Fitness Regime for a fatty Anonymous
Obviously you've hear dit all before, but a fatty (me) needs some tips for a beginners workout. No equipment as such (except an exercise cycle and a wii-fit :), so anything like number of pushup reps etc. would be great.

Help me out so I can see my kids graduate college!

So diet is one - check! Any particular exercise regimes though?

Thanks for that - it's quite hard keeping up motivation but diet is a failing of mine (obviously). I'll keep the portions low and do some light cycling on my cycle.

well, the first thing you should really do is try and work out what you're going to do. what you should start out doing will depend greatly on how much of a fatty you are, and what you want to do.
going by statistical probability; i'm going to assume you're an obese 18-30 year old male, with no current serious health complications, but the strong possibility of them forming later in life if you don't change you habits.
in that case i'd recommend the first thing you should do is build your basic cardiovascular fitness-don't jump to HIIT or weight training before your heart and lungs can take a basic amount of exertion.
start out with a set (or minimum) amount of cardio 6 days a week. go out now and try and see how far you can run before you collapse panting (disregard that if you have trouble getting out of a chair-replace 'run' with 'walk'). then take that time/distance, double it, and force yourself to run that every day, even if it means staggering over the finish line. try not to be too disheartened by how unfit you are; i'm in great shape these days, but when i started out i could barely run 10 mins. just find something you can do, ideally for about 10-30 mins a day, and work on that. when that starts to be acheivable, increase the distance. after that, you'll either have given up, or you'll be coming back to us with more specific questions once you start to learn a bit about your body.
all i can say is good luck, but more importantly BE A MAN. this shit aint easy, even from the start, and i you want to get anywhere with this-or see your kids graduate, you're going to have to be prepared to be miserable every day when you squeeze into your running gear and look at the pissy raining road ahead of you. that is until that day when you finnally run that 3 mile, or loose those first 5 pounds.
until that day, be strong.

in b4 SQUATZ. inappropriate advice is innappropriate.

not hating dude. used to be one. and whilst everyone's entitled to be the way they are (and I MEAN that), if you genuinely want to make a difference, you're going to have to be harsh on yourself, and not make excuses/look the other way.
if we're going to talk about chicks/anime/videogames whatever you're a guy. If we're going to talk about health and fitness, you're a fat guy. Its not an insult. it's an assesment of you're health.
be happy that you can at least change that.

that's ok. just make sure that 'light' still means 'difficult'. you want to push yourself-it doesn't matter what your limits are, but push them.
