Yeah I lost 30 a few years ago with only the treadmill and watching what I ate. Cutting out sugars, no drinks at all(haven't had a soda in years and it feels great!) Drink lots of water.

Took a few months but yeah...it works.

get an elliptical machine that works ur whole body....and since u a guy, as long as u cut out pop and replace junk food with fruits and low calorie snacks you will lose that weight in no time. My 300 lb cousin lost 60 lbs in 4 months just working out on a elliptical machine and replaced pop with water.

I lost 40 pounds running. If you get at least an hour three times a week you will lose the weight. Especially if you change your diet.

Cut out sweets, pasteries, and sugary drinks and run at least 3-5 miles 4-6 times a week. I've always done cardio but weight wise I got stuck at a certain point and no matter how much I worked out I wasn't getting below that point. I cut out the sweets and I started losing weight again.

wouldnt they be worn and torn and all that shyt?

not at all.....the one I bought was almost new...the woman had just recently lost her job and was moving back in with her mom in Seattle and she needed the money for whatever reasons. Look like she just took it out of the box, still had the warranty, dvds. and manuals with it. I hit a sweet lick :shaq:

For example here is one for $50

I'm too cheap to pay for a gym also. I run outside 12 months a year given the weather is at least 25 degrees. since it was mild this winter, I didn't miss really any days of running even in the winter.

like MM$ said, if u have a calorie deficiency you will lose weight. I dont even lift weights anymore.

fick a treadmill run outside. unless you live in a dangerous neighborhood

I run outside in any neighborhood. in any weather other than rain. I run outside in good neighborhoods or bad. sometimes I run in the suburbs out by my job. other times I run in the park by crib. or I hit the lakefton. as long as I have my workout clothes and shoes, I'll stop and run in places. I like running in different places cuz u get to see different shyt. treadmill running is boring as hell too.

Cardio is the main means of weight loss and being fit


but the treadmill can not compete with the ellipitical (it has to be a real ellipitical, not them cheap ass pieces of shyt you buy at Sears) them shyts are poorly made and burn less that half the calories the real ones do

to burn the same amount of calories on a treadmill in an hour that you burn on an ellipitical you have to have the treadmill on the highest height and a very quick paced walk or jog(height at level 20, speed at 3.8 or higher)

I burn inbetween 1300 and 1600 calories an hour on the ellipitical- compared to 900-1100 on the treadmill

Plus, accidents occur on the treadmill more than any other piece of equipment in the gym


I say run outside and do the ellipitical- that is the best method


and run stairs or the stairmaster machine to build leg muscle

I do cardio everyday for atleast 1hr 30 mins

some days 2-3hrs

and i feel fukking great
