stuck @ 70
-
my weight is like stuck @ 70 now
can't lose it..
been doing HIIT for the past 6 weeks. about average 8 mins each time.. 30secs jog and 30secs sprint on the treadmill
incline 3.0
jog 5.5
run 13.0
no change in weight but shirt size drop to M
after that HIIT, i also do like 50mins of excercise such as pulldown, dips, hip flexor and bench press just to name a few..
what can i do to speed up fat loss? been cutting down on calorie intake as well, avoiding rice as much as possible.. -
weight loss not equal fat loss
for weight loss you only need to chop off a limb
One reason may be because you are gaining muscles at the same time, which has a higher density than fats -
yea i know, im focused on fat loss now.. and you just reminded me that about muscles densityOriginally posted by eagle:weight loss not equal fat loss

hmm
but i've been receiving comments like
"wow, you lost alot of weight recently"
"eh, did you put on weight or something?"
"erm, don't see any change in you"
btw.. whats the best way to lose baby fats? esp on the face? -
Why care what most people say..
Down here, if you gain some muscle, people say you become FATTER.
Dont rely on the weighing scale to gauge fat loss.You are putting on muscle and losing fat.
dont cut down on calories, eat more meat and vegetables.Of course cooked healthly. -
If you're doing intervals for 8 min, it's not HIIT. You shouldn't be able to sustain more than 5-6min unless you're extremely fit.
And get off the treadmill. There's no way you can sprint on a treadmill. -
ya.. after 5 to 6 mins, i get tired.. then i rest 1 min.. then continue.. of course resting it jogging speedOriginally posted by galapogos:If you're doing intervals for 8 min, it's not HIIT. You shouldn't be able to sustain more than 5-6min unless you're extremely fit.

u shouldnt hiit on treadmill.. got duno wat biomechanics thing i heard

I didn't say you get tired after 5-6 min, I said you can't sustain more than 5-6min. If you can, you're not doing HIIT. You should be tired after 2-3 min already.Originally posted by Agenda:ya.. after 5 to 6 mins, i get tired.. then i rest 1 min.. then continue.. of course resting it jogging speed -
what you mean?Originally posted by galapogos:I didn't say you get tired after 5-6 min, I said you can't sustain more than 5-6min. If you can, you're not doing HIIT. You should be tired after 2-3 min already.
each hiit session should only be 5 mins or so?
cause i saw on bodybuilding that 10 mins is ok -
sometimes it depends on the type of interval training right?Originally posted by galapogos:I didn't say you get tired after 5-6 min, I said you can't sustain more than 5-6min. If you can, you're not doing HIIT. You should be tired after 2-3 min already.
Like if you train for 2.4km, wouldn't it take longer than 5-6 minutes?
400m in 1.5 min
1.0 min rest
repeat 5 to 6 times
12.5 ~ 15 mins? -
im not starting a new thread for this.. but besides running and jogging.. what is good for training the calf muscle?
i have big muscles in that area when i strain but there are still fats around it..
what can i do? i heard that when do leg press, you can train your calf by using as little part of your feet as possible? -
calf raises, can do both single or double legOriginally posted by Agenda:im not starting a new thread for this.. but besides running and jogging.. what is good for training the calf muscle?

play basketball
soccer
fast walk (as in army's fast march)
HIIT-sprint -

something like from normal to standing tiptoeOriginally posted by Agenda:calf raise is which 1? -
do they have it in the gym ?Originally posted by eagle:something like from normal to standing tiptoe
my friend showed me one kind is to get into push up position then push your leg in until you feel strain at your calf then hold for 30secs before using your hand to push yourself upright again -
10 min wouldn't be HIIT unless you're an olympic athlete or something, which I'm guessing you're not.Originally posted by Agenda:what you mean?

I'm also 70kgs...
but i stand in @ 1.86m

Yes it depends on the type of interval training. I'm talking about High Intensity interval training. 400m intervals done 5-6x isn't high intensity.Originally posted by eagle:sometimes it depends on the type of interval training right?

sry ah, i thought hiit mean like sudden intensive exercise followed by mild then intensive again.
And i thought the intensive part is only more than 30secs or so. While the mild part is longer. -

hes juz saying if its HIGH INTENSITY, most people wouldnt be able to take it after 5 cycles.. which means hes telling agenda that his HIIT is not intensive enough?Originally posted by davidche:haha

What you're describing is interval training. HIIT is a subset of interval training.Originally posted by davidche:haha
