Started a workout routine at Gym about 3 weeks ago, I have a few questions:?

[joer]

I go 3 times a week, for about an hour each time

1) how long before i start to see results

2) is it true that i might not see a weight loss for a wile, because im gaining muscle?

Yes, it is true. You lose fat and you gain muscle. Muscle is heavier than fat. You should aim for a sepcific workout routine, so you don't linger and look lost in the gym. Since trainers are very expesnsive, you might try:

I advise following:

Answer following: 1.- Do you want to have a hard, lean body? Or 2.- Do you want to be skinny with wobbly bits here and there (and see them grow into respectable (and frightening) love handles as time passes by)?

I know a girl: 5'5 - 140 lbs - size 2.
I know another girl who is 5'5 - 140 lbs - size 9
The difference: one is overweight and doesn?t exercise; the other one is a girl who exercises and has muscles.

There is no fast, easy, miraculous way to lose weight. And whoever tells you otherwise, is lying.

It's about the right time to start getting healthy habits (if you don?t acquire them at a young age, chances are you won?t be missing them later). I, for one, would start running. It doesn't cost money and you will burn fat.

Maybe you also want to know that you don't want to lose muscle (which is a lot heavier than fat, but compact and, therefore, makes your body look lean and hard). You want to lose fat.

In order to lose 1lbs of fat, you have to burn 3500 calories. If you diet with no exercise, you will not only lose fat, but also muscle. Muscle, on the other hand, is what makes your metabolism fast. So, if you lose muscle, you slow down your metabolism. When you gain weight (and, believe me, you will gain weight) you will gain more fat than muscle (which you would only gain if you exercise).

The best thing to do, at your young age, is resistance training. Check following links: Remember: YOU WON'T BULK UP (like guys do) BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE a guy?s level of TESTOSTERONE (masculine hormone)!!!

BTW, EXERCISE CONTROLS YOUR HUNGER. You should also eat 6 small meals a day; one every 2.5 (maximum 3) hrs.!!! This will control your sugar levels, therefore, you won't be binging!!!

It is very important that you understand: it's not about starving your body! Your body NEEDS food, but good-quality-food! Good-quality-food it?s important for your muscles!!! If you don?t have a balanced diet and you over-exercise, you will lose precious fat-burning muscle!!!! You can check a healthy nutritious diet @ www.bodyforlife.com!!!

Remember, you should exercise at least 1 hr/day, 5 days/week, and rest 2 full days so your muscles can recover and grow. Use 3 days to work on your muscles and 2 for cardio. Always let 1 day between your muscle?s workout.

Another tip: DON?T weigh yourself. You should never trust a scale, if you want to lose fat, but not muscle (your fat burning machine). Instead, keep track of how your pants fit, and measure your weigh loss by how smaller you?re getting according to the sizes you?re leaving behind!

If you have money, I would invest it on 2 workout programs:
1.- P90X
2. Chalean Extreme

Both amazing, believe me!!! And if you do them consistently, you'll look great!!! My daughter is almost as ripped as she wants to be. (I still have a lot to do, but the point is: GREAT!)

Weight loss was a permanent drag for me until I tried out acai berry. I know they say that pills do not work, nevertheless they definitely worked for me, and they've been featured on the Rachael Ray Show too. There is a free trial on currently at http://roricle.sinimmeuble.com, why not try it , what is the worst that could happen?

I own a gym and see a lot of people who come to the gym but just don`t
do much of anything. Get some help with a program or maybe get a trainer for a couple sessions.Don`t worry about your weight, be more concerned
about what you look like and feel

Answer to question 1: it varies! It depends on your diet and if your doing more cardio or weight training. If your doing more cardio it will take a little longer to see results. Weight training will show you more obvious results, if you work out a lot on your arms your biceps will bulge!.
Answer to question 2: If your working out to lose weight the healthy way to go about to keep the weight off is to mix cardio and weight training. For me, doing more cardio and a little less weight training helps me keep the weight off. It depends on your goals!

OK.......If you want to lose weight then DO NOT do a lot of weight lifting. If you work out at the gym for 1 hour, do 45 minutes of cardio and 15 minutes of weight lifting. TRUST ME.... I don't care what your trainer says cause he is wrong. If you do this and you eat right then you should see results in 2 or 3 weeks.
