i do pilates, and other ab routines about 2-3 times a day and eat normal meals...wtf?
Answer:
Maybe you should try cutting your carbs in half for breakfast and lunch. As for dinner try cutting out most if not all carbs. Do all this with the exercise for AT LEAST 3 weeks. You should (not guaranteeing) be able to see some minor results.
maybe u eat too much or exercise a little to lesss
Maybe you're pregnant.
ask your doctor to see watz goin on
Eat smaller meals more frequent.
WTF? It depends on what you consider "eating normally?"Any junk food? Any fast food? Sodas? How big are your portions? 99.9% of all people eat TOO MUCH at each meal, but think it's normal.Take a serious look at your food intake.
you need to eat smaller meals and eat more often, rather than eating 3 squares a day
I know same here! I eat healthy and exercise and I still don't look any different! AH
check your inches not your weight. you could be gaining more muscle mass which weighs more than fat
That is probably muscle weight. Muscle weighs more than fat and it won't hurt you like fat will.
That's not CARDIO- I do pilates and lift weights, but the only way to lose weight it to get on that treadmill or elliptical, if you aren't breaking a good sweat and getting your heart rate up you aren't losing much.Pilates is good for people who just want to tone really.
Well, as someone gets older, there hormones start to kick in. Look at your family- are they a bit chubbier than you are? It's in their genes. It's probably in yours too.And I doubt your gaining too much weight. You're probably self-concious.
Pilates and ab routines may not be burning enough calories. You haven't mentioned much about these "normal" meals, but the only way to lose weight is to cut calories. If you haven't changed what you're eating, and only doing low-impact exercises, it's not suprising that you're still gaining weight. Cut down the calories in your foodstuff.
it could just be muscle weight not fat when you excercise a lot your fat turns to solid muscle and the scales say you have gained weight but really you are the same or less but toned curvy and nice hope this helps
It is possible that you are converting fat into muscle,because muscle weighs more than fat,but takes up less room in the body.
The fit of your pants should serve more as a guide than what registers on the scale.
You need more healthy meals e.g. salad. It could also be an illness or it might be stress, if you are concerned see a doctor, good luck
You are probably burning fat and increasing muscle. That's good. Just keep in mind, muscle is heavier than fat. More muscle also make it easier to lose fat. You should see results in a few weeks. If not, there may be another issue.
There are 3 different body types.
ECTOMORPH: This type would seem to consist of every man who ever played in the NBA, minus Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’Neal. Ectomorphs are generally lean and mean but have a hard time packing on the muscle.Thus, the best way to deal with such stingy genetics is to eat, eat, and eat some more. Adding an extra thousand or two calories is not only acceptable, it’s probably encouraged. Five substantial meals a day, favoring the carbohydrates heavily while consuming ample amounts of protein, is the best way to sprout growth into the muscle mass you’re looking for.When it comes to the weights, do not be stingy. Intensity plus strength equals size, and you should be churning out intensely productive sets, designed to tear up the muscle tissue and spurt new growth. ENDOMORPH: Now, take every offensive and defensive lineman in the NFL (minus nobody) and you’ll have yourself a nice collection of endomorphs.Endomorphs are generally what most people consider “stocky” creatures, many of them having short but thick, thick limbs and heavy bones. Many endomorphs desire a leaner, more defined look, and should try cutting the fats down to a minimum. Lean protein sources are generally recommended here, anything from fish and turkey to egg whites. Meanwhile, an endomorph’s intake should consist of about seven smaller-portioned meals throughout the day, a sly method of boosting metabolism and burning fats and calories.Cardiovascular regimens – anything from swimming to biking – is essential for endomorphs looking to trim down. Thirty minutes per day, four days a week, will keep the jelly out of the belly. Meanwhile, weight training should contain sets of several repetitions at a moderate weight, with limited time spent between sets. MESOMORPH: Mesomorphs, in one sense, are the luckiest of the three. Mesomorphs have the tendency to be muscular and ripped, maintaining the best attributes of both the ectomorphs and the endomorphs.Mesomorphs must basically follow the general guidelines of healthy eating and exercise to maintain the desirable physiques that they’re genetics have so kindly blessed them with. A mesomorph should consume a gram of protein a day for every pound of his or her bodyweight, while taking in around six frequent meals per day. Perhaps the most imposing obstacle for the mesomorph is overconfidence. Because a mesomorph can generally build muscle and shed away fat with considerable ease, he often becomes lazy and apathetic to eating binges and lulls in exercise, maintaining faith that his favorable genetics will bail him out of such consequences. Like anyone else, a mesomorph must blend a sturdy diet and solid exercise program into his everyday routine.
If you're a preteen you're just going through puberty. Height increases... weight increases... the usual.If you're not, it depends on what food you're eating that you consider "normal". Like, salmon, for example. Everyone says it's good for you because it's got omega, and it's FISH so it's automatically assumed healthy, but there is some amount of fat in it so be careful not to eat too much. Check the portions of food you're eating as well.If neither of these really apply... then you should check up with a nutritionist I guess. Good luck :)
Perhaps you should reexamine what a "normal" meal is. A serving size for a piece of meat is about the size of a deck of cards. A serving of fruit is 1/2 of a whole fruit. The usda website has some great guidelines if this is where you are having trouble.
Depending on your age, your weight gain may be normal. If you are under the age of 20, expect some weight gain.
Pilates builds muscle and muscle weighs more than fat, which could be why you are gaining weight. Doing too much weight training also causes water retention. Try doing pilates every other day and a walk or jog on alternate days.
Maybe you don't count what you drink, as calories? Or you eat to many sweets? Or it's a long shot , you might have a sluggish thyroid?
its propbaly just muscle
or maybey even water water from when u excersise and drink all that water
I noticed a few weeks back when i started a really bad job and got stressed out i gained 5 pounds.I was eating less and working,but still gained. I quit and its been 4 days, i'm back to normal again. So if your stressed out about something maybe thats why ? Could it be that the pressure of trying to workout and diet is actually making you gain weight?
