i am 15 years old and i want to burn fat and have more energy during my workouts. do u think this would be good for me?
lol.. im intrusted about #7 too!! lolTo give an honest well put together answer we need details, and lots of em!
1. What is your diet like?
2. How many times are you eating a day?
3. What kind of lifting routine are you performing?
4. What kind of cardio do you do?
5. How often do you lift or do cardio a week?
6. Do you sleep a full 8hrs a night?
7. Where do babies come from? No seriously where!! I need to know!
Please give all the information and I"m sure we can give you a semi decent working answer.
Much Love,
Neoborn.
Josh if thats working for you, honestly i suggest you stick with it. At your age, whey and a multi, lots of food, training and sleep is all you need!!....Eat like a madman and grow my friend.!!!!!
best of luck!

best of luckallright, i will probably stick with that. I can probably burn the any of my other fat from cardio. I am really commited and it isn't as hard for me to get in cardio and stuff. I always push my self as hard as i can and go further then i originally planned.
neo where did you get that picture? It makes me laugh every time i see it. :clap2: :hammer:I saw your pics just now somewhere. I would say you shouldn't have much problem burning that fat off at all. I don't think you would even need a supplement. You look like you already have a high metabolism.
1. How long have you been working out at the gym?
2. I would do this 2 warm up sets, 3 working sets with three exercises per bodypart. So do your warm up sets then working set No:1 count fifteen breaths then 2nd set count breaths then third set. The reps should be like 15,15, 10,8,4 or something similar.
3. Be in and out of the gym in 45minutes - 1hr but make sure you fatigue the muscle.
4. Go to failure on the sets, if you hit higher than the reps stated above lift heavier weights.
5. Focus on good form and explode up / out and slowly lower 1,1,3 or 4 ratio ( up in 1, hold one, down in four seconds )
6. Don't lock your joints time under tension is where it's at.
7. Get a spotter / training partner to help you.
8. Reduce saturated fats and add in more healthy omega / fish / flaxseed / olive oils into your diet. Don't cut healthy oils too much / fat too much or you will stop losing fat.
9. I would recommend not doing steady pace running but HIIT cardio. I think you're doing too much cardio and of the non HIIT kind.
So if I was to sum it up:
I'm sure others here can help suggest as well.
- Lift heavy to fatigue 2warm 3 working. Breath 15 breaths
- Make sure you get enough healthy fats - omega, flax, fish,
- HIIT cardio for 20minutes on NON workout days or just after workouts
hey man... if that Avatar pic is accurate... youre in great shape for your age.. I would never recommend anything with such heavy stimulants to someone under 18.lol ya i know what ur saying, but the thing is i am trying to loose some fat i am starting a log and you will see that i am trying to lose some fat and bulk. I already lost some fat.
You've gotten a bunch of good advice and I agree that you are off to a great start. I want to throw out a general precaution, though I think you get it already. Don't take any supplement that messes with your hormones until you're at least 21. The risk does not outweigh the reward. You've got more than enough testosterone into your early 20's to get "buff" and blocking estrogen or cortisol at your age is a very bad move. Even by the time you're 18 and looking to add creatine and other stuff, make sure you know exactly what a supplement is before purchasing it. Search like crazy and if you don't find answers, post the question in this forum.lol i am i know what ur saying, i am not only going for the six pack though, i want to buff up a lot. but i would like a six pack.
Since you're really just starting lifting, I would go for a few months before jumping into Max-OT, only because you need to have a certain amount of overall strenghth first. You could possibly follow one of the Max-OT routines, but just do a little lower weight and higher reps for a couple months to build up your strength. If you signed up for the free tutorial, go ahead and start reading through it to get familiar. If you're lifting regularly, eating a lot of clean food and getting adequate rest, you'll be ready to up the intensity before you know it.Max-OT looks really interesting, what if i start that now?
Me three! The 4-pack just isn't cutting it anymore!Me too.
push yourself further... get a workout buddy who can lift more than you and follow with him at a safe level...allright, i have been doing it for over a month. like running wise yes i am in shape. When i first started i got so sore. Now i just minor soreness so i think my body is getting adjusted to it. I think i am gonna finish reading the max-ot thing and see what it is like and maybe switch over to it. I like going more intense. I'll do what it takes to be ripped lol.
I only sort of agree with this. I posted this in another thread, but will re-iterate it here. 2 kinds of soreness. Micro-tears (good) and lactic acid soreness (not really beneficial). I find lower weight/higher volume training creates more lactic acid, while higher weight/lower volume training (max-ot) mostly avoids lactic acid soreness, but tears down the muscle really well. This is another thing a person picks up on after more experience lifting. You can feel the difference between the two types of soreness and make adjustments.push yourself further... get a workout buddy who can lift more than you and follow with him at a safe level...
if you arent sore.. you arent breaking down muscle. if you arent tearing muscle... you are not growing
