He doesn't have a hot body now?

Shouldn't you be more considered with loving how he is now instead of who you want him to be? Maybe we should find out if he thinks he would be awesome if he had a hot body.

I know, dump him, and go get someone with more muscles.

At new year he made a new years resolution to run a mile everyday and do 100 sit ups (all of his own accord I hasten to add - he just thought it would be a good idea to). Then a couple of days ago HE thought (though I immediately agreed ) "What the heck - maybe it wouldn't take too much on top of this to get defined abs! That'd be cool!"

I AM happy with him. It's a mutual thing. We both think it'd be cool.

I'll be down to 155lbs (6') by July for the Death Ride, but I'll be damned if I'm going to eat like an elite athlete to get below 5% bodyfat without getting paid to do it. It's no way to live unless it's literally how you make your living.

I eat some junk on occasion and my cholesterol is still 146, so here's to a Labatt's and some General Tso's. :cool:

Death Ride?
 
At 126 pounds, it sounds like he could slip through a crack in the floor. I mean seriously- that is extremely tiny. I would suggest along with pushups/situps/weight training, he eat MORE. a LOT more. Muscles need nutrients to exist, and the bigger his muscles are, the more food he will need to mantain them.

Though, I think I'd be shopping for a new girlfriend if a girl was trying to change me like that.

I wonder what you'd think if he said 'You know, I wish you were better looking.'
 
Christ, calm down chaps. No need to get on your moral high horses. "OMGWTF get a better looking boyfriend if that's what you want". :rolleyes:

She and he apparently want to do this, give her a break.

If I posted here asking how to get my GIRL-friend in shape I'd get absolutely roasted. What's with the double standard?

I had a girlfriend that tried to do this kind of thing to me once (at the time I was 6', 145, quite slim).. and you know what happened? I put on a lot of muscle, (I'm 185 lbs now) got a lot more self-confidence, and left her.

Be careful what you wish for. ;)

I think if she wanted to get firmer abs/less flabby arms/tighter arse like most girls do [yep, stereotyping again] and you were just asking for tips there wouldn't be any issues. Or if you wanted some tips on general health and fitness for the two of you.

Oh, I know, I will be careful what I wish for :)

EDIT: *pants for air* We just got back. 3 miles in 22 minutes...I think that's alright :)
 
While I don't have any advice for toning up your boyfriend, I will back you up. This appears to be something you and he would like, in that case its all good.

But I will second others, if *I* didn't want to change and I was with a girl who was not happy with the way I look (I am FAR from "hot" by society standards) I would tell her to find a better looking boyfriend.

Yeah yeah. Just saying. But honestly, to read the thread title, it's akin to 'Increasing my girlfriend's bust size - Tips'.
 
Ub, I guess my question is, if he doesn't gain any size, will you still be happy?

I guess to offer some practical advice, check out http://www.stumptuous.com/cms/index.php

This is a page with lots of advice for weight lifting -- don't be put off that it's a page written by a woman. She's stronger than 99% of the men you'll see at the gym, and so is anyone that follows her advice. You don't want to follow those guys advice anyways -- unless you want to sustain some serious injuries. She knows what she's doing! I followed plans set out by her and saw significant gains.

The old idea that you should do lots of exercises, every day, and lots of reps and sets doesn't really work for everyone. What I find works best is going mondays, wednesdays, and fridays, and doing a full-body routine consisting of 6 exercises. I only do a warm up set and then a work set. As well, I don't spend time doing isolation exercises. Movements that use lots of muscles at once. Squats are important! Too many exercises won't help, it has to be the right exercises.

Then, just rest on your days off. Cardio will take away from his weight gain results. And don't forget to EAT LOTS! I don't find a need to go insane tracking my meals, but just make sure to get lots of meat, and avoid junk food.

Also important is not lifting too much, and making sure you use correct form. If I can do 12 repititions of a movement, I will add about 5% of the weight onto it. If I can't even do 8 repititions, I know I'm lifting too much. To get bigger, I found I had to keep adding more and more, but only in very small increments.

It's difficult to adhere to these rules when you see big, steroid-dripping behemoths in the gym completely breaking them. However, if you have an idea about proper form, you will laugh at how horrible they actually are. You'll see the four or five guys or girls lifting impressive weights with good form, but they are the minority.

Hell, everyone has their own advice that totally contradicts everyone elses. (I'm sure mine does.) But you really have to just try things and see if they work. Why not start off trying what is easy? It worked for me.
 
Yes, of course I'll be happy if he doesn't gain any weight! I'm happy now. He's happy now! :)

It's a nice innocent challenge/effort for both of us (now). We'll just wait and see what happens.

Thanks for all the advice so far guys

Do you want your boyfriend to get ripped (i.e. well toned?) or would you want him to get bulky and strong?

The reason why I ask is because people here are giving you advice for both. What do you want?
 
I didn't mention it in my previous post, but for abs the best thing is high-knee exercises. They made us do them all the time at track practice and it can be strenuous. Basically run/jog as normal while lifting your knee almost to your chin. It's hard to do any distance in that way and you'll also look like an idiot, but it may be something you could try around the house every now and again.

She clearly stated in post #1 the goal was a six-pack. So bulking up and gaining weight, as has been suggested, would tend to push him in the opposite direction.

Ripped was the idea. I did notice there seemed to be some conflicting advice and thought that perhaps that was why.

Doing situps every day could actually be preventing him from getting a six pack.

Your abs are like any other muscle you train in that they need time to recover from exercise, normally 48 hrs.

If he does them every other day rather than every day, this will give them time to repair.

And as has already been mentioned, diet and 20+ mins cardio 3-4 times a week will help shift the covering layers.

Nah, whatever you think is probably wrong.

Getting abs stronger = 6 packs? Wrong.

To get 6 packs, you have to melt the fat away. The strongest biggest abs won't be a 6-pack if there's a film of fat over it, no matter what.

6-packs is ******** invented by today's society and the men on bodybuilding magazines.

I was 124 lbs, 5'10", ~4-5% bodyfat. I sure as hell have a 6-pack. Was I healthy or good-looking? Hell no.
 
Never had a 6-pack like in the pictures/movies.

However, I could take a full force martial art type punch in the gut. Always max'ed the Army's sit up test. Just didn't have the look. Guess my 6-pack was hiding. :)

As many have said, you need a low body fat content for the 6-pack to show if that's important. Personally, I've never understood the need unless you need it for your profession like a body builder like this:

tim-belknap.jpg

He is my friend's cousin. He's 5' 4" and weighs about 200 pounds in this picture. A diabetic who won a few body building awards a few years ago. :)

Back to the topic at hand, any physical activity that improves your stamina or strength is good for the body. :)
 
I'll make it simple.

Diet is everything, 1gram of Protein for every lb of bodyweight.

High Intensity Interval Training - Tell him to read up on it, it's quite simple and is proven more effective in keeping muscle mass while losing fat.

Weight training 3 days a week.

He follows those he will have his results. Dont get discouraged will take a few weeks before results, take a picture every week and you will see :)
