WORK IT
 
Lately I've been trying to get the perfect summer body right?
But tbh Im only doing sit-ups and push-ups and some handstands but Im scared it doesnt really has any effect on my belly so I've been wondering :

1. Do you work out?/ How often?
2. If yes what exercises do you practice?
3. And did it have any effects on your physical state yet?

(Im too young to visit a gym yet and hell nah im not gonna get a fake ID like my classmates)


My first language isnt english okay please
lmao

all useless, you need to learn how to count your calories

edit: i mean its useless to try to work out if you don't count your calories because you won't get far

Asaiki 05-18-2015 01:36 PM

1. Do you work out?/ How often? & 2/ If yes what excercises do you practice?
I do 20 push ups, 20 crunches, and I lifts some weighs i find in my room for 5 minutes. I workout every week for 3 days.
3. And did it have any effects on your physical state yet?
I lost some weight, but I still have a small belly, I feel a bit better than before, I don't get sick as much as I used to do, and I still eat plenty, cause I'm a foodaholic.

If you're too young to visit the gym you probably are too young to have a perfect summer body. /o

Oh well, I work out 3-4 times a week and go have soccer-training five times a week. When working out, I do err'thing except stomach and legs because of soccer. Effects are, you feel way more healthy and your body changes a lot. I feel more robust when playing soccer due to working out aswell, doesn't differ much I believe so there isn't much to tell once someone gives a pretty long reply.

It's not only about exercising. You also have to watch what you eat. It's not how often you eat, but rather what you eat that makes the biggest difference. Make better choices in your diet.

Also exercising and staying fit is all about commitment so you have to be mentally ready to take the challenge and achieve your goals. I don't know of an actual workout routine for a 15-year old but you can:

• Cardio:
- Jogging (30 min/everyday)
- Jump rope (30-60 seconds gradually increase per week)
• Strength Training:
- 3 times a week with light weights (you can do 5 sets of 30 reps)
- Push-ups (5 sets of 10-15)
- Squats (5 sets of 10-15)
- Plank (30 seconds)

Yea, of course it is. Just watch out, there's a reason you're not allowed to visit the gym until a specific age. Even though it doesn't apply that much to girls as it does to boys (since they don't work out the same ways), you should inform yourself about what to do, and how to do excersises, or however it is spelt.

Dark Ice Cream 05-18-2015 02:48 PM

Most body shape ups are derived from eating, like a portion of it comes from others, exercise, sleep etc.

(Sorry if my english is bad, I don't know the weight concerned therms..)

Hello sir,
Here are my answers to your post:

1. Do you work out?/ How often?
Yes, I work out 3 times a week because I'm very busy with school.

2. If yes what exercises do you practice? And did it have any effects on your physical state yet?

I practice in a weight room. It have a lots of "machines" and here's what I practice every times:

Lower Body/Back:
-Leg Press (Glutes, hamstrings and the calves)
-Leg Extension Machine (Quadriceps)
-Leg Curl (Hamstrings)
-Back Extension on Roman Chair (Glutes)

Yes, I've had a lots of changement for the Lower Body. My legs are now more muscular than before and we can the shape of the muscles when I contract a little. Also the back is starting to shows some shapes.

Upper Body/Back:
-Bench Press (Very good for pectorals)
-Pek Deck Machine (Also for pectorals)
-Pulldown Machine (Biceps and forearms)
-Upright row (Trapezius, upper back, forearms, triceps and biceps)
-Double Pushdown (Triceps)
-Crunch with a machine (Abdominals)
-Preacher Curl (Biceps)

So for this part, yes I've seen a lot of changements. First of all, the biceps is the first muscle that grows when you start off work out. It's a light muscle, so it grows faster. Also when I started I didn't have abdominals, and know I have them (6packs). Trapezius and Back are showing some results also as the triceps (more difficult). Finally, my pectorals grown up and are now more consistant and the shape is way more visible.
But if you'll start, you will first have to get strenght, since it's the most important to see results. You atlas need 2-3months to get the "basic strength" and then you will see results. I had to wait one year to see the results I wanted, but trust me, one year is nothing.
I almost forgot this: You have to take the weight that match to your current strength. If you force too much, you will have problems. If you need any more advices, just PM me, I'll advise you. :)

Cardio (such as running) has always been one of the best weight loss exercises. Runners have great abs. If you plan to invest in running, get good shoes and compression shorts.

