would say a … would say a basketball game be considered a fartlek kind of cardio where its kind of like random untimed intervals? i thought that was actually one of the best ways to workout because its like a run/sprint/walk random mixture. so if i played a full court pick up basketball game it would be the same as going out and jogging/walking for an hour or so right? but even more entense because of all the extra movements i have to do and adding in random sprints
@green3341 Im at … @green3341 Im at the beginning of my 18th week.. last week I weighed in at 233.0 which is about 20lbs lost from when i first posted and 25lbs total so far in 18 wks(not bad, very decent).. i now generally eat anything from 2100-2500 cals a day.. I know that increase is attributed to how active I’ve become b/c my appetite has increased, if im feeling hungry then I will eat, there’s no need to starve..
ok but a lot of … ok but a lot of time I do aerobic excersise but I tend to loose a lot of body mass sometimes. Even when I do a little weight lifting afterwards. What am I doin wrong…Please
I know you aren’t … I know you aren’t high on the p90x but I’ve just completed the 90 days and seen great results with the help of you videos. Do you think the plyometrics video is better than walking and running for calorie burn even though you do pause between each exercise? Im asking because it takes a lot of motivation to get up and jump around over going outside and getting a good jog on and I want to know if plyo gives me the best bang for my buck.
like your videos, … like your videos, not sure this one is the most accurate with having to include all of the legs, skip rope or hit a heavy bag for 20-30 minutes daily and see if you’re not losing weight
@davidbiton ive … @davidbiton ive heard 2:1 ratio is the best 2 minutes then 1 minute rest or 10 minutes running 5 minutes rest would be a bit boring and long time, so i would do an active rest
in the army we ran … in the army we ran timed distance 3x a week for about 3 miles at a 8-10min mile pace and the other day was interval training. we started off doing 60sec sprint:60sec walk, and gradually built up throughout the weeks to 120sec sprint and 30seconds jog for about 20minutes. we were all in awesome shape. granted we did constant moving all day but for our actual workouts it was that for cardio training and bodyweight exercises only for our workouts.
i agree with you … i agree with you and you can tell his doesnt know since obviously it looks like he is not a very fit guy i think he is kind of a little bit fat
@davidbiton Thats … @davidbiton Thats good. I prefer a little longer intervals however, so I don’t constantly need to change the speed on the treadmill. Keep in mind you need to be in good shape to do that.
what about 10/10 … what about 10/10 interval where you run at high intensity for ten second then stop for ten seconds and it keeps going on? is it as effective?
it’s been 3 weeks … it’s been 3 weeks and so far im at 252.5.. which is about 5.5 lbs.. I know i’ve gained some muscle b/c of the mirror and my strength increases..
*The more veggies and fiber i include in those 2000-2300 cals the more satisfied i feel..
*I always increase the weight, reps, or sets from the previous week when lifting
*I make sure I get 7-8hrs of sleep
Steve ur videos are definitely the best Ive come across.. I feel like I could do what im doing now for life..
I started at 258, I … I started at 258, I eat 2000-2300cals(max) daily consisting of anything: pizza, steak, spaghetti,etc. as long as it totals between 2000-2300cals, also I may eat 2 meals a day and snack in between or eat 4 meals a day and snack in between(doesnt matter), I lift weights on MWF and play basketball on Tues/Thurs. for about 1hr to1and1/2hr(including water breaks, new team selections, etc.).. I dont lift weights or play ball AT ALL on weekends and I may cheat on my diet but more than often not..
Let me tell you … Let me tell you someting… If you swim intensly for an hour you are going to burn a good chunk of calories. If you jump rope for an hour you are going to burn a load of calories. It does not require a hole leg recruitment to be effective cardio. I dont know what cracker jack BS he got this from but its not true. I use an arm cycler at my gym and it burns a ton of calories using smaller muscles. As far as his other examples like basket ball these are NOT aerobic sports they are anarobic.
@davidbiton Yes! … @davidbiton Yes! They’re great! I do a 20 minute HIIT workout. I sprint for a minute, then walk for a minute. Be sure to include a warm-up and cool-down.
