/r/fitness: newbie program picker -> Fat Loss -> More than 10kg/25lbs:
Use a calculator such as this one to get an estimation of how many calories you should be consuming daily. Increase the amount of vegetables you consume (potatoes don't count :) ) because fiber helps in giving a feeling of fullness. Increasing your protein intake (via either consuming more meat or simply drinking whey protein shakes ) will both boost muscle gain and provide a longer-lasting feeling of fullness than carbs will.
Take weekly photographs of yourself, preferably in underwear/shorts so that you can see your belly, thighs and arms. If you're gaining muscle while losing fat, the weight on the scale may change less than you expect, but the mirror doesn't lie. Recording everything you eat will also make you more conscious about your intake and definitely helps in weight loss.
The thing that's really going to make or break your success is how well you focus and stick to your diet. Many people have successfully lost large amounts of fat by switching to a low carb diet. Keep in mind that this may not be the most suitable diet for everyone, but by far the majority of the population should see positive results.
For best results, you should combine this program with some form of exercise. The best form of exercise is the one that you enjoy doing. Whether it's weightlifting, running, swimming, mountain climbing, football, or throwing a frisbee around with friends, anything that gets your heart rate up for an hour or two will be beneficial.
Keep in mind that sustaining a caloric deficit can lead to loss of muscle mass as well, which is usually a Bad Thing. To avoid this, it is usually recommended to do some form of strength training atleast 2-3 times per week. Check out the muscle gain section of the Program Picker for more info regarding strength training programs.
Remember, the exercise will help, but the factor that will decide your fat loss is your diet. If you feel you're too heavy to do bodyweight exercises or anything inside a gym without hurting your joints, you can just go for a pleasant 30-45 minute walk daily while strictly controlling your diet, and you'll have to buy a new, smaller set of clothes soon. Once you reach a weight where you feel comfortable about doing some more strenuous exercise, check out the program picker again.
tl;dr: Eat vegies and protein at a caloric deficit. Take progress pics. Do a form of cardio you enjoy. Lift to maintain muscle, buy the Starting Strength book and get lifting. Become Swole.
I scoured the lands, through many valleys and frequently was told by soothsayers and breathern that my weakness was TI bands or my LCL. But nay! This explanations, much like a soothsayer reading stars and horoscopes, only partially fit my puzzle but neverthless left me puzzled still.
And then lo, I stumbled upon https://youtu.be/URP-zMbryEc and it explained much! Praise be to Brodin, when next I humbly visited his temple I did as asked and I was blessed with many gainz.
Brodin did not create me in his likeness to continue my ignorant ways. So I did continue my quest for more lore in the dungeons at the Tube of You. And I hunted for armor within the dangers of the Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B011PYZNRE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_1vcDCbJC7S345
And the gainz! They were a glory to behold my friend! Praise be to Brodin!
Brother, you will think my answer in jest - but my words come from a place deeper than parallel in mine heart.
Purchase for thine self the cookbook "Fifty Shades of Chicken," for therein lie many easy and wonderful rituals by which birdflesh may be transmuted into gains.
http://www.amazon.com/Fifty-Shades-Chicken-Parody-Cookbook/dp/0385345224
With this and the Modern Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding, your swole will resist all attempts at control. Wheymen.
Brother you have discovered the truth of our devotions and achieved enlightenment. Attention is the only reason we lift. Health? There is nothing of health in 600lbs upon our shoulders as we drop our asses within inches of the floor but the attention this brings...
Clothing does not fit our strange proportions , our look is that of Shrek and we say amongst ourselves that they 'mire but do they? Nay, brother, they do not yet still we have their attention and that is enough
We posses the strength to lift a Wagon of whey yet lack the stamina to change a tire. Does this concern us? Nay, brother, not at all. Changing a tire is of no consequence to others yet lift a Wagon and they will pause
Those who bear the cross of fit understand this truth inherently but they lack our physical attainment. To compensate for this they never SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY! JESUS CHRIST WE GET IT!!... ahem... forgive me for i am a man of passion.
It is your time , Brother. Depart with pride and form a temple of your own. Spread the word as written in the good book
Behold, he who feasteth upon the fowl known as Chicken! Thy prayers soon are to be answered, for thou shalt NEVER again cook this bird to any temperature other than perfection. I show you the path to the Javelin of Gefjun. She is the goddess of agriculture and tamed beasts, and this, her magical weapon, always reveals the internal temperature of any animal it skewers: Gefjun's Javelin, forged by the Dwarves of the Lave Tools
​
There are other more affordable weapons for this task, as are there other more expensive ones, but Gefjuns is perfect for the swoldier that demands quality and value.
​
Brother, thou will never be disappointed if thou use this lance. Thy chicken shall always succulent be, and they belly filled with joy as they muscles excess to swole!
I have the same problem with earbuds falling out but I recently got a pair of [Anker wireless earbuds](http://www.Anker.com/ SoundBuds Slim Wireless Headphones, Bluetooth 4.1 Lightweight Stereo Earbuds with Magnetic Connection, NANO Coating Sweatproof Sports Headset with Metallic Housing & Built-in Mic (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N6DC2ZE?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf) and can honestly say they are great. For the price they are a steal and Anker is a great company.
They don't noise cancel but fit snugly enough that I can't really hear anything outside.
The best tool for guidance is a basic Anatomy and Physiology textbook, to see all of the muscles, their origins and insertions, and how they generate force. However, that's time consuming and somewhat boring, so here are some quick links to books that have information regarding exercise specificity; i.e. what to do for which muscles you want to work out:
Still halfway decent and for both genders, despite the title.
Not such a fan of Rippetoe, as I tend to go the bodybuilder route, and strength is less of a priority, but still a good source.
--------------------------
Also, if you're so inclined, a purchasing a single session with a personal trainer to help you sort out your program would do wonders. (Make sure the trainer has some sort of certification, though--B.S. or higher in Sports Medicine/Exercise Science/Athletic Training, ACSM, NCSA, etc.)
Brother, get thee to a soup crock pot. Your meals will not need to be put into the fridge.

