danny boi 0 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 all right mate i might be able to help av just qualified as a fitness instructor, are you a member of a gym? you should be eating plenty of bad food as it were but still mix some healthy stuff in ther and ig nore what people say about fat turning into muscle it doesnt!!! you have to loose the fat before you gain the muscle or afterwards! also protein is what you need not nessiderily suppliments just some decent meat and while where on a hunting website RABBIT this is full of protein!!! and as fresh as it can be especially when your dog pluks it off the field! if you are going to be doing weights(this is the bit everyone hates) use light weights and concentrate on technique slow and controld movements using just the muscle you want not swinging into thigs etc. you want to be doing lo numbers of reps with quite a large wieght once youve got your technique sorted! don't forget to work opposing muscle groups aswell if you concentrate on your chest and don't work you back this can cause bad back problems! so basically get your technique right then hit some heavy wieghts!!!!! you want to be doing like 3 sets of 10 to start with. any probs give me a shout mate!!!! dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

john b 38 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Some 1 told me rabbit dont have much protien in ??any 1 else know, jay I remember some tale from when I was at school that rabbits didn't have enough fat in them. Apparently loads of the wildwest goldrush pioneers 'starved to death' from eating too mush rabbit and nothing else. Don't know how true it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maty j 6 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 no im not a member of a gym, your not going to say to join one now are you its a bit difficult as i dont drive and the closest one is a touch too far away. any exercises that i could do at home easily? weve got a treadmill but i would rather be running out side, and one of those bullworker things with the strings running down the side that you pull out if you get me well atleast i dont have to loose the fat before i build the muscle up! whats the best to eat then apart from chips :sick: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rainmaker 7 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 I'm 6'5" and 19st, how do I put weight on lads? :whistle: Just started boxing again, today. Feckin half-killed myself (and that was taking it easy!). Haven't hardly shifted my arse for ten years (kidney ops etc), time I got fit again I used to fight on the England full contact open styles championships and was a karate black belt, did ABA boxing, jeet kune do and muay thai kickboxing. Now I do McDonalds, Burger King, country shows and even mooching knackers me out (still do it tho ). I bet it's gonna be a year before I'm back in shape (well unless you count round as a shape :ph34r: ). Roll on! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aled 477 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Matty you could do worse than join a local rugby club. The pre season training which starts around 2nd week of July is usually a big help. Its what i did when i left school. Got fitter and bigger surprisingly quickly.
