Hey all, let me give you a breakdown of what i have done the past year.
Last August or so roughly 10 months, i deceided i wanted to lose some weight and get into shape. I am 6'1 and was then 290 pounds. Obviously you see why i wanted to lose some weight. So over the course i started lifting weights/doing cardio roughly 2-4 times a week without being SUPER strict about it...just making sure i get a good sweat going and try to make myself sore the next day so i know it worked. Cut all the bull**** out of my diet, pop/snacks/fast food...and ate mostly chick/vegetables/meats/eggs etc...
So here i am today at around 215 dropped roughly 75 lbs, all of which was lost not useing ANY supplements or takeing anything whatsoever just exercise and diet. I think i want to either stay around 210-215ish but i would like to be cut/built/ripped whatever you want to call it at that weight. Loseing the extra weight is not the problem, its just that i do not know what my workout routine/diet should be like now that i am at my current weight and want to tighten my body up. I still have some love handles and a gut, just drastically smaller then from when i started.
My work hours are 10:30-7 mon-fri. Diet is currently bowl of cereal before work with skim milk, EXTREMELY light lunch as in, one of those healthy choice bowl of soups that are all under 200 calories at around 3pm. Get home at 7 and then on the days i work out i will work out right when i get home without eating anything since my tiny lunch at 3 (this might be a bad idea on an empty stomach???), and make chicken and vegetables/salad for dinner, fish and rice....basically something very low calorie and overall healthy with trying to get in some vegetables and meat. Weekends i eat kind of whatever i want,i see those as my off days to my rough week of under 1-1.5k calories per day.
What i have to work with equipment wise is a benchpress with the appropriate weights, and free hand weights rangeing from 5-50 pounds. So now that i am at my target weight more or less, what should i make my diet and what sort of exercises should i be doing to turn my 215 of non in shapeness, to being a fit/muscular and rather cut 215. My main goal is to turn my stomach/chest into something cut and or defined (being able to see my abs would be the ultimate goal) as opposed to the small gut and little bit of love handles i currently have.
Although i have lost the weight having not used any products and or supplements, i am open minded to useing some if theres any you guys might suggest would best suit what i am going for here.
Any feedback is very appretiated on diet/exercise routines/anything i need to change, and thanks for taking the time to read this if you did guys !
