I know, I'm beginning to sound like a broken record here, but for me the emphasis or the place I like to tweak first would be your engine. My interest would be to make it a petrol guzzler by upping its revs.I currently workout 3 times per week, doing full body over 2 workouts. I do some brisk walking (30-40 minutes) 3-5 times per week.
Hello there Bazza,While I agree with you fadi that exercise will definitely help, i feel diet is way more important than exercise when losing weight.
Sure I understand. Maybe having been a former elite athlete myself, my expectation of other "normal" people may be a bit too high. But I'm happy with that and I find that I can motivate someone just enough if not to turn them into an elite athlete, to at least transform them from being a 4 cylinder machine to a roaring V8 beast. Sure, they won't turn into the supercar supercharged V8 that we see at Bathurst, but they would at least go up few cylinders which would enable them to chew through their love handles like a hot knife cutting through butter.Sure elite athletes will burn heaps of calories from training many hours a day but how many regular people have the time or motivation to do that.
Don't stress over 'eating clean', just ensure you consume your required calorie intake while meeting your minimum protein and fat requirements (and micronutrient requirements) and then make up the rest of your calories from what ever you like!Thanks everyone for your valued input. I think I'll adopt a bit of both - increase cardio (I like long distance power walking). Weather is warming so I can start walking home from the gym (around 4K) again, and be a clean eater.
