how does 'all of the above' sound
honestly, in terms of what i want in order, 1 is lower fat % bc i'm a chubmonster.
after that, i'd love to improve endurance and performance. in the past, that is a nice side effect from dropping some poundage
least of my concerns is building muscle, but that actually seems to be what is going on right now..probably bc of the exercises i've been doing. and probably bc my muscle size is pretty small to start with, well, upper bodywise.
but let's start with what to eat if you want to lose fat but still make it through a fairly intense workout (by my standards, anyway), they estimate about 1200-1500 calories burned for an hour workout. it is basically multiple reps with a bar and about 20-30 lbs of weight on the bar. starts with squats, dead row, lunges, bicep curls, tricep work, pushups, shoulder work, and ab work. you basically do 2-3 minutes of reps with each, varying speeds. Doesn't sound like much, but it's a nice overall workout. Basically, about 2/3-3/4 the way through, i get shaky and it starts to affect my form.
Thanks so much for the help
