Allo mate.

Regular cardio + weights + removal of junk is the basic answer.

Eat every 3 hours, a good mix of protein, carbs and good fats, then work really hard in the gym and it will go.

You will more than likely need to get some Whey Protein to up your protein intake.

Hope that helps.

i dont really have a diet im trying not to have as many calories...at the min i work out on my punchbag for about an hour and then i cycle for half hour after that i do my stomach crunches and my weights arm curls shoulders etc... and my job is im a chef thanx............

now that is your first problem if you restrict your calories to much your body will hole onto all of the fat you have and start to eat muscle as a way of surviving...so you need to eat something every 2-3hrs that contains protein and decent carbs being a chef this should not be an issue.

Your training is Topsy turvy i would start with a 10min punchbag warm up then do the weights probably whole body workout 3 times a week then finish with 30min on the bike....

but to be honest you have only been training for 3 weeks this is nothing give yourself time to grow....remember the more muscle you have the less fat you will hold as your metabolism will be higher so eat...

Take a look at the extreme nutrition website they do a good MRP drink and protein blend drink and being a board member you get 25% of retail price
