Fly Fatboy Fly - In 2K19

Postby JaoSming on Thu Oct 25, 2012 12:47 pm

Wait, there was a first JaoSming saga?
My Wii Fit failure


Background

I'm 6'6" but got up to 325 over the summer, blame the baby, but since then I've been consistently losing weight. Well, I've reached my plateau...so why not get motivated by all of you supportive bastards again!

The weekly community open gym is going on again, so each week I am going to try a dunk attempt, upload it for lulzhopefully$$$$, and have something to show for progress.


Try to enjoy

Good luck. I'm 6'2" & have gone from about 260lbs a year ago to my current weight of less than 230lbs. All I've done is running the dogs a mile a day each morning. Fitter for bball too now, which is always good.

I'm sort of locked in at 227-228lbs & have plateaued a bit, but aiming to drop another 10 pounds.

I'm 5'7" and weighing in at 137 pounds.I remember being a fat guy.My max weight was 250.One year later I was at a comfortable 160.This was about 12 or 13 years ago when I was 18 or 19 years old.How did I do it? Diabetes was to blame.That and I use to have a bad cocaine problem.So I guess you can technically say I cheated.Haha.But besides that,I hope you do well man.I am currently trying to gain weight.So yeah that's it.

Depends on your weight. I went from 230lbs to 205lbs (I'm 6'2") but had big knee and ankle problems when I first started running (at 230lbs). Switched to some workout DVD's my wife bought some time ago and changed my diet to nearly zero carbohydrates. Lost 10lbs over the first week and started with cycling again which was way better for my legs. I'll be out running again in spring but try to ride my bicycle as much as weather allows it.

I hate anything cardio related, I just lift weights 6 days a week. It hurts more but means I get to stay in the one spot

Maybe you should avoid lifting weights so often. Doing it every other day might be more beneficial because of muscle recovery time. If you don't like cardio training, you could substitute it with higher intensity exercises.

First, I am surprised at all the support I'm getting with this, here and the YouTube comments.....I thought it was going to be a funny little thing like what Wii Fit ended up being, but wow. So thank you

I'm sort of locked in at 227-228lbs & have plateaued a bit, but aiming to drop another 10 pounds.

The 25 I've lost has been nearly 100% diet change, since I still can't do much with the baby.....more like I'm too tired to do more. The goal is 250lbs, but I don't plan to be down to that weight for another year. According to BMI I want to be in the 220 range....but that was my weight in college/high school and you could see my bones.

Inspiring :lol: but either way, weight just sucks

Paternity tests have been ran throughout my life....I assure you, not Asian.
....those sleeves though, lol. I should just goto the drug store and get some elbows sleeves or something less.....Dwight, but its just too funny looking with the neon yellow shoes to not.

Thank you very much, I'd like to thank the 30 year old half broken and very out of tune Piano we have.

SteveHTOWN wrote: but had big knee and ankle problems when I first started running

My knees have always been my downfall (notice the straps). Running on a court never really left me with issues, but concrete hurts under my knee cap and dirt/grass is prime ankle issues. I'd say I'm falling apart, but I've dealt with these injuries throughout high school and college....so I'm just broken.

J@3 wrote:I hate anything cardio related, I just lift weights 6 days a week

....memories of "lifting cardio". Short breaks, low weight, and lots of reps. Friggin hate cardio...

...which is my main option. We got a stationary bike and got it setup in the living room....it just feels like a waste of time to pedal in place there for a half hour watching TV.

Alternating routine, muscle sets, or intensity each day.
Like work the upper body for the first day, lower body for the second day, then back to upper fo the third day, and so on.
Same shite as resting a day.

True. Forgot to mention that myself. For me, it's more of a personal preference to skip every other day. I feel better that way and it's less time consuming as well.

Re knee issues that were mentioned, I've had my share with shin splints (got better footwear to help with that), tendinitis caused my imbalance of hamstring & quadricep muscle strength. That's why my running has never ramped up beyond a mile a day. I feel like my body breaks down a little.

Yeah, don't pay any attention to BMI, since it looks like you've got a bit of bone mass like me. 245-250lbs would probably be good weight for you.

I lost my first 10 pounds purely on diet (& gastro bug), the remainder being lost since February with the next 10 pounds on exercise & diet & last 10 pounds on exercise alone (since my diet hasn't been as good since 2nd baby born with lots of parties, weddings, functions, some booze etc).

I'm 31 now so wanted to get myself in better shape before I let it go too long.

Truth be told, I only started running because with the young kids, dogs still need a walk. Walking them is painful since they're hound dogs so running is more convenient. I now have another running partner, pushing my daughter in a jogging stroller, for extra workout :P But yeah, with 2 young kids I got no time, so 6am jogs for 15 minutes before work is all I have time for (other than Sunday evening bball).

My program is fine, it's designed so that each area is separated by as many days as I can separate them. I'm not on some starting strength shit lol

That's true, it can be hell on your knees. Mine are holding up so far, I run 5 km every day, but I'm thinking I'll have to pull back a bit in a few years.
