Hi guys,

First of all, this forum is awesome, and I am so glad that I found it!! Everybody here is so supportive!

I needed some advice on whether my workout/diet planning is satisfactory, of if I need any changes.

I am 200 pounds and 5'10".

Here is a sample of my workout:
Mon - Jog 3 miles; Bench 3x As much as I can (light weights); Curl 3x As much as I can (light weights);
Tues - Jog 3 miles; 3x33 Squats (No weights)
Wed - HIIT for 20 min; Jog 1~2 miles; Bench 3x As much as I can; Curl 3x As much as I can
Thursday - Rest
Friday - REPEAT

WITHOUT HIIT sessions, I've lost 15 pounds, but hit a plateau. Hopefully, adding HIIT will help me shed more pounds? Please, any comments and criticism is MUCH welcomed!! Thanks you guys!

why are you using light weights?

What do you consider HIIT?

And what's your meal plan look like?

I'd spend some time reading the stickied threads in the exercise forum - your strenght training needs work... you've got no virtually lower body work and bench presses and curls aren't really working enough different muscles

I dont really care about gaining strength... I thought that light weights with more repetitions = more cut? (TOTALLY MY OWN IGNORANT OPINION)

As for HIIT, I run as fast as I can as if a Lion was chasing me for 15 seconds, then jog lightly for 1 minute, then repeat. So far, I only lasted about 8 intervals.

As for my meal plan, I didn't put it in here becasue this was the "Weight loss through exercise" forum, and didn't want to get flamed, BUT, my diet =

Breakfast = Half of Peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a banana (About 250 Calories)
Snack = Healthy Choice Soup (Around 180 calories)
Lunch = 6 inch Chicken sub from subway (No junk condiemnts)(Around 400 calories?)
Snack = Either a protein bar, protein shake, or granola bar (200 calories)
Dinner = Either a protein shake, chicken, steak, or I finish the other half of my sandwich(200 ~ 500 calories)

I try to limit myself to around 1500~1800 calories a day.

I do read the stickies, and I try to incorporate what i read to my workouts, but since I dont' have access to a gym, I can only weighttrain with the current weights and equipment I have now. I WISH i could weight train my legs, but my only alternative is to do those 100 squats and lunges w/o weights.

Am I doomed for failure?

Ok, I'm an idiot...
"-Crap about people having some type of muscle fibre that means they should lift high rep/light weight "

So I guess more reps of lighter weight is a stupid theory...
