20 pounds in 6 weeks? Sounds like a bit of it is water weight, make sure to drink plenty of water after the cardio if you aren’t already bud
Well it is more like 17 pounds, I rounded up. I do drink a lot of water every day. I was 255 so controlling the calories just cut out the excess. I had some pounds to lose!20 pounds in 6 weeks?

Thanks! Yup. I was surprised too. Totally works.You'd be shocked at what a caloric deficit can do, nice work Poseidon
I'm eating 3-4 meals a day and still look like a twig haha, must enjoy my youth while it lasts. I was tubby at one point but running and sports fixed that. Even a 2 month hiatus after serious injury only added about 3lbs. Teenage bodies are most unusual.Thanks! Yup. I was surprised too. Totally works.
Lol. In the uk when you reach a certain age you get a letter from the NHS to go for a thorough check up, it's a good few years since I went for mine. I remember when the nurse took my pulse she was quite surprised because it was very strong but really slow. She explained to me that usually only athletes and very fit people have such numbers. She asked if I was very active and at that time I was doing between 100-150 miles a week on my bike. She said well that explains it then, keep it up. I'm still cycling a lot but no where near as much as I used to and my running is very sporadic because even with quality running shoes your joints really take a hammering, especially road running, and at my age.You sure you're not a zombie? Obviously my fitness still has a ways to go, I usually hover in the low 60s, or down to 50s if I'm very relaxed. It's rare to see people past 50 being properly fit, well done!
That volume of cycling will definitely kick one into shape! I can understand the running issues, I'm currently clocking a measly 10 miles a week while my joints are still young.Lol.

Just for info one of the lowest resting heart rates ever recorded was of the Spanish professional cyclist Miguel indurain, five times tour de France winner. He had a resting heart rate as low as mid 20's!!!
Now that is zombie territory lol.
