Trying To Lose Weight

[BrooklynBomber]

At 15 you should NOT be dieting with your physique. I don't believe that you should be dieting at 40 with your physique.

Eat. Train. Run. Lift. Eat more. If you get big and strong, then so much the better; there is great satisfaction to be taken in knocking your opponents through walls.

And FWIW, I once heard a girl talking about a guy I know who is 6'2 and 145-150.

She said sleeping with him was, and I quote: "Like ****ing a bag of antlers."

Eat. If not for yourself, do it for the chicks.

Karma worthy.


Seriously, when I boxed I used to diet and that gave me nothing but problems with kidneys and overall **** health.

I'm not looking to get bulky, if I was i'd start lifting now but I'd rather wait til I get back down to my original weight and it's class.

At your age, your body isn't done forming, yet. It's not even close. Unless you're obese (or dangerously thin), you shouldn't be concerned about your weight at your age. Your fighting weight is going to change radically over the next five years. Stay healthy, and sit back and enjoy the ride.

EDIT: Your ideal weight will continue to change all your life: I'm now 36, and in fighting trim -- 5:15 mile, 54 pushups in a minute, good for 3 rounds full-speed -- I'm FIFTY pounds heavier than I was in my glory days as a varsity defensive back. And I'm only 5'9".

And also, there's no reason that lifting has to make you bulky. The right lifting regimen can make you immensely strong while keeping you thin and limber. Ask your coach. If he doesn't think so, ask another coach.
