My target goal (and what the doctor says) is to be at 160 lbs, maybe slightly less. How should I lose weight, and what techniques should I use?

Currently, I’m doing some sit-ups, lifting weights, squats, walking on the treadmill, and go outside, just to shoot solo shots.

Hi!

Losing weight is never an easy thing, but you need some activities that are "cardiovascular". This means that you need to do some activities that will make your heart beat faster and make you sweat a little, too. Walking on the treadmill is great for that. You should do maybe 30 minutes a day if you can and you will see yourself begin to lose weight.

If you like to dance, run, walk outdoors, play tennis or something else like that, that would be a good substitute if you get bored with the treadmill. You can switch off and do a different activity on different days. Be sure to do something you like to do, though because it will help you keep interested in your goal longer.

Weights and squats are good for muscle strength which is also important in keeping strong healthy muscles and bones. Many people overlook this part. Try to do at least 10 minutes of this each day or 20 minutes every other day.

Don’t skip meals even though you may be tempted to. This will mess your body up and it will "fight" to retain your extra weight if it begins to think it is being starved. This is called "resistance" and it can be an awful thing to overcome when trying to lose weight. Losing weight this way will only slow down the process and when you do lose weight you won’t be able to keep it off.

Add more fruit and veggies to your diet and cut out the soda pop, juice, candy, other sweets and anything fried. I know this is really, really hard. You should have some of that stuff once in a little while, but try to get that yummy-yucky stuff out of your diet while trying to lose weight.

I don’t know that shooting (do you mean skeet or clay shots?) is really an exercise or that it will contribute to your goal.

Good luck and remember to do things you like!

Hate to break it to you,but it won’t happen,not even with steroids.The best you can do is join your local gym and start a good weight lifting program.The thing most people forget is that the way you eat is just as important as your lifting program.Last but not least when you start lifting you need to hang in there,remember Rome wasn’t built in a day.Good luck.

Any real martial arts will do you better that any other workout. Try Krav Maga. Karate, the way it is taught in US, is no good.

I don ‘t have really good stamina or energy, and not a lot of physical strength. Are there any exercises or workouts that someone like me can easily do to lose a few pounds?

swimming is execellent exercise and it won’t put any strain on your bones. if you can’t swim, just exercising in the pool will definitely help.
