Your fat friend has likely been inactive for years. He will be able to make progress for the first few months doing just about any type of weight training. Put him on machines doing 10-12 reps and have him take a walk each day. He’ll be able to gain muscle and lose fat doing this.
Since you really don’t know anything, just follow one of those circuit training programs they have at your gym. You should have a bunch of machines of the same colors with different numbers on them if you train at a commercial gym. Just start off that way for 3 months.
What’s more important is that you get your friend to SHOW UP. If he does nothing more than show up to the gym for an hour, 3 times a week, he’ll make progress.
Again, starting off, making progress is easy - too easy, actually. It’s the showing up part that is hard for most to do.
If your friend shows up for 3 months and does the circuit training program noted above, then ask for a follow-up.
See you in three months.[/quote]

ok im a big fan of the super hero workout currently about to start the second phase, ive already dropped a bit of body fat and had good increase in strength.
I used to be about the same as him now i’d say im around 18% bodyfat, coming from where he is, he will lose weight pretty much doing whatever however it’s probably best too get him on a clean diet or low carb for three days then a carb up day where he’s allowed pasta and WHOLE GRAIN OR WHEAT bread.
but the key i’ve found for good weight loss is supersets, [/quote]
Thank you.
I am on low carb(less then 35g)
I should suggest him to do it too. I think he mgiht just loss fat doing this…

yea i agree with muscle building to burn fat - when i first started i was a pretty chunky fuck - 165/170 - five foot 11 with a body fat way above 25 … in about a year i was about 180 - at 20percent - and in the last year i went to 195 at 13percent … your fat doesnt turn into muscle, but the more muscle you build the more fat you burn i kept my rep range at 8 to 12 reps for the first year - built a base to progress upon - have been getting bigger and leaner ever since
building muscle and leanrning how to diet to your bodies needs will teach you so much bud …
like arnold said, your body is one big research experiement, you have to test it to the limits to learn what works for you …[/quote]
