push-ups with 10 kettle rows per side safe to do daily?

Okay thanks, yeah I found the poster from the startbodyweight.com and was going to find some exercises to balance it out. So far my routine has got me down 35 pounds.

I am just trying to loose weight so I can get my self healthy enough to start serious strength training and the such.

Okay I have been working on the program a while. Mind you I never really stretch with my workouts which I have been told can lead to issues, so yeah. 30 squats 15 push ups 15 knee-push ups 15 full crunches/lifting my legs instead/with my upper body 30 lunges 15 diamond push ups 15 d-p on knees 15 sit ups 15 side kettel rows each side 25 second plank 45 jumping jacks repeat once more I do that every second day 3 times a week. every day I don't do that I do M-100's because I am still to blubbery to run without getting really winded. I warm up by running up and down a flight of stairs six times. <- M-100I was going to move up to three sets soon and might just amalgamate the knee push ups with the normal push ups. I don't know if I was going to start move in skipping for my cardio conditioning because I heard running is really hard on the knees. So yeah, any opinion's are greatly appreciated as well as resources.

Best way I found to tackle cravings was to just turn off tv and everything and just sit there. And stare at the kitchen or something till I get really bored. Also dont have said craving in the house. p.s I am 17 so my stress levels are barren. But thatd what I do.

I did and I am now down another 13 pounds and loving it, I started moving into daily work outs to help even out the body weight curve. Thx for your support!

Today marks the seventh week of just doing something atleast every 2 days. Weight my self today and I am 22 pounds lighter and under 300 pounds for the first time in 3 years! WOOOT

Sorry for your loss. I wanted to tell you the best way to stay focused and on the ball is to get a small book for journaling something you don't have to put down and can constantly keep on you as a reminder I find its really helpful with keeping with a commitment when it has its own body and manifestation always on you. Keep up the awesome work and good luck.

Thanks for the support, now onto business. Yesterday ate pretty heavy and didn't work out bit upset about that but the past is the past, today I ate pretty light early and had my first meal a half hour ago which was a couple of spaghetti sandwiches one of which was doubled up. I am hoping to get through a workout tonight all lower body bag work and body weight stuff going to for a upper lower pattern. Edit Okay I am done my work out I am guessing at around 40 min only 30:29 after I started wat h when I started heavy bag stuff Did Body weight squats 25 25 Body weight lunges 10 10 Push ups 10 10 Standing leg lifts 30 Heavy bag kicks 10 10 Knees 20 20 Full punches 10 10 2 punch flurry 10 10 3 punch flurry 10 10 15lb side rows 20 10 6 3 3 3 20 lb biceps curl 20 10 6 3 Crunches 20 20

Currently my work outs are mostly body weight stuff and a lot of Tai chi and Heavy bag work. Current weight 310. Today I got in around 2000 calories mostly carbs but I ate some fruit to and soup so meh. Today I worked out about an hour. So yeh. Next post from me tommorow.

Hello there. I am Doctor_T_Love and I am apparently *Looks at card* A human monk. Cool. Okay well lets see right now the most my work out consists of is using my (vast) body weight to train primarily. I also beat the living (Censored) out of my heavy bag and thats about it. I dont really eat healthy yet. So yeh. Uhhhhmmmmmmmm.... I dont know the rebellion is probaly the most user friendly fitness community I have found so far (as to why I joined it). I am not a licensed doctor either so that up there is actually a falsity. I really have only ever done my high school gym program as well as Judo and Iado. Though neither of the martial arts I have really stuck with. So yeh thats me. - Doctor_T_Love Doctor T Love, level 1 Human monk STR 2|DEX 4|STA 1|CON 1|WIS 4|CHA 3 "Wait, don't press that button?
