sias Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 Good for you! Don't worry about the scale - go for the measurements and dress sizes. I'm up to 80kg from 76 since I started MTBing, but all my clothes fit the same, if not a bit more loosely - go figure...Long rides on weekends will burn fat, provided you keep within your "fat burning zone".
pastapouch Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 also be carefull with bread and crackers...
Bat-ass Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 Fully agree Edman - the whole BMI thing is a load of crap. Especially for us taller guys.If it is purely based on length and weight - its flawed. Your body fat % and muscle mass needs to be taken into account I agree aswell.. but you dont have to be tall for it to be scewed... im 5'9 ish and 76kg. my BMI i think is like 25?? which makes me borderling overweight? i carry little fat, and am not bulky muscular wise, but am strongly built.. i think the problem with BMI is muscle mass? if you carry a bit of muscle the scale is badly scewed..
sias Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 hahaha, shock horror my BMI is 25.2!!! My better half reckons I should stop riding because next time I lift my arms, I might just fall through my own a.shole!

Wyatt Earp Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 This is what most peeps think they should do. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XtxktcVHvGo/RmfLYpm8dGI/AAAAAAAAAAc/CXqqp_uDAEk/s200/chopper_desktop_A_1024x768.jpg My advice, spend some money on a good dietitian, let them get you to eat correctly, your body will transform and it would have been worth it.The hardest part is discipline.