​
Mods, forgive me if the link is not to be included. But think of other brothers and sisters who may face a similar dilemma! Even on construction sights/schools/park ranger stations, where some of our swoliest work, they have electric outlets where this may be plugged in for a warm and satisfying meal worth of Brodin's love.
It looks good for a start, but I wouldn't recommend putting any real weight on them. I've seen people move power racks when reracking weight and I can't imagine those will hold well over 100 lbs.
Maybe save up and get something like this?
go for something like this. the most awesome thing ever. i only wish that i could wear them everywhere.
I have been looking at one brother, I have read that it's better to get one you can put in the wall on studs in the wall. From what I heard the door ones aren't as safe cause they can slip. But I have not used either. If you can't do that then maybe something like this.

>yohimbine HCL
Is this the stuff you were talking about? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Maximuscle-Thermobol-Definition-Formula-Tablets/dp/B0013G8N4A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1375872534&sr=8-1&keywords=yohimbine+HCL
> ephedrine and caffeine
Is that a pre workout? Got a link to where I can get them? (I'm in the UK).
My current workout routine is a 3 day split twice over one week so:
Day 1: Chest and Biceps
Day 2: Shoulders and Legs
Day 3: Back and Triceps
1 day Rest
Repeat
I used to do Ice Cream Fitness 5x5 program and I was getting stronger but didn't really see aesthetic gains so I switched it up to this doing 8-10 reps and a new routine. What'd you think?
Brad Schoenfeld's M.A.X. Muscle Plan. The plan incorporates lots of variety. It's a fairly long program (26 weeks, I think) that's composed of several mesocycles that alternate between strength and hypertrophy training. Each week (microcycle) changes up the exercises, # of sets, # of reps, rest interval, as well as adding some supersets. In addition to the healthy number of stiff legged dead lifts and good mornings already in the program, it calls for leg curls, leg extensions and leg presses. I don't have those machines in my home gym, so I just did stiff legged deadlifts, trap bar deadlifts, good mornings, Bulgarian split squats or hip thrusters instead.
​
May the wind be at your back on the Iron Path.
Brother, I bid you venture deep into the Amazon where exist perfect armaments to cook the Holy Bird.
A knife and deadly hook will be of aid.
Remember to reach 165 degrees of Fahrenheit at bare minimum to purge the agents of Broki from the flesh. His servant salmonella with it's punishing diarrhea and vomiting threatens to steal thy gains. Also, I think it is tastiest at 170°-180°.
375°F with a coating of regular olive oil followed by hearty spicing of oregano and rosemary is how I eat the Bird. Best cooked in a deep glass casserole dish where the chicken covers the whole bottom; it will soak in its own rich juices. 2.5-3lb (three large breasts) cooks in about 75 minutes.
Brother, you may want to look into Trigger Point therapy
I hope it offers some relief.
I personally acquired my own implements from Brodin's Building (Bodybuilding.com) however I note that the Amazonians offer similar implements to my own for only $10 (Amazon) with free shipping if a Prime friend of their tribe. Other than being a Captain of Crush, any recommendations for grip training for endurance?

Bluetooth stereo headset. This is what I've been using for 3+ years. Works like a champ. I also use an iPhone and it is just perfect.
A thousand pardons!! I am continually vexed by mine "smart phone"

On a budget. 11$
Don't get blue tooth. You have to charge them. The lightning port headphones suck! They fall out and don't connect halfway through songs. Not worth it.
Pro tip: put the cord under shirt rather than over it.
I use these:

When I got them from bestbuy a few years back they were $70. so these may not exactly be them but this is a good brand. And it's worth the little extra for better quality

A not disgusting, cocoa powder tasting powder. Use wisely.

Here is thy sacred text
Though it should be mentioned, if thy brother is on the frugal path, one may find a free pdf through the powers of Googling.
This one is my go to protien mix.
The only problem with this brand is that it has gotten quite expensive in the past couple of years.
