hello all, im 5'10" 200lbs 21 years old male, i got 20% body fat. I want to lose weight, so i plan on waking up at 8am everyday, and alternating between the treadmill and elliptical machine at my local gym 3 times a week. do you think this is a good plan to lose weight?

What should i eat/drink in the morning before hitting the machines?

What should i eat/drink after the exercise?

I have Muscle Milk protein shake, when should i drink that?

I think i have the other times of the day figured out as far as what to eat. i will be eating salads and fish such as Mahi Mahi, Salmon, and other lean meats such as chicken breasts, and steaks.

thanks all!
 
I often post this... so here it is for you. Of course the treadmill/elliptical 3 times per week is good. It's better than nothing. I'd like to see some weights in there though :p

Anyway, here are the 5 tips to fat loss....

1) Eat 5-6 small meals throughout the day. Each meal should be 2-3 hours apart. Each meal should contain one protein and one carb. The first meal should be eaten within an hour after waking.


2) Drink a cup of water at each meal.


3) Rest properly. This means taking at least 48 hours between strength training the same muscles, and it also means getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep per night. Lastly, it means taking 1-2 days off from exercising per week.


4) Cardio. This should be done at different intensity levels and different session lengths. Consider doing a low intensity/long session, a high intensity/short session and a few medium intensity/medium length sessions.


5) Strength Training. Strength train each muscle 1-3 times per week. You should lift a proper weight and perform the proper amount of sets/reps for your strength training method. If you need more guidance or exercise ideas you can head over


All of the above things combined will result in fat loss.
 
Thank you for your reply Lynn.
