A bunch of workout/weight loss questions. Please help!?
Alright. I'm going to ask multiple questions so whenanswerwing me I guess just make sure to identify which question you are answering. If you can only answer one than still, go ahead. please contribute. And I would appreciate it if you would stay away from really obvious answers unless the question calls for one.
To start off, here is some information. I'm 15, turn 16 in June. I'm about 5"7' or 5"8' ish. I weigh about 153 pounds. I don't exactly eat the best but I'm trying to change that. And I'm on Adderall so I don't exactly eat much anyway though.
Now I am going to give some more information and ask a question at the same time
1)Do I work out too much? I tend to work out about a couple hours a day... I usually spend most of the time on an eliptical and I will divide that up with like, sit-ups, push-ups, and some other things like planks and supermans.. I do this everyday.. is that too much? will working out this much have any negative effects what-so-ever? I actualls prefer to work out this much. I';d like to work out more but I dont wanna push it. Like I feel bad about not working out and please don't try to change that about me. I just wanna know howe much is too much. am I doing too much?
2)How long will it take for a loss or gain in weight to show on the scale. Like if I eat a bag of chips and weigh myself right after, will I be seeing the effect the chips had? and if I jog on the treadmill for an hour and then come weigh myself, will I be seeing the effect that the treadmill had? Or when I weigh myself will I be seeing the results of what I did a few days ago. how does that work
3)What are some really good vitamins/nutrients that I should be tring to get? I'm mainly trying to lose stomach fat and get a six pack and I wanna know what should i make sure I get in my diet for the best effects. like is there a certain thing that will help me out big time? I want to lsoe weight and get abs. so yeah. what should I try and get in my food?
4)The workout routine that I mentioned in number 1, is that enough to get abs? pretty much just sit ups? I have an ab roller and I try to use that occasionally. but are sit ups alone enough? :-P
5)Like I said, I want to get a six pack and lose stomach fat and these damn love handles. hahaha. Whats the best kind of workout to do for that? What is the best way to lsoe stomach fat and to get a six-pack. Especially that six-pack part. I want to get results quick to. dont try and tell me a method jsut because the method is easy. I'm willing to do the difficult. I really want thi six-pack and I'll do whatever it takes to see results the fastest. but please dont be telling me to go out and buy certain equipment or DVDs or go telling me to buy some shit online please. What is the absoluite best weigh to get a six-pack and about how long do you think it might take? I just wanan get any abs really. anything is a start. even a 2-pack :-P so yeah. best way to get abs and lose stomach fat. and is there something big that I want to avoid doing? like a huge mistake I could make that could hinder my results??
6)I know that you obvously need to lose the fat on top of abs for them to show, but I've heard people say that you should lose the stomach fatr then take care of the abs. is that true? Should I get rid of the fat, then work on the abs? or can I work on both on the same time. that way once the fat is gone the abs might already be there. or is that even possible? I have a profound misunderstanding for the human body so sorry haha.
7)What do you think is the biggest I could be but still have abs show up, preferably without flexing? my goal of getting a six-pack, is to have that six-pack be there at all times. I dont wanna have to flex for it to show because then I will be like, trying to show off or something :-P Like what is the largest waist measurement/weight/hip size or whatever that I could have a six-pack still show without flexing?
8)I don't think I get nearly enough protein. What is a good way to get more protein in my diet. apparantly like fish and red meat or whatever is a good way but like is there and supplement or anything? any way I can just literally add protein to other things? and if not then what IS the best way to get more in my diet. Could I just eat more in order to get enough protein? like id take in lots of calories/fat but then I could maybe just workout extra to burn that off? Idk. that doesnt sound to healthy
Thank you so much in advanced for reading this and for any help you may give me. as you can probably tell, I really want this six-pack. im willind to do whatever it takes. I trust you guys here and Itrust that you can really help me :)
