Slimming plans

smudgey SG

How about Detoxing??? how is it done? how often? is it like taking pills to detox? any to recommand?

And have anyone here used pills to 1) reduce fat intake in food, 2) enhance metabolism so as to get maximium out of ur workout???

or creams that claim to help target areas to burn fat off???

are there any good ones that u can recommand???

how about controlled throwing up when one has a little too much to eat???

How much Cardio exercise must one do beforemoving on to targeted areas like sit-ups???

What kind of Cardio should one do if exercising at home? is skipping sufficient as cardio?

pqr SG

this is definately a NO NO and not a good way to loose weight.
Pls DO NOT ever used this method.

The consequence of this can be VERY VERY bad...you may need lots of $$$ to treat this condition.

usual stuff, eat healthy, exercise more, get enough sleep. May seem cliche, but it works

Go for runs, swims etc. Wouldnt have immediate results, but it works. And is also better for the long run. Helps you cultivate a healthy lifestyle, better than taking all the pills and stuff...

I only can answer these two above....

(1) You can start cardio and sit-ups and other excercise at the same time.

(2) It is impossible to answer "how much is enough" unless I know you personally....and if anyone can answer this specifically, please don't believe them. I need to know your lifestyle, how much you can take, how you feel during the exercise, etc. In other words, for the first time, I need to run with you....and gauge from there.

(3) Skipping is cardio, but running is better. Better still, combine the two. No single exercise is enough....thats why there are so many types of exercises invented - they all complement each other. The problem with skipping is that many people get discouraged.....and for beginners, there is really not much cardio because they spend most of the time trying to start the rope up again (after it gets caught between their legs).

The idea of slimming (for most of us anyway) is to appear more attractive to others, especially the opposite sex. I wouldn't consider excusing yourself to vomit (and smelling of puke thereafter) attractive at all.