But diet definitely has a big part too. Take out all the soda, replace with water and tea (actual tea, not brisk). Instead of chips, do baby carrots with a small dip of ranch (not too much or else you're eating fat and not veggies). Theres plenty of things you can do. Learning to cook is really fun and awesome for eating healthier as well. BudgetBytes has some great, healthy, cheap recipes; her dishes appeal to even picky eaters.

MrSimons 05-19-2015 08:16 PM

I'm a guy so we probably don't have the same idea of a neat body.

1. Do you work out?/ How often?
I lift weights either 3/4 days a week, and at work I move furniture so I get a lot of strength training there.
2. If yes what exercises do you practice?
Chest/Bicep Day: Benchpress, Preacher Curls, Incline/Decline Bench, Barbell Curls, Chinups
Tricep/Back/Shoulders: Upright Rows, Skull crushers, Pull ups, Pull downs, Barbell Shrugs, OHP
Leg Day: Squat, Leg Press, Leg Curls, Calf Raises, Walking Lunges

Then sometimes when I am in the mood or will have my schedule thrown off by something I will just do a bodyweight day that consists of..
Weighted Pushups, Pullups, Chinups, and then a few various calisthenics that I dont remember names for.

3. And did it have any effects on your physical state yet?

I have gained about 20 lbs since I started (huge part of weight gains is diet), and my bench press max has gone up by 100 lb.


If you are trying to remove belly fat btw, dont bother with crunches because
1. they dont work
2. there is no way to target fat, you are gonna have to do cardio and lose weight in general.

r/bodyweightfitness if you don't have access to weights/the gym

Start with the basic routine and stop looking at yourself, the results will come just be patient.

Learn to count your calories. In it's simplest form body weight is determined by calories in vs calories out, the more you exercise the more you're 'allowed' to eat. To help me count I use MyFitnessPal, an app that makes it so much easier.

^^ this is great, it may seem menacing to count all your macros for your day, but MFP has a database of pretty much every food ever. Eat a big mac? type in big mac and it will enter all the nutrition facts for you and add it all up.

Admiral 05-19-2015 09:30 PM

^ Yeah exactly, and it provides you with an x goal amount of calories you can eat, say you wanna lose 1/2lbs a week and you're idk 5'5 110lbs, it might say aim for 1600 calories a day (just a guess, but you get the idea of it)

BEH0LD iTz SAM 05-20-2015 01:23 PM

As you are a girl looking for a summer body, you probably aren't looking for upper body strength so just do ab work outs. The best ab workouts in my opinion are leg raises and planking. Both can easily be done at home, just use your bed to hold onto when you are doing leg raises. Don't be discouraged if you have difficulty, it will get easier the more you do it.

Do 20 leg raises, rest for 15 secs, do 40 bicycles where you are on your back doing the bicycle motion (20 on each leg). Rest for another 15 secs. Plank for 30 secs, rest 20 secs, then do 20 situps. Take your time with them, do them properly or else nothing will happen. Take a 5min break and then repeat. If you wake up the next day and your stomach feels tight/sore then you were doing everything right.

And yea I forgot to say at the start but this is assuming abs are part of your "summer body" and you are already fairly slim just with abit of excess fat around your belly. If not then definitely do cardo with running/diets the others have suggested to lose some body fat and then use ab workouts to take it further.

Though, running through the city or at the gym isn't good for your waists, better run on forest floor most of the time.
