First thing, I want to welcome you to the forum! Most people here are very helpful and experienced, so you have found the right place. This is going to be hard for you since most your friends won't understand what your doing or be supportive. Also, your family may not be supportive. No worries, WE WILL ALL SUPPORT YOU! Anytime you need some encouragement or advice, get your butt on here. Come here daily if you need to and read all the forum posts you can. This will help you keep your focus and head in the game. In the past, I have tried to do what your doing, unsuccessfully. The support group I have found here in this forum is what has me succeeding this time.
OK, enough of that. You are pretty young and you are still growing. Make sure that you focus on proper technique when lifting and that you don't do too much too quick. Be patient. This will happen for you if you stay focused and motivated, but not overnight. READ THIS (very good info): Advice for Teen Bodybuilders/Lifters You need to concentrate on eating clean (no fast-food, no soda, no candy). Tell your parents what you are doing and that you need help. Since they most likely do all the shopping and most of the cooking, you will need to explain to the what you are doing and why. That you need to eat lots of proteins (chicken, fish, steak...), veggies (anything green is sooo good for you.), healthy carbs (brown rice, whole grain bread, sweet potatoes, Quaker rolled oats). Maybe they will even take a que from you and start to eat healthier themselves. I found some more articles that you should read. This guy has tons of info and gave it away freely to us where he charges his clients thousandes of dollars for it. He got banned from here, but luckily, his info is still available. Principles of Training - Must READ/KNOW... Lifts You SHOULD Be Doing... Something I wrote a long time ago about bodyparts and lifting. Finally, while eating is paramount to your success, cardio is how you are going to burn off the body fat you have. If you hate running, that is just fine, don't do it. There are many different ways to do cardio. Swimming. Bike. Racquet Ball. Eliptical Trainer. Those are just a few off the top of my head. Try to do 30 minutes 3-4 times a week. Mix it up and have some fun with it. Take a good multi-vitamin daily and Fish Oil. Don't worry about taking any other supplements yet. Not even Creatine. Wait until you are experienced and a couple years older. Good luck and write back often.

Amazing post, Ryan. +Rep.
As far as not having any equipment to workout with... you have the only one you really need: your body. RIght now, you have 195.81lbs of weights to play around with. Here are some links to some bodyweight exercises and routines. The second link has the suggested routines as well as a descriptions page for the workouts. Death by Bodyweight Commando Routine With any fat loss plan, cardio should be the staple of your activity. Start small with the cardio. Jog a .25th mile or one lap around a high school track. After a day or two, push it up to .50th mile. The not-so-secret is just to constantly push yourself. If something becomes easier, savor your improvement but don't enjoy the easiness - find a way to make it harder. Your body only benefits from working harder than it did the time before. Best of luck to you and keep us up to date. Last edited by Gill; 03-02-2008 at 02:17 PM.

But eventually, you'll need to get yourself to a gym where you can get more weight. Since your Asian, you need to eat Proteins, healthy fats and healthy carbs. But only if your trying to lose weight, and eat healthy.

Do they have a weight room at school?
Check out Body for Life (it's a book by Bill Philips). Gives good advice on nutrition and exercise. I dropped 20+ pounds in a few months, and my wife lost even more weight. You even get to cheat one day a week and the weight still comes off. I was never so ripped as at the end of that 12 weeks.

 just realized i deleted it...but i wanna no a few more things. -what section do i have to work on -would a football body be satisfactory to a wrestler's body? Diet Plan: breakfast- just toast and water and maybe an egg lunch- chicken sandwich/ or the special dinner- grilled chicken, meat, or fish...or maybe even brown rice since i'm asian and all. Workout: well..the conflict between my tae kwon do classes and my workout is in the way. but i worked it out...i've made my TKD classes only 45 minutes out of 90 minutes..so when i get home, right away i'm going to start: pushups- 5 sets of 10..with rests burpees- 2 sets of 10 squats with 15 pound dumbells (idk a certain amount i should do) get to the bicep curls (2 sets of 25) and enjoy a good protein shake..

Heavy weight training is an excellent way to lose weight. Not only do heavy, intense weight lifting sessions burn heaps of calories but the muscle you put on burns calories even when you're sitting on your couch watching television. If I were you I'd invest most of my time in heavy lifting and get into sprint training once you've built up a semi-decent cardio base. I don't know much about American football but I do know if you want to be fast you're going to have to do a fair chunk of running...
Edit... I'm not suggesting you do all these, but just to give you an idea of how much a person can do with a set of dumbbells, here are a few dumbbell exercises off the top of my head: Lateral Raises Shoulder Press Upright Row Dumbbell Bench Press Incline Dumbbell Bench Press Decline Dumbbell Bench Press Bench Flies Tricep Kickbacks Tricep Extensions Dumbbell Rows Bent-Over Flies Hammer Curls Concentration Curls Conventional Curls Lunges Squats (Personally, I think that barbell sqauts are the only way to go with squats but whatever) Calf Raises Last edited by SunnyInc.; 03-12-2008 at 05:55 AM.
