Tabata intervals on an airbike. Don't even fucking reply until you have burned 100 cals doing this. Then, you may post how long it took you.

"Weighted vests" are gay. Get a plate carrier and work out with your ceramic plates in it. It's practical, gets you accustomed to moving around in your plate carrier, and will prepare you for the race war.
Jayden Smith
Yes. It is
I eat almonds as snacks and filler food. If my lunch or dinner is larger than expected, I simply dont eat almonds to compensate.
You are essentially doing rucking with low weight. You should not put anything on your ankles or wrists as they will mess up your joints. I don't believe rucking is purposeful for any fitness goal. It is something you would want to get good at only if you are a porter or in the military. It is not efficient for weightloss given its capacity for injury. The guy who owns gymnastic bodies permantly fucked his hip up with rucking training

Try running after weights, your metabolism will be able to burn the excess weight.
Even weight will help, weighted lunges will save your joints more than even weight.
I personally found that limiting myself to a set speed for a set amount of time was pointless. I used to do 1 1/2 miles at maximum speed, then finish with a 2 1/2 mile run at a moderate pace.
How tall are you? Cos 77kg isn't a lot.

>Came up with the following: >1) weighted vest (20lbs) >Even weight distribution is key to NOT fucking up joints. >2) ankle straps >3) 5lb hand weights w/ thick grips. >I'm against ankle weights because they fuck up your knees/joints.
I did five years in the military and I've seen a number of soldiers do what you are about to attempt only to injury themselves. If you want to carry weights go do strength training and farmer carry a lot of weight a short distance. If you want to do cardio don't start strapping weights to yourself.
TL;DR: Row you dumb faggot.

Why not just buying a good camping backpack and an army chest rig and load it up with all kinds of tools, a tent etc and go hiking/camping for a few days. Also incorporate a few quick paced marches in there, maybe even sprints.
Zachary Perez
I don't want to do rucking in particular. This minor additions are to supplement existing time boxed cardio (30mins).
The 20lb vest is more to replace the 20lbs I've lost since starting.
5lb hand weights with thick grips are to passively increase grip/forearm strength while running (freebie/bonus)
Ankle straps are for replacement for hip abduction and extra quad engagement.
Sebastian Allen
Dont have time.
I actually have a state recreation area for hiking within a mile of my house. But typically closed by time I'm out of work.
I spend 1.5-2hr at gym during weekday or 2-3hrs at gym on weekend.
I dont understand how wearing a 20lb vest to replace 20lbs I lost in past 4 months will hurt myself. I did ankle weights on leg when running when younger almost a decade and a half ago and ended up with painful knees for a while. No way am i trying that now that I'm +30.
Figure hand weights would be safe.
I dont want to do heavy hand weights because that will fuck up elbows and shoulders.
Once again, this is supposed to be complimenting existing cardio.
Ian Turner
All of these benefits you mention are feasible but that it would offer substantial benefit over unweighted versions is questionable. I could see how ankle weights would be good for hip abduction exercises but I also believe resistance bands are better for that. They wouldn't do anything for your quads this is clear from the anatomical function of the quads. >The 20lb vest is more to replace the 20lbs I've lost since starting. If your goal is to burn calories then your goal is heart rate x time. You can achieve a higher heart rate by just running/doing cardio faster. It does not even need to be much faster if you are out of shape. You should just invest in a heart rate monitor. Running with a weighted vest leads to injuries in the knees and ankles very frequently. It has a very bad reputation. SImply running with no weights already often leads to joint problems >5lb hand weights with thick grips are to passively increase grip/forearm strength while running (freebie/bonus) It will also make your gait unnatural and exhaust the lifespan of your shoulder unnescessarily. I am not a person against doing things outside of the box but in my knowledge these are not good ideas that you are pursuing.
Gavin Harris
My heart rate monitor (galaxy watch) only goes up to 220bpm because that's max recommended heart rate for humans.
My HIIT usually has me maxed out the entire duration. I only take breaks to let lactic acid pain in legs go away a bit.
I do 12mph at 10 incline for as long as I can (~2min). Followed by ~3min of walking 4mph at 15 incline. Repeat for 30 mins.
Ok well good luck. I don't know if you already said something about this but do not do any kind of high impact exercise (HIIT) with any of your weights on. That is without question a certain path to injury.
Eli Ward
Yeah. My plan is to basically restart my cardio at walking 3.5mph 0 incline until I am not sore anymore. Gradually add in a 5.5mph jog to test things out.
I learned pretty fast to take it slow. Shin splints kept knocking me off of treadmill for weeks at a time initially because I was pushing it harder than legs could support.
Jacob Green
Consider plantar flexion stretches to help with your shin splints. In general people highly underestimate how delicate walking and running mechanics are and the mobility required to stay healthy long term when participating in exercises relating to them. If your dorsoflexion is poor, posture poor, pelvis unaligned, scolioscis etc these can cause issues. But in particular shin splints is extremely common and doing some plantar flexion exercises and stretches will help.

I replaced my orthopedic "athletic shoes" with actual running shoes.
My old shoes feel stiff as a board by comparison and I was definitely stomping/landing heel first. I've started landing on balls of feet and dont have shin splints and get more power out of run now.
Barefoot running mechanics necessitate that you land on your midfoot not the ball of the foot or your heel. However to be honest you can get away with more with a good pair of shoes so if you land on the balls of your feet and your achilles tendon still works by all means proceed
