Re: The Fitness Thread
I generally go for 1.5 - 2 gallons, so you'll be fine.

Re: The Fitness Thread
I wasn't too sure whether I should post here or not... Anyway, this is me, before I had dengue nearly a month ago and lost 10 or so pounds:
21 years old, 5'8", 190 pounds at the time I took the picture. I'm still struggling to get those pounds back because the dengue affected my liver and I couldn't use my supplements for a month or so (let alone train for the first weeks).

Re: The Fitness Thread
In what way did it mess with your liver?

Re: The Fitness Thread
It seems the liver is the main organ the dengue virus infects to reproduce itself, or something like that. My transaminases were sky-high in some of the exams (over 10 times the normal values), and the doctors said the supplements I take probably aggravated that case.
It's more detailed here: http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?pid=...pt=sci_arttext I think this was the worst infection I've had in my entire life. There were moments I was so dehydrated I nearly passed out, too.

Re: The Fitness Thread
I love how at least 3 of you are talking about smoking up before workouts. This actually helps! I thought I was the only one (and slightly crazy for being a productive stoner) But I would get baked, throw on an Album and go at 'er. I work out at home. Which leads me to my questions.
Right now I'm sitting at 140lbs on a good day, and I'm 5'4''. I've not weighed myself in the last 2 weeks because I have been through some hella stress and I have likely gained weight. I have a bad back. What are some leg exercises I could do to help tone my thighs? And how can I work out my arms with these rubber bands I've got without straining my back? I can't do weights right now. I don't want to lose a lot of weight -- Just want to tone my belly and legs, and build muscle in my upper body.

For building muscle I think I can help you out, considering I'm in your situation with the back problems. With your back problems, you won't be able to backsquat, but you will be able to front squat, and that is incredibly important if you want nice legs. Besides that, you can do weighted lunges, step ups, etc. For ab work, what I recommend to everyone is Ab-Ripper X from P90x. You can do it in the privacy of your home, and it's fucking brutal. For arms, use those bands to do tricep push-downs, bicep curls, face pulls, lateral raises, etc. For the lateral raises and bicep curls, you should just be able to put the band under your feet and then just do the exercise as you would with a barbell/dumbbells. For the tricep push-downs and face pulls, just look for something at the gym to put the band around to make it work. Realistically though, even with your back, there should be no reason you can't use dumbbells or cables.

How long should I work out for? Currently I just try and go for 30-40 minutes for 3-4 days and take a break on an off day. I was losing weight but because of getting evacuated from my home due to flooding and preparing to move, the only calories I'm burning are at work and while I'm packing. Should I drop the time but do more intensity?

A good weight for your frame is impossible to know without seeing what you look like, but you could certainly start with a goal of losing 15 lbs. I would just make sure you're focusing a lot of your workout time to resistance training, either by using weights or by doing bodyweight exercises. If you want to 'tone' your tummy you do not want to do exclusively cardio. The precise amount of time you spend working out though doesn't really matter; however long you feel you need to workout to get a good workout and lose weight is what you should be doing, and that's going to vary depending on your body type etc. 30-60 minutes is usually a good workout time though.
