Healthy eating and lifestyle

[Enjoying life]

Can always find a used bike cheap on Kijiji, eBay, etc. It doesn't have to be new. I'd recommend either a hybrid (what I have) or a road bike.

Last summer, I was doing 25km on bike everyday. Was a great way of losing weight. Honestly, it doesn't even feel like work...it's more fun than anything.

Brisk walking with jogging 5 days a week with building muscle and eating a lot of antioxidants really works for me

I don't have a bike. I try to walk (fast walk, not slow pace) but at some point it get tiresome to see the same small town everytime. I often joke around with peoples that in my town you can go 1 town limit to the other on foot. Its that small. Otherwise i would like team sports but im not sure how to get in them and i don't have any friends to "casually do them".

You could buy a walking pad with an incline (15%). They are not too expensive. Set it in front of the TV and walk away. 30-45 minutes at an incline will burn more calories than just walking. That is if you're tired of seeing the same neighborhood. It is also great during winter

As long as he doesn't go for one of those damn electric bikes. Thinking they're out there exercising while barely moving their legs lol.

@Halloween Mike I am very late to the conversation but I have great experience with bad genetics while maintaining a decent shape. I have to be careful going to the gym because I can bulk really fast and that's not what I am looking for.

90% of this is diet and your diet need improvement a lot if you want to shred. But it is hard and I am struggling between diet and being able to enjoy life. I hate vegetables and my favorite activity is social drinking. I did the keto diet which works a lot but you need to be careful because it can lead to health problems. So I am doing diet in 2 phases : Maintain and shred. Shred mode is mostly like Keto or Ducan . Mostly meat, eggs, chicken, turkey bacon... protein with a little bit of the rest like rice, greek salad, low fat cheese. I am doing this 1 - 2 months max at the time because you can overload your liver. You need to drink more water on this too.

Crave... -> Depends which one but not a lot. Could be okay in "maintain mode"
Jonathan Garnier... --> I don't really know this
Chicken Wraps (just not every day). Depends which. Tim Hortons stuff sucks.
Healthy choice. --> No clue but sounds not too bad.
Submarines from store. --> Avoid as much as possible
Chicken breast or "sliced" to cook --> Amazing
"Steak haché" either in tacos or as hamburger --> hmm, avoid hamburger. That's a struggle. Hamburger is my favorite meal.
Ocasionally regular steak. --> Amazing. Eat more in shred mode but limit in maintain mode.
Chunky soups --> Avoid
Chef boyardi pasta --> Avoid
Pizza ocasionally --> Avoid

In shred mode, I don't buy bread for 2-3 weeks. It is very hard because western civilization has been relying on this for centuries but look at Japan. Barely no fat people there... They barely eat bread from what I have been told. I replace that with meat.

I am not a professional. This is just my life experience as an endomorph mid 40s guy working on a desk jobs or sales rep jobs eating at restaurants with customers. If that's something you think can help you and / or need advice, feel free to PM me.

Best of luck and take care.
