only weightlifting

This topic may have been addressed here already but I couldn't find it. Due to my knees and now a foot condition' date=' the treadmill and bike are too painful. Do youthink it is possible to get an all over workout with just lifting weights? Will circuit training do the job? I think I may also be motivated to workout if I stick to lifting. I was getting bored with the bike so avoiding the gym. Now my foot is acting up. My work involves being on my feet on cement floors for 8 hours which may have some impact on my motivation to jump on the bike or treadmill.[/quote']

Did you consider swimming in addition to the weight lifting?

If you were a hot chick I'd send you one.

I had it made at cafepress.com

They custom make t shirts and they do single shirts.

I seldom do cardio anymore. I do weight lifting 3-5 days a week. It is what is going to shape my body the way I want it to be. And' date=' as Fiddleman mentioned already, I eat based on my TDEE less a 10% deficit. Right now, that has me at about 1650 calories a day. When I lift weights, I increase my caloric intake, mainly through high Protein foods. It took me close to twelve weeks to reset my metabolism, and it was completely worth it.

That's it too... Sculpting is going to come from weight training. Whatever gets you in the gym working your body, DO IT!
