Tolerance for what? Pain? Kinda but it can be difficult to hit yourself hard enough to inflict alot of pain due to self preservation in mind, take up Boxing if you want to build up a tolerance for it and condition yourself to muscle strain and enduranceThaReaper wrote:

I would join boxing if we had it at our school, too bad we don't though.XanKrieger wrote:

Well, I was reading that thread and it said to eat healthy. No McDonalds, soda, fat foods like chips and twinkies and stuff like that. Eat meat like fish and things of that sort. Drink a lot of water and orange juice.Pubic wrote:
Good thread! +1 to the OP!
Since we've got a whole fitness thing going here, has anybody got any good dietry tips for people wanting to get into shape?

I had a quick look around there. Read something about jogging, where you alternate between short bursts of jogging then sprinting. Did that for about half an hour with my dad. Lol, he went for a walk and I would sprint away from him then jog back. Walk a few minutes and repeat. I shall be doing it 3-4 times a week and the rest of the time normal jogging.CoronadoSEAL wrote:

On the jogging/ running side of things what do you guys reccommend doing it? In the morning when I first get up (and it would be early, cause it gets hot quickly) or in the evening when it's cool enough?
Lol @ guys who say about: Don't eat mcDonalds. Only Fish - Raw Eggs and water.naightknifar wrote:
Running - Cardiovascular is brilliant. Just gets overall fitness good instead of muscle mass.
10 Minute jogs. Not sprinting.
If you want to work on running fitness (after you've jogged for months) do Fartlek training:
Sprint 200m
Jog 1KM
Walk 150m (rest)
Spring 200m
Jog 1KM ... etc.
Change intensity for Overload on fitness. (correct term, not off my head )

Leg lifts.Noobeater wrote:
This has given me some good ideas, I normally just do 30 press ups and 60 sit ups a day (as i'm lazy) but i might start those leg ones now as well.
As replied by another: boxing is your best effort for this.ThaReaper wrote:

Some very bad advice. You're not going to go on a calorie deficit by eating McDonalds sandwiches or fries, it's not going to happen. Drop pop and other sugary juices out of your diet and hop on the water train. In addition to feeling generally healthier by eliminating unnecessary sugars in your diet, you will also be able to drop pounds faster because you don't have the sugars.naightknifar wrote:

Eat whatever you want, just not too much of one thing. The best diet is a balanced diet.
You have 80% protein for the repair and build up of muscles, you're going to be fucking ill.
Just eat how you think you should, not too much of one thing. Of course salad is the healthiest option, I hate the stuff.

And all you need is a small airplane hangar to exorcise in.
It really isolates your body.
At least that's what Chucky keeps saying in the commercial...
You should've seen the ad back in the nineties. It was hilarious.Ajax_the_Great1 wrote:

Some people don't have their license yet. I'm getting it next year, then I might join a gym.Shaguart wrote:
Get a gym membership.
Seriously there is just so much more you can do at a gym than buying a set of dumbells.
But if you are just looking to get fit and not "big" then i would reccomend lots of cardio, so go out for jogs. Pushups are good, crunches, dips (you can put your wrists on one end of a counter top, then your feet on the other.)
Other than that the most important thing is diet. Lots of protein will get you leaner, and lots of greens are good to. Try and cut the fat and cards as much as you can.
Theres my tips
(I work out like 5 times a week, so i do have an idea of what i am talking about)
EDIT: lol try and cut the cards... i mean CARBS

Yea, like looking at women..lol. Not all of us have time to waste driving to the gym. I can hit all the muscles I want and get the results I desire at home with dumbbells and a good bench. Most people just don't know all the available exercises. A monthly membership fee isn't required to get what you want (Unless you are looking to compete). Of course some people have to get out and in a gym to motivate themselves also. Convenience works better for me. It took me about ten years of working out at a gym to realize this..Shaguart wrote:
