To lose weight go longer and slower - 45 minutes at a steady pace 3 times a week That was for the rowing machine, not your sex life 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Duncan 802 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Do some weights too. A bigger engine burns more at rest (ie tickover). The bigger your muscles are, the more they burn during exertion as well as at rest. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gitano 17 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I used to work at a snooty university's sports department (one of the two who compete in some boat race shite) and I trained with the rowing team for a bit. Very impressive athletes but I've gotta say, rowing on a machine is boring as f**k and I doubt many folk would keep it going for more than a week or so (then it gets passed onto someone else who'll use it a couple of times before putting it away in the garage or under the bed) . You'd be better off finding something you enjoy mate-and get the tucker and booze sorted out Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marvin 193 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Diet comes into the equation too it can have a big bearing on the weight you lose, just by the timings of your meals, do you have a large breakfast, then eat regularly till evening ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OldNog 432 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 ditch the rower and run. Do it where there are people and if you have any pride you would rather run until you spew instead of stop infront of people haha 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marvin 193 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 no i dont have a large breakie, usually a sandwich, i dont eat fry ups try 4 poached eggs on wholemeal toast with a bowl of cornflakes, then 3 hrs later a small snack, 3hrs again lunch 3hrs again another snack, 3hrs again evening meal, then 3hrs again a youghurt or bit of fruit. seems a shit load to eat and it will feel like it at first but it will throw your metabolism into overdrive especially with exercise, oh and step up your rowing to cover 20 min sessions but intervals where you work your nuts off then slow down in peaks and troughs.
