Cardio in the morning, empty stomach. Watch the fat melt away

good luck bro

[JuiceSlut]

Work up to 1 hour cardio first thing in the morning on an empty stomach with some xenedrine, and then work up to 1 more hour of cardio after your workout. If you follow a good diet and do this cardio plan you will have no problems being lean by summer. By good diet only eat clean food with a mix of protein, carbs, and fats(supplement your fats from flaxseed, udos etc.)
proteins can include
tuna, salmon, chicken, fat free turkey, egg whites, lean steak
carbs can include
brown rice, broccoli, assparagus, yams, oatmeal

hey guys,
my roommate told me he read an article in men's heath or men's fitness magazine that says its bad to do cardio right when you wake up on an empty stomach cuz some chemical that is released in your body when you sleep hasn't been flushed outta your system yet...

whats up with that?

[the_rebirth]

Yea im gonna do a lot of cardio, and on top of that lift also. And then in 1month i will be taking (dont flame me if i say this wrong) Deca and some Testostrone to help speed up everything. Thanks all for the support so far and i cannot wait till i start droping them lbs!!!!

That would be cortisol...which is a negative thing when you are trying to build muscle, BUT, in this case it won't hurt a thing. when I dropped 100lbs, I did cardio in the mornings....it works!!

[the_rebirth]

Well so far i have lost 4lbs.. yay 4 me.. now more to follow

why would you take deca and test in order to speed fat loss?....thats a waste bro... stick to a strict meal plan, cardio and weight training...

[str82hellnback]

Dont make the mistake of taking deca and test yet bro. You will eventually need to increase your muscle mass but for now concentrate on eating clean and working out really hard. I have not had the experience myself but contact swolecat and ask for his help. I have heard that he changes lives. Also contact nuke he is my boy,good bro who can point you in right direction.

[wantbigmusl]

good job bro on the 4 lbs! Keep it up. Actually you look like you have a solid base anyway! Lucky bro. By summer you will be the stud!

[the_rebirth]

i wasnt planing on taking deca and test until im ready so whenever that will be i shall take it.. i contacted swolecat and awaiting his responce....
and thanks for the positive comments all

Hey bros good luck with your quest, im sure you will pull it off. As far as the diet and cardio goes , well I joined the body for life challenge and that worked really good for me. I lost 45 lbs in twelve weeks. I was able to train very intensely in the gym and maintain my muscle mass. IT is very straight forwards and simple, you should have a look. You can buy the body for life book at any book store. Good luck again, and stay strong.

[sonic]

Welcome. Don't rush into anything. Focus on your cardio for a while and you'll do fine. Good luck!

[the_rebirth]

Awesome change so far bro...3 weeks?!! Keep it up, and keep up posted on your results.

[FKITLETSGO]

Work hard and follow what your body tells you! I have not had the pleasure of talking to SwoleCat personally but have heard great things about him and judging from his pics can tell that he knows a great deal! Listen to what Swole says and if you need to double check anything I am here to help. Just contact me via PM or Email address which is provided through member profile!

[the_rebirth]
