Resolution: Lose Weight And Get In Shape!

Get in Shape! A great new years resolution.

People spend hundreds of millions of dollars buying gym memberships and fitness equipment this time of year in preparation for their new years resolutions but you dont have to. Getting in shape doesnt require money, just knowledge and dedication and this video will put you on the road to fitness.

In this video I will show you how to achieve your new years resolution of losing weight and getting stronger with a simple 30 minute home workout. This video assumes that you have no experience with fitness or weightlifting so dont worry, we are not going to use any intimidating equipment. You will feel better and have more energy after your very first workout!

OK, now for our workout, there are only three exercises - crunches for abs, pushups for chest, shoulders and triceps, and pullups for lats and biceps. And dont worry, if you cant do a single pushup or pullup I will show you how you can get started and build up your strength. This workout is for everyone, no matter how out of shape you are. You probably did these three exercises back in PE as a kid, but I'm going to show you how to do them correctly so you dont get injured.

On Monday/Wednesday/Friday do 15 minutes of cardio and this 15 minute workout. On the other four days of the week, do 30 minutes of cardio.

Here are some in-depth videos if you want more information on any of the following subjects: Pushups:

Nutrition is key to losing weight and getting 6-pack abs! I cover nutrition on my website, if thats not detailed enough for you I have reviewed and recommended some excellent books:

Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn't have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.

100 of 1,000,000,00? dollars? lol. I love your videos!!!! You sounded like you stumbled upon some words

[scooby1961]

I always stumble on my words, I'm an engineer, I dont talk or write well :)

Do you have any alternatives if you dont have a pull up bar?

[scooby1961]

Any playgrounds nearby, how about schools? You can always find a place to do pullups there. How about a basement with pipes? A tree?

FUCKING LOVE THE SCOOBY

Hey Scooby, i saw your video about the protein shake but i have no clue on what to do with those powders. When are you supposed to drink it? Before the workout, after the workout, at different times, at the same time, before going to bed? I dunno, im hoping to read one of your great advice about it, thank you.

My girlfriend wanted me to ask the following question: Can girls follow Scoobys guidelines for male bodybuilding? Will they gain muscle, or are they far more limited in terms of muscle gain?

[PitchBlackForecast]

Or, you can divide your workout to be cardio in the morning, weights in evening, or viceversa.

[PitchBlackForecast]

for pullups and pushups, get the "iron gym". it is really cheap and handy as for cardio, it doe'snt matter when you do your cardio, just DONT work out within 3 hours of bedtime, because that may give you trouble sleeping. I've experienced it many times. Also, you can switch from cardio to weights whenever, just don't make it so you're on weights, then a bit of cardio, then a bit of weights then a bit of cardio again. I would reccomend do weights then cardio and you're done.

Can chicken be used in place of salmon sometimes?

That's pretty much all my email now (with slight edits).

I just thought of something else, how about noodles? Can they be fit in as a meal?

And to replace refried beans, will I just use kidney beans or something? Or can anyone suggest something better for it (Don't different beans have different properties?)? :)

[BarrytheSuperScot]

Just a couple more bits.

The low fat TV dinner to be used, should it have meat (as well as lots of vegetables) in it for protein?

And I could eat the chilli heat up as a meal too, right?

I want to say a big thanks for the videos, you have really inspired me to get back into working out and getting fit again so I'm going to start right back at beginner and work my way back to fitness and improve myself. Your videos are really informative and funny, I look forward to your future videos.

[BarrytheSuperScot]

Or should I workout later in the day nearer dinner (or the protein shake)? Could I still do my morning jog? (I think I'll be only really able to do the workout at morning or evening) Also, how long should I do this regime before moving back onto weights and so on?

[BarrytheSuperScot]

I'll copy/paste the rest of my email now I guess as there's a few things left.

I was thinking about going for a jog every morning from now on to work on my cv and then doing my crunches, pushups and pullups (although I'll need to find somewhere to do this, don't have a bar anywhere around the house, might get a doorframe one for this) afterwards, so would you suggest to do this before or after breakfast?

How can I get a good tan during the winter to show off my muscles? I live in an apartment, so I can't just go out and lay naked in my backyard like I used to. There is the option of going to a tanning salon, but that's rather embarassing, because I am a guy lol. I want a good tan everywhere, with no tan lines around my butt or arms ^^ can you like buy blacklights that you can install in your room? Or should I go in the middle of nowhere and take off my clothes? LOL just curious plz suggest.
