What should i do to tone my body as i lose weight? (weight & measurements included)?

Question

Well, I have gained 110 pounds during 5 years. I 'm 5'10 weighing in at about 240. My measurements are 47-39-49. I basically want to come down to 130 pounds. That was my weight before i gained the 110 pounds. I just want to be healthy and slim again! I burn 500 calories everyday on the treadmill and I eat healthy. My diet consists of vegetables, fruits, low calorie foods and more fiber etc.. Food that is easily digested and i drink more water now. I drink about a gallon a day. I basically want to know what kind of exercises will keep my legs, arms, stomach & butt toned? I don't want flabby or lose skin. I want a great body like the one i know i had!!!!

Hey

I found some great fat burning tips from the site http://fitness4u.sitesled.com .  There are tips form the top fitness trainers.  There are also some good downloadable free ebooks.  The truth about abs and your six pack quest are also good programs that friends of mine used.  They really give you what you need to lose the fat without losing muscle.

Good luck, Don't give up.

Hmmm. It really sounds like you're on the right track!  How long have you been doing the treadmill and the healthy eating?  If you're slowly losing weight, you're doing the right thing.  If you're stuck, a doc and/or a nutritionist should be consulted to make sure there aren't any other factors in play.  You could have a thyroid issue, eat right and exercise, and just continue to gain.

There are a thousand and one exercise programs online, in magazines, on DVDs . . . pick one that your doc oks and knock yourself out!  I find that my stomach is a lost cause, but skating tones my butt and inner/outter thighs, which is a problem for most women.  Waitressing and hockey goaltending helped with the butt and legs because of all the squatting, which is a super effective exercise you can do at home with no equipment--just make sure your knees don't extend past your toes!  Dumbbells are the best thing for arms.  Do curls and extensions.  If you have access to a gym, one of the easiest things you can do is to just travel around to the different machines and read the labels to see how to do the exercise.  Do it on the heaviest weight setting that feels right (do NOT overdo it--an injury will set you back many  months in terms of fitness!) and aim for 2x 10 reps for each exercise to start, working up to three sets of 15 reps for each, slowly adding weight as it becomes easier for you.

Have fun and stay fit!  You really seem motivated, and I'm impressed with your changes thus far.  500 calories a day in exercise is really an accomplishment!

i think your diet and cardio routines are good enough...loose skin is basically leftover fat...you need to incorporate lots of calisthenic workouts like yoga,pilates,chi gong and fitball core next to your cardio routines to minimize loose skin from occuring.Remember that calistenic workouts make you vulnerable to gaining a pound or 2 of muscle from time to time but dont fear!its ok to have more muscle(having more muscle doesnt make you unhealthy but some find it too gross looking if its excessive,thats all,so cheer up!),having more fat is what thats unhealthy...

Answer 7

Do 50 situps before you go to bed 'every' night, the stomach requires a lot of attention when your building it into shape so it has to be done daily unlike some of the other muscle groups. It will only take 5 mins max just don't forget =) (just my suggestion)

Answer 8

Try jogging and working out with small dumbbells
