just to give you guys sum feed back....... I made my meals a bit smaller.(don't know calories cos i don't count them). I used the "big as your fist" portions and push my training time up with 10min. Looks like i broke the 118kg "block" and drop 3kg's sins i posted this last time. I am at 115kgs now and looks like i am going to drop sum more. and its staying there cos i could not train last week and did not pick up weight again. And i can see the CM dropping as well. Thanks for all your help guys. BIGVAN

Thanks will check it out.

Thanks guys! Lots of good tips here. Got my self a hart rate monitor last week and will keep the HR% in mind. My ride are getting longer but for a guy my sises it takes a wile 2 get the ride time up. And i just do MTB so ride time is shorter then road. But will get it up. The whey and glutamine i only take after a long ride. So its not a every day thing. Trust me it helps. Cos ever time i have a long ride my muscles hurt. And i was of the whey and glutamine for 2 weeks and my weight staid the same but my muscle recovery was very slow and i battled more and more with my rides.

Hello guy's As you can see by my nick name is Bigvan i am a big guy. 1.76tall but big build. When i started MTB in December i was about 125KG(stop smoking and travel a lot ,so lots of takeaway's) now i am about 118-17.5kgs. Its bin like that for the last 2 months. I am training about 3 to 4 rides a week 16km mountain biking and do light weights on my no ride days. I take glutamine for the acid and muscle recovery. Whey protein for after a hard ride or work out and take CLA cap's for tone and shape. I am on a lo G.I eating plan eat small meals five times a day if i can and lots of water.... about 2lts a day. So to get to the point..... Why am i not losing more weight? Is it cos i am building muscle mas or am i doing sum thing wrong?
