Why not do it yourself?

How's the job hunt going, btw?

Cant be arsed going all the way into Manchester to look at some drunk racist hooligans.

Not very productive. Never heard back from the Beeb about that thing.

When most people say "dieting", they mean eating healthy but not to their caloric maintenance level so that they can shed body fat over a period of time.

"dieting" as in "eating well" is something we should all do by default anyway.

But to answer your question: no. At least, not in a hugely impactful way. You'd be surprised how few calories an hour cardio session actually burns. It can certainly help, but there's a reason the saying goes "six packs are made in the kitchen, not the gym".

P.S. if you're not in good shape anyway, exercising every single day puts strain on your body. The body reacts to times of strain by chubbing up. So unless you're fairly fit with a body conditioned to it, 7-day-a-week training regimes can be counter productive.

I'm not massive but i got a beer belly on me.. I'm surprised how much a week of doing this has done though, the first jog i did was around 6K, fucking killed me, now i can do the first half only having to stop once for some water which is cool, lost a couple pounds i think.
So aslong as im chubby im alright to jog everyday right? :L

EDL demo in Manchester on the 2nd. Anyone in MancGAF want to go and throw a bottle of piss at them for me?

Isn't it just you and meadows there?

I didn't expect you too, but it's good practice for putting applications in.

Just apply apply apply. Like, as many jobs a day as you can. Even shitty bar work or cleaning. Get mad stacks asap.

I honestly wouldn't recommend it. You're just knackering your knees and ankles and you'll likely give yourself an injury.

If you want to exercise every day, best thing to do would be to alternate jogging days with resistance days. Something like this:

Day 1 - jogging
Day 2 - pushups, pullups, situps, and squats
Day 3 - jogging
Day 4 - pushups, pullups, situps, and squats
Day 5 - jogging
Day 6 - pushups, pullups, situps, and squats
Day 7 - rest

You'll get fantastic results in a couple of months if you actually stick to that along with a good diet.

 

[SKINNER!]

Tash, your exercising is good. Keep that up and just cut back on the beer and junk shit to once a week (as a treat after a week's hard work) and you'll be fine. Its 50% eating healthy and 50% exercise.

Also, the EDL are such a nuisance. There's a difference between loving your country and being a racist twat. If it were not for cultural diversity then we wouldn't have cool foods, drinks, items to use.

Okay shorty

Yeah Cheez, we in the same boat, apply to every fucking job you think will be even half decent at, I applied to a fucking burger king the other day

Day 1 - jogging
Day 2 - pushups, pullups, situps, and squats
Day 3 - jogging
Day 4 - pushups, pullups, situps, and squats
Day 5 - jogging
Day 6 - pushups, pullups, situps, and squats
Day 7 - rest

Okay.. I'll do this from tomorrow, see how it feels

Don't jog, it'll fuck up your knees. Get a bike.

If he's going carefully and not over-training, with rest days, he'll be fine.

Tash - the key is to pace yourself and not try for too much progress too quickly. The accepted rule of thumb is to do no more than 10% extra this week than you did last week. Build slowly to avoid injury.

Yeah, I'm more of a power-walking man myself now. Jogging used to mess up my left knee for days. But swimming is the best cardio exercise according to my GP so if you have access to a pool then go for it.

 

[Hystzen]

Rising is done 6hours+ with 37 deaths and a C rank on Hard. I wil take that was sure going have higher death count onto Very Hard

I might follow this. I'm good at hiding the chub, but I would like to one day be able to walk around shirtless without any shame.

In front of girls.

I am living with two girls next year.

I want to arouse people casually.

Get down the gym: free weights, some cardio, with a high protein diet. Sorted.

 

[Chinner]

get to the gym, make sure you eat lots of protein, don't take illegal substances such as creatine and do bicep curls in the squat wrack.

I do 300 bicep curls looking moody in the corner every time I go. Come at me duck.

 

[Seanbob11]

Creatine isn't Illegal.

 

[Hystzen]

Do you even juice brah

 

[Chinner]

take frog-tech it will make you MASSIVE.

 

[Little Old Man]

Creatine isn't Illegal.

It is. My mate took too much, and his bicep literally exploded due to the excess water it built up in his muscle, during an intense bicep curl session. Blood everywhere. He finished the set though, that's what counts.

/bro science.

 

[Hot Coldman]

what the fuck language are you people talking

i once went into the gym toilets and i saw my mate doing lines of creatine on the toilet seat, i pleaded with him to stop; that he had a problem and needed help. he told me had it under control, but later on he got a upset stomach and a mild head-ache and had to leave the gym without finishing his bench.

i can barely look at him nowadays.

What a weak ass guy. Good thing you dropped him, he would have only slowed you down.

On a serious note, if I ever do bother signing up to my uni's gym, what kind of regime should I go for if I'm only trying to lose weight at first?

Try the fitness thread.

I go three times a week: 15 minutes of cardio, followed by weights, split into three muscle groups for each visit. But I have different goals to you, so I doubt mine would really apply.

WTF? Spoilers, arsewipe.

 

[Musha_Soturi]

Me normally does no exercise and eats a lot of chocolate, cake, crisps, cheese, junk food etc.

So dieting for me means drinking only water, eating porridge, salad, yoghurt, meat, fish and vegetables. No potatoes, no fruit, whole grain rice only once a week, and nothing else. But I eat a lot of salad and veg because starving yourself doesn't work.

Also getting up a bit earlier to do 15 mins on the cross trainer every day, and push ups/sit ups/squats every evening.

Last year I lost a stone in 6-7 weeks. I've been lax recently and put on a few pounds. I'm 9st 13lbs now and I want to be 9 1/2 by my Mum's wedding, so I have 6lbs to loose in 4 weeks, fingers crossed shouldn't be a problem!

What I love about this image is that he genuinely thought he looked badass with the hat covering the eyes thing.

There's a level of sincerity there which makes it all the more tragic and hilarious.

No, fedoras have cool frames of reference (noir detectives, Indiana Jones etc.) Nerds look terrible in them, but at least there's a cultural logic to their trying.

This guy genuinely thinks he looks badass in a baseball cap worn by a 10 year old in a cartoon aimed at 5 year olds.

Think about that for a second.

I've never seen a Fedora look bad on anyone. That cap is so late 90s its untrue. Fedora is timeless.

 

[Hot Coldman]

I've never someone wearing a fedora who wasn't acting like he was incredibly aware that he was wearing a fedora

No-one can casually wear such a thing

I'm serious. I often wear one myself on nights out. I'm always getting looks from everyone, makes me look like the individual I am!

..that isn't actually green scar is it?

I didn't even have to try hard here. These are just the first two pages of googling for people in a fedora:

Conclusion: nobody looks good in a fedora outside of a 1920s-50s context.
